In the eyes of the MAGA right, NYC’s Zohran Mamdani and Minneapolis’ Omah Fateh, both candidates for mayor of their respective cites, are communists. But so were Barack Obama, Kamala Harris, and even Joe Biden. The anti-Marxist Big Lie is back! In fact it never left. However, if polls are correct it’s having far less impact than ever before. On the other hand, the ruling class right is growing more desperate and therefore more dangerous.
This marks the third time anti-communist and anti-socialist crusades have been used to divide the country. What lessons were learned during the McCarthy period, including mistakes the CPUSA made during that awful period in U.S. history? What’s the best way to fight back? Tune in for the discussion.

The Communist Party USA is a revolutionary working-class political party founded in 1919 in Chicago, IL.
The Communist Party stands for the interests of the American working class and the American people. It stands for our interests in both the present and the future. Solidarity with workers of other countries is also part of our work. We work in coalition with the labor movement, the peace movement, the student movement, organizations fighting for equality and social justice, the environmental movement, immigrants rights groups and the health care for all campaign.
But to win a better life for working families, we believe that we must go further. We believe that the American people can replace capitalism with a system that puts people before profit — socialism.
We are rooted in our country's revolutionary history and its struggles for democracy. We call for "Bill of Rights" socialism, guaranteeing full individual freedoms.
