History of the American Security State; a book by Gore Vidal. In hand, while Assange was arrested.

Links for readers, here, here, here, here, here for background with a focus upon Chelsea Manning and Wikileaks, here for YouTube showing the arrest (how many fascists are needed to change a lightbulb or to arrest a patriot), here for suitable editorial outrage and worry (Chris Hedges in conversation).

The First Amendment deserves better than it's gotten, both from some laziness in parts of the press, and from overaggressive trampling by government operatives AND top level decision making. Assenge, here, about journalism under attack (if you can stand Hannity involvement).
