	At the ~~25th [[National Convention (CPUSA)\|National Convention~~ of the ~~CPUSA]] held in December, 1991, in [[Cleveland]]~~, a ~~[[Revisionism\|revisionist]] named [[~~Gus Hall]] managed to ~~take total control~~ of ~~the CPUSA in a coup. The coup had been planned for some time~~, ~~with Gus Hall~~ and ~~his supporters having managed~~ to ~~successfully infiltrate over 40% of~~ the CPUSA ~~leadership. It started when his supporters seized the ''[[People’s Weekly World]]'' and then used their influence~~ in the ~~party to purge all opposition members~~. ~~They then established~~ the ~~[[Social democracy\|social democratic]] Committees of Correspondence, now known as~~ the [[Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism~~]] today~~.~~<ref name="~~:0" />

	After ~~Gus Hall's successful coup in the CPUSA,~~ the ~~party descended very quickly into chaos. The CPUSA almost completely collapsed~~, ~~with parts of the organization disintegrating into the [[Democratic Socialists~~ of ~~America]] (DSA) and other parts completely caving into the Democratic Party.<ref name=":0" /> Despite this crisis, the CPUSA managed to cling onto life and reogranized into a revived organization~~ after ~~the chaos cleared up~~.		After the CCDS had already split, some people remained supporters of Davis even after she had split. One of those people was Sam Webb, who remained a close associate of Gus Hall while working behind his back. When Gus Hall Died in 2000, Sam Webb took over the party, purging any pro soviet and Marxist-Leninist trace of the party.

	~~In the years following the coup~~, ~~the CPUSA became~~ a ~~complete puppet~~ of ~~the Democratic Party as it betrayed the [[proletariat]] and advocated for electing Democrat candidates across the [[United States]]~~. ~~Many members fo CPUSA criticized this blatant liberalization of~~ the party, ~~however few actually left~~ the party ~~or rebelled against the leadership in the 1992-2022 time period.<ref>[https://www.youtube~~.~~com/watch?v=4o_LjizHDno CPUSA: Vanguard of the Working Class or Tool of the Dems?

	In 2022, opposing the liberalization of CPUSA, a Marxist-Leninist organization in the United States known as [[Infrared]] began pushing for #[[CPUSA 2036\|CPUSA2036]]. The goal of CPUSA 2036 as a slogan was to infiltrate, reclaim, and deliberalize the CPUSA and turn it into the [[Vanguardism\|vanguard party]] of a [[Second American Revolution]] against the [[bourgeoisie]].<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SBHivQ_QSo The Meaning of CPUSA 2036 \| Infrared Show ft.

	A few months into the CPUSA 2036 movement, a new concept of #[[MAGA Communism\|MAGACommunism]] began to develop within Infrared and its supporters. MAGA Communism is, now, an adaption of the [[mass line]] to the United States where the American proletariat and [[peasantry]] of all banners come together and fight for common prosperity, common equality, and liberty from [[fascism]]. These groups that would unite include [[Agriculture\|farmers]], the [[2022 railroad strikes in the United States\|railroad strikers]], and the [[Make America Great Again]] (MAGA) movement.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kf9ucXmA9gE When a Communist Attends a Trump Rally...]</ref>		A few months into the CPUSA 2036 movement, a new concept of #[[MAGA Communism\|MAGACommunism]] began to develop within Infrared and its supporters.

	In August, 2022, a split occurred in the [[Communist Party of South New Hampshire]] (CPSNH) when members of the CPUSA from [[New Hampshire]] split from the main party and formed their own [[CPUSA New Hampshire]] (CPUSANH) as a "rogue" branch of the party that advocated for both #CPUSA2036 and #MAGACommunism.<ref>[https://twitter.com/CPUSA_NH CPUSA New Hampshire]</ref> This split remained isolated in New Hampshire for until October, 2022, when more CPUSA branches split between pro-Democrat and "rogue" factions all across the country. It finally came to ahead when, on October 19, 2022, a new organization calling itself the CPUSA emerged as separate from the liberalized one,<ref>[https://twitter.com/CPUSA_2036 Communist Party USA]</ref> officially formalizing a split in the party. The new anti-Democrat CPUSA created a website on October 21, 2022,<ref>[https://www.cpusa2036.org/ COMMUNIST PARTY USA]</ref> and began to come into conflict with the pro-liberal branches.
