| was scheduled to perform stand-up at Budd Friedman's Improvisation comedy club in Hollywood in April. He asked me to try and get some advance publicity. On April 2, the Los Angeles Herald-Examiner quoted a dispatch from the New Solidarity \nternational Press Service: A group of terrorists and drug traffickers linked to Playboy magazine met in New York City's Greenwich Village area and publicly discussed an assassination of President Ronald Reagan and Vice-President George Bush. The meeting convened by the Yippie organization, featured former Playboy editor Paul Krassner and numerous individuals associated with High Times magazine, Hustler magazine and the Chicago Sun-Times. In a statement this afternoon, national Democratic Policy Committee advisory board chairman Lyndon LaRouche urged that this information be made public at this time as a means of assisting government investigators pursuing the assassination attempt against President Reagan. Playboy magazine, as an international dossier released in the March 30, 1981, issue of New Solidarity indicates, is at the center of an international apparatus that has in the past been directly implicated in high-level political assassinations.

Alleged British Intelligence (Tavistock) and LaRouche Network Ties to 1950s Pornography and 1970s Anti‑Nuclear Protest Briefings

Alleged British Intelligence (Tavistock) and LaRouche Network Ties to 1950s Pornography and 1970s Anti‑Nuclear Protest Briefings The passage links a historic British intelligence institute (Tavistock) to U.S. political activist Lyndon LaRouche’s private intelligence network and claims they briefed state police on a 1970s anti‑nuclear protest. It provides specific names and a concrete event, offering a potential investigative angle (e.g., archival search for Tavistock‑related projects, LaRouche intelligence files, police briefing records). However, the claims are vague, lack dates, documents, or transaction details, and the Tavistock‑pornography connection is a long‑standing conspiracy trope, reducing novelty and verifiability. Key insights: Paul Krassner allegedly recruited by the Tavistock Institute in the early 1950s for pornographic satire.; Lyndon LaRouche’s private intelligence network reportedly briefed a state police lieutenant before a 1970s Seabrook nuclear plant protest.; The U.S. Labor Party’s newsletter was allegedly subscribed to by police departments nationwide.
