29. Moulitsas was a sympathizer of the right wing government of El Salvador during the El Salvador civil war

Moulitsas is Salvadoran but comes from a family that had ties to the right wing government there (he claims that he was fleeing the communist guerrillas but you had to be a part of the government or the wealthy there in order to be an enemy of the guerillas.)

Moulitsas also has connections with the CIA, having admitted that he was recruited long ago.
