Remembering Fukushima: Top 125 FOIA Documents &... →
“Our government was intimately involved in withholding accurate data from the public as well as minimizing what was being publicly reported.

“That’s what Nikola Tesla was scheduled to tell Franklin Delano Roosevelt in 1943. In 1943 he proposed to FDR that perhaps we should look...
