Code Pink held protests outside American military bases for two decades – and nobody asked who was pulling the strings.
Now a State Department report is about to answer that question.
What Rubio found inside the network connecting Havana to America's activist Left is something Democrats are not going to want published.
Cuba's Communist Infiltration of American Nonprofits
The State Department confirmed to Breitbart News this week that it is releasing a report detailing how the Cuban communist regime has operated a deliberate, decades-long campaign to radicalize American activist organizations from the inside.
The findings land like a hammer.
"The Cuban regime has played an indispensable role in nearly every notable far-left insurgency, revolution, and militant movement across the Western Hemisphere and beyond," a State Department official told Breitbart News.
Code Pink founder Medea Benjamin lived in Cuba from 1979 to 1983.
The group spent years running what it called humanitarian delegations to Havana, agitating against American military policy, and campaigning to free convicted Cuban spies.
The real transformation came in 2017, when Code Pink leader Jodie Evans married China-based billionaire Neville Roy Singham – a self-described Marxist now under federal grand jury investigation for $278 million in alleged financial crimes.
"In the years following the marriage – and a massive infusion of Singham cash – Code Pink rapidly shifted from a more conventional leftist anti-war group to a comprehensive, party-line advocate for the PRC and other anti-American foreign states," the State Department report states.
Since 2017, roughly 25 percent of Code Pink's funding has flowed from organizations connected to Singham.
Code Pink, DSA and the $1 Billion Cuba Foreign Influence Network
The Department of Justice is currently investigating 145 pro-Cuba organizations – with combined revenues of approximately $1 billion – for potential violations of the Foreign Agents Registration Act.
The hub connecting them is ICAP, the Cuban Institute of Friendship with the Peoples, founded by Fidel Castro in 1960 and now sanctioned by Secretary Rubio under Executive Order 14404.
Castro built ICAP as an intelligence front from day one.
Cold War-era CIA documents declassified in the years since show how the operation actually worked: activists were brought to Havana, handed off to Cuban intelligence officers running under ICAP cover, and trained in espionage and guerrilla sabotage before returning to the United States.
The organization's current president – Fernando González Llort – is a convicted Cuban spy who served 15 years in American federal prison for his role in the Wasp Network.
He now runs the operation that tells American leftists their work against U.S. policy is "essential."
Just this month, federal agents arrested Carlos Antonio Lloga Domínguez – a former ICAP official who had been operating inside the United States for over a decade as an unregistered foreign agent of the Cuban regime.
He’s now facing deportation.
How DSA and Code Pink Became Cuba's Network Inside America
Sitting between ICAP and American political life is the National Network on Cuba – 77 activist organizations, nonprofits, and political campaigns bound together in a structure specifically engineered to obscure its command chain and shield members from legal exposure.
The Democratic Socialists of America is a member.
DSA leadership met with Cuban regime officials at the Cuban Embassy in New York, then flew to Havana and signed a formal partnership with ICAP – the same organization Rubio just sanctioned as a foreign intelligence front.
DSA members have openly promoted "destroying America from within."
One DSA member – in Rhode Island – told a crowd the group exists "to overthrow the entire capitalist state."
And less than two weeks ago, the Cuban news outlet ADN Cuba revealed that the NNOC issued internal orders directing embedded revolutionaries inside the United States to prepare rapid-response protests targeting ICE facilities, military bases, and federal buildings in the event of any U.S. military confrontation with Havana.
These protests, history shows, do not stay peaceful.
Soviet intelligence built Cuba's spy apparatus from scratch in the early 1960s, and by 1968 Castro had signed a secret agreement placing the entire Cuban intelligence directorate under direct KGB control.
Experts tracked the network for decades.
Nobody listened.
"They have never been held accountable for being willing collaborators with that old KGB network," J. Michael Waller, a national security expert who tracked Soviet influence operations, told the Daily Caller News Foundation. "Big media never exposed them. The FBI almost never went after them."
Rubio Sanctions ICAP and Launches 70-Nation Counterterrorism Summit
Secretary of State Marco Rubio hosts delegations from more than 70 countries at the State Department for a ministerial summit on what the Trump administration calls "the resurgence of transnational far-left terrorism."
Rubio already sanctioned ICAP, MINFAR, and the Cuban Rapid Response Brigades.
DOJ opened a FARA investigation into the Cuba-linked nonprofit network.
A federal grand jury is probing Singham over $278 million in alleged illegal transfers.
The State Department has formally named Cuba "the world's capital of radical left terrorism."
He is treating the entire network – Cuba, China, Singham, the DSA, the NNOC, the NGO universe – as a coordinated foreign subversion operation aimed at collapsing the United States from within.
For 70 years, communists played a long game inside America's nonprofit sector, its universities, and its activist left.
They were patient because nobody was watching.
That scheme is being stopped dead in its tracks.
