Communist Quits
Van Jones Out
WorldNetDaily.com -- September 6
WND's 5-month series of exposés leads to White House's 1st casualty
Washington -- President Barack Obama's "Green Jobs Czar" Van Jones quit late last night after pressure mounted over his extremist history first exposed in WND.
The last straw for Jones was being caught on tape in an expletive-packed rant, directly attacking Republicans in the Senate who he said abused their majority position in the past to push legislation through. He admitted after the statements were released that the comments were "inappropriate" and "offensive."
"They do not reflect the experience I have had since joining the administration," Jones said in the statement. [...]
In April, Aaron Klein, Jerusalem bureau chief for WND.com, broke the first major story on Jones who was identified as a self-described radical communist and "rowdy black nationalist" who said his environmental activism was actually a means to fight for racial and class "justice.
 American Patrol Report: No mention of Communism here -- A search of mainstream media reports on Jones' resignation could find nothing that included the words "communist" or "communism."
