Buzzfeed: Trump Obsessed With Surveillance

Considering Trump has been yammering on about being “wiretapped” by the Obama administration, and our previous article about the possibility that the British GCHQ spy agency may have been used to do it (http://www.covertbookreport.com/yes-the-nsa-and-gchq-share-wiretaps/), this article from Buzzfeed has added gravity: Why Is Donald Trump So Obsessed With Surveillance? https://www.buzzfeed.com/aramroston/why-is-donald-trump-so-obsessed-with-surveillance?utm_term=.qbb3mkLDm#.lln7kaBdk (Excerpts) “At his private club […]

Sorting Through The Newly Revealed CIA Hacking Tools

  • 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 […]

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?

He was the star of an NBA championship, which I pretty much didn’t care about. Later, Walton was doing […]
