Update: “Commie Cadet” Discharged from Army

Posted by Tina

Remember the cadet who wore a Che Guevera t-shirt under his uniform and flashed the inside of his lid with the message, “Communism Will Win” for a graduation photo? Apparently his activism has been quite extensive on social media and the Army has had enough:

Eight months after his communist social media postings and conduct caused a conservative media firestorm, 2nd Lieutenant Spenser Rapone (better known as “the commie cadet”) is reportedly being processed out of the Army with the most severe type of military administrative discharge — an “other than honorable discharge.”

Rapone, you may recall, is the avowed Marxist and Antifa supporter who posted pictures of himself on social media promoting pro-communist messages and expressing an intention to infiltrate the U.S. military.

I thought you’d like to know.

    To bad he was not wearing a Pie Guevara T-Shirt.

    More factual, and considered, than what you get off PJ Media, anyway.

      If he was wearing a Pie Guevara tee shirt he would probably have been promoted. However, he wore the wrong tee shirt and now I’m sad we wasted so much time and money on this guy. There are so many highly deserving people that would have given anything to become a West Point cadet and this fool took up one of those rare opportunities. Well, I glad he’s gone, but I’m disturbed that he made it to graduation before he was caught. There should be some reprimands coming for people that allowed him to slip by for so long.

      Which explains all the Post Scripts followers flocking to you blog, Lippy.

      A good article Libby…except for the one paragraph (again, seeking equivalence)

      “Liberals, Democrats, and even socialists are not really the issue here. The left as a block of individuals are a part of America’s political process. Just like it is a ridiculous to label all conservatives as racists or Nazis, we cannot fall back on childish generalizations about the left-leaning Americans. The real issue is communists who believe in revolutionary change.”

      It may be that not all democrats are (or see themselves as) communists. But there’s plenty of evidence that most speak and act as communists would. Most supported the man seeking a “fundamental transformation” of America that would in time, if left undeterred, create a communist state. (Democrats actively sought a permanent one party nation…Democrat)

      WND (2013) featured a review of the book, “The Enemies Within,” by New Zealander Trevor Loudon, “…which documents how extensively communists, socialists and progressives have penetrated the U.S. Congress, running on the Democratic Party ticket.”

      …the Institute for Policy Studies provides extensive evidence that the IPS, operating today with the distinction of being oldest – founded in 1963 – and most influential of the far left “think tanks” in Washington, D.C., “works closely with several U.S. Marxist groups, but is particularly close to the Democratic Socialists of America.”

      The congressional profiles of current members of Congress provides extensive evidence of radical leftist ties in the backgrounds of top Democratic Party legislators, including Democratic Party Sens. Barbara Boxer, Dick Durbin, Tom Harkin, Barbara Mikulski, Elizabeth Warren, Ed Markey, Debbie Stabenow, Al Franken, Sherrod Brown, Ron Wyden, Jeff Merkley, Patty Murray and Tammy Baldwin.

      In the House of Representatives, Loudon profiles the radical left background of Democratic Party Reps. Nancy Pelosi, Louis Gutierrez, John Conyers, Charles Rangel, Marcy Kaptur, Peter DeFazio, Sheila Jackson Lee, Jim McDermott and dozens more.

      Loudon’s profiles of the radical lawmakers is extensively footnoted, complete with photos, news clips, website screen captures and quotations from published sources that leave no doubt as to the authenticity and accuracy of his allegations.

      In documenting the success with which the radical left has captured the politically correct core of Democratic Party politics since the 1970s and the end of the Vietnam War, Loudon joins bestselling author Paul Kengor, who published in 2010 “Dupes: How America’s Adversaries Have Manipulated Conservatives for a Century,” followed in 2012 by “The Communist: Frank Marshall Davis, The Untold Story of Barack Obama’s Mentor.”

      What authors Loudon and Kengor show is that communism in America did not die with the fall of the Berlin Wall. It is alive and well, with ties that run deep today with Barack Obama in the White House and the radical leftist Democrats serving in the halls of Congress.

      More from former radical communist, David Horowitz, here:

      “My parents called themselves progressives,” Horowitz explained with regard to his communist parents. “The agenda was a Soviet America…the slogan of the communist party in those days was peace, jobs, democracy. Sound familiar?”

      That was the theme of Horowitz’s speech as he continued: how the communists had taken over the Democratic Party. “The communist party is the Democratic Party,” Horowitz stated. “In The Great Gatsby, [F. Scott] Fitzgerald describes the rich as people who break things and leave them for others to clean up. That is a wonderful description of the left.” Horowitz, who began as a radical Marxist, said that the modern left had learned stealth from their failures in the 1960s: “The left have learned from the 1960s…we in the 1960s didn’t want to pretend to be Jeffersonian democrats…That’s why we failed in the 1960s. That’s why they’ve succeeded now.”

      But the right, Horowitz pointed out, has failed to acknowledge that reality. On Obamacare, for example, Horowitz railed against the language used by the left: “single-payer.” Instead, he said, “it is communism,” pointing out that it was state ownership of the means of production. He added, “The left hate the Constitution because Madison designed it to thwart them.”

      Every program or plan the Democrats embrace is imbued with Marxist principles.

      On the other hand, Republicans, especially the freedom centered new line of Republicans, propose policies in line with the Constitution and our founding principles. No one in the party now has associated with any Nazi or Marxist (socialist) group or person in America to my knowledge, although Democrats try to make the association wide-spread with their labeling and misquoting schemes.

      I do agree with Horowitz that old guard Republicans won’t acknowledge the Democrats association with communism and the principles of Marx. They have been fearful and feckless. They failed to talk over the dem supportive media and trust the American people. Until the Tea Party rise they had little reason to trust…now they should! And some are probably just as ignorantly wrapped in the feel good notions of Marx as are many rank and file democrats.

    Dec 2017, Huffington Post, “Permanent Democratic Majority: New Study Says Yes”

    A growing number of political scientists, analysts and strategists are making the case for a realignment of political power in the U.S. to a new Democratic majority based on two trends: 1) the increasing numbers of black and Hispanic voters, and 2) a decisive shift away from the Republican Party by the suburban and well-educated constituencies that once formed the backbone of the GOP.

    (Hillary was a shoe in and organizations and big left coast corporate execs were on board) …Frontpage Magazine (link incomplete – page not accessible-donation wall):

    I’m confused myself, but they are a chamber… of commerce, so I assume that their plan to turn America into a one-party Democratic country is really well thought out and not at all like the time the insurance industry and medical associations decided to back ObamaCare…This is why challenging C of C candidates in primaries is justified unless they disavow immigration reform (amnesty) because whether or not the seat is held by a pro-amnesty Republican or a Democrat, amnesty will mean permanent Democratic Party rule in under two decades.

    Apparently the US Chamber of Commerce had candidates in the running with that goal in mind!

    Oct 2015, Conservative Review, “Report: Limitless immigration creating permanent Dem majority”

    Highlights: Over the past 18 years, the U.S. has admitted over roughly 700,000-800,000 citizens into our voting population every year, with a few years reaching 1 million.
    Between 1989-2013, the U.S. has admitted 25.3 million legal permanent residents.
    During a comparable 25-year period at the height of the Great Wave, from 1900-1924, only 16.8 million green cards were issued. The current wave has been 66% larger than the Great Wave in terms of green cards issued.
    While the immigration wave of the modern era was 66% larger than the Great Wave, the “naturalization wave” underway is 329% greater.
    3.52 million immigrants have been naturalized in California since 1996, roughly one-fourth of the total naturalizations nationwide.
    According to a 2012 survey, current immigrants favor Democrats over Republicans by almost 4-1.
    A number of critical states have doubled or tripled their immigrant population over the past few decades, which in turn has helped Democrats create a “blue firewall” in the Electoral College. …

    …There’s a reason the Democrats are such ardent supporters of open borders.

    When you pay close attention you spot these things.

    And from two sources you are sure to poo poo…

    NewsMax, “Obama-Clinton Goal Was to Create a Permanent Democratic Majority”

    <blockquoteThe Obama-Clinton-Democrat takeover of America involves two major initiatives: societal and governmental.

    The societal initiatives included:

    1. Infiltrating the important non-governmental institutions of society with Clinton-Obama supporters. For example, the Catholic Church leadership opposed a portion of the Obama policies. Hillary’s response was: we need to put our own people in the leadership positions of the church. Other examples of this infiltration, while not so deliberate, are the near total domination by Democrats of mass communication and the education system.

    2. Weaken nongovernmental institutions or drive them out of existence. For example, private charitable organizations are competition for a government aspiring to be the people’s savior and protector. The left opposes permitting the private sector to do almost anything that can be taken over by government.

    3. The threat and actual use of intimidating violence in the streets by organizations that burn and pillage and injure.

    4. Operating a shadow organization 365 days a year to keep the pressure on society and government. The Clinton Foundation closely fits this model. The Foundation employees were still on the Clinton payroll while holding offices in the government.

    The governmental initiatives include:

    1. Government offices, historically neutral, become aggressive forceful agents that can infiltrate all aspects of society and suppress any opposition.

    2. Using government to surveille everyone, gathering information that could be used against anyone who opposes the leaders. The hit film, “The Lives of Others” (2006) about the East German secret police, provides an understanding of the pernicious impact of surveillance.

    3. Control the election process. Opposition is suppressed and abused with a two pronged approach: (i) use government to curb the activities of opposition, and (ii) flood the nation with immigrants, legal and illegal, who are believed to be likely Democratic voters.

    4. Unfortunately a case can be made to explain the light touch of the Democratic axis even to deal with terrorists entering the United States. The more terrorists, the larger the number of government employees required to shadow and monitor the terrorists — thus a growth in government, and there is the added bonus of a massive, unchallengeable need for surveillance.

    Had Hillary won the 2016 election, Republicans would have had no chance to win a future election. What Obama, Hillary and the Democrats were creating was a totalitarian mass movement and a totalitarian party (remember Hillary had control of the Democratic Party) that ultimately would have resulted in a totalitarian rule. What the Obama-Hillary Axis was doing resembles the information in William Kornhauser’s classic book, “The Politics of Mass Society,” in which he considers the transitions of a free society to a totalitarian one.

    There’s a reaso you all thought Hillary was a shoe in whether or not you consciously knew about actions and motivations to create permanency.

    Sept 2014, American Thinker, “The Plot to Create a Permanent Democratic Majority”

    President Obama and his fellow Democrats are scheming to use immigration and housing policy to fulfill their dream to fundamentally transform America forever.

    Over a decade ago, two liberals-John Judis and Rus Teixeira-wrote a book, The Emerging Democratic Majority, that predicted demographic changes would inevitably lead to a Democratic lock on Congress and the White House. Their argument since has been updated by both of them and by others. Back in 2009, Teixeira wrote that “that demographic and geographic “trends should take America down a very different road than has been traveled in the last eight years. A new progressive America is on the rise.” …

    … There are clues to this plan in the lax enforcement of our immigration laws, the targeting of states and law-enforcement officials that are trying to enforce those very laws, and the abuse of “prosecutorial discretion” to hand out get-out-of-jail-free cards, as well as tax dollars, to lawbreakers. One of his more potent and controversial actions was President Obama’s use of “executive authority” in 2012 to enact the Dream Act by fiat — despite his profession just the year before that he had no power to circumvent Congress in that way (for once, he was right about the law). …

    … Attorney General Eric Holder has been targeting southern states for years to loosen voter identification and other anti-voter fraud measures. Democrats are actively working to turn Texas blue (after Obama’s re-election, Jeremy Bird, Obama’s campaign national field director, started Battleground Texas, a grass-roots political organization to make Texas competitive, a long-term effort to take root perhaps by the 2020 presidential election, wrote Amy Chozick in the New York Times). Skeptics may scoff but California was once solidly Republican and now has Jerry Brown as governor and Dianne Feinstein and Barbara Boxer as senators. …

    … social engineering… There were good reasons one of the first steps Barack Obama took upon becoming President was trying to bring the Census Department under White House control (“it’s called politics” as this Wall Street Journal column by John Fund depicted the ploy; the Census combined with the IRS would be powerful political tools for Democrats — paid for by taxpayers).

    The problem with these “surplus voters” is that their votes are wasted in reliably Democratic districts. Moving them into districts where they can tip the balance and the district into the Democratic column would be a masterstroke. This population transfer (dictators have a fetish for this type of social engineering, by the way) would be done — is being done — under the guise of “social justice,” “affordable housing,” and “redressing past racial wrongs.” Those tactics and terms intimidate protesters and stifle free speech.

    And the beat goes on….

    • Libby says:

      None of this contemplates the obliteration of the Republican, or any other, political party. Tina, your paranoia gets the better of you intellect … again.

  5. Tina says:

    Your arrogance trips you up again! When you can’t refute what I’ve said you resort to insults. Why is it so hard to relax and expand your awareness and knowledge?

    I didn’t address the state of the Republican party or any other. However, if your party managed to fulfill its plan, the other parties would exist in a permanent wilderness void of any power.

    I was talking about the plans members of your party had to permanently dominate politically and, through legislation and the courts, create complete government control of industry…which would be the end of our Constitutional republic.

    No paranoia here but I do notice what the radicals that have taken over your party are up to and have been up to for many decades.

    • Libby says:

      Yes, paranoia. Hoping to achieve a majority, to win an election … IS NOT to wish death upon the other party. It’s your own fault if your policies and positions will not sustain a majority for any length of time, nobody else’s.

      If you think it is some wicked conspiracy, you are paranoid. In fact, the only party that actively tries to restrict access to polling places is … altogether now … The Republican Party of America!

      And if you’re not being paranoid, you’re being dangerous. Did you really think that the opposition was just going to collapse when Trump took office? Did you collapse when the O-man scaled the heights? You did not. You bought out the nation’s stock of ammunition, that’s what you did. It’s a wonder is man is still with us.

      WE … are having a high old time in the nation’s courts!
