Episode 153 is  the third  in a new series of episodes  that chronicle the story of the Garrison investigation in  New Orleans and the related trial of Clay Shaw.  This episode gives Garrison the floor in 1967, recorded at a lecture attended by a supportive audience.  He outlines his view (as the facts appeared to him at that moment)  of what happened in the assassination.  Few venues (including the 30 minute NBC rebuttal, which you also  will hear later in the series) offer such a relaxed forum without a time constraint. A forum that a rare and relaxed glimpse of Jim Garrison and his mindset during that period of time.  Jim  Garrison was the New Orleans district attorney and, a  result of his investigation into the murder of JFK, Clay Shaw was indicted  by a grand jury  and tried  on  conspiracy charges to assassinate the president. It was the only criminal trial ever conducted in the United States related to the president's murder.  Garrison's investigation and trial became the inspiration and partial basis for Oliver Stone's movie JFK. Today's episode introduces us to more Jim Garrison's thinking  as a precursor to understanding the details of the Clay Shaw trial and to help in our own understanding of the actions taken by Garrison and his thinking which shaped the events of the grand jury investigation and the subsequent trial. All of these elements are designed to, collectively,  help  you as the juror determine Garrison's proper place in the history of the JFK assassination story. Let us know what you like about the podcast or just provide us with comments on the episode via email at podcastjfk@gmail.com or get active in our blog for each episode at www.podcastjfk.com   Either way, keep listening, and join us for the whole series of episodes about the fantastic goings-on that encompass this part of the JFK story. Things continue to get more intriguing as  we enter the unknown with evidence that is complex, incomplete and sometimes conflicting. Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over  the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it,  were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very beginning. Stay tuned as there are many more episodes to come!This series comprehensively explores the major facts,  themes, and  events leading up to the assassination in Dealey Plaza and the equally gripping stories surrounding the subsequent investigation.

EPISODE 127: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:41) SPECIAL COMMENT: It is carefully hidden to protect the sources, but there's no question in my mind now: The New York Times' profile of the arrested ex-FBI New York Executive Charles McGonigal implies that FBI and DOJ are investigating whether he was working for Oleg Deripaska, employer of Paul Manafort who was Trump's Campaign Manager - FOR FREE - long before he retired from the Bureau. I go through the Times piece line-by-line and the phrasing, the invoking of an earlier Russian Spy in McGonigal's own FBI department, the terminology, is all groundwork for later stories that could fully reengage this country with the reality of Trump's 2016 Conspiracy with Russia - and how the FBI's New York Office may have knowingly or unknowingly played a part on both ends of that fetid deal.

The Kennedy Conspiracy is growing even stronger, in large part due to the work of Jefferson Morley, both in writing about it and more importantly in pressing the CIA to declassify documents. He now claims to have a "smoking gun" that will crack the case. But does he? Bob Buzzanco has been one of the foremost critics of the JFK-Oliver Stone Conspiracy group and he and Morley had a long discussion about the claims of a government conspiracy to kill the President in 1963. They discussed the difficulty of getting government documents, Morley's allegations about the CIA's involvement in conducting surveillance on Lee Harvey Oswald and trying to flip him, and then making him the patsy for the killing, and how the CIA operates. Buzzanco repeatedly made the point that there was still no evidence, no real link, between government agents and the events in Dallas at Dealey Plaza. Green & Red has been at the forefront of this debate and it continues with this great discussion. Bio// Jefferson Morley (@jeffersonmorley) is a Washington journalist and author. He worked as an editor at Harper's, The New Republic and Nation before joining the Washington Post in 1992. Morley is the author of three non-fiction books: The Ghost: The Secret Life of CIA Spymaster James Jesus Angleton (St. Martin's Press); Our Man in Mexico: Winston Scott and the Hidden History of the CIA (University Press of Kansas); and Snow-Storm in August: Washington City, Francis Scott Key, and the Forgotten Race Riot of 1835 (Nan Talese/Doubleday).

And characters including E. Howard Hunt, Bernard Barker, David Atlee Phillips are re-introducted into the scenario.   Hear how the scope and approach of the mission is affected by the fluid and evolving events in Cuba during 1960 and the impact that Fidel's tightening grip on the populace, his rapidly expanding military capability and the timing of the United States presidential election  election... all impacted the  planning and timing for the insurrection.  As we explained in Bay of Pigs Part 1, the  planning surrounding the invasion attempt was accepted because there was a concomitant plan to deploy the Mafia in a plan to assassinate Castro. This episode explains how the assassination plot to kill Fidel Castro evolved and then became an integral part of the planning for the Bay of Pigs.

John T. Orr is the author of "Analysis of Gunshots in Dealey Plaza." Orr's independent research convinced the FBI to conduct additional testing on JFK evidence as late as 1997. Results were inconclusive, but he suggests that even more testing should be done. John became one of the few private citizens ever allowed by the Archives to examine in person original pieces of evidence in the case--the president's bloody shirt, coat, and tie, the magic bullet, the bullet fragments from the limousine, and the section of curb that a bullet struck. John also read thousands and thousands of pages of private books, magazines, and reports on the assassination. On April 17, 1995, John mailed a 72-page report on the final results of my research project to Attorney General Janet Reno. The report proves beyond a reasonable doubt that four shots were fired during the assassination.

Fidel Castro escaped into the mountains but was subsequently apprehended and brought to trial. While he was convicted and sentenced to fifteen years, his eloquent speech now dubbed "history will absolve me" coupled with the brutality of the Batista forces as they dealt with the escaping revolutionaries, combined to turn Castro into a national hero and set the stage for a later toppling of the Batista government.    Join us in this continuing miniseries on Cuban history  as we continue to set the stage and  explore  the forces that were shaping the world in that era of the twentieth century.

Episode 133   is the second  fully dedicated episode covering Fidel Castro  and the Cuban Revolution. In this episode, we give an overview of the revolutionary years and chronicle the major events of the Cuban Revolution that took place during the period between the coup by Batista in March 1952 through the fall of the Batista government,  marked by his fleeing of the country on New Year's day 1959.   The aftermath and repercussions of Batista's coup would give  rise and voice to the  young Fidel Castro as a revolutionary force in Cuba. It is an extraordinary tale that we tell of Castros early attempts to overthrow the Batista government including the failed Moncada Barracks attack, his  trial and imprisonment, his subsequent exile in Mexico and his return to Cuba  when he  finally overtakes the Batista government in a guerilla campaign that eventually would win the day.  Join us over the next several episodes for more detail on the  Cuban Revolution  and how this  small band of radicals would overtake the Batista government .   It is here on this island nation where  the story eventually  converges around the modern Cubans, CIA men and the mafia.  All in one place.  Join us in this continuing miniseries on Cuban history  as we continue to set the stage and  explore  the forces that were shaping the world in that era of the twentieth century.

Today is the anniversary of the killing of John Kennedy in Dallas. While in Dallas a few years ago, I took a tour of Dealey Plaza with Robin Brown of JFK Custom Tours. It was so entertaining that I invited Robin to the show to lay out what he believes happened on November 22, 1963. We spend a great deal of time discussing the rise of defense contractors and the CIA in the early days of the Cold War. Then Robin explains his theory on the why, how, and who of President John F. Kennedy's murder. Visit Robin's website at https://www.jfkcustomtours.com/. Disclaimer: I really have no idea what happened to President Kennedy, and by having Robin on, I am not endorsing his ideas. Much of the history on the establishment of that period we share is absolutely true, and most facts on the assassination he shared did check out. I don't know what happened. I just found him to be a fun person you'd enjoy. Come to your own conclusions.
