MUCH LOVE AND GRIM SOLIDARITY: BAYNARD WOODS TAKES STOCK IN THE LAST DEMOCRACY IN CRISIS COLUMN

Written by BAYNARD WOODS Posted July 5, 2018 Filed Under: COLUMNS, Democracy in Crisis

Now, more than 70 columns later, either that has changed, or I was wrong-headed from the start.

DRUG WARRIORS: CIA-CONTRA COCAINE CONSPIRACY FALL GUY “FREEWAY” RICKY ROSS TALKS OLIVER NORTH

Written by BRANDON SODERBERG Posted May 29, 2018 Filed Under: COLUMNS, Democracy in Crisis, NEWS+OPINIONS

As outrageous amounts of cocaine entered the country, guys like Ross bought and sold it, and the boys below him cooked it up and sold it as crack, creating an epidemic in neighborhoods that cops couldn’t give a shit about—at least until they could arrest everybody for the drugs the government allowed into the country with a wink and a nod.
