The New York City Council is celebrating a communist who was convicted and executed for betraying the United States. You heard that right. They are celebrating a traitor.
The city council passed a proclamation celebrating Ethel Rosenberg who was executed as a traitor in 1953.
Ethel Rosenberg, who was executed with her husband for treason in 1953, was honored Monday by the City Council on what would have been her 100th birthday.
Three council members joined Manhattan Borough President Gale Brewer in issuing two proclamations lauding Rosenberg, a Lower East Side resident, for “demonstrating great bravery” in leading a 1935 strike against the National New York Packing and Supply Co., where she worked as a clerk.
The proclamations also said she was “wrongfully” executed for helping her husband, Julius, pass atomic secrets to the Soviet Union.
Democrats celebrating traitors. What a surprise.
