A Washington watchdog group says it has identified a second official in the
Obama administration whose family history includes an investigation by the
federal government into communist activities.
Judicial Watch posted a report
Friday that said Jeh Johnson, the secretary of Homeland Security, confirmed in a
recent news conference that his grandfather appeared before the House
Un-American Activities Committee in the 1940s.
Judicial Watch said the FBI previously disclosed that “the dad, maternal
grandpa and father-in-law of President Obama’s trusted senior adviser, Valerie
Jarrett, were hardcore Communists under investigation by the U.S. government.”
Johnson’s family history is relevant, Judicial Watch said, “because, although
Islamic terrorists keep attacking America, the cabinet official responsible for
the nation’s safety has vowed to protect Muslims from the type of persecution he
says his grandpa suffered under McCarthyism in the 1940s.”
Judicial Watch, which focuses on uncovering government corruption, said
Johnson’s admission came at a recent event at the All Dulles Area Muslim Society
mosque attended by Judicial Watch representatives.
Johnson compared the discrimination Muslims face now, in a climate of “fear,
suspicions and prejudice,” to the 1940s and 1950s, when members of Congress
charged that communists had infiltrated the U.S. government while it was in a
Cold War with the Soviet Union and its allies.
“In 1949, during the McCarthy era, my own grandfather was called upon to
testify before the House Un-American Activities Committee, to deny he was a
member of the Communist Party and defend the patriotism of African Americans,”
Johnson said at the time.
“Today his grandson is responsible for the homeland security of this entire
nation.”
Judicial Watch said mosque leaders tried to keep Judicial Watch from
attending the event, but the Department of Homeland Security “reluctantly
intervened” after multiple appeals.
Initially, the DHS acting assistant secretary for public affairs, Todd
Breasseale, told JW his agency “does not have the authority to force any private
entity to accommodate those whom they do not wish to accommodate.”
But the watchdog group noted the news conference was widely promoted and
featured a cabinet secretary.
The report said Johnson’s communist connection “had not previously been
revealed and it certainly wasn’t mentioned during Senate confirmation hearings
before he took over the massive agency created after 9/11 to keep the nation
safe.”
“This was a bombshell, according to an editorial published in a Los
Angeles-based newspaper dedicated to covering business, finance and economics.
‘Johnson’s family history is most troubling,’ the editorial reads. ‘As Muslim
terrorism hits closer and closer to home, our Homeland Security chief views the
war on Islamic terrorism as another Red scare, where Muslim terrorist suspects
are Red-baited like his grandfather. No wonder this administration isn’t
interested in monitoring radical Muslims for terrorist connections.’”
The report said FBI files revealed Jarrett’s father, pathologist James
Bowman, “had extensive ties to Communist associations and individuals.”
He also was “a member of a Communist-sympathizing group called the
Association of Internes and Medical Students. After his discharge from the Army
Medical Corps in 1955, Bowman moved to Iran to work, the FBI records show.”
Jarrett’s father-in-law, Vernon Jarrett, “was also another big-time Chicago
Communist,” the report said.

"... It is only in this way that we can hope to arrive at truth, and fulfill the great responsibility which we hold to God and our country. Should I keep back my opinions at such a time, through fear of giving offense, I should consider myself as guilty of treason towards my country, and of an act of disloyalty toward the Majesty of Heaven, which I revere above all earthly kings."....I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
