LA mayor’s past includes ties to Cuba-linked communist network
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass’s past with a pro-Cuba communist group is raising eyebrows anew. Decades ago, Bass led the Venceremos Brigade (VB), a far-left outfit cozy with Cuba’s communist revolution. Now, it’s tangled in a web of Marxist groups tied to anti-American protests, as Just the News reports.
Bass, a key VB member in the 1970s, made eight trips to Cuba, starting with the group’s 1973 contingent. The VB, founded in 1969 by radicals including members of the Students for a Democratic Society, claimed to foster solidarity with Cuba’s revolution. Its real aim, per FBI reports, was to train Americans in guerrilla tactics while posing as sugar cane harvesters.

The 42-year-old, who appeared on The Hills and is a registered Republican, was on course to do what Bass had been desperate to avoid: force the embattled incumbent into a runoff.

Carney setting the stage for massive deficits this year and beyond
While Prime Minister Carney has promised to fix the rotten fiscal situation he inherited, based on his recent commitments, Canadians shouldn’t hold their breath.
During April’s federal election campaign, the Liberal platform promised a budget deficit of $62.3 billion this year—roughly $20 billion larger than what the Trudeau government projected a few months earlier. The platform included billions of new spending on items such as infrastructure, CBC programming and enhanced benefits for seniors, in addition to planned revenue losses from tax changes on capital gains, personal income and the GST for first-time homebuyers.
