Explores the murder of Mary Pinchot Meyer and her connected to President KennedyIdeal book for fans of The Devil's Chessboard by David Talbot, The Reporter Who Knew Too Much by Dorothy Kilgallen, Dr. Mary's Monkey by Edward T. Haslam, and other JFK conspiracy booksUpdated edition of the true crime expose, including new evidence and government documents corroborating the conspiracy to assassinate JFK's trusted ally and final true loveThe death of Mary Meyer left many Americans with questions. Who really killed her? Why did CIA counterintelligence chief James Angleton rush to find and confiscate her diary? Had she discovered the plan to assassinate her lover, President Kennedy, with the trail of information ending at the steps of the CIA? Was it only coincidence that she was killed less than three weeks after the release of the Warren Commission Report?Fans of The Murder of Mary Russell, JFK: A Vision for America, and other JFK books will love Mary's Mosaic. Building and relying on years of interviews and painstaking research, author Peter Janney follows the key events and influences in Mary Pinchot Meyer's life—her first meeting with Jack Kennedy; her support of her secret lover, President Kennedy, as he worked towards the pursuit of world peace and away from the Cold War; and her exploration of psychedelic drugs. Fifty years after the assassinations of President Kennedy and Mary Meyer, this book helps readers understand why both took place. Author Peter Janney fought for two years to obtain documents from the National Personnel Records Center and the US Army to complete this third edition. It includes a final chapter about the mystery man who could be the missing piece to learn the truth behind Meyer's murder.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

THANKS TO ANDREW FOR MAKING THE INTRO SONG. (soundcloud.com / andoryukesuta)@andoryukesuta The sound of a nu metal band arouses the vampire Lestat de Lioncourt from a lengthy slumber, and he proceeds to take over as their lead singer. Achieving international success with the ensemble, which he names The Vampire Lestat, and having revealed the existence of vampires, he taunts his own kind during an interview to advertise his first and only live concert. Jesse Reeves, a researcher for the paranormal studies group Talamasca, is intrigued by his lyrics upon hearing one of his songs play on TV and tells the other members her theory that he really is a vampire. Her mentor, David Talbot, explains to her they already know of his identity and donates Lestat's journal that he recovered so that Jesse can read it, but warns her against pursuing Lestat. In the journal, Lestat recalls that in the winter of 1788, he was brought to a Mediterranean island and vampirized by Marius de Romanus, formerly a talented painter, and his violin playing awoke Akasha, the first vampire. Increasingly intrigued, Jesse tracks Lestat down to a London vampire club called The Admiral's Arms, where he saves her from three vampires and confronts her about Marius. Visiting Lestat in Los Angeles, Marius warns him that the other vampires will not tolerate his flamboyant public profile; he reveals that Lestat's music has awakened Akasha and unsuccessfully implores him to cancel his concert. Meanwhile, Akasha arrives at the coven, looking for Lestat. After the vampires reveal their plan to kill him at his concert, she torches the club and kills all the vampires inside. Arriving in Los Angeles, Jesse gives Lestat his journal back and asks him to show her what being a vampire is like. He scoffs at the idea, but she convinces him to spend time with her. She later enquires if he can convert her, expressing her desire to be with him and know everything he does. He angrily declines, demonstrating how a vampire preys on human blood before asking her if she truly wants to become one. Lestat is attacked by a group of vampires at his concert in Death Valley, and Marius aids him in defeating most of them until Akasha arrives and promptly carries Lestat with her to her home on an island resort. During their period of sexual intercourse, he becomes spellbound and subservient to her. Jesse awakens in the house where she lived as a child, in awe at the sight of her aunt, Maharet, who later reveals herself as a member of the Ancient Vampires. Fearing Akasha's plans for world domination, the Ancient Vampires decide to destroy her by draining her blood. However, they believe that whoever drinks her last drop will not survive. Akasha confronts the Ancient Vampires and interrupts their meeting, with Lestat, empowered by her blood, accompanying her. When they refuse to side with her, Akasha commands him to kill Jesse, seeing her both as an enemy due to being Maharet's descendant and as food, with Akasha planning to make an example out of her to dissuade disobedience. He ostensibly obeys, but after drinking Jesse's blood, comes to his senses and is released from Akasha's controlling influence. He demands his "crown", and as Akasha openly offers him her arm to feed on, he then turns on her and, aided by the Ancients, begins to drain her blood, diminishing her power; he goes to Jesse and, cradling her in his arms, donates his blood to her as Maharet, who has effectively killed Akasha by drinking her last drop of blood, turns into a marble statue and "sleeps", becoming the new Queen of the Damned.

Welcome to our fifth year of reading Anne Rice books for Halloween, with special guest Dr. Claire Mischker! He's David Talbot, nobody's favorite old man/young twink vampire! She's Merrick, too cool for these dusty losers, out here committing perfume crimes! In accordance with long-established tradition, this episode is rambling and yelly and has weird sound! Note: I promise we actually do know that Guatemala is in Central America, but once you make a mistake one time on a podcast it's really hard to not keep making it. As usual there are a slew of real content warnings about anything our girl Anne writes - in this one there is some really gross sexualization of a child (although she is an adult when they actually bang it out); there's somebody letting Anne Rice write about race and colorism which was, let's say, a mistake; and there's quite a lot of talk about suicide. If you need support, the new 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is available by phone (just dial 988) or by text or chat at https://988lifeline.org/. You are not a fictional vampire; we are glad you are here and want you to stay here.

Jennifer is on the road this week, and I thought it might be fun to give a listen to a podcast from four years ago - the day of voting in the last contentious election.  The one that Joe Biden won the day we were speaking, but the results weren't in. Conversation begins with a chat about how the country was in turmoil (the lockdown had begun in March) and Jennifer said that Maverick had shown up. He wanted to talk about the "bittersweet" experience of the election, how despite it going the way he thought it should, how divided the country was. Then Sergeant Shriver showed up - Maria Shriver's dad, who was the brother in law of JFK, who ran the Peace Corps. I recount an oddly prescient dream I had where I met him - and then 20 years later, was in the same room with him (but didn't meet him).  JFK speaks about the election, but also about his passing, because we'd interviewed him earlier, and he had been reluctant to talk about it other than to say that the book BROTHERS by David Talbot was accurate.  Abe Lincoln showed up as well - and for those who are fans of my medium.com account - I have an unusual conversation with Abraham via his Character AI on that page.  I brought that info to the last podcast - I forgot he was on this one until I was listening to it. I did make some edits in it - because of my headset, my voice is particularly annoying in this one - it was hard to mix the sound.  But the content is there. This podcast from four years ago - is applicable to this week in history, as it is to every time in history people had to vote for issues that mattered to the nation. It's a freewheeling discussion - but it was literally four years ago, and pay attention to the fact that we speak about Robert Towne, my old boss, the man who wrote Chinatown, who was still on the planet at this point, and was having active conversations via Jennifer with his dog "Hira" on the flipside. I think these sessions demonstrate how easy it is for us to stay in touch with our loved ones offstage. Of course it helps to have someone like Jennifer who appears to be a live microphone to the flipside. Our Election special REDUX!  This was recorded FOUR YEARS AGO and podcast that day in 11.5.20 when the results of the election were not yet know, but they were known to Jennifer and folks on the flipside.  John McCain comes forward to talk about his "bittersweet" feeling of vindication, but sad to see the nation so divided.  JFK comes to speak as well, to talk about the division of the nation, but also to discuss his death.  His brother in law Sgt Shriver makes an appearance - I knew he had dementia for the last years of his life, and we talk about that. (People report leaving only a smaller percentage of their conscious energy in their body when that happens - the rest is already "back home.") When the topic arises, Jennifer is shown an image of the current candidate, I mention that his father Fred had the affliction. (And for the record we interview both FRED TRUMP and BEAU BIDEN in a podcast some time after this (search for it on the podcast). It's unusual because Jennifer didn't know who "Fred" or "Bo" was - but she answered questions about their family and the role their controversial family members on the planet are supposed to play. In some cases, people play the adversarial role to teach lessons in unconditional love - because it forces people to confront those issues head on.  We may have a podcast this week - although Jennifer is on the road - but in case we don't, this is a reminder of what is at stake. Abraham Lincoln makes an appearance as well.. I know this sounds mind bending, but after doing this with Jennifer for ten years, I know how accurate she can be. She works with members of law enforcement nationwide daily - pro bono.  She's very good at what she does. I just felt this was unusual look into the election of four years ago, and how it's the same kind of thing now... there's much at stake, and people on the flipside want us to vote as well. Mind bending as ever.  Enjoy and don't forget to VOTE.

Andrew For America presents an overview of why he believes that America will soon fall, just as it has been planned by the power elite. He talks about how the government gaslights us, and how members of the "big club" think and act as if they are above the law. Andrew also discusses a plan known as the "Cloward-Piven" strategy, which was a plan developed by two sociologists that involves flooding the American welfare system with immigrants on a level which would destroy the system's ability to facilitate its purpose. This would lead to a "leveling of the playing field" for all peoples of all races and ethnic groups so that they could finally achieve equality of outcomes here in America...allegedly. Andrew also reads a book review of the book, "The Devil's Chessboard: Allen Dulles, the CIA, and the rise of America's secret government" by David Talbot. Andrew plays clips from David Wilcock, Jordan Maxwell, Thomas Sowell and Milton Friedman talking to Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven, Andy Frisella, and others to help illustrate his points.

"The Devil's Chessboard" by David Talbot is a gripping exposé that delves into the dark underbelly of American power during the Cold War. This meticulously researched book focuses on the career of Allen Dulles, the longest-serving director of the CIA, and his profound influence on U.S. foreign policy. Talbot paints a chilling portrait of Dulles as a master manipulator, who orchestrated coups, assassinations, and covert operations, often putting the world on the brink of disaster. From the overthrow of democratically elected governments to the controversial Warren Commission on JFK's assassination, Dulles' shadowy dealings reveal a legacy of unchecked power and moral corruption. For those interested in history, espionage, and the true stories behind America's secret wars, "The Devil's Chessboard" offers a compelling narrative that is as enlightening as it is disturbing. Discover the untold stories of intrigue, power struggles, and the hidden forces that shaped the modern world. #TheDevilsChessboard #DavidTalbot #CIA #Espionage #ColdWarHistory #JFKAssassination #HistoricalNonFiction #MustReadYou can find every episode of this show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or YouTube.

In 1970, Dr. Marcus Foster was hired as the first Black superintendent of the Oakland Unified School District. Widely recognized as one of the greatest educators of his generation, he was brought here to help rescue a deeply troubled system. Within three years of his arrival, exactly 50 years ago this month, Foster was assassinated by a shady militant group that called itself the Symbionese Liberation Army. Even though many of the details of Foster's death are known, it remains one of the most mysterious murders of a notoriously turbulent era. Although the SLA supposedly emerged from Berkeley's revolutionary underground, there are some startling connections that point to a far more complicated story. On the anniversary of this tragic killing, this episode celebrates the legacy of Foster's impact on Oakland school and also delves into the murky origins of the group responsible for this death. The first segment features Patanisha Williams, the curator “The Audacity to Believe,” an exhibit about Dr. Marcus Foster currently on display at the African American Museum and Library at Oakland. The second half of the show includes bestselling author and investigative journalist David Talbot, who wrote about the SLA in his book “Season of the Witch: Enchantment, Terror, and Deliverance in the City of Love.” Music for this episode was generously provided by Jason Stinnett and Justin Lee.

During the inter-season break, the vampire insiders are doing deep dives into the episodes, chatting about other kinds of creature media and in today's episode, we are looking hard at the 2002 film Queen of the Damned, which seems to have nothing to do with the source material except for the characters' names. From wikipedia: The vampire Lestat is awakened from decades of slumber by the sound of a hard rock band, and proceeds to take over as their lead singer. Achieving international success, Lestat, having revealed the existence of vampires, taunts the others of his kind during an interview for promoting his first and only live concert. Jesse Reeves, a researcher for the paranormal studies group Talamasca, is intrigued by Lestat's lyrics after hearing one of his songs play on TV and tells the rest of the group her theory that he really is a vampire. Her mentor, David Talbot, takes her aside and tells her they know what he is and that a vampire called Marius made him. David also shows her Lestat's journal. In the journal, Lestat recalls how he was turned into a vampire by Marius and how he awoke Akasha, the first vampire, with his music. Jesse tracks Lestat down to a London vampire club called The Admiral's Arms, where he saves her and confronts her about Marius. In Los Angeles, Lestat is visited by Marius, who warns him that the other vampires will not tolerate his flamboyant public profile. He begs him to cancel his concert, which he refuses. Meanwhile, awakened Akasha, who is searching for Lestat, arrives at The Admiral's Arms. After the vampires reveal their plan to kill Lestat Akasha torches the club. Jesse arrives at Los Angeles and gives Lestat his journal and asks him to show her what being a vampire is like. Lestat scoffs at the idea, but Jesse convinces him to spend his last moments before the concert with her. Jesse later asks Lestat to turn her, telling him she wants to be with him and that she wants to know everything he does. Lestat angrily refuses, and shows her what it's like for a vampire to feed aggressively on a human. While performing at his concert in Death Valley, a group of vampires attack Lestat. With Marius' help, they both fend off most of the vampires until Akasha bursts through the stage and takes Lestat with her. Akasha brings Lestat to her new home, where the two vampires have sexual intercourse, during which time Lestat becomes spellbound by Akasha and is forced to obey her, and Akasha proclaims Lestat her new king. After the concert, Jesse is taken to the home of her aunt, Maharet, who later reveals herself to be one of the Ancient Vampires. The Ancient Vampires discuss their plans to destroy the Queen by drinking from her and draining her of her blood. However, they believe that whoever drinks the Queen's last drop will not survive. Empowered by Akasha's blood, Lestat and the Queen confront the Ancient Vampires. When they refuse to join her, Akasha then commands Lestat to kill Jesse, as The Queen sees her both as an enemy, due to being Maharet's descendant, and as food, with Akasha making an example out of her for those who dare disobey her command. After drinking Jesse's blood, Lestat comes to his senses and is released from Akasha's power. Lestat then turns on her and begins to drain Akasha's blood. With the help of the Ancients, Akasha's power diminishes. Maharet is the last to drink Akasha's blood, killing Akasha. Lestat goes to Jesse and, cradling her in his arms, gives her his blood as Maharet turns into a marble statue and "sleeps"; the new Queen of the Damned. Lestat and Jesse visit David and return Lestat's journal. Jesse offers to turn David into a vampire to which he replies he's too old for immortality. Jesse then bids David goodbye and leaves with Lestat. A few moments later, David is greeted by Marius. The film closes with Lestat and Jesse walking hand in hand, among mortals, into the night. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/vampire-insider/message

It's a Sean led episode so we're talking about French President Charles De Gaulle (1890-1970) and how he survived a CIA backed coup in 1961. In this part 1 we give a bit of background information on the French colonization of Algeria and why De Gaulle's attempts to end that war made people angry enough to try to kill him 30 times. We also look at lessons JFK could have taken from De Gaulle that might've helped him to survive his own assassination. We finish with part 2 on the Patreon. Most of the research for this episode comes from the Devil's Chessboard by David Talbot. The relevant chapters are excerpted here: https://whowhatwhy.org/politics/government-integrity/jfk-assassination-plot-mirrored-in-1961-france-part-1/

This is the story of a fragile democracy, a foreign sponsored coup, and a pirate radio station. On May 1, coinciding with the worker's holiday May Day, in 1954, Guatemalans found a new station on a previously unused band of their shortwave radios. Radio Liberación, the Voice of the Liberation, announced itself as a clandestine transmitter, broadcasting from a “secret place” within the Republic of Guatemala and reporting on the crimes of the communists. For this episode, we relied on extensive reporting from Sylvia Brindis Snow and Shane Snow as well as investigative reporting done by Stephen Schlesinger and Stephen Kinzer and published in their book Bitter Fruit and historian Nick Cullather's book, Strange History. Additional background research comes from David Talbot's book The Devil's Chessboard.

Gladius en latín significa espada y ese mismo nombre en su forma italiana, gladio, es el que adquirió a modo de nombre en clave una operación clandestina de gran alcance llevada a cabo por los servicios de inteligencia occidentales durante la guerra fría. Sólo en Italia llevó el nombre Gladio, pero terminó englobando a todo tipo de operaciones orquestadas en secreto desde la OTAN para organizar la resistencia civil que seguiría a una hipotética invasión de Europa occidental por parte de las potencias del Pacto de Varsovia. A esas operaciones se las conocía como “stay behind” porque serían la fuerza aliada que permanecería detrás de las líneas soviéticas para facilitar el contraataque. Esa era la idea original, pero Europa occidental nunca fue invadida por la URSS y sus satélites del este, de modo que en algunos países la operación degeneró adquiriendo una naturaleza muy distinta. Desde los servicios de inteligencia de estos países se trató de debilitar mediante operaciones encubiertas a las organizaciones de extrema izquierda que tenían vínculos con el este y que, en ocasiones, se habían decantado por la lucha armada. La operación Gladio afectó a prácticamente toda Europa, pero sólo se ha investigado a fondo en tres países: Italia, Bélgica y Suiza, donde se llegaron incluso a convocar años más tarde comisiones de investigación en el parlamento. Las tres investigaciones llegaron a conclusiones diferentes. Guido Salvini, un juez que trabajó en la comisión italiana, concluyó que algunas organizaciones terroristas de extrema derecha de los denominados “años de plomo” como Ordine Nuovo o la Vanguardia Nacional estaban estrechamente vinculadas con el Estado italiano y la CIA estadounidense. Salvini llegó a decir que la CIA les señalaba los objetivos y les animaba a actuar. La comisión suiza demostró que la inteligencia británica cooperó en secreto con las fuerzas armadas suizas para entrenar a agentes encubiertos en técnicas de combate, comunicaciones y sabotaje. Esa operación la bautizaron como P-26 y tenía pensado activarse para organizar la resistencia en caso de una invasión soviética y, según algunos expertos, si un partido de extrema izquierda se hacía con el poder en la Confederación. La investigación belga no pudo encontrar información concluyente sobre la implicación de su ejército. No se encontraron vínculos entre los militares belgas y Gladio. Los servicios secretos belgas se negaron a colaborar, no quisieron dar el nombre de sus agentes escudándose en la seguridad nacional. La operación Gladio dejó pistas en otros muchos países europeos como Francia, Alemania, España, Holanda, Noruega, Austria, Portugal y Grecia, pero no se quiso tirar del hilo porque era una información muy comprometedora que se guardaba bajo siete llaves. Las llaves nadie quiso entregarlas. Además, la guerra fría entró en su fase final en la segunda mitad de la década de los ochenta y pocos fueron los que se mostraron dispuestos a remover el asunto. El parlamento europeo terminó, ya en 1990, aprobando una resolución condenatoria por todo lo que se había hecho, pero no quiso dar nombres, seguramente porque no los sabía. En EEUU hubo que esperar más tiempo, hasta 2006, cuando el departamento de Estado reconoció que, durante la guerra fría, apoyó operaciones clandestinas en Europa, pero no dio mucha más información. Fue entonces cuando la operación Gladio entró en los libros de historia. Lo hizo dejando muchas cuestiones en el aire, la mayor parte de las cuales no han conseguido responderse hasta ahora. Es posible que nunca lo sepamos porque Gladio fue desde el principio hasta el final un ejército secreto.

Tras el ataque a traición a Pearl Harbour en 1941 por parte del imperio japonés, en la Casa Blanca empezaron a plantearse crear una agencia de inteligencia que, mediante la obtención y manejo de buena información, se encargase de prevenir algo similar. Otras potencias de la época como la Alemania nazi ya contaban con organismos de ese tipo como el Abwehr, fundada poco después de la derrota en la primera guerra mundial. En Estados Unidos el ejército y la marina contaban con servicios de inteligencia, pero no estaban coordinados entre sí, algo que los británicos habían hecho a principios de siglo con el Servicio Secreto, más conocido como MI6, para proteger los intereses del imperio y vigilar las posibles amenazas. Pero en Estados Unidos no era tan fácil. La estructura federal del Estado, las mayorías cambiantes en el Congreso y la competencia entre la secretaria de Estado y la de Guerra habían impedido que se crease una agencia de inteligencia única. En 1942, seis meses después del ataque a Pearl Harbour, se creó la Oficina de Servicios Estratégicos u OSS, que fue el primer servicio de inteligencia unificado. Su función era unificar las actividades de espionaje de todas las armas del ejército mientras durase la guerra. Cuando esta se acercaba a su final en noviembre de 1944, el general William Donovan, jefe de la Oficina de Servicios Estratégicos, escribió al presidente Franklin Delano Roosevelt indicando la necesidad de un servicio central de inteligencia que recopilase toda la información proveniente de las distintas agencias y determinase los objetivos a seguir. Este servicio dispondría de agentes y estructura propia y podría realizar operaciones encubiertas en el extranjero, pero no dentro del país. A Roosevelt le pareció una buena idea, más aún cuando se preveía cerrar la OSS en cuanto se firmase la paz. Todos sabían que quedaban sólo unos meses de guerra y el asunto se fue aplazando porque eran demasiados los frentes que el presidente tenía que cubrir en ese momento. Para colmo de males Franklin Delano Roosevelt murió en abril de 1945, sólo un mes antes de la victoria en Europa y cinco meses antes de la victoria en el Pacífico. Las negociaciones de paz absorbieron todo el tiempo de su sucesor, Harry Truman, que tenía la intención de dar una continuidad a la OSS con una agencia mucho más grande e influyente, aunque pensada para tiempos de paz. Dos años después de concluir la guerra, en septiembre de 1947, el presidente Truman promulgó la Ley de Seguridad Nacional en virtud de la cual se creaba la Agencia Central de Inteligencia o CIA por sus siglas en inglés. A diferencia de la Oficina Federal de Investigaciones o FBI, que es un servicio de investigación policial de ámbito nacional, la CIA no tiene competencias dentro de Estados Unidos. Eso hizo de ella los ojos y oídos de Estados Unidos en el extranjero. Durante sus 75 años de historia ha cosechado grandes éxitos, pero también sonoros fracasos. De ambos ha dado cuenta el cine, que desde los inicios de la agencia convirtió sus siglas en todo un reclamo para la audiencia. Hoy en La ContraHistoria vamos a dar un repaso a la historia de esta mítica agencia cuyas siglas son legendarias.
