The feminist icon's exhortations to vote (Democrat) don't mesh with her murky history with the CIA.
The irony of Gloria Steinem’s latest push for voter engagement is hard to miss. Rallying cries such as, "If you don't vote [for Kamala Harris], you don't count!" ring a bit hollow, given her past. A past that many Americans know very little, if anything, about.
I’m talking about Steinem's history with the CIA — a group infamous for undermining democracy. From 1958 to 1962, Steinem worked as director for the CIA-backed Independent Research Group, which actively helped manipulate youth movements to advance American geopolitical interests.
