🔹 In college, Barack Obama helped co-found a local chapter of CISPES (Committee in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador), a U.S. group that supported the FMLN, a Marxist guerrilla front fighting the U.S.-backed Salvadoran government.
🔹 CISPES often worked alongside the Nicaragua Network, which championed the Sandinista revolution in Nicaragua. (U.S. intelligence later confirmed that the Sandinistas supplied El Salvador’s rebels with weapons and training.)
🔹 As the solidarity scene matured:
• 1985: Nicaragua Network + Detroit CISPES ➡️ merge → CASC (Central America Solidarity Committee)
• 1993: CASC + MICAH ➡️ merge → OSCA (Organization in Solidarity with Central America)
• 1998: Former Nicaragua Network activists incorporate the Alliance for Global Justice (AFGJ), folding their old network inside as a project.
Today AFGJ still operates as a left-wing umbrella group ... the same lineage that began with 1980s “solidarity” campaigns.
So yes… the activist ecosystem that once rallied for Marxist guerrillas in Central America evolved, merged, and rebranded, and figures like Obama (via early CISPES work) and later Bill Ayers (through AFGJ-linked circles) both trace lines back into that same network.

Foundations in the late 1960s did a hard pivot to the left by absorbing civil rights dissent instead of fighting it. Many Black Nationalist groups started getting massive amounts of money and it's been that way since for all left-wing causes. They co-opted revolution into the system itself, gave activists UBIs, and as a result traded Weathermen bombers for loyal foot soldiers.

Evidence Pereillo and Greenberg have maintained a close relationship: Pereillo also served as Special Representative for the Quadrennial Diplomacy and Development Review at the State Department from February 24, 2014 to July 5, 2015 under Barack Obama. This overlaps almost exactly with Leah Greenberg's tenure on the same board.

Exact quote from No Kings organizers:
"Throughout history, people who have come together in protest against authoritarian regimes have utilized a color that is easy to see among a sea of thousands."
They aren't denying it. No Kings was literally an attempt at a color revolution.

Black churches in particular were a big target of leftist infiltration in the 1960s and have remained that way. Obama's original community organizing work was in Developing Communities Project, which was implemented through churches.

Something tells me The Bulwark doesn't want people learning the history of Liberia... how freed African Americans, backed by the USA, founded a colony there and went on to enslave the indigenous peoples.

If they despise election monitoring so much, surely they can agree we should cancel grants on election monitoring! Because, you know, US monitoring others' elections is tyranny and all that.

Data in my upcoming book.
The Bush years killed hundreds of thousands in the name of "democracy" at gunpoint, yet they did not drive millions from their homes.
Mass displacement began only after the Arab Spring failed.
Ask yourself why.

Surprisingly, Africa does have a long history of Communist involvement (including anti-fascist). Cleaning out colonialism was an early Communist goal and one of Lenin's 21 conditions.
