50 years ago next month, the NYT began publishing the Pentagon Papers, a seminal moment in the history of the Vietnam War and in leaks of Top Secret information. Its source, Daniel Ellsberg, has made another unauthorized disclosure. /1

Thank you for this excellent presentation. I'm glad the is still publishing classified information in the public interest, even though increasingly regards this as an indictable offense: see Reality Winner, Daniel Hale, and Julian Assange.
My utmost respect for all you have done. So few truth-tellers left these days. Best of luck with this.

just saw Stone's "JFK" again about the coup d'etat by military-industrial complex. Things just went downhill from there and is getting worse by the day..
Thank you, , for putting your freedom on the line again.
PARTIALLY over the principle of releasing classified information in the public interest.
But MORE IMPORTANTLY by revealing the truth about the nuclear sword of Damocles that hovers above the human race.
