They had lots of time to create reams of fiction.
These people put L ron hubbard to shame
Oh come on….not necessary.

I’m very interested in this. Is there a ping list? If so, please add me.
I don’t know of one, sorry.
Is there any way to easily/quickly gather all the reply user names?
I’d be happy to read many of them, I actually met JFK before he was prez. Brief. Hi, how are you. Too young to vote, already a Republican. But cried when he was murdered. Saw it on TV.
OMG. You read them and pick out those that matter, if you please.
Thanks.
Thanks for the bowl-clogger.
Why don’t you take a poll.
I performed a service.
Thank you.
I agree but I would add TR (I know he was’t the current president but he was running again) as he was shot as well...
He created National Parks to remove some special places from development...disliked by ‘Big Business’
Yes, possibly.
Who knows what really goes on behind the scenes.
Right before the gap in Nixon’s Watergate tapes he says something like “It will bring up the whole Cuban thing.”
I always thought that may have been related to Kennedy’s assassination and the involvement of the CIA or Johnson or something.
The Cuban “plumbers” used by Nixon have been rumored to be tied into Kennedy somehow.
Years after coming up with that idea on my own, I think it was Halderman in his book that believes that was what Nixon was referring to. Who knows.
And - I’m not implying Nixon had anything to do with it - but he was attempting to protect the CIA or presidential office in general.
Nixon tried really hard (employing dirty tricks, etc.) to prevent the release of “The Pentagon Papers”. But those documents were related to President Johnson’s terrible handling of the war. Nixon could have used them for his political gain, but instead didn’t want America (or the war effort) to be weakened.
Andrew Johnson may have been our second. Although the Radical Republicans failed to oust him, he was pretty much neutralized following his impeachment.
“Lincoln was our first presidential coup,...”
But what if the plot had failed completely? How would we remember Lincoln today? His plans for Southern ‘Reconstruction’ would have been strenuously opposed by the ‘Radical Republicans’ in the House and Senate who wanted the South treated much more harshly than Lincoln.
As a war-time President, Lincoln could wield a lot of power in his role as Commander-in-Chief. But after the South’s surrender, I doubt if Congress would have willingly let Lincoln run the show. One of those ‘what if’ questions that can make history so interesting.
“I performed a service.”
My scrolling fingers thank you for today’s workout.
“I performed a service.”
Uh huh, that’s obvious by its overwhelmingly positive reception.
I agree, FRiend.
Merry Christmas!
Good post.
The primary Nixon connection was E. Howard Hunt.
His deathbed confessions are found here:
https://www.amazon.com/Bond-Secrecy-Watergate-Conspirator-Howard/dp/1936296837
Hunt claimed (accurately imho) that he was in charge of the CIA logistics for the assassination “operation”.
My view is that Nixon did not know this in 1963 but later learned of it through his many CIA and other connections.
I agree with your interpretation of that Nixon tape on the “Bay of Pigs thing”.
It’s not just metadata.
