Socialism is taking over the Democrat Party. Recent elections in New York and Massachusetts reveal the Democrat Party to be veering sharply leftward in their zeal to undermine the common-sense policies and extraordinary results of the Trump Administration and Republican Congress.

Not so fast, says Ileana Johnson. Born, raised, and educated in Bucharest, Romania, she will present a first-hand account of real life in a socialist state as the guest speaker at the Fairfax County Republican Committee meeting scheduled for 7:30 – 8:45 PM on Tuesday September 18, at the W.T. Woodson High School Auditorium, 9525 Main Street, Fairfax, VA 22031. In so doing, she will puncture the myths, misrepresentations, and falsehoods peddled by socialist ideologues.

A former citizen of communist Romania, retired university professor, book author, and prolific, multi-media commentator, Ms. Johnson argues vigorously from both personal experience and intellectual analysis that America must emphatically reject this germinating Democrat socialist movement before its empty promises inflict serious damage on the American economy and culture.
