John Lennon’s FBI Files

from Slate Magazine’s Hot Document: John Lennon’s FBI Files.

  • According to the FBI, “Lennon encouraged the belief that he holds revolutionary views … by the content of some of his songs.” The memo cites a published interview with writers for the Red Mole, the magazine of a thousand-member, United Kingdom-based Trotskyist organization bearing the unimaginative name International Marxist Group. The FBI reported that the British Trots were hoping the singer would “finance a left-wing bookshop and reading room in London.”

    Lenny Flatley is not a Wiccan, a Scientologist or a registered Democrat. He will never finish his long promised account of the six months he spent on the Womens PGA Tour (for liability reasons). He is currently listening to the song "Words" by Doves. If you must contact him, he prefers that you do it on myspace.

    This country will give you a war if you want it, and it will give you all the consumer benefits of a system that creates war, if you want it, while keeping the war itself safely stashed away. And if you’re not satisfied, you can always get a lap dance.
