Ah, good ol' "Wild" Bill Cooper. Mysteriously died right after 9/11. Gunned down by "sheriffs" who claimed he'd attacked someone; everyone knows it was because Slick Willie and AG Reno were out to get him, by any means necessary.

His book, Behold a Pale Horse, was instrumental in opening my eyes back in the mid 90s. Indeed, I was getting some books out of storage (finally getting a bookshelf to put them on!) and his book was right on top. It even came with a "Trilateral Commission" map, showing how the CFR (which we now recognize as a hub for the deep state) was at the middle of so many shady events. It was Wild Bill's tireless quest for the Truth that inspired my handle.
