Rep. Barbara Lee (CPUSA – CA) has been endorsed for the Senate by the McClatchy newspapers and (probably) by the Daily Worker, but it’s not helping. How awful do you have to be in order to be running behind Rep. Katie Porter? So Rep. Lee is looking for attention by appealing to all the Castro lovers in California politics.
John Perazzo documents Rep. Barbara Lee’s latest stunt in her profile on Discover the Networks.
On January 18, 2024, Lee attended a hearing of the House Foreign Affairs Committee’s Western Hemisphere Subcommittee, which was discussing the topic of U.S.-Cuba relations. But when Lee, who was not a member of the subcommittee, tried to interrupt the proceedings with a rant calling for the full normalization of relations between the two countries, subcommittee chairwoman Maria Elvira Salazar (R-Florida) threw Lee out of the room. Wrote Salazar in a statement she released shortly after the hearing:
“Today, I exercised my authority as Subcommittee Chairwoman to not allow an off-Committee Member to spread communist propaganda during my Cuba hearing. Members are not entitled to join any Committee proceedings without full consent of the Committee Members.”
Rep. Salazar is the daughter of Cuban refugees while Rep. Lee is an accomplice of Cuban tyrants.
Describing Castro as “a smart man” and a “historian,” Lee also said in reaction to the dictator’s death:
- “We need to stop and pause and mourn his loss.”
- “I was very sad for the Cuban people.”
- “He led a revolution in Cuba that led social improvements for his people.”
- “He wanted normal relations with the United States but not at the expense of the accomplishments of the revolution.”
But Rep. Lee is whining that she was “silenced” in her promotion of the Communist dictatorship by a daughter of Cuban refugees.
“Barbara Lee tried to disrupt an important discussion about the Biden Administration’s lenient policies toward the Cuban regime,” Salazar said. “Barbara Lee is a communist sympathizer who was a personal friend to Fidel Castro, has visited Cuba 21 times, and has been a mouthpiece for the Cuban Regime since 1977.”
Speaking on journalist and political commentator Roland Martin’s digital show, Roland Martin Unfiltered, on Friday morning, Lee clarified that the process of speaking during a committee hearing in which a lawmaker isn’t a member is to request a waiver — regardless of political affiliation. Lee said she asked for a waiver to speak, but Salazar did not grant the Democrat’s request.
“She’s trying to silence me,” Lee said. “And what her move was today demonstrated that she really doesn’t believe in democracy. She believes in only her point of view; she does not believe in the inclusion of different points of views when we talk about Cuban policy.”
How much inclusion of different points of view was there under Castro? Or in California?
Maybe she can shift allegiance to Justin Trudeau.
She may not be everyone’s favorite elected politician but she has an interesting backstory:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbara_Lee
Every legislature in a democracy needs a few loose cannons and outspoken loudmouths who are indifferent to public opinion and the opinion of those who control the mainstream media..
Which part is interesting? Her back story is anti-America.
This is from “discover the networks dot org” which has a very small list of her history. The article is not so ‘censored’ as wiki is and also very interesting. Gives another side of this politician.
[Democratic Member of Congress
* Former agent of Black Panther leader and convicted killer Huey Newton
* Collaborated with the Marxist dictatorship of Grenada to deceive the U.S. Congress
* Voted against using military force against terrorists following the 9/11 attacks
* Has consistently voted against U.S.-led military actions, regardless of circumstances
* Strong supporter of President Obama’s onetime “green jobs czar,” Van Jones
* Admirer of Fidel Castro]
All of this is conveniently left out on wikipedia….consider the source, wiki is worthless for some info.
She also supported Bidet in the Afghanistan withdrawal and slaughter afterwards.
She’s not a lover of America, like most ALL on the left and too many on the right.
My question for you is, which part of her back story is interesting to you.
Che Guevara’s poignantly written screed on Wikipedia reads like a love letter. So many glowing words describing a faithful Marxist that I almost cried in grief for his loss to the world. Che’s gift to humanity was his ability to personally murder so many Cuban Christians without any remorse or compassion for their families. A true atheist whose only God was Marx. A man of many talents all directed towards the destruction of non-believers. When caught in Bolivia he peeded and shite his pants. Like Barbara Lee they were/are useful tools until no longer required. Barbara Lee should be expelled from congress because she aids and abets communists.
Lee banged every commie dictator she could, she’s just a commie ho. You are too, apparently.
Lee, as I mentioned, was just endorsed for Senate by the McClatchy papers.
The mainstream media is behind her.
Mouse-E-Dun was far worst then Hitler for causing Famine in his War Against Sparrows the bugs increased the crops decreased and Mass Starvation. Some bit of News for Eco-Freaks
Every time in history when Governments try to interfere with Nature it causes a human catastrophe.
In the Southeast USA when I was growing up, towns had basically telepone poles festooned with gourds to house swallows and bats for mosquito and bug control.
Well-known in the Bay Area for trips to Cuba.
Are you still awake, big guy? I have this black chick named “Passion” here with me. When she ran out of steam she started cleaning my bathroom! I don’t know why black chicks always do that. I’ll give her credit, she cleaned my tub with about a pound of Ajax and she even brought her own Lysol. I don’t know why black chicks do that. Bring cleaning supplies with them.
And her ass is bigger than the whole world! It’s so fat! I’m in love. I told her to move in with me and marry me.
Good deal Jeff! They are often very tidy.
Why do we allow these seditionists to walk freely within our great country?
Arrest her and throw her in GITMO!!!!
She loves Cuba sooo much!
Let her see the AMERICAN part of Cuba!
Funny they never abandon this awful place for the workers’ paradises. She has to know how black people have been treated in Cuba since the glorious revolution.
Just another thief and murderer in the US government.
That’s who all communists are,
Not just a communist sympathizer, but a communist infiltrator. Legislators should start refusing to be seated on committees with these traitors to the Constitution.
Don’t leave out congressman Jim McGovern of Massachusetts, who has be described as having a fetish for South American marxists and communists. Traveled to Cuba to see Ernest Hemingway’s apartment yet is photographed
with Fidel Castro not in an official capacity but as a private citizen even as the embargo was placed on Cuba decades ago.. You have be a fool not to see what marxism is doing to our country!
… black racists, black nationalists, black supremacists …
… and like-minded anti-Americans with a perma-tan …
… often love Castro …
And seem oblivious to the suffering caused by turning the island into a Castro-owned slave plantation …
KKKrat voters all. Unless we stop them now …
… they will have us eating our pets …
… and driving dune buggies while wearing bondage / gay-fetish gear …
… looking for Normies to slaughter for their gasoline …
Thumbs up Dan, but I’ll starve before I eat my pet, like they would me. I have to plan any time away from my pups because they don’t eat when I’m gone. A blessing and a curse.
Dan, sometimes I think you’re crazy!
She doesn’t support democracy because she won’t let you speak? That is precisely how you propose to run government yourself. Why do you complain? Lee should be required to wear the letter H.
Does anyone remember the HUAC? Some politicians need to remember.
She’ll cover her face and stfu, when the jihadis take over, lol.
Barbara Lee, how she must hate her name, lol. Im a little surprised she hasn’t changed it.
My introduction to David Horowitz was an article, “Another Low And Dishonest Decade On The Left,” in a SciFi book series, “There Will Be War,” edited By Jerry Pournell. Barbarra was featured in it.
I highly recommend the series, I was introduced to some of my favorite SciFi and alternative history authors through it, and some of my least favorite. Some of them are long(Ender’s Game), but you can usually read one or two of the short stories before sleep or while waiting in line somewhere.
If they elected Lee it would be something of a youth movement, going from a 90 year old to a 78 year old.
