Review: “9/11 Unmasked” – By Griffin And Woodworth

Review: “9/11 Unmasked” – By Griffin And Woodworth

Well it’s been a pleasure to add another fine book to my 9/11 collection, which began with Peter Dale Scott’s “The Road To 9/11”. Enough time and investigation has gone by that, much like the Kennedy assassinations we actually know quite a bit about how things went down – or at least what did not […]

Review: “Giants – The Global Power Elite” by Peter Phillips

December 16, 2018
Review: “Giants – The Global Power Elite” by Peter Phillips

In the nearly 60 years that I’ve been kicking dirt on this planet, economic systems have gone through significant changes. The industrial manufacturing base in the United States has been strip-mined, privatization of public resources has enriched corporations and cost the population more for life-giving necessities such as water. The cost of education has left […]

Weaponized Hypnosis Part 2: The Manchurian Candidate

In this article we will look further into the use of “weaponized hypnosis” by the military and intelligence agencies. In part 1 we took a look at the CIA’s “Kubark Manual”, also referred to as “The CIA Document of Human Manipulation”. The Kubark manual covered using hypnosis, often combined with drugs, to interrogate enemy prisoners. […]

Earl Browder is also the grandfather of Bill Browder, a renegade financial scammer that fled Russia and the US to avoid taxes. He now resides in London. Bill Browder […]

Review: “Propaganda” By Edward Bernays

Review: “Propaganda” By Edward Bernays

It’s all around us; on street signs, radio, papers, books and most importantly – television. It’s propaganda, and the person who re-popularized the term was Edward Bernays, the nephew of Sigmund Freud. “Propaganda” was written in 1928, at the dawn of serious mass media. Radio had been out for a while, and he makes mention […]

“It Can’t Happen Here” Predicted Trump In 1935

“It Can’t Happen Here” Predicted Trump In 1935

It’s not often that I read and review fiction, but with the Trump presidency devolving into a desperate, rabid beast it was time to read “It Can’t Happen Here” by Sinclair Lewis. The book, which was written in 1935 as Fascism was rising in Europe, accurately predicted the rise of an authoritarian like Mein Trumpf. […]

Review: The Martin Luther King Congressional Cover-Up

This is the 50th anniversary of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, one of the most important political and spiritual leaders of our time. So far, none of the media I have listened to has mentioned anything at all about one of the most obvious conspiracies in American history, the murder and cover-up of […]

“Revolution’s End” Interview On Midnight Writer News

“Revolution’s End” Interview On Midnight Writer News

I’d like to bring your attention to a really, really good interview with Brad Schreiber, author of “Revolution’s End: The Patty Hearst Kidnapping, Mind Control, and the Secret History of Donald DeFreeze and the SLA”. Schreiber makes it clear in this interview that the emphasis in the book is more about kidnapper and government patsy […]

Review: “The Almost Classified Guide to CIA Front Companies” By Wayne Madsen

For those of us who dabble in spy-hunting, Wayne Madsen has provided 400 pages of companies that he suggests are CIA fronts. The full title is “The Almost Classified Guide to CIA Front Companies, Proprietaries & Contractors”. Many of these are well known, but there are hundreds I have never heard of. Additionally, there are […]

Review: “Rose City Vice” By Phil Stanford

Review: “Rose City Vice” By Phil Stanford

Portland Oregon is known for its granola-weed liberalism, Antifa, and the comic TV series “Portlandia“. What it is not generally known for is the KKK, the mob (as identified by attorney general Robert Kennedy), and being “the pornography capital of the west coast”. In “Rose City Vice – Portland in the ’70’s; Dirty Cops and […]

  • Review: “Continental Reckoning” By Elliot West
    I learned quite a bit in reading this huge book, which probably was meant for college classes. Indeed, the author of “Continental Reckoning”, Elliot West, is a Professor of History Emeritus at the University of Arkansas. This book should be in an Economic or Law history class, and probably is. Author Elliot West clearly outlines […]
  • All About Ken Kesey: Two Reviews
    “Spit In The Ocean #7 – All about Kesey” is an eclectic collection of real tales about legendary Oregon writer Ken Kesey. Kesey is best known for writing “One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest” (mental institutions) and “Sometimes A Great Notion” (an Oregon logging family). Both books were actually written in California, and both are […]
  • Review: “Acid Dreams” By Lee & Shlain
    I found “Acid Dreams; The Complete History Of LSD: The CIA, The Sixties, And Beyond” a pretty good summary of the LSD experience, from the use of the drug in interrogation techniques used by intelligence agencies, to the use of such drugs to destabilize the revolutionary youth movement. At nearly 300 pages (my copy), it […]
  • Did Jack Scott “Radicalize” The NBA’s Bill Walton?
    Did Jack Scott Radicalize NBA Star Bill Walton? Sadly, we have to note that Bill Walton (and Jack Scott) are no longer living. Walton was a hero for many where I grew up in Portland, Oregon. He was the star of an NBA championship, which I pretty much didn’t care about. Later, Walton was doing […]
  • Review: Gold Warriors – America’s Secret Recovery Of Yamashita’s Gold
    This book, “Gold Warriors”, by Sterling and Peggy Seagrave is really, really good. It can be expensive because it is out of print, but I bought it long ago and it has been waiting in my “to read” pile. Affordable copies can still be found, I ordered one for a friend and apparently it is […]
