Trivia question: "Who goes to Moscow on the 4th of July to celebrate America's Day of Independence?
Republicans, that's who.
In 2018, eight republican lawmakers celebrated the 4th of July inMoscow: Senator Richard C. Shelby of Alabama, who led the delegation, along with Senators Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, John Neely Kennedy of Louisiana, Steve Daines of Montana, North Dakota’s John Hoeven, Jerry Moran of Kansas, South Dakota’s John Thune, and Rep. Kay Granger of Texas. The dubious reason they gave for the trip was “engagement."
The group met with a number of RussianAgents, and keyRussian officials, including foreign minister and former RussianAmbassador to the US, the two who 14 months earlier were photographed by the RussianPress yukking it up with Trump in the Oval Office, the day after Trump fired Comey for daring to do his job of investigatingRussian interference in our elections. To this day, we have no way of knowing what was discussed during their visit toMoscow, as the media was barred from the closed-door meetings, much to the delight of the GloatingRussians.

Conservatives like referring to liberals as communists, when in reality it's nothing more than pure projection. Conservatism is practically in lock step with communism.
The origins of the term Liberal traces back to the Latin word liber (meaning “free”), which is also the root of the word "liberty "("the quality or state of being free").
Conservative:
tending to preserve or protect, preservative, having the power to keep whole or safe," from Old French conservatif, from Medieval Latin conservativus, from Latin conservatus, past participle of conservare "to keep, preserve, keep intact, guard.
In other words, to maintain and protect the status quo, and the establishment.
From 1840 in the general sense, conservatives are disposed to retain and maintain what is established, opposed to innovation and change, or, in a negative sense, opposed to progress.
Conservatives have even taken a page right out the communist playbook. Controlling the reproductive rights of women is an old and well document communist tradition.
Because if a government can prevent you from having anAbortion, it can also force you to have one. That's what happens when the choice has been taken away from you. It doesn't get more communist than that.
