A Democrat running for election to serve as California state controller, the state's independent fiscal watchdog, traveled to Venezuela in 2006 to learn about Hugo Chavez's socialist revolution.

The perfect commie ho for the job.
If she goes and discovers “The Workers Paradise’’ is just that, they’ll let her out of the country.
If she discovers it’s Hell on Earth they’ll find some reason to lock her up.

California is has been a MARXIST shithole for decades. This was just a refresher course trip.
A lot of leftists went to Stalinist Russia and returned, praising it and they idolized Stalin for the rest of their lives. They ignore anything that does not fit their narrative.
/massive eyeroll.
socialism 101, I take from you
