In 1934, Father Coughlin announced the formation of the National Union of Social Justice.
At this time some observers claimed that Father Coughlin was the second most important political figure in the United States.
It was estimated that Coughlin's radio broadcasts were getting an audience of 30 million people.
He was also having to employ twenty-six secretaries to deal with the 400,000 letters a week he was receiving from his listeners.

The Zionists of today don't support communism though
They are of the far right by and large and support oligarchial corporate capitalism. Also the religious right in general support Israel and believe in Zionism, even if a few exceptions don't. So to pin this all on communism I think is a misdirection
Re: Father Coughlin's "Jews Support Communism"
Infinite,
Ever hear or read about the "Two Headed Beast"? Zionists aim to control both sides of the table Capitalism and Communism. AIPAC contrubutes equally to Dems and Repubs; it serves their ultimate goals BUT in the end they truly are primarily Communists. Do some research and discover on your own like this:
Dupes of Judah
Here's Pelley's very refreshing tale of American suckerdom. Real old-timey and honest. There's personal info
on Pelley at the end. Enjoy.
DUPES OF JUDAH – A CHALLENGE TO THE AMERICAN LEGION
http://www.jrbooksonline.com/HTML-docs/dupes%20of%20judah.htm
William Dudley Pelley (1890 - 1965) founded the Silver Rangers of America on 31 January 1933 which soon
became known as the Silvershirts. He was an accomplished author and was involved with many screen
productions. After the jews declared their holy war on Germany in 1933, he soon became fingered as "the
most dangerous man in America." The American Hebrew magazine, which first used the 6,000,000 figure in
its October 31, 1919 issue, targeted Mr. Pelley since patriotism interferes with internationalism schemes.
OUT OF THEIR OWN MOUTHS.
To the New York Herald Tribune:
Mr. Treister stated in his letter in your paper that the Jewish people form a very small percentage of the
Communists in America. He states that "... in Chicago, with a Jewish population of 400,000, there are about
150 Communists."
I myself am Jewish, and I come from Chicago. I spent 13 years in that city. Approximately 98 percent of us
are Communists, and we are not ashamed of it. It is a system laid down to us by our great leader, Karl
Marx, and only the cowards hide behind "democracy" or "Americanism." Furthermore, I think Mr. Treister
should check up on his figures more closely if he would give out information.

Inifinite, the Jews work any side of the street and the labels are just labels. Many former "communists" became Neocons: it's all about grabbing control and using the money and means of the masses of goyim to do the Jews bidding.
I like Coughlin for his courage, honesty, and clarity. Also, he sets an example worth remembering and he's full of important historical details.
Re: Father Coughlin's "Jews Support Communism"
George Soros, a jew, seems to really like Chinese Communism. Would you, Infinite, agree that Soros would be considered a Capitalist?
"There is a really remarkable, rapid shift of power and influence from the United States to China," Mr. Soros said, likening the U.S.'s decline to that of the U.K. after the Second World War.
Because global economic power is shifting, Mr. Soros said China needs to change its focus. "China has risen very rapidly by looking out for its own interests," he said. "They have now got to accept responsibility for world order and the interests of other people as well."
Mr. Soros even went so far as to say that at times China wields more power than the U.S. because of the political gridlock in Washington. "Today China has not only a more vigorous economy, but actually a better functioning government than the United States," he said, a hard statement for him to make because he spent much of his life donating to anti-communist groups in Eastern Europe.
Soros's statement is similar to the frequent "China-for-a-day" musings of columnist Tom Friedman.
On a related subject, Kay King of the Council on Foreign Relations has a new report out on the U.S. congress's impact on national security. King's critiques of congressional procedure, in particular the filibuster, won't be news to anyone who's read recent critiques of congressional dysfunction, but she makes a compelling case that because of limited public interest, congress is effectively abandoning its oversight role on national security affairs. Issues like energy, trade, and immigration are typically treated as purely domestic issues by congress, while membership on foreign affairs committees appeal only to members positioning themselves for higher office or those dependent on ethnic or business special interests.
King writes:
When Congress fails to perform, national security suffers thanks to ill-considered policies, delayed or inadequate resources, and insufficient personnel. Without congressional guidance, allies and adversaries alike devalue U.S. policies because they lack the support of the American peopel that is provided through their representatives in Congress.
King provides a number of ideas for reform which will hopefully be a bit more palatable to U.S. sensibilities than taking cues on good governance from Beijing.

You don't remember the Chicago Seven?
Re: Father Coughlin's "Jews Support Communism"
Also (on Montreal):
Jewish cultural life flourished, especially on St. Laurent Blvd. near de la Gauchetière St. and Dorchester, where Montreal’s first Jewish bookstore opened in 1902, selling Yiddish books and pamphlets.
“This bookstore became a centre for Jews who wanted to discuss anarchism and socialism, a place where they could access periodicals and other publications,” said Ira Robinson, a professor of Judaic Studies at Concordia University.
