Amigos,

Its one thing to call someone a communist, but to encounter a true-blue, dye in the wool believe in marxism in the United States is not actually that common.

Except in the Biden Administration of course…

According to Fox Business:

President Biden’s pick for Office of the Comptroller of the Currency is facing a hard fight over her past comments and studies as she refuses to turn over her thesis on Marxism while a student at Moscow State University. 

Saule Omarova was born in the Soviet Union in what is now called Kazakhstan and graduated from Moscow State University in 1989. She has pointed to the USSR’s practices as recently as 2019, when she tweeted about the gender pay gap, citing the USSR as a better model.

U.S. Senate Banking Committee Ranking Member Pat Toomey, R-Pa., last week asked Omarova to turn over a copy of her thesis – in both English and the original Russian – for review by the committee no later than Oct. 13. Her thesis, titled "Karl Marx’s Economic Analysis and the Theory of Revolution in The Capital," remains an item of interest to some members on the committee. 

"While it appears that you have deleted any reference to your thesis in the version of your curriculum vitae (CV) that is currently available on the Cornell Law School website, the paper appeared on your CV as recently as April 2017," Toomey wrote on Oct. 6. 

Omarova had not complied with the request as of Thursday, Oct. 14, a spokesperson for Senate Banking Committee Republicans claimed.

What a bizarre America we live in. Somewhere, Joe McCarthy is rolling in his grave.

Your humble servant,
