My mother learned to live in denial at a young age, after she lost her mother. She is not deranged. She just can't accept the truth. She doesn't want to know anything I'm telling her. I'm thinking, maybe, I should leave her alone. She's so old and it would probably put her in the nursing home if her eyes were opened this late in the game of life. But, then, what if shit hits the fan and they're freakin out, have no plan, not comprehending what is going on. My parents live in their own little Heaven. They absolutely have no clue. Their only news sources are propaganda. And, they think I'm a kook!
There is a long and very understandable write-up of the Bay of Pigs episode, based around an interview with one of the pilots who flew one of four B26 aircraft on behalf of the CIA, over Cuba in an effort to stir the puddin. It is in this book (which is a fascinating read, BTW): https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/24465/here-is-where-by-andrew-carroll/
Another good one Edwin. What amazes me Edwin …we all die but this military industrial complex lives on
Yeah, it is the closest thing to immortality, at least so far!
😢
Ray, thanks for the restack.
Heidi, Trudy, thanks for the restack, I appreciate it.
I think many people don’t want to believe in possible conspiracies because they don’t want to believe our leaders are that evil.

Fascinating stuff. That Jim Garrison response on NBC from 1967 is chilling but could have been given yesterday. Thanks for sharing it.
Interesting!
