Finding righteous currents in turbulent times

Reform Department of Injustice

“For the habitual truth-teller and truth-seeker, indeed, the world has very little liking. He is always unpopular, and not infrequently his unpopularity is so excessive that it endangers his life . . . In no field can he count on a friendly audience, and freedom from assault. Especially in the United States is his whole enterprise viewed with bilious eye. The men the American people admire most extravagantly are the most daring liars; the men they detest most violently are those who try to tell them the truth.” H.L. Mencken, “The Art Eternal,” 1918.

Lionel Nation quotes Mencken as Nation discusses moves by President Donald Trump to destroy the last vestiges of a corrupt, criminal cabal known as the Department of Justice. Some irony there, for sure.
