Establishment Right and Left Call for COINTELPRO 2.0
[image: undefined] Both heads of the two-headed establishment political hydra want to resurrect COINTELPRO, the FBI’s illegal subversion program, in response to speech they oppose and want outlawed. In August, The Verge (owned by liberal Vox Media and founded by former CIA asset Markos Moulitsas) and the National Review, the failing neocon journal edited by Rich Lowry, posted articles on how to best undermine the First Amendment right of millions of Americans.

Is this the End of Boris Johnson?
There is one way I'd like to see Boris Johnson go down in the history books: as the UK's shortest-serving Prime Minister. And you know what? It could happen. Surveying the wreckage from the Commons' votes of the last two days, Johnson is in a position arguably worse than any Theresa May found herself in. Hold on a minute, some might say, how can you even think this when the Tories are returning handsome leads in the polls and Johnson is getting much better approval numbers than Jeremy Corbyn? I can say it thanks to how he's boxed himself in. Since appointing Dominic Cummings as his... more »

The Poet: Paul Laurence Dunbar, “We Wear The Mask”
*“We Wear The Mask”* “We wear the mask that grins and lies, It hides our cheeks and shades our eyes,- This debt we pay to human guile; With torn and bleeding hearts we smile, And mouth with myriad subtleties. Why should the world be over-wise, In counting all our tears and sighs? Nay, let them only see us, while We wear the mask. We smile, but, O great Christ, our cries To thee from tortured souls arise. We sing, but oh the clay is vile Beneath our feet, and long the mile; But let the world dream otherwise, We wear the mask!” - Paul Laurence Dunbar
"Isn't It Strange..."

How does it benefit us?" *Hobbes*: "I suppose if we couldn't laugh at things that don't make sense, we couldn't react to a lot of life." *Calvin:* (after a long pause) "I can't tell if that's funny or really scary."

The difficult will is the one tied to selfishness.
1. * And* in all cases I say patience. Out of the domain of tranquility are born the most valiant offerings. By stilling the mind the passions of adversity are understood as passing. The morrow will be valiant: We will it so. The difficult will is the one tied to selfishness.
