Van Jones is a Communist-No Ifs, No Buts-Valerie Jarrett Has Been "Watching"

This is stunning-a 2008 audio of Van Jones explicitly stating that the "Green Jobs" movement will be used to push through "revolutionary" change.

I defy anyone to listen to this and tell me that Van Jones is not still a communist.

Even more stunning is the only days old admission by "the other half of Obama's Brain" Valerie Jarrett, that "we" have been watching Van Jones for some years and are "so happy to recruit him to the White house"

I suggest to readers that they check out this post.

It explains that Jarrett's late father-in-law Vernon Jarrett worked closely with a certain Frank Marshall Davis in a Communist Party front in late 1940s Chicago.

Frank Marshall Davis-a covert Communist Party member then went to Hawaii and ended up mentoring the young Barack Obama.

When Obama moves to Chicago, Vernon Jarrett uses his newspaper columns to promote Obama's political career.

PROFILE: VAN JONES

• Became a Communist in the aftermath of the 1992 "Rodney King riots" in Los Angeles
• Founded the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights in 1996
• Was active in the anti-Iraq War demonstrations organized by International ANSWER
• Served as a board member of the Rainforest Action Network and Free Press
• In March 2009, President Barack Obama named Jones to be his so-called "Green Jobs Czar."

Born in 1968 in rural West Tennessee, Van Jones earned a B.A. degree from the University of Tennessee at Martin and then attended Yale Law School. During his years at Yale, Jones served as an intern with the San Francisco-based Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights (LCCR), which views the United States as an irredeemably racist nation and "champions the legal rights of people of color, poor people, immigrants and refugees, with a special commitment to African-Americans."

Jones says that he first became politically radicalized in the aftermath of the deadly April 1992 Los Angeles riots which erupted shortly after four L.A. police officers who had beaten the infamous Rodney King were exonerated in court. "I was a rowdy nationalist on April 28th," says Jones, who is black, "and then the verdicts came down on April 29th. By August, I was a communist."

Jones was arrested during the L.A. riots and spent a short time in jail. "I met all these young radical people of color," he recalls, "I mean really radical: communists and anarchists. And it was, like, 'This is what I need to be a part of.' I spent the next ten years of my life working with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary."

After earning his Juris Doctorate from Yale in 1993, Jones relocated to San Francisco, where he helped establish Bay Area PoliceWatch, a hotline and lawyer-referral service that began as a project of LCCR. In 1996 he founded the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, which, claiming that the American criminal-justice system is infested with racism, seeks to promote alternatives to incarceration. According to the Baker Center:

"Decades of disinvestment in our cities have led to despair and hopelessness. For poor communities and communities of color it's even worse, as excessive, racist policing and over-incarceration have left people even further behind."

By the late 1990s, Jones was a committed Marxist-Leninist-Maoist who viewed police officers as the arch-enemies of black people, and who loathed capitalism for allegedly exploiting nonwhite minorities worldwide. He became a leading member of Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement (STORM), a now-defunct Bay Area Marxist-Maoist collective that was staffed by members of various local nonprofits, a number of whom had ties to the Ella Baker Center.

In the early 2000s, Jones and STORM were active in the anti-Iraq War demonstrations organized by International ANSWER, a front group for the Marxist-Leninist Workers World Party. STORM also had ties to the South African Communist Party and it revered Amilcar Cabral, the late Marxist revolutionary leader (of Guinea-Bissau and the Cape Verde Islands) who lauded Lenin as "the greatest champion of the national liberation of the peoples." (In 2006 Van Jones would name his own newborn son "Cabral" -- in Amilcar Cabral's honor.)

During his tenure with STORM, Jones collaborated on numerous projects (including antiwar demonstrations) with local activist Elizabeth "Betita" Martinez, who served as a "mentor" for members of the Ella Baker Center. Martinez was a longtime Maoist who went on to join the Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism (CCDS), a Communist Party USA splinter group, in the early 1990s. To this day, Martinez continues to sit on the CCDS advisory board alongside such luminaries as Angela Davis, Timuel Black (who served on Barack Obama's 2004 Senate campaign committee), and musician Pete Seeger. Martinez is also a board member of the Movement for a Democratic Society, the parent organization of Progressives for Obama. Martinez and Van Jones together attended a "Challenging White Supremacy" workshop which advanced the theme that "all too often, the unconscious racism of white activists stands in the way of any effective, worthwhile collaboration" with blacks.

In 2005 Jones and the Ella Baker Center produced the "Social Equity Track" for the United Nations' World Environment Day celebration, a project that eventually would evolve into the Baker Center's Green-Collar Jobs Campaign -- "a job-training and employment pipeline providing 'green pathways out of poverty' for low-income adults in Oakland."

Soon after attending the Clinton Global Initiative in September 2007, Jones launched "Green For All," a non-governmental organization "dedicated to building an inclusive green economy strong enough to lift people out of poverty … advocating for local, state and federal commitment to job creation, job training, and entrepreneurial opportunities in the emerging green economy - especially for people from disadvantaged communities."

In 2008 Jones published his first book, The Green Collar Economy, which focused on environmental and economic issues. The book received favorable reviews from such notables as Al Gore, Nancy Pelosi, Laurie David, Winona LaDuke, environmentalist Paul Hawken, and NAACP President/CEO Ben Jealous.

Jones has served as a board member of numerous environmental and nonprofit organizations, including the Rainforest Action Network; Free Press; Bioneers (which accepts the United Nations Millennium Ecosystem Report's warning that "[h]uman activity is putting such strain on the natural functions of Earth that the ability of the planet's ecosystems to sustain future generations can no longer be taken for granted"); the National Apollo Alliance (which seeks "to catalyze a clean energy revolution that will put millions of Americans to work in a new generation of high-quality, green-collar jobs"); the Social Venture Network (which aims "to build a just economy and sustainable planet"); and Julia Butterfly Hill's "Circle of Life" environmental foundation.

Jones was also a Senior Fellow with the Center for American Progress and a Fellow at the Institute of Noetic Sciences.

In March 2009, President Barack Obama named Jones to be his so-called "Green Jobs Czar." Jones' formal title is "Special Advisor for Green Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation" for the White House Council on Environmental Quality.

In a July 2009 interview with Newsweek magazine, Jones said he could not explain exactly what a "green job" is:

"Well, we still don't have a unified definition, and that's not unusual in a democracy. It takes a while for all the states and the federal government to come to some agreement. But the Department of Labor is working on it very diligently. Fundamentally, it's getting there, but we haven't crossed the finish line yet."

That Obama has filled his admin with communists and anti-Americans shouldn’t surprise anyone.

It’s what most of us predicted.

[BunnySlippers]

Bump

[samtheman]

It’s not what McCain predicted. If he had, he’d be President right now.

But he didn’t want the job as much as he wanted the warm fuzzies. So he defended The Commie Messiah instead of attacking him.

[Mr. Mojo]

Even more stunning is the only days old admission by "the other half of Obama's Brain" Valerie Jarrett, that "we" have been watching Van Jones for some years and are "so happy to recruit him to the White house"

Far from stunning, actually. Obama has surrounded himself with commies and black nationalists his entire life. Most of us around here knew the score on B-HO long before the election. Those who are stunned haven't been paying attention.

[Rashputin]

This stupid SOB Hussein is striking matches and tossing them around while walking through the powder magazine. Isn't there anyone in that whole bunch with enough brains to tell the fool he and his pals are in uncharted territory and not playing around in a Chicago fixed game?

This whole Obama mess will not end well, even if we do avoid a complete financial collapse, it's just going to spin out of control and the backlash will not be pretty. If there are any democrats left that aren't tone deaf, they better get off the bus before it hits the wall or they'll be tarred with the same brush as people like Jones.

Notice how communists and communist sympathizers have to bend over backwards to deny their beliefs?

Hey you communists—that tells us something about your ideology. Try to muster a small amount of intellect for once and think about it.

I am popping some popcorn, and getting ready to amuse myself and watch the MSM try to spin this one.

I often said that this country needed a serious wake-up call from its periodic dalliances with leftist “leaders.” I half-jokingly suggested that we needed a dedicated marxist in the White House to rub our noses in the REAL DEAL. We got it with Obama and he may prove to be the best thing that ever happened to the cause of freedom here.

While making that suggestion, my fingers were crossed. On one hand, I feared that the majority of modern-day folk would come to embrace marxist philosophy and practice and America — the IDEA — would come to an end. On the other hand, I held out hope that my fellow citizens would reject this alien ideology and rebel in a demonstrable way. I thank God that the latter is happening as I write this. The anger and outrage are palpable to even the hard-core leftists now infesting the White House. Barring some catastrophe — which malignant Machiavellians like Rahm “A crisis is too good to waste” Emanuel are fully capable of orchestrating — they will be shown the gate at the next election.

But what has puzzled me most through the run-up to this point is (with some notable exceptions of which Dr. Broun is one) — WHERE ARE THE PRINCIPLED MEN — REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS ALIKE — WHO SHOULD HAVE BEEN STANDING UP TO THIS GUY?? In order that they might avoid the tough questions inherent in governing this nation, have they shipped so much of THEIR power down Pennsylvania Avenue that they are now AFRAID to reclaim it? Why has it fallen to fellows like Glenn Beck, Boortz and a handful of others to do the job of those we elected to office to guard the Constitution from “...all enemies foreign and DOMESTIC?” They have largely been MIA!

And one final thought as we look forward to replacing the Marxist-in-Chief come 2012: What sort of people have we elected when a small, attractive mother from Alaska has BIGGER CAJONES than the alleged MEN now warming seats and wasting expensive space in the halls of congress?

I’m just asking the question we all should be asking these folks.

WHAT WE NEED IS JOE MCCARTHY V.2

"You are seeing today an all out attempt to marshal the forces of the opposition, using not merely the communists, or their fellow travelers-the deluded liberals, the eggheads, and some of my good friends in both the Democratic and Republican Parties who can become heros over night in the eyes of the left-wing press if they will just join with the jackal pack"

[Colonial Warrior]

[Rome2000]

Astounding how the communists have managed to vilify McCarthy to the extent that the old fat and white country clubbers in the GOP would rather tolerate a radical communist in the White House than be accused of "McCarthyism".

Bad news for the REDS is that the next generation of PATRIOTS have no use for country clubbers or marxists, and WILL DEFEAT THE LEFT.

[BornToBeAmerican]

I totally agree with you. The fall out when all of this is going to be something that will not soon be forgotten.

Our only hope and I think it is a good one, is that the majority of the country will slaughter them during the next two elections.

Thanks for the great info, ETL.

You’re welcome. Thanks for posting this great Trevor Loudon/NewZeal.blogspot.com piece. That guy in New Zealand is the best.

Mc Cain is a POS!!

Trevor Loudon a great freedom fighter.

Face it, McCain was too senile to see what was right in front of his nose. We are seeing the ‘if Obama is elected the nation will be all right’ stupidity of McCain’s ‘be the Democrat’s doormat’ routine. The fifth column enemedia gave the stupid Republican party the McCain nomination, so the enemedia’s fascist messiah could win the election. McCain probably has to have someone tie his shoes and make sure he has pants on when he goes out int he morning.
