First They Came for the Communists
• Jacob Hornberger - FFFYesterday, I wrote about a trial in U.S. District Court in Tampa in which federal prosecutors are keeping us safe by prosecuting and hoping to jail members of a group called the African People's Socialist Party and its related "Uhuru Movement." (Uhuru is Swahili for "freedom"). The government is alleging that the defendants have been secretly working as Russian agents to sow discord and conflict among the American people. So, they're going after them for not registering with the federal government as secret agents of the Russian government.
To launch its case, the federal prosecutors called an expert witness named Dr. Brian Taylor as their first witness. He is a professor of political science at Syracuse University who has worked with the Justice Department in the past as an expert witness. According to the website of 10 Tampa Bay, prosecutors had him "give a broad overview of the adversarial relationship between Russia and the U.S., which took hold during the Cold War."
Now, I ask you: What does the Cold War, which ostensibly ended in 1989, have to do with the prosecution in 2024 of members of a black organization who failed to register with the federal government as supposed secret agents of Russia?
