Charges Dropped Against New Jersey Man After Dashcam Shows Cops Lying

I encourage you to watch this whole thing. Near the end they explain that the police’s own Internal Affairs investigation had concluded the cops did nothing wrong. Thank goodness the second dash cam video came to light. (Also note that the police didn’t originally turn this over. I don’t understand exactly what changed, but prosecutors […]

Court Intellectuals Hit Back at Whistleblowers

I’ve been traveling and just now read the mid-January piece in The New Republic by Sean Wilentz, a history professor at Princeton.

Surely the American People Would Never Let That Happen!?

Things have gotten so bad, I have no choice but to read aloud from the New York Times.

Lew Rockwell on Optimism Amidst Fascism

Nelson Nash apparently bought 50 copies of Lew Rockwell’s new collection of essays, Fascism vs. Capitalism, because he was so excited by it. He sent me one. I have only just begun it (David Gordon reviews it here), but I wanted to share the conclusion of his introduction, because it got me all fired up. […]
