Mayor Bill de Blasio was back to being just another comrade Friday night at an out-of-town reunion for a left-leaning social justice group that helps families sympathetic to the Sandinistas in Nicaragua.

“The mayor remains committed to the highest ideals of the Sandinistas, such as expanded access to education and health care,” de Blasio rep Seth Stein said of the mayor attending a staff reunion of the Quixote Center in Hyattsville, Md. “He is not blind to their faults.”

De Blasio traveled to the Marxist Sandinista regime in 1988 to distribute food and medicine during Nicaragua’s civil war.

At the time, the US opposed the Sandinistas, who were receiving weapons from the Soviets and supplies from Cuba.
