James DiEugenio

So far, its a decidedly mixed bag through the first three parts. I have finished part 2 of the review--parts 4-6-- and it will be going up tomorrow. I was very surprised that there were no recreations, which are easy to do for radio. And up to part 6, there is no discussion of JFK leaving Vietnam. My substack is still free so you can read it for nothing. https://substack.com/home/post/p-143648888?source=queue

Thanks Steve, I agree whole heartedly. That percentage was really stunning. Its not just us, its everyone. Its Jungian.

I posted that at Twitter. In got 30,000 impressions in one day. That is one of the highest numbers I ever got on my account there. Whew.

This is my latest interview about the book The JFK Assassination Chokeholds, plus the fate of the last classified records on the case still being withheld. Andrew Eiler wrote about that in the book so that is why it was brought up, in fact the book is the only one I know that deals with the latest info on the topic. I thought the interview turned out well, and Bruce put it on Rumble, so it will not be suppressed. Its a good one. https://rumble.com/v4ps0ei-reality-with-bruce-de-torres-11.-james-dieugenio.html

I agree Tom, this Down guy has really come out of the closet of late. Another WC zealot. Why was Tippit at the GLOCO for minutes on end watching the viaduct? Why did he pull over Andrews and look in the back of the car? Why did he have to make that call at the record store and then run out? How does one explain the behavior of Nelson if he was replying to the same order, which he was supposed to be doing? And how does one explain Mentzel? I wonder, who many wallets does Mr. Down carry? Oswald had five, including one at the scene of tenth and Patton. Which had to be deep sixed because he had another one on his person.

There WAS a dispute between Kennedy, the Fed and Wall Street. One of the best books ever written about Kennedy illustrates this, Battling Wall Street by Don Gibson. Kennedy's agent against them was James Saxon. https://www.kennedysandking.com/john-f-kennedy-articles/james-saxon-and-john-kennedy-vs-wall-street

Morrow contributed to Sean Fetter's two volume new set, which is an LBJ did it book. And its pretty awful. The first part of my review is up now at K and K. The second part will be up probably tomorrow, that is the LBJ part. BTW, you can find quotes by bth RFK and JFK that they were not going to dump Johnson in a second term. And if you cannot find them its because you are not looking for them.

Well, I would like to know Tucker Carlson's source for his program on the JFK case. I just wonder if it was Trump?

I agree with Andrew. it looks doubtful that we will ever get those last documents. Because the burden of proof has now been altered. The ARRB was a truly remarkable invention. And it worked while it lasted. Those days are now long gone. And congress sat by and did nothing to prevent it.

I wonder now if we will ever see those final classified records. I really do. And if not, why not? The executive branch completely coopted an act of congress. But it does not matter.

Sean and Bill have one of the best podcasts out there, I really mean that. They do a lot of good work. On their latest That's Enough Outta You, they have one of the co authors of The JFK Assassination Chokeholds, Andre Eiler. His contribution to the book on the legal side was extraordinary on both the doctrine of standards of proof--which neither the HSCA or Warren Commission had-- and the JFK Act violations. No other books that I have read has this kind of insight into those two areas of inquiry. Which I think are both very important. https://thatsenoughouttayou.buzzsprout.com/2064141/14852884

There is going to be a Celebration of his Life in New York. Its April 27th, at 11 am at 630 St. Nicholas Avenue in NYC, that is a funeral home. Wish I could attend.

Here is a tribute to him put together by Len Osanic. Its me, Dave Ratcliffe and John Barbour. This is why Black Op Radio is the best, and there is no second place. https://www.blackopradio.com/pod/black1194.mp3

Ron: That is not even his best book, I think his best one is Orders to Kill. That one was so disturbing that ABC sent out their hit man Forest Sawyer to ambush him.

According to Libby Handros, Pepper died on Sunday, four days ago. I still see no notice in the MSM. Its not even on Wikipedia. Incredible. This guy won an HBO mock trial on the King case, which was much more realistic than the Summers/Hoch outlined one for Thames TV rebroadcast on Showtime for the JFK case. He then would have gotten his client off if Judge Joe Brown had not been removed from the petition to reopen the King case in Memphis. He then did win a civil suit against Loyd Jowers in Memphis which proved the King case was a conspiracy. He then, with Laurie Dusek, filed a petition to reopen the RFK case in LA. I read it and I can tell you when you compare that with the state reply, Sirhan would have walked. But Kamala Harris was not going to let anything like that stand, since she had bigger goals than just being the AG in California. With all that behind, the MSM takes not one notice of the guy's passing?

Yes he did. Did the MSM just block this out?

This and an email from Johnny Cairns are the only notices I have seen. Click the X in the upper right.

I cannot believe someone is arguing for Markham today. Even Joe Ball said she was an "utter screwball" and they should not have used her. Liebeler felt the same.

Yes, I agree with that Gil. He was intimidated.

Here is Greg Olds' testimony. Everyone should read it to see how bad the DPD really was. https://history-matters.com/archive/jfk/wc/wcvols/wh7/pdf/WH7_Olds.pdf

Please, how anyone can take the versions of the DPD tapes seriously as evidence is utterly goofy. As far back as 1967 Sylvia Meagher questioned their authenticity because of the different versions. Joe McBride harpooned them on at least two specific points. We have an article coming in at K and K that goes even farther in that regard.

Why has no one mentioned what happened to Greg Olds? Its both important and revealing.

I think Pat left out a key point, revealed by Thompson. One of the prime movers behind knocking the acoustics evidence was Mr. Alvarez. Who was no expert in acoustics. Yet he was determined to move hell and high water to torpedo it. Sort of like his melon experiments with Paul Hoch.

Kennedy's attempt to include the left in Italy was called apertura, Italian for opening. This was anathema to the CIA since one of their early operations was to rig the 1948 Italian elections. And Angleton was a big part of that. Angleton was. so angry about this move on Kennedy's part that he started spreading rumors that Schlesinger was a commie. Clare Booth Luce, who was a former ambassador to Italy, also was angry with it. She wrote JFK a strident letter about it. Kennedy ignored this and became really interested in helping shift Italy from center-right to center-left. He even had the Reuther brothers help fund the socialist campaign. (Talbot, The Devil's Chessboard, pp. 465-457) But recall, Harvey had been shifted to Italy by Helms in order to save him from being fired by RFK. So he was station chief in Rome in 1963. So you had both Harvey, and Permindex there. Plus Lemnitzer was chief of NATO supervising Gladio. Harvey attended GLADIO meetings at a secret base in Sardinia.

This article, profusely illustrated, was one of the best pieces we ran in recent years. Rob Couteau talked to Willan, and he almost talked to Ganser, who delayed it until after the article ran. Its a really powerful piece that shows just how crazy the Cold War got in Italy and what the lethal results were. And it shows how Gladio was using the so called Red Brigades as a likely False Flag operation to install the strategy of tension, keep it in place and isolate the left. Kennedy, with advice from Schlesinger, was trying to change that. But let us not forget that Lemnitzer was now NATO commander in 1963 and Gladio fell under his auspices. https://www.kennedysandking.com/articles/nato-s-secret-armies-operation-gladio-and-jfk
