Introduction by Paul Krassner, famed comedian and former publisher of The Realist.
Mae Brussell’s investigation of John Kennedy’s murder named names and cut through the ongoing wall of disinformation that, to the present day, obscures hidden intelligence and right-wing connections that have brought about, she wrote, “America's slide to the brink of fascism.”
Ms. Brussell was the most knowledgeable writer on fascist conspiracies in the country. Her understanding of far-right plots bordered on prophetic. Krassner: “Five days before Richard Nixon's would-be adversary, Robert Kennedy, was assassinated in Los Angeles, Mae Brussell handed a letter to Rose Kennedy, expressing her fear of imminent danger to his safety.” She was far ahead of the curve, and this is reflected in her writing on topics from Watergate a host of political assassinations and foreign coups.
Twenty-five years after Mae Brussell’s death, her research is still of vital interest to anyone concerned about the corporate-funded far-right and its grip on the levers of American power.
