CounterPunch: Tells the Facts, Names the Names
Where Principles Go to Die
In America, Speaking the Truth is a Career-Ending Event
By PAUL CRAIG ROBERTS
...Truth cannot be spoken in America. It cannot be spoken in universities. It cannot be spoken in the media. It cannot be spoken in courts, which is why defendants and defense attorneys have given up on trials and cop pleas to lesser offenses that never occurred.
Truth is never spoken by government. As Jonathan Turley said recently, Washington “is where principles go to die.”
