📍 J. Edgar Hoover, the Boss of Secrets and Strictly Dirty Affairs
It is not in vain that I have named J. Edgar Hoover the boss of secrets in the title, Hoover is the man whose life is filled with countless myths and legends even nowadays. Whether he consciously shaped this way, or because of his strict conservative values, his Victorian attitude, or his pitbull nature. J. Edgar Hoover was fueled by rumors of people, it is difficult to determine him.

As one of his successors pointed out, crime in the U.S. grew out of control directly because of this freak. He allowed himself to be under the direct control of the Mob, the same Mob he refused to acknowledge. His illegal activities promoted crime and ruined many innocent lives. He was the very kind of person who should never have had any authority. The man was a monster.

I was a cop 50 years ago. Every cop, fed and detective I ever knew knew Hoover was gay. But Tolson was not his lover, although many thought he was. Tolson and Hoover were best friends in the truest sense - they both wre attracted to the same type of teenaged boy. Their taste did not run to adult males - or each other. And I had that on the very best kind of testimony. Unimpeachable testimony.

Cross dressers that tuck their junk between their legs when in drag to appear more feminine are called Tuckers. Tuckers also work as prostitutes and specialize in hand jobs as their hands are as tiny as the former moron-in-chief's. Rupert introduced Lachlan to Tuckers during the Reagan aids crisis and he liked them himself. Of course they did oral too, for an extra fee. It was a father/son bonding moment and I thought it was just an Aussie thing. Hiring a Tucker shows their commitment to safe sex.

I can not understand why JFK didn't simply have Hoover's office cleaned out one night after he left, had him watched overnight to ensure no one tipped him off, the next morning as soon as he left his house, had a team make entry, shut off the phone lines and keep his household staff in a secure location while ALL of his files at his residence were confiscated and sent to a secure location. Once his secretary arrived, she could have been detained with no access to a phone and when John arrived at work, be immediately escorted to the White House where his written letter of resignation was waiting. Once all the files were secured, he could be taken home. This way JFK would have had all his "secret" files and thereby taken away his "power" over people.

Yes, he had African American in his ancestry. Some of his close employees knew that. They would converse about his dark skin; (compared to theirs).

Charles Manson didn't like black people either, even though he suspected that he was half-black himself. In fact, the murders that he had his followers commit (Sharon Tate and her house guests, the LaBiancas, and, some say, others) were part of a plot to start a race war by blaming the crimes on black militants. (the victims were all white) Manson called it "Helter Skelter," after a song of the same name by the Beatles, which he believed contained code words proclaiming a future war between the white people and the blacks.

@dleet86 2 года назад

JFK could've survived the Oswald shots but the kill shot was an armor piercing exploding bullet that Secret Service used. The car detail were reservists as the senior experienced agents got drunk the night before. The rookie proffered his weapon to respond asap the 1st shot rang out and he accidently sent a load into JFK's head. All the casings for Oswald's shots were accounted for in the 5th floor depository window. The exploding round would not fit Oswald's rifle. The only conspiracy was the cover up. Oswald was the lone assassin.

Organized Crime had 'the goods' on J. Edgar Hoover. Hoover kept insisting there was no such thing as La Cosa Nostra. The mob liked it that way and Hoover knew that if he crossed them, they'd release photos of him not only cross dressed but having gay sex with young boys. Robert Kennedy, Attorney General, turned on organized crime making things dicey for Hoover. Hoover hated the Kennedy's and vice-versa. When JFK was assassinated Hoover from the get-go insisted LHO acted alone. JEH was the best man in Organized Crime's pocket. They thrived during the Hoover years.
