Partial breakdown of Communists in California Government

Posted on 10.26.18

INFORMATION FOR THE CALIFORNIANS!!   God Bless our America.

**Actor Ossie Davis,** a longtime Communist Party supporter, served on
the Rainbow Coalition’s National Board in 1987, as did “former” Party
members 
**lawyer Arthur Kinoy,**
Kentucky civil rights activist 
**Anne
Braden
** and
Party supporter 
**Rev. Ben Chavis**

**Longtime Communist Party supporter (now Congresswoman)
Maxine Waters
** also served, as did

Manhattan Borough President and
Party supporter 
**Percy Sutton,** reportedly a “money man” during Jackson’s 1984 run for the  Presidency.

It was the Maoists however, who
really ran the Rainbow organization.
Rainbow Coalition’s National Board in 1987
**Longtime Communist Party supporter
(now Congresswoman) Maxine Waters also served.*
*

**Democratic Socialists of America largely missed the boat in
1984, but were all in by 1988.*
*

**Longtime Democratic Socialists of America supporter
Heather Booth served on the 1987 Rainbow Board, as did DSA comrades Dolores
Huerta of the United Farmworkers.
**

**Kurt Stand**, a
DSA comrade in Washington, DC helped the Spring
1988 issue of the Rainbow Organizer.
At the time he led a spy ring, stealing military secrets for communist East Germany.
He was later sentenced to 17 years in prison.

**Former CWP members are still very powerful in the New York Democratic
Party and also around Southern California Congresswoman Judy Chu.*
*

Line of March held multiple key
positions in the Rainbow. LOM activists in the Rainbow included

**Carla Wallace**,
steering committee Kentucky Rainbow Coalition and

**Clarence Lusane**, a leading Washington,
DC activist.

**In 1984, LOM supporter Josie Camacho was Rainbow
Coalition co-chair in California’s
8th District; in 1989,*
*

**Larry Hobson was co-chair of the USC-Fresno Rainbow Coalition**; and

**Leni Marin** was chairman of Filipinos for Jackson.

**The League and its supporters dominated the Rainbow in
California, Boston
and to a slightly lesser degree in New York
and Chicago. 
**

Altogether the League probably had
at least a thousand members working inside the Rainbow.

In 2017, **Freedom Road**entered into an alliance with the **Communist Party USA** and **Democratic
Socialists of America
** to rebuild the Rainbow inside
and outside of the Democratic Party. Freedom Road is also close to 
**Steve Phillips and PowerPAC+**

This unholy alliance is working on
a new Rainbow Coalition. This time its called
the 
**“New American Majority”** and its coming to a polling place near you.

**San Francisco lawyer Steve Phillips**is one the most influential, and from a Constitutional
point of view, one of the most dangerous political operatives in the country
today.

With access to huge wealth through
his marriage to 
**Susan Sandler **(daughter of billionaire leftist donors **Herb and Marion Sandler)**, Steve Phillips has been able to elect stealth
socialist  “candidates of color” all over the country

Steve Phillips’ main vehicle for
funding and electing his stable of candidates until recent times was 
**PowerPAC+.**

From the PowerPAC+
website:
Originally called PAC+, PowerPAC+ is a political
action committee formed in 2012 to build the political power of America’s
multiracial majority.

It emerged from the groundbreaking
work of 
**Vote Hope in 2007-08.**

At that time, then-**Senator Barack Obama** was assembling his Presidential campaign and California’s primary
moved from June to a more influential month, February. “We created Vote Hope,
the first super-PAC aimed at supporting Barack Obama’s bid for president. Vote
Hope was the largest independent effort in the nation to increase voter turnout
in communities of color. It drew in $10 million, and expanded to 18
states during the primary season”.

After President Obama’s election,
“we set up a DC office and worked closely with the administration’s personnel
staff” to build a 
**Diversity Talent Bank** that the White House used to identify and hire
more than 60 people including 
**Associate
Attorney General Tony West
**.

During that same period, many in
our network became leaders in non-profits, philanthropy, and government such as
Vote Hope fundraiser and former board member 
**Benjamin Jealous who became NAACP president”**.

In 2009, “we convened” the
leadership of the largest civil rights groups in the country and helped execute
a media campaign targeting senators who were wavering on the health care reform
bill. That effort led to the creation of a coalition of labor, civil rights,
and progressive groups who conducted the 
**One Nation Working Together 10/2/10 March on Washington.**

Since then, PowerPAC+
has consulted with the leadership of the Democratic Party, organizations and
campaigns about how to best build support in the communities of color.

Thanks to our many donors, we have
been able to support some of the most exciting leaders to emerge in modern
politics. From 
**Hawaii Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard** – a two-time veteran and first **Samoan**in
Congress, to 
**Congressman Mark Takano** – the first non-white openly gay member of
Congress, to 
**Ohio Minority Whip Nina
Turner 
**– who is standing up for voting
rights in this important swing state – our group of social justice champions
represent an exciting future for American politics

**Senator Mazie Hirono (Hawaii), Senator Kamala Harris (California),
Senator Cory Booker (New Jersey), Texas Congressman Mark Veasy
and California Congressman Pete Aguilar are among the many new American leaders
PowerPAC+ has elected on your “behalf.”
**

While open and public in many ways,
PowerPAC+ is still a stealth operation. 
**Most PowerPAC+ people are
covert Marxists
**.

As are most of the candidates they
support. Steve Phillips made sure that only trusted friends would serve in the PowerPAC+ leadership. Most of his inner circle  were old Stanford
University comrades, or fellow California student
radicals. The 
**“Stanford Mafia”** as they sometimes jokingly call themselves

http://www.trevorloudon.com/2018/05/the-rainbow-conspiracy-part-4-steve-phillipss-powerpac-marxist-money-machine-for-the-new-progressive-majority/

PowerPAC+’s key leaders include:

    **Aimee Allison, Senior Vice President PowerPAC+. A Stanford graduate,** Amy Allison and Steve Phillips** knew each other
well, even traveling to Alabama
together in 1988.

In 1989, Aimee Allison, served on
the Stanford Council of Presidents (Stanford’s student government leadership
body), with 
**Chin-Chin Chen, David Brown and
Ingrid Nava 
**(a current PowerPAC+
board member).

All were elected on the **“Slate of the Times” ticket**, which was supported by the **League of Revolutionary Struggle-aligned “Peoples
Platform.”
**

Allison, then an Army Reserve
combat medic, and active in Stanford University’s Ujamoa,
African-American center, was also interviewed in the 
**Unity Organizing Committee’s Unity of February 18,
1991
**, regarding conscientious objection
to the Gulf War.

Allison was later a director at the
San Francisco Department on the Status of Women and led several sessions at the
United Nations Commission on the status of women NGO conference.

**Julie Martinez went on to work on Capitol Hill as a
Special Assistant to far left California Senator Alan Cranston.*
*

**Andy Wong is President of PowerPAC.org**

**POWERPAC+’s sister organization. **

He also serves on the PowerPAC+ board. Wong wasn’t educated at Stanford (he
studied electrical engineering in Civil Engineering at UC Berkeley and Applied
Math at San Francisco State University), but he worked very closely with Steve
Phillips on radical student politics. 

**Andy Wong was an active member of Unity Organizing
Committee’s Student Unity Network. He worked on the Unity newspaper and in May
1992,*
* guest-edited the paper with two current PowerPAC+ board members:

**Stacey Leyton
and Ingrid Nava.
 **

Wong began his political career by
winning a series of student government elections at San Francisco State
University, UC Berkeley,
UCLA and Stanford. He went on to run city and county campaigns in the San
Francisco Bay Area, electing “people of color and gay community activists to

Community College
Board,
BART Board,
School Board and the
Board of Supervisors.”

Since then, he has “helped flip the
most red to blue Congressional races for one state (California) and continues to run PowerPAC+’s support of candidates of color around the
country

**Steve Phillips, Julie Marinez
Ortega, Andy Wong and Lisa Le were all key organizers of the 1987 student March
on Sacramento
that drew 8,000 people to the state capitol to “support expanded educational
opportunities for students of color.*
*

PowerPAC+’s board of directors is also clearly
descended from the

League of Revolutionary Struggle,
its successor

Unity Organizing Committee, Stanford University and radical student politics.

**The board is a who’s who of prominent non-profit
execs, legal professionals, well-connected Democratic Party activists and media
strategists, and particularly minority voter registration and “Get Out The Vote” experts. Almost all are from far left
backgrounds
**

Notable board members have
included:

**Stacey Abrams,** State Representative from Georgia,
House Minority Leader for the Georgia
General Assembly.
Democratic candidate for Governor of Georgia.

**Greg Akili**, a Senior Adviser to the Black Workers
Center,

Project

1998 to 2001, 
**

Echaveste served as Assistant to the
President and Deputy Chief of Staff to President Bill Clinton.

Echaveste managed President Clinton’s
domestic policy initiatives on education, civil rights and immigration.

At Stanford University
in the mid-1970s, Echaveste was a leader of MECHhA and in a small group called “

Students for
Equity,” an “umbrella organization for all minorities.”

This group was led by Cuba-visiting
Black Student Union leader 
**Charles
Ogletree
**

In 1991, Harvard Law Professor Ogletree would find fame as **Anita Hill’s **lawyer, leading the charge against Supreme Court nominee **Clarence Thomas. **

Ogletree also claims to have mentored
both 
**Michelle Obama and Barack Obama** during their respective periods at Harvard.

Barack Obama participated in Ogletree’s Saturday School Program, which were designed to
“expose minority students, in particular, to critical issues in the study of
law.” According to Ogletree, the Obama’s have called
on him for advice since that time. In September 2014, President Barack Obama  nominated Maria Echaveste
to become the US Ambassador
to Mexico,
but she withdrew her name from consideration.
