“But I trust them (Wikipedia) not at all when it comes to anything political, cultural, or related to the Deep State (and Hoover was definitely Deep State).”

Fair enough on the critique of Wikipedia. I only used them when you gave permission to Goggle the dispute.

My point: Hoover made many enemies over his decades of service including organized crime, KKK, politicians, communists, media, and liberals. He once called Martin Luther King a notorious liar which rankled a lot of people.

The allegation about cross-dressing was made at a time when cross-dressing was frowned upon. And I have not seem any real evidence from credible sources - mostly someone said that they heard somebody say that someone's fourth wife said she saw someone that she thought looked a lot like JEH . . . but even that is not clear.

Thanks for touching base. When Free Republic conversations are civil (like this one is) I often gain new perspectives.

Regards, and Happy New Year.
