Good to know, thanks for the clarification. I’ll fix it for the YouTube release 🫡

Just a small correction, nothing really to do with the spy stuff, but the V1 rocket was not a ram-jet design, but a pulse-jet design. A ram-jet is way more sophisticated and compresses supersonic to hypersonic airflow without moving parts

Thanks. Liked the foreign spook intro. Looking forward to your next post.

Excellent work, as always - counting on you to mine nuggets from the recent deredactathon as no one else can or has the gumption to try (no pressure).
ComradeCam
I really appreciate your work! Keep it up!

EWO appreciate the bonus videos, and all your work, which is a fresh perspective. When it comes to the actual shooters of JFK , we will never know for certain, but as I’ve heard it’s the journey not just the destination. Thank you for all of your hard work !!! I’m compelled to rewatch this episode yet again !!!

As far as Crown is concerned, I find him as another member of the MIC and the global community that comprise the blob

Riley Ken , very good contribution !!!

Yup, a lot of smoke surrounding the Mclaney camp. For one, they found mostly bomb casings at the camp, implying that they were planning a bombing raid. Also pretty sure De Brueys had a previous connection with Guy Banister from his FBI/NOLA police days…
Riley Ken
Appreciate the kind words - your work is what piqued my interest, so all thanks to your work.

Re : The infamous Mclaney “ Camp Raid” in Louisiana on 7-31-63 where the “ Louisiana 12” were rounded up was led by NOLA FBI SA Warren De Brueys, who was the affiant for the search warrant. De Brueys, Regis Kennedy and James Hosty were loyal Hoover G -Men that withheld key pre-assassination information . All were in the FBI Office in NOLA in the summer of ‘63 when LHO was doing his pro Cuban/Castro thing. De Brueys in particular had an association with LHO according to Orieste Peña.

Great episode…a tidbit about Henry Crown among others can be found in this quick read…. “Round up the usual suspects !” https://www.transcend.org/tms/2021/12/how-organized-crime-infiltrated-american-business-after-wwii-and-corrupted-national-politics-from-truman-to-trump-2/
