Podcasts about charles guiteau

When James Garfield won the Presidency in 1880, Charles Guiteau got ready to accept his new government job. No one had actually offered him a job – but he'd campaigned for Garfield, so he assumed he'd be rewarded. That was the spoils system, and it was how the government worked.But President Garfield didn't hire him. Guiteau was furious. And on July 2, 1881, he followed Garfield to a Washington D.C. train station and shot him.Today on the show: how an assassination meant to restore the spoils system instead led to its end, and birthed the modern federal workforce.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

In the first half, author John Koerner joined guest host Richard Syrett (Twitter) to discuss the untold history surrounding the assassinations of four US presidents—Abraham Lincoln, James Garfield, William McKinley, and John F. Kennedy.Koerner highlighted lesser-known details about Lincoln's assassination, noting that John Wilkes Booth carried two Derringers, though only one is officially documented. Booth may have deliberately bought the weapon from a Philadelphia dealer named Abraham on Lincoln's birthday. He suggested Booth had ties to the Confederate Secret Service in Canada, possibly with British involvement, and questioned why this link isn't widely discussed. Koerner also examined security lapses, particularly Lincoln's guard's failure, and theories about Edwin Stanton aiding Booth's escape. Rumors persist that Booth survived rather than dying in a Virginia barn, he noted. Koerner speculated that Lincoln's second term could have advanced civil rights, potentially preventing the rise of the Ku Klux Klan.He argued that Garfield's assassination, though often overlooked, was pivotal in American history. A Civil War veteran, Garfield aimed to advance civil rights and reform corruption. His assassin, Charles Guiteau, used a British Bulldog revolver, but four of five bullets were defective. The weapon later vanished, fueling cover-up theories, Koerner revealed. Guiteau may have been manipulated by political forces, as Garfield's aides received a warning three days prior. Koerner suggested that figures like Senator Roscoe Conkling, who opposed Garfield's reforms, may have benefited from his death. Garfield's survival could have reshaped American democracy by revitalizing Reconstruction and dismantling corrupt political machines.Koerner drew parallels between McKinley's assassination and those of Garfield and JFK, noting all three could have survived without a second shot. McKinley was shot by anarchist Leon Czolgosz, who had mysteriously acquired large sums of money before the attack. Suspicious elements include a man known only as "the Italian" distracting security and the disappearance of key photographic evidence and the murder weapon, he explained. Koerner pointed out that McKinley's pro-business stance made him a target, as his successor, Theodore Roosevelt, aggressively pursued trust-busting and foreign policy changes, hinting that McKinley's death may have shifted America's direction.Regarding JFK's assassination, Koerner questioned the official narrative, particularly the rifle used. Initial reports identified a German Mauser, later changed to an Italian Mannlicher-Carcano, which was adjusted for a left-handed shooter, though Lee Harvey Oswald was right-handed. The timeline of Oswald's actions is also disputed, as he was inside a theater when Officer J.D. Tippit was killed. A paraffin test found no gunpowder on Oswald's cheek, suggesting he hadn't fired a rifle. Koerner linked Kennedy's death to conflicts with financial and oil interests, comparing it to Lincoln and Jackson's opposition to centralized banking, implying JFK was targeted for political and economic reasons rather than by a lone gunman.

This nonfiction account of our nation's 20th president will knock your socks off.  Destiny of the Republic, A Tale of Madness, Medicine, and the Murder of a President by Candice Millard gives readers an amazing glimpse into the past. We get a front seat to the election of a man who did not want to be president but was willing to get out of his comfort zone for the good of the country, appealing to God for aid in the trial before him. He made great strides to bring a divided country together, yet little is known about James A. Garfield, “a man incapable of carrying a grudge, a poor hater but a good fighter.”.  Fatherless before the age of 2, Garfield grew up in abject poverty. Interestingly enough, so did Charles Guiteau, the man who shot him. What determined their vastly different paths? The big difference was attitude. “Garfield rose quickly through the layers of society, not with aggression or even overt ambition, but with a passionate love of learning.” Guiteau believed he was entitled to special treatment, his work ethic was almost non-existent. He survived by asking men for money when necessary or just not paying bills when he could get away with it.,  The real cause of Garfield's death surprised us, pride ended up being the culprit. Please join us as we unpack the sad facts about the disbelief doctors had about germs and the unwillingness of Dr. Bliss to listen to others which caused Garfield to suffer needlessly. “Ignorance is Bliss” is a quote that now has a new meaning. On the other side of the coin, there were helpful caring people who worked tirelessly to help the president (air-conditioning was invented by the Navy and Alexander Graham Bell worked on an invention to find the bullet). Garfield's many quotes are true gems, “I'd rather be beaten in Right than succeed in Wrong.”

This Day in Legal History: Guiteau Stands Trial for AssassinationOn November 14, 1881, Charles Guiteau stood trial for assassinating President James A. Garfield. Garfield had been shot by Guiteau in July of that year but succumbed to his injuries months later, largely due to medical mismanagement. At the time, sterilization practices were not widely understood or practiced, and Garfield's doctors repeatedly probed his wound with unwashed instruments and hands, leading to a fatal infection. Despite the role of inadequate medical care, Guiteau was held fully responsible for the president's death, setting a notable precedent in criminal law.Guiteau's defense centered on claims of insanity, arguing that he believed he was acting on divine command to remove Garfield. His erratic behavior in court, which included singing, reciting poetry, and accusing his defense attorneys of incompetence, underscored his unstable mental state. However, nineteenth-century legal standards for insanity were narrow and rarely accepted by courts. The prosecution argued that Guiteau understood the wrongfulness of his act, and he was ultimately found guilty and sentenced to death.The case spotlighted serious deficiencies in the legal system's treatment of mental illness and brought attention to the need for clearer guidelines on the insanity defense. It also ignited a broader conversation on the role of medical practices in causation, as some questioned whether Guiteau could be solely responsible for Garfield's death. Guiteau's trial and conviction marked one of the first high-profile uses of the insanity defense in the United States and influenced subsequent legal reforms regarding both mental health assessments and standards of criminal responsibility.President-elect Donald Trump has named Matt Gaetz, a firebrand Republican congressman with a face that might terrify even the devil himself, as his nominee for attorney general. Gaetz, who has previously faced scrutiny from the Justice Department over sex trafficking allegations, will replace current leadership to help Trump “end Weaponized Government” and enact an aggressive conservative agenda. Gaetz, who resigned from Congress immediately, is known for his unconventional political moves, including his role in ousting former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, and for his call to dismantle federal agencies like the FBI. His appointment has already triggered controversy, with Senate Republicans like Lisa Murkowski expressing skepticism about his qualifications and intentions. Gaetz's background has raised security clearance concerns, given the history of investigations into his conduct.The nomination aligns with Trump's stated intentions to reshape the Justice Department, positioning the attorney general as crucial to plans for mass deportations, pardons of January 6 rioters, and prosecutorial retribution. Gaetz's legal experience consists mainly of work at a Florida law firm before he entered politics, though he has recently championed populist stances on antitrust enforcement, supporting the Federal Trade Commission's fight against noncompete clauses and cheering the Justice Department's antitrust case against Google. Gaetz's nomination fuels concern among former Justice Department officials, who fear that he could further politicize an institution traditionally independent from White House influence.Trump taps firebrand congressman Matt Gaetz for attorney general | ReutersIn the corruption trial of former U.S. Senator Robert Menendez, prosecutors revealed that jurors were mistakenly shown unredacted evidence during deliberations. However, they argued this error does not warrant overturning the conviction, asserting that the evidence against Menendez was overwhelming. Menendez, a former New Jersey senator, was convicted in August of corruption charges that included accepting bribes like gold bars and cash, allegedly in exchange for political favors. He has maintained his innocence and plans to appeal. The Manhattan U.S. Attorney's Office indicated that both the defense and prosecution missed the unredacted material during trial, emphasizing that it likely did not affect the jury's guilty verdict on all 16 counts, including wire fraud, obstruction of justice, and illegal foreign agency activities. Menendez, once a senior figure in the Senate as the chair of the foreign relations committee, now faces sentencing in January with a potential for decades in prison.Bob Menendez jury was mistakenly shown improper evidence, prosecutors say | ReutersGary Wang, former chief technology officer of FTX, is assisting federal prosecutors by developing software to detect fraud in both stock and cryptocurrency markets. Wang, who previously wrote the code allowing ex-FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried to siphon billions from FTX customers, has been cooperating with the government since FTX's collapse. Prosecutors are asking for leniency in Wang's upcoming sentencing, highlighting his proactive efforts to prevent similar crimes. His new tool, details of which remain confidential to protect its effectiveness, is valued by prosecutors for its potential in identifying financial crimes. This cooperation follows Bankman-Fried's recent 25-year prison sentence for fraud and misuse of $8 billion in customer funds, while other former FTX associates, like Caroline Ellison and Nishad Singh, received lighter sentences due to their cooperation. Wang, the last of Bankman-Fried's close associates awaiting sentencing, was instrumental in exposing the scheme by testifying that Bankman-Fried directed him to alter FTX's code to grant Alameda Research unauthorized access to customer funds.Bankman-Fried lieutenant builds fraud detection tool for prosecutors | ReutersA federal appeals court has struck down a New York law that heavily restricted antiques dealers from selling or displaying ivory and rhinoceros horn items, ruling it unconstitutional. The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals found that the law, which limited ivory content in antiques to less than 20%, overstepped by restricting dealers' First Amendment commercial speech rights. Judges argued that the law prevented dealers from communicating important details about legally marketable items, deeming this an excessive speech restriction. While federal law already restricts ivory sales under the Endangered Species Act, it allows for goods with up to 50% ivory, whereas New York's stricter limit of 20% was intended to curb poaching of endangered species. However, the court ruled that New York's law also blocked the sale of items permitted in interstate and international trade, making it too broad. The decision was a setback for animal rights groups that supported the law to protect vulnerable wildlife, although the Humane Society noted that New York could still enforce the law against local buyers.New York ivory ban for antiques dealers voided by US appeals court | ReutersLaw firm revenue surged nearly 12% in the first three quarters of the year, driven by increased demand for legal services and higher productivity, according to Citi's law firm banking group. The top 50 law firms saw especially notable gains, with revenues up 14%, demand growth at 3.6%, and productivity rising by 2.9%. Gretta Rusanow from Citi's Law Firm Group highlighted 2023 as potentially one of the strongest years for the industry, citing steady demand momentum quarter by quarter. Industry-wide demand rose by 3.2%, with lawyer productivity improving as headcount growth slowed to 1.3%, returning to historical norms. Expense growth was 7.5%, with overhead costs increasing by 8.2% and compensation expenses by 6.7%. Legal services demand spanned diverse practice areas, notably in litigation, regulatory issues, investment management, and bankruptcy. Although transactional demand has been quiet, Rusanow anticipates a rebound in mergers and acquisitions activity. Law firms also invested in technology upgrades, including new practice management tools and generative AI, which contributed to higher expenses. Law Firm Revenue Soars 12% as Lawyers Get Back to Being Busy This is a public episode.

Abraham Lincoln, James Garfield, William McKinley y John Fitzgerald Kennedy fueron presidentes de Estados Unidos en distintos momentos, pero, aparte del hecho de ocupar la presidencia, compartieron un destino común: los cuatro fueron asesinados mientras estaban en el cargo. El primero de ellos fue Abraham Lincoln en 1865. El país no tenía ni un siglo de historia y la guerra civil estaba a punto de concluir. El 14 de abril de aquel año un pistolero llamado John Wilkes Booth le disparó en la nuca cuando el presidente asistía a una representación teatral en Washington. El asesinato de Lincoln era la parte más importante de un complot de los confederados para revertir una derrota segura. Abatieron al presidente, pero no a sus otros dos objetivos: el vicepresidente y el secretario de Estado. Consiguieron todo lo contrario de lo que se proponían. Lincoln fue ascendido a categoría de héroe nacional y como tal se le recuerda hoy. No muchos años después, en 1881 fue tiroteado en una estación ferroviaria de Washington el presidente James Garfield, que había tomado posesión del cargo el 4 de marzo, sólo unos meses antes. Garfield era republicano y en aquellos momentos el partido se encontraba muy dividido. Un miembro del partido, decepcionado porque no le habían dado un cargo, Charles Guiteau, decidió vengarse aprovechando que el presidente iba a tomar un tren para pasar las vacaciones. El 2 de julio se dirigió armado con un pequeño revolver a la estación de Baltimore y Potomac, se acercó al presidente y le disparó a quemarropa por la espalda. Garfield no murió en el acto, fue trasladado a la Casa Blanca con una bala en el cuerpo, pero aún pasarían casi tres meses hasta que a finales de septiembre murió víctima de una sepsis. Veinte años más tarde, en septiembre de 1901 caería asesinado el tercer presidente, pero esta vez no sería en Washington, sino en Búfalo, una ciudad al norte del Estado de Nueva York adonde había viajado para darse un baño de multitudes durante la celebración de la Exposición Panamericana. Esta vez el asesino fue un anarquista de Detroit llamado Leon Czolgosz. McKinley acababa de estrenar su segundo mandato y era un presidente muy popular. Tras visitar la exposición quiso estrechar la mano personalmente de tantos asistentes como fuera posible en el palacio de la música, uno de los pabellones más vistosos de la exposición. Ese era el momento que Czolgosz esperaba para poder acercarse al presidente y dispararle a corta distancia con un revolver que llevaba escondido en la mano debajo de un pañuelo. Tuvo tiempo de disparar dos veces. La primera bala fue desviada por un botón, la segunda penetró en su abdomen. Pero, como ya le ocurrió a Garfield, McKinley no murió ese día. Fue llevado de urgencia a la enfermería de la exposición donde intentaron sin éxito extraerle la bala. Quedó en observación en la casa del presidente de la exposición y allí moriría una semana más tarde víctima de la gangrena. Que tres presidentes fuesen asesinados en un lapso tan breve de tiempo provocó que se extremasen las medidas de seguridad. Fue tras el asesinato de McKinley cuando el Congreso pidió a Servicio Secreto, dedicado hasta entonces a perseguir la falsificación de moneda, se encargase también de la seguridad presidencial. Eso no impidió que seis décadas después fuese asesinado el presidente Kennedy en Dallas. Este magnicidio es el más reciente y también el más conocido ya que dio lugar a todo tipo de teorías de la conspiración a cada cual más imaginativa. El de Kennedy fue un asesinato mucho más elaborado que los anteriores. Corrió a cargo de un tirador, Lee Harvey Oslwald, que esperó a que la caravana presidencial pasase por delante de un almacén en el que se había apostado con un rifle dotado de mira telescópica. El presidente viajaba en una limusina descubierta junto a su esposa y el gobernador de Texas. La muerte fue instantánea y eso puso en marcha de inmediato la sucesión presidencial. El vicepresidente Lyndon B. Johnson tuvo que jurar el cargo apresuradamente a bordo del Air Force One. Desde entonces han intentado asesinar a los sucesivos presidentes en varias ocasiones, pero sin éxito. Hoy en La ContraHistoria vamos a repasar los primeros tres magnicidios que conmocionaron a Estados Unidos y que, en última instancia, han hecho de sus presidentes los mandatarios mejor protegidos del mundo. El cuarto, el de Kennedy, mucho mejor documentado, lo veremos en el siguiente capítulo.

The story of Charles Guiteau and his attack on President James A. Garfield is a gripping tale of ambition, delusion, and tragedy. Charles Guiteau, a troubled and erratic individual, became fixated on President Garfield and convinced himself that he was destined to play a significant role in American politics. His unrelenting quest for recognition and power culminated in a fateful encounter on July 2, 1881, when he shot and fatally wounded President Garfield at a Washington, D.C. train station. This dramatic event not only shocked the nation but also underscored the vulnerabilities of political leaders and the profound consequences of mental instability. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/plausibly-live/message

Because Charles Guiteau was a goddamn crazy person of the highest order. The leaps and mental gymnastics this dude makes throughout his life would make Charles Manson blink in confusion. It's a hell of a rollercoaster, but it's a damn fun one. So enjoy!

In 1881, President James Garfield was assassinated by a man named Charles Guiteau. The American public, understandably, wanted vengeance. But as the government began to prepare for Guiteau's trial, a problem emerged: Guiteau, some experts believed, was insane, and might not have been responsible for his actions. Could justice be achieved in a case like this? Guiteau's dramatic trial put that question to the test...See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In 1848, a group of religious perfectionists, led by John Humphrey Noyes, established a commune in Oneida, New York, where they lived and worked together. Women in the community had certain freedoms compared to the outside world, in both dress and occupation. What captured the attention of the outside world, though, were the sexual practices of the Oneidans, who believed in complex marriage where every man and every woman in the community were married to each other and where birth control was achieved via male continence.  Joining me to discuss the Oneida community, and its most infamous resident, presidential assassin Charles Guiteau, is New York Times bestselling writer Susan Wels, author of An Assassin in Utopia: The True Story of a Nineteenth-Century Sex Cult and a President's Murder.

On July 2, 1881, President James A. Garfield was shot in Washington, DC by Charles Guiteau.

All Bones Considered: Laurel Hill Stories #044 - Sam Randall, Dr. D. Hayes Agnew, Dr. CK Mills, and the Garfield Memorial: Laurel Hill & Some James Garfield Connections, part 3 Local anatomist Dr. Charles K. Mills, MD, performed autopsy on the assassin Charles Guiteau.  Parts of his brain ended up in the Mütter Museum. 

James Abram Garfield was the 20th President of the United States, a “dark horse” candidate in the 1880 election and the only sitting member of the house to ever be elected to the highest office in the land.  His time as president was short, and four months into his term he was shot by a crazed office seeker in Washington.  After lingering for 10 weeks, he died in New Jersey.  What are his Laurel Hill connections?  * Philadelphia's Samuel Jackson Randall defeated Garfield for Speaker of the House three times before Garfield leapfrogged him to become President.  *University of Pennsylvania's Dr. David Hayes Agnew, probably the best surgeon in the country, was summoned to Garfield's bedside as a consultant after he was shot.  *Penn's Dr. Charles Karsner Mills testified against Garfield's assassin Charles Guiteau and then assisted in Guiteau's autopsy.  *Numerous Laurel Hill residents were involved in the grand unveiling of the Garfield Memorial in 1896.  You have probably passed it dozens of times along Kelly Drive.  This and more in All Bones Considered: Laurel Hill Stories #44 – Laurel Hill's James Garfield Connections. 

Charles Julius Guiteau fue un escritor y abogado estadounidense conocido por asesinar al presidente de los Estados Unidos James A. Garfield el 2 de julio de 1881.

In 1880, James A. Garfield, the 20th president of the United States, was shot in the back by Charles Guiteau. Guiteau was a disgruntled office seeker who was upset that he had not been given a position in Garfield's administration. Garfield was rushed to the hospital and doctors tried to find the bullet with a metal detector, but the metal detector was not sensitive enough and they were unable to find the bullet. Garfield died two months later. In 2016, a Canadian teenager named William Gadoury claimed to have discovered a lost Mayan city using Google Earth. Gadoury had noticed that the layout of the city matched the layout of the constellations in the night sky. However, Gadoury's discovery was later debunked by archaeologists who said that the city was not a lost city, but a natural formation. ### - https://www.cracked.com/article_32660_the-first-metal-detector-failed-to-save-garfield-from-a-bullet.html - https://www.smh.com.au/technology/canadian-teen-william-gadourys-discovery-of-mayan-city-debunked-as-junk-science-20160511-gosa26.html

In which ships collide, lawyers are arrested, and coitus gets interruptus'd. Part 1 of 'The Life and Getting Shot of James Garfield' 

Did you know that if lots of people  have lots of unprotected sex and the men never ejaculate you can help Jesus create his kingdom on Earth?  No? Well then you would NOT have been accepted into the Oneida Community Cult and you would've never gotten to live in a 93,000  square foot compound in Oneida, NY with around three hundred other followers.  This is just one of the super crazy messages John Humphrey Noyes  taught the followers living in his community. He also taught them that he was perfect. Literally perfect. And then, when he finally had to flee the country or be arrested for having sex with underage girls, his followers went on to built the largest silverware company North America had ever seen.

After going out and partying too hard last week Mattie and Austin recover just in time to bring you a new episode! James Garfield's assassination gets overshadowed by Lincoln and JFKs deaths. but it really shouldn't be. and Austin tells you why this week by covering the insane life of presidential assassin, thief, street preacher, poet, and sex cult reject Charles Guiteau. this topic just goes in 1,000,000 different directions and was just a wild ride to research. Then, Mattie delivers her in depth research on the legality, morality, ethics, and practical concerns of the hobby of collecting human skulls. you can hear Austin's jaw hit the floor a few times. (This is an expression. his jaw is fine and he did not purchase a human jaw to drop during Mattie's segment.

In this episode, Steve interviews comedian and TikTok sensation Sam Ramsdell, who also holds the record for the largest mouth gape. Sam talks about what it's like to embrace your "weirdness," which in her case comes with saying things like "Make America Gape Again" in a very PG way, and her recent leap of faith leaving her corporate job to do comedy full-time. But first, Steve reveals the true history behind the term "Big Mouth" and many interesting characters along the way, including the man who assassinated James Garfield (and probably had syphilis), Charles Guiteau.

In this episode we interviewed Owen Dwyer, the author of the fantastic new book 'The Garfield Conspiracy'. The description of this fascinating new book reads: 'Richard Todd, an award-winning writer, is outwardly successful but inwardly plagued by uncertainties. Worst of all, he can't seem to write any more. When a bright young editor, Jenny Lambe, arrives on his doorstep to work with him on his latest book, about the assassination of US president James Garfield, his life is sent spinning off in a new direction.President Garfield was killed by Charles Guiteau, who was tried and hanged for the murder. But was he acting along, or was there a more sinister force at work? Richard hears Guiteau's voice in his head, and as his relationship with Jenny deepens, he is visited by other characters in the drama. Are they helping Richard solve the mystery surrounding Garfield's murder – or pushing him further towards the edge?A remarkable, disturbing portrait of a middle-aged man torn between his carefully constructed life and new adventures which may beckon, in the present and the past, from one of Ireland's most exciting emerging authors.'The author Owen Dwyer is a prize-winning short-story writer who has won the Hennessy Emerging Fiction Prize, the Silver Quill (twice), the Smiling Politely Very Very Short Story competition, the South Tipperary County Council Short Story competition and the Biscuit Fiction Prize, and has had stories published in Whispers and Shouts magazine. His previous novel, Number Games, was published to glowing reviews by Liberties Press in 2019, and follows The Cherry-picker (2012) and The Agitator (2004). Owen lives in Dublin with his wife and their three children.

We all know of a couple of the most popular U.S. presidential assassins in history (e.g., John Wilkes Booth). But what about those who aren’t talked about?  Meet Richard Lawrence and Charles Guiteau. Richard Lawrence in 1835 stalked and attempted to murder President Andrew Jackson. And in 1881, Charles Guiteau succeeded in killing President James Garfield. Today, we’ll learn of what led up to the two incidents, and even how mental illness may have come into play.

When he was shot by assassin Charles Guiteau, President James Garfield was robbed of his place in history. He would forever be relegated to obscurity.

Welcome to the tale of #20, James A. Garfield, and his assassin, Charles Guiteau. Pay attention, because prostitutes will give you syphilis, most cults are for loonies, and lower legs are hot.

Lavelle and Chance discuss the Curse of Tecumseh, the miasma theory, various medical advances and the strange assassination of President James Garfield by Charles Guiteau.

James Garfield delivered his inaugural address on March 4th, 1881. Read by John Greenman. Much like Lincoln's nearly two decade before him, James Garfield was assassinated. But whereas Lincoln had served a full term, Garfield was granted just a little over six months. He was the iconic “self-made man”, rising from working on a canal boat to the highest office in the land. He supported abolition and black suffrage, though that only went so far. His assassin, Charles Guiteau, committed the heinous act for what amounted to being passed over for a job. The cover art is an 1881 portrait of James Garfield by Calvin Curtis.

Chester Arthur was sworn in as the 21st President of The United States in 1881 when Charles Guiteau assassinated President James Garfield. Arthur was thought to be a pawn to political machine boss Roscoe "Boss" Conkling, but Arthur distanced himself from the Stalwarts during his short term.

It's the time of year where we here at HPH hop in our magical history van and hit the highway for our summer road trip. Greg drives and stews in anger. Chris rides shotgun with his disgusting feet on the dash while eating funyuns and singing showtunes. Wolf Dick flops helplessly around the cargo compartment in his Weekend at Bernie's cosplay. And Dan, Dan, the Intro Man stares at his phone and gets super annoyed when we stop at every historical marker on the road.

“Garfield is, I think, one of the greatest tragedies in the American presidency.  He's a man who held such promise for the country at a time where we really were on this path, this post-Civil War path of hopefully bringing the country forward.  He had such great ideas, he was so smart, so compassionate and then to have his presidency cut down, to me, is such a tragedy."Tour Guide Tell All delves into the unlikely stories of Charles Guiteau, a madman struggling to find his place in the world, and James Garfield, a man who worked his way from nothing to become a soldier, a scholar, and a statesman, and how their two lives intersect and end in blood.Join us as we discuss politics, assassination, sex cults, and the Civil War  - plus a Broadway musical for good measure!Comments or Questions?

Four times as the President of the United States been assassinated. But only once was it by a serial masturbator that was so strange he was kicked out of a religious, silverware-making sex cult.

The assassination of a beloved president by a deranged traveling preacher/failed lawyer/office seeker and the medical malpractice that failed him. It's of course, the tragic assassination of James A. Garfield!

“Dr Doctor give me the news. I’ve got a bad case of having been shot in the back.” James Garfield has been shot in a time when doctors are more dangerous than bullets. Charles Guiteau has shot James Garfield in a time when shooting the president is even more dangerous than doctors. The dramatic conclusionContinue reading "s2e3 Dr Doctor give me the news."

1356 English forces under Edward the Black Prince defeat the French at Battle of Poitiers and capture the French King John II. The Battle of Poitiers was a major English victory in the Hundred Years' War. Edward, the Black Prince, led an army of English, Welsh, Breton and Gascon troops, many of them veterans of the Battle of Crécy. They were attacked by a larger French force led by King John II of France, which included allied Scottish forces. The French were heavily defeated; an English counter-attack captured King John II along with his youngest son and much of the French nobility. Jean de Venette, a Carmelite friar, vividly describes the chaos that ensued following the battle. The demise of the French nobility at the battle, only ten years from the catastrophe at Crécy, threw the kingdom into chaos. The realm was left in the hands of the Dauphin Charles, who faced popular rebellion across the kingdom in the wake of the defeat. Jean writes that the French nobles brutally repressed the rebellions, robbing, despoiling, and pillaging the peasants' goods. Mercenary companies hired by both sides added to the destruction, plundering the peasants and the churches. Poitiers was the second major English victory of the Hundred Years' War. Poitiers was fought ten years after the Battle of Crécy (the first major victory), and about half a century before the third, the Battle of Agincourt (1415). 1692 A part of the Salem Witch Trials, Giles Corey is pressed to death for standing mute and refusing to answer charges of witchcraft brought against him. He is the only person in America to have suffered this punishment. Giles Corey seems to have been a man of steel; as he was steadfast in refusal to plead, nor did he cry out in pain as the rocks were added on the boards. After two days, Corey was asked three times to enter a plea, but each time he replied, "More weight." 1881 President James A. Garfield, who had been in office just under four months, succumbs to wounds inflicted by an assassin 80 days earlier, on July 2. Garfield's assassin was an attorney and political office-seeker named Charles Guiteau. Guiteau was a relative stranger to the president and his administration in an era when federal positions were doled out on a “who you know” basis. When his requests for an appointment were ignored, a furious Guiteau stalked the president, vowing revenge. Guiteau was deemed sane by a jury, convicted of murder and hanged on June 30, 1882. Garfield's spine, which shows the hole created by the bullet, is kept as a historical artifact by the National Museum of Health and Medicine in Washington, D.C. 1944 Hürtgen Forest swallows up an advancing US army. Allied forces advance eastward after the Normandy invasion, and as the US 60th Infantry Regiment enters Germany's Hürtgen Forest, a bloody fight begins that will be named the longest single battle in US Army history, and later almost forgotten in the shadow of the Battle of the Bulge. The battle of the Hurtgen ended in a German defensive victory and the whole offensive was a dismal failure for the Allies The Americans suffered between 33,000 - 55,000 casualties, included 9,000 non-combat losses and represented a 25 percent casualty rate. The Germans had also suffered heavy losses with 28,000 casualties - many of these were non combat and prisoners of war. 2010 Oil rig Deepwater Horizon is declared sealed after a 5-month long spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Thought to be one of the biggest accidents in the oil and gas industry, the Deepwater Horizon spill or the BP oil spill began on April 20, 2010, when an explosion destroyed the rig and killed 11 people.

After being shot by Charles Guiteau, President James Garfield manages to survive for 80 days. However, because his doctors failed to adhere to modern medical practices, Garfield suffers a long and painful death. Meanwhile, the delusional Charles Guiteau eagerly awaits his rescue by Chester A. Arthur as the gallows pole comes closer and closer into view.

On the morning of July 2, 1881, President James Garfield entered the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad Station in Washington, DC ready to leave for vacation. As he walked through the waiting room, he was suddenly shot in the back by a man angry that he hadn’t received a position in Garfield’s administration, Charles Guiteau.

May 1881, a disgruntled man stalks the president from the shadows down Pennsylvania Avenue. Disheveled and unpopular, Charles Guiteau allows his delusions of grandeur to lead him into committing the terrible murder of President James Garfield. This first episode of a three part series gives us a peek into the psychology of a madman and the forgotten legacy of a president. Sources: Destiny of the Republic: A Tale of Madness, Medicine and the Murder of a Presidenthttps://amzn.to/30zdYga Discuss This Episode:https://www.facebook.com/groups/footnotes

On July 2nd, 1881, a disappointed and mentally unstable office-seeker named Charles Guiteau shot President James A. Garfield in a Washington D.C. train station. Over the next weeks, Garfield would linger, bedridden, as infection set in, caused by poor medical treatment, and America would wait with bated breath over whether their beloved president would survive.

The Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act was a direct reaction to the assassination of President James Garfield, who was killed by Charles Guiteau because Guiteau believed he deserved a government appointment. The issue of civil service reform was a long simmering political issue, with the main ire being directed at the spoils system, which gave jobs to political donors. Despite the assasination of Garfield, a bill for civil service reform seemed unlikely to be signed by the new President, Chester A. Arthur. Arthur was a "Stalwart," one of the chief opponents in the Republican Party to reform, and a former Collector of the Port of New York, a job he got through the spoils system. Yet Arthur seemed to see the need for change, and passed the law initiated by Ohio Senator George Pendleton. After that, the Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act would drastically change the way the American government worked.

On this episode, we cover the major sprouts of Mormonism which sprang from the fertile religion Nauvoo soil. From the Strangites, to Whiteites, to Josephites, to Brighamites, to Godbeites, and back to Brighamites again, every major faction of Mormonism seems to have a highly polarized stance on polygamy. Politics plays it’s role as laws are passed in attempt to outlaw the twins of barbarism, slavery and polygamy, largely aimed at curtailing the religious overreach of the Mormon theocracy in Utah. This is part 3 in a multi-part series on the history of polygamy.

Shortly after being elected president of the United States, James Garfield was shot by Charles Guiteau. But contrary to what is written in most history books, Garfield didn’t linger and die. He survived. Alexander Graham Bell raced against time to invent the world’s first metal detector to locate the bullet in Garfield’s body so that doctors could safely operate. Despite Bell’s efforts to save Garfield, however, and as never before fully revealed, the interventions of Garfield’s friend and doctor, Dr. D. W. Bliss, brought about the demise of the nation’s twentieth president. But why would a medical doctor engage in such monstrous behavior? Did politics, petty jealousy, or failed aspirations spark the fire inside Bliss that led him down the path of homicide? Rosen proves how depraved indifference to human life—second-degree murder—rather than ineptitude led to Garfield’s drawn-out and painful death. Now, more than one hundred years later, historian and homicide investigator Fred Rosen reveals through newly accessed documents and Bell’s own correspondence the long list of Bliss’s criminal acts and malevolent motives that led to his murder of the president. MURDERING THE PRESIDENT: Alexander Graham Bell and the Race to Save James Garfield-Fred Rosen and Hank Garfield.
