Civil War?

Some interesting items coming out of a recent Substack post by Seymour Hersh.  For those not familiar with Hersh, his story is one of fierce independence.  Hersh has been at the forefront of investigative journalism for decades.  The My Lai massacre expose earned Hersh a Pulitzer.  This was at a time when getting a Pulitzer really meant something.
