Russ Baker - Family of Secrets: The Bush Dynasty, America's Invisible Government, and the Hidden History of the Last Fifty Years
January 16
Russ Baker is the author of the 2008 book Family of Secrets that probes the Bush family and alleges connections between President George H.W. Bush and individuals involved with the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and the Watergate scandal.
How did the deeply flawed George W. Bush ascend to the highest office in the nation, what forces abetted his rise, and-perhaps most important-have those forces really been vanquished by Obama's election? Award-winning investigative journalist Russ Baker gives us the answers in Family of Secrets, a compelling and startling new take on the Bush dynasty and the shadowy elite that has quietly steered the American republic for the past half century and more. Baker shows how this network of figures in intelligence, the military, oil, and finance enabled-and in turn benefited handsomely from-the Bushes' perch at the highest levels of government. As Baker reveals, this deeply entrenched elite remains in power regardless of who sits in the Oval Office.
Family of Secrets offers countless disclosures that challenge the conventional accounts of such central events as the JFK assassination and Watergate. It includes an inside account of George W.'s cynical religious conversion and the untold real background to the disastrous response to Hurricane Katrina. Baker's narrative is gripping, sobering, and deeply sourced. It will change the way we understand not just the Bush years, but a half century of postwar history-and the present.

Sean MacLeod - Behind the Wall of Illusion
April 11
The Beatles brought colour, joy, freedom and love to a grey, post-war world. But the most successful group in popular music history also harboured hidden, sometimes darker worlds and influences that are often downplayed by their biographers. In their career, the Fab Four were to cross paths with many spiritual movements, religious groups, esoteric philosophies and mystical teachings. Inevitably, their thinking was affected by the ideas they encountered. These ideas in turn helped shape their music and – given their vast popularity – the public consciousness. Behind the Wall of Illusion examines the spiritual inspirations that the Beatles brought to the changing cultural landscape of the 1960s. --- From the popularization of the new religion of rock ‘n’ roll, Beatlemania (the ‘new Cult of Dionysus’) and John Lennon’s explosive statement that the Beatles were ‘bigger than Jesus’, Sean MacLeod takes us on a tour of Indian ashrams, questionable gurus and hallucinatory drugs. He also studies the secreted ‘clues’ in the Beatles’ album covers and films; the growing rumours that Paul had been killed in a car crash and covertly replaced; and the tragic assassination of John Lennon and the unknown perpetrators behind the crime. This is an indispensable book for any lover of the Beatles.

Tim Tolka - Blue Mafia
April 23
Blue Mafia tells the backstory behind two federal investigations of police brutality in Steubenville and Warren, Ohio, from the perspective of the victims, cops, attorneys, and officials who participated. The story is essentially the biography of a small-town civil rights lawyer, but it is also a hard-boiled detective novel set in an era of rank corruption, smear campaigns, false imprisonments, death threats, and assassination attempts, no longer carried out by the mob, but instead by and for the police.
The book explores the controversial police brutality lawsuits leading up to the historic police reform agreements and their outcomes, using the career of a local civil rights lawyer who fought a 20-year battle against two brutal, corrupt police departments and acted as an informant to federal investigators. It is like an instruction manual for aspiring activists and civil rights defenders who want to oust a despotic police chief or prosecutor, as well as an idiot’s guide for law enforcement and public officials on the pitfalls of power.
In Steubenville, when attorney Richard Olivito defends a drug dealer claiming police misconduct, he begins to feel hunted. Later, he acts as an informant and collaborator to Justice Department officials investigating the Steubenville police, which results in a consent decree, or court-enforced reform agreement, the 2nd in U.S. history. A few years later, Olivito incites another federal Investigation in neighboring Warren, where residents have complained of police brutality for decades. This time is different because there is a video.
Blue Mafia shows that some small towns have at least equally severe problems with police brutality and misconduct as many big cities, and it chronicles federal reform efforts on local police agencies during five U.S. presidential administrations, providing the most detailed account to date of police reform by consent decree and revealing the messy, sometimes tragic yet always human aspects of policing.

Casey Gane returns to talk about Chris Tucker. Tucker has a almost meteoric rise to fame, which suddenly halted about the same time as Tucker started hanging about with Michael Jackson and Jeffrey Epstein.
So what happened? In an interview which covers almost every conceivable aspect, from covert flights and Maxwell to highly questionable business and sexual dealings, it's almost a script for a movie.
Casey is one of those researchers who, when getting the whiff of a good story, won't let it go until he has all the details.
Casey Gane-Macalla shares his findings with Ed Opperman.

Hi, we're Kaylee and Ian. Originally from Kentucky, we moved to Gulfport, Florida with a lifelong dream: to live on a sailboat. Life in Kentucky had been difficult for us with various financial and medical struggles, but we took what little money we had and decided to take a chance on the life we wanted so badly. With limited funds, we poured our hearts and souls into making it happen. Unbridled Spirit, our beloved 35ft Columbia sailboat, was neglected and needed many repairs. We fell in love with her the minute we saw her and wanted her as our own anyway. She wasn't livable, but we were determined to make her our home. We sacrificed everything for her; we lived out of our vehicle to save money, spent every dime of our paycheck on the things she needed, and worked every night and weekend after our day jobs. We even worked while sick or injured, then went back to sleep in our vehicle every night.
Living in our truck was grueling. The Florida heat, without AC, was unbearable. Even a simple bathroom trip meant a 20-minute journey to a gas station. But we were determined, channeling every penny into the boat.
We began by tackling the infestation of palmetto bugs and layers of mold and rot. Scrubbing every inch, often wearing masks to protect ourselves, we transformed the boat. Ian tirelessly worked on the engine, finally bringing it to life—a moment of pure joy.
We dedicated ourselves to the process, engaging in weeks of back-breaking labor, replacing the interior piece by piece. Despite the busted fingers and sore hands, we created a livable space. Though far from finished, we no longer had to endure life in our truck.
Sunday night shattered our dreams at the hands of Debby. The storm's ferocity caught us off guard. Flooding was expected, and we didn’t have a way to evacuate. Our only options were to stay in our boat, which was attached to a mooring ball, or to stay in our truck, which seemed dangerous with the flash flooding. We reinforced our boat with extra lines and did all we could to secure our home.
Winds and waves became too strong, and our dinghy was swept away, solar panels were torn off, and we were violently tossed around inside. Water surged in, and the standing rigging began to tear out.
Petrified and helpless, we attempted to anchor, but it quickly snapped. With no motor keys due to the storm's chaos, we secured essential belongings in a dry bag. The boat spun out of control, narrowly avoiding a collision before a wave pushed us toward the seawall.
Just before impact, we jumped into chest-deep water and swam to shore. We watched in horror as our boat slammed into the seawall, creating a gaping hole and accelerating the flooding.
Now, we face an uncertain future. Our beloved Unbridled Spirit is likely totaled, and we're back to sleeping in our vehicle. We lost our home, memories, belongings, and months of labor. We had plans and dreams for our future on that boat, and it's heartbreaking to see it all washed away.
Reluctantly, we created a GoFundMe after numerous suggestions. We don’t expect anything, but any support, even a share, means the world to us. We could use help with securing housing, replacing our personal belongings such as toiletries and clothing, and with food since we are unfortunately living in our truck again. Updates will be posted on Facebook.
Our hearts go out to everyone affected by this storm. Many suffered severe damage, and you are all in our prayers. Much love to you all.

Dave Emory - The Walls Came Tumbling Down - Nazis, Fascists and the 911 Attacks
2 days ago
David Emory is a political researcher and broadcaster whose California-based radio programs are heard on a regular basis in the United States, Canada and Europe.
Mr. Emory’s broadcasts focus on the U.S. military and intelligence community’s historical involvement with international fascism. Researching such national security establishment abuses as domestic and foreign political assassinations, and governmental complicity with organized crime and drug smuggling syndicates, Mr. Emory has distilled his academic research into an archival documentary format. These “archive” programs consist of excerpts from printed sources read during his broadcasts.
Mr. Emory’s programs have been featured on a regular basis on Pacifica stations KPFK (Los Angeles) and WBAI (New York), and many smaller stations. He has appeared as guest on major commercial stations including KGO-AM (San Francisco) and WLUP-AM (Chicago) and as an expert commentator on broadcast outlets in three continents. Audio cassette copies of the archive programs are also circulated internationally.
Mr. Emory began his work during the Watergate era when he noted numerous connections between that scandal and the assassination of President Kennedy. Pursuing his work on the JFK assassination, Mr. Emory discovered Nazi General Reinhard Gehlen’s Eastern front spy apparatus, and its incorporation into the CIA after World War II. This led Mr. Emory to study the origins of fascism and its influence on the contemporary world.
Mr. Emory graduated from Amherst College with a B.A. in psychology.
