Marxist Ex-Rebel Gustavo Petro Wins Colombian Presidency in Narrow, Historic Election

Since November of last year, hard-Leftists have been sweeping into power in Latin America. Honduras, Peru, Chile, and now Colombia have all replaced pro-America and pro-Israel governments with hard-Leftists. And if the polls are correct, Brazil and Paraguay will also elect hard-Leftist governments later this year.

Expect China, Russia, and Iran to exploit Latin America’s changing political landscape in the months ahead. All while the incompetent Biden Administration does nothing to respond.

Leftism (communism, socialism) is the most destructive, evil, irrational, blind, anti-real force in human history, It should have been dead and buried after Hitler and Stalin, and yet here we are with even America, the greatest experiment in self governance, being subsumed by this terrible evil.

“The Communists’ chief purpose is to destroy every form of independence—independent work, independent action, independent property, independent thought, an independent mind, or an independent man. Conformity, alikeness, servility, submission and obedience are necessary to establish a Communist slave-state.”

“There is no difference between the principles, policies and practical results of socialism—and those of any historical or prehistorical tyranny. (Ayn Rand)
