My friend and mentor John Judis has a piece out in The New Republic putting today’s news in the context the low-level harassment and surveillance he was put under as a pretty unthreatening New Left radical journalist back in the 60s and early 70s. I can see that John and I are coming at this whole story from pretty different sides. But John’s a smart enough guy and I’ve seen enough times when he saw things that I missed and got things right that I got wrong that I wanted to link to his piece.
