Blumenthal Speaks at Communist Party Awards Ceremony

Event organizers used the ceremony to invite people to join the Communist Party

Chuck Ross • December 14, 2021 1:45 pm

Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D., Conn.) spoke at an awards ceremony over the weekend hosted by a Communist Party affiliate whose leaders used the event to recruit potential members to the organization.

Blumenthal, one of the wealthiest members of the Senate, presented certificates of special recognition from the Senate to three winners of the "Amistad Award," given annually by the Connecticut People’s World Committee, an affiliate of the Communist Party USA and the Marxist People’s World news site.

Blumenthal appeared even as Democratic leaders have downplayed allegations that many in the party support socialist or communist policies. President Joe Biden distanced himself from the left-wing ideologies during the 2020 presidential campaign, at one point bragging that he defeated a socialist, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.), in the primaries. Blumenthal used his speech at the ceremony to tout Democratic legislative policies, including voting rights reform, ending the filibuster and the Build Back Better Act, according to the Yankee Institute, a free market think tank in Connecticut that reported details of the event.

Blumenthal Claims He Was Unaware Event He Attended Had Communist Party Ties

Sen. Richard Blumenthal said Friday that, had he known that the awards ceremony in which he gave remarks last weekend was linked to the Communist Party, he would not have attended.

He made an appearance at the Connecticut People's World Committee Amistad Awards on Saturday to give three people special recognition certificates from the U.S. Senate. The CPWC is an affiliate of the Communist Party USA and the Marxist People’s World news site.

"My understanding was that this ceremony was strictly a labor event," Blumenthal told the Hartford Courant. "If I had known the details, I wouldn’t have gone. … Let me just say very emphatically, I’m a Democrat and a strong believer in American capitalism. I have been consistently a Democrat and a strong supporter and believer in American capitalism."

He also noted that the criticism from Republicans over his attendance was just noise and that serving the state of Connecticut remains his top priority.

Exactly. Like so many congressional Democrats, it's probably easier to ask, "When isn't Blumenthal lying?"

Dem senator claims he didn't know event he attended was linked to Communist Party — but video suggests otherwise

CHRIS ENLOE  |  December 19, 2021

Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) issued a mea culpa Friday after he was caught attending an event linked to the Communist Party USA.

What is the background?
The Connecticut People's World Committee hosted its annual Amistad Awards last Saturday, Dec. 11. Not only did Blumenthal attend the event, but he honored the award winners with "certificates of special recognition" from the United States Senate, according to the Yankee Institute.

The problem is: The Connecticut People's World Committee is directly associated with the Communist Party USA, and last Saturday's award ceremony was hosted in honor of the Communist Party USA's 102nd birthday.

What is Blumenthal saying now?
After his appearance at the event generated criticism, Blumenthal is now claiming ignorance.

In an interview with the Hartford Courant, Blumenthal said he was unaware of the event's links to the Communist Party USA, and said he would not have attended the event if he had known the ties.

"My understanding was that this ceremony was strictly a labor event. If I had known the details, I wouldn’t have gone," Blumenthal said.  .  .  .

Did he really not know?
Video from the event suggests Blumenthal could not have been unaware the event was linked to the Communist Party USA. In fact, the person who introduced Blumenthal noted "how important the Communist Party is."

The Party knows who hold allegiance to it.

Why do you think blumenthal was invited in the first place?
