AN UNFORGETTABLE MOVIE (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The other night my wife and I watched the classic “On the Waterfront” - best picture of 1954 - for the first time in many years. When I was living in New York half-a-century ago, my first of numerous articles for The Village Voice told the story of “the original Brando” who I tracked down on the streets of Hoboken. I hope my readers today will enjoy it - and view the movie on Prime if you haven’t seen it. It’s an all-time great. Those were the days….Back on the Waterfrontby Dick Russell from The

After becoming a prominent attorney fighting for justice in the Pentagon Papers case, the killing of Karen Silkwood, the Iran-Contra scandal and more, Sheehan has spent the past two decades battling for disclosure of long-hidden files on the UFO/UAP issue. He’s also represented military whistleblowers Luis Elizondo and David Grusch in their own efforts for transpa
FRANK CAMPER, 1946-2026, RIP (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I heard this morning from Frank’s wife Mavis that he’d passed away peacefully of sudden heart failure, just short of his 80th birthday, at their retirement home in Alabama. Though his wasn’t a household name, Frank led a patriotic and adventurous life including being a “fact-checker” for the Defense Intelligence Agency. He served as a valuable source for my upcoming new book, UFOs and the Secret Government. Frank himself wrote a number of books, including The MK/ULTRA Secret, (about the Kennedy
