J. Edgar Hoover and Clyde Tolson were an item over the course of decades.

Hoover denied the existence of organized crime until the 1957 Appalachin arrest of four dozen gang leaders in upper New York State embarrassed him.

He and Clyde were perennial guests of mob-owned race tracks and resorts.

The crusading anti-communist figured prominently in the coverup behind the absurd Warren Commission.

The man viscerally despised the Kennedys, was a neighbor and friend of Johnson for years.

William Sullivan was the opposite number to James Jesus Angleton and was shot dead before he could testify before the HSCA, having had a total fall from grace with the dictatorial director.

From the "love that dare not speak its name" and the stylish matching attire of the Hoover and Tolson pair America has transitioned to the Boy King and his body person Reggie Love.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.--Jerry Seinfeld

<Off-topic> The actor who portrayed Agent Tolson in J. Edgar is Armie Hammer. He's the great-grandson of Armand Hammer. I knew his father, Michael Hammer, at Occidental (Oxy) Petroleum in Houston in 1983-4.

Young Armie spent the early 90's (about the time his dad was inheriting, after the old man died) in the Cayman Islands. Nice to have a family foothold there.

Armie Hammer broke out as an actor in The Social Network the year before J. Edgar appeared, in a double role as the Winklevoss twins (the Harvard rowing twins who were the first two people Mark Zuckerberg sharped/screwed on his way to giga-wealth with Facebook).

Thanks for the post.
