How JFK Tried To End The Cold War in 1963
Our #JFK60 special coverage continues tonight at 9 PM Eastern with this encore presentation of our Maverick News interview with Kennedy Assassination historian James DiEugenio from October 22, 2022.
Be sure to join us live at 9 PM Saturday, November 25th, when Jim DiEugenio returns to the "Strange Bedfellows" podcast!
After the Cuban Missile Crisis, both President John F. #Kennedy and Soviet Premier Nikita #Khrushchev realized the #ColdWar was madness and tried to end it.
In 1963, the U.S. and the #USSR signed a Nuclear Test Ban Treaty that was the first giant step towards peace between the superpowers.
During the final months of his life, #JFK was also negotiating a truce with Cuban leader Fidel Castro through secret emissaries, and pulling U.S. advisors out of #Vietnam with an eye towards getting all American personnel out by 1965.
Kennedy's June 1963 "Peace Speech" at American University in Washington, D.C. outlined his vision for a peaceful coexistence with the #SovietUnion, and communist countries around the globe.
As historian Jim DiEugenio (screenplay writer for Oliver Stone's documentary "JFK Revisited" and author of the accompanying book) explains here, Kennedy and Khrushchev nearly ended the Cold War a quarter century before President Reagan did. Their efforts resulted in both leaders being removed from power by warmongering forces within their own governments.

Jim Garrison: The Man Who Inspired Oliver Stone's "JFK"
Our #JFK60 coverage continues tonight at 9 Eastern with an encore presentation of this October 2022 Maverick News broadcast. We hope you enjoy it.
30 years after the death of Jim Garrison , we remember the former New Orleans District Attorney who inspired Kevin Costner's character in Oliver Stone's 1992 opus, "#JFK."
Garrison was the only prosecutor in history to file murder charges against any of the Kennedy assassination (alleged) conspirators.
Although his prosecution of Clay Shaw was ultimately unsuccessful, Garrison left an indelible imprint on history. If the jury in that trial had been the American people, Jim Garrison probably would have won his case.
We talk to historian Jim DiEugenio (screenplay writer for Oliver Stone's documentary series "JFK Revisited" and author of the companion book) about how the work of Jim Garrison paved the way for three generations of JFK Assassination researchers, including himself.
We look back at the life of Jim Garrison, hear from both his critics and his supporters, and show you a rare excerpt from Garrison's final interview recorded shortly before his death on October 21, 1992.

Oliver Stone's "JFK Revisited": Interview with Screenwriter James DiEugenio
* We look forward to having Jim DiEugenio back on the Maverick News Network to mark the 60th anniversary. Jim returns to "Strange Bedfellows" November 25th! Join us live at 9 PM Eastern. (Set a notification here.)
Award-winning Director Oliver Stone's dramatic film "#JFK" set off a firestorm of controversy when it debuted in 1992. Public outrage over the film forced Congress to pass the JFK Records Act that year, which resulted in the release of millions of documents previously kept secret by the U.S. government.
60 years after the #JFKAssassination, Oliver Stone and screenwriter/author James DiEugenio have made the penultimate documentary about the JFK Assassination; the culmination of three decades of research into those long-secret declassified files.
"JFK Revisited" is the two-hour version of Stone's documentary film. "JFK: Destiny Betrayed -- Through the Looking Glass" is a four-hour tour-de-force packed with interviews and new information that has only recently come to light. (The film is available in four hourlong episodes, on DVD, and also in book format.)
As part of Maverick News' #JFK60 special programming this month, we unearthed our October 2022 interview with "JFK Revisited" screenplay writer and author Jim DiEugenio.
We dive deep into the new evidence that leads to a conclusion of conspiracy in the murder of President #Kennedy on Nov. 22, 1963.
Jim and Oliver respond to critical attacks on Oliver's films about JFK, and we detail how the mainstream media continues to cover-up the truth of the assassination even to the present day, 60 years after the crime of the century.

Kennedy SURGING In Latest Polls
This week I dropped in on "The Backstory" with Rachel Blevins (Sputnik Radio) to discuss 2024 presidential candidate Robert F. #Kennedy Jr.'s latest poll numbers that show him gaining on President #Biden and former president Donald #Trump.
#RFK is surging forward with an impressive 20-24% -- and in a three-way-race beats both Trump and Biden with young #GenZ voters in new polling.
We also talked about #RFKJr's policies on the #Israel/#Palestine conflict, the war in #Gaza, his proposed economic policies, and the 60th anniversary of the #JFKAssassination today. #JFK60.

JFK: 60 Years of Lies (Strange Bedfellows, Ep. 21 w. Bruce de Torres)
In late October 1963 -- a month before he was assassinated -- President John F. #Kennedy received an honorary degree from Amherst College. Accepting the honor, #JFK said:
"A nation reveals itself not only by the men it produces but also by the men it honors, the men it remembers."
Tonight on "Strange Bedfellows" we are devoting the entire 2-hour program to remembering President Kennedy's life and legacy, as we mark the 60th anniversary of his death.
Our guest is Bruce de Torres, marketing director for TrineDay Publishing, host ofWORLDSTAGE on TNT Radio, and author ofGOD, SCHOOL, 9/11 AND JFK: The Lies That Are Killing Us and The Truth That Sets Us Free.
David Denton, History Professor at Olney Central College and author ofEssays on the Assassination of President John F. Kennedy says of Bruce's book:
"In this excellent work, Bruce de Torres takes us through 200-plus years of American history, revealing the darker, hidden side of it – elites (in and out of our institutions) controlling us with lies and moving us toward #fascism. Incontrovertible facts point toward #conspiracy, especially in the assassinations of #JFK, #MLK, and #RFK, and in 9/11. Mr. de Torres correctly says we must be 'near those entrusted with power,' or else corruption and exploitation begin. I highly recommend this detailed, informative work that takes the reader right up through the events unfolding in today’s world!"
We are pleased to welcome Bruce as our guest on Episode 21 of "Strange Bedfellows" tonight at 9 PM Eastern for what promises to be a phenomenal conversation. Don't miss this show!

Education or Radicalization? (Strange Bedfellows, Ep. 20 with Tyler McConnell)
Tonight on "Strange Bedfellows" we are pleased to welcome back Tyler McConnell, original co-host of this podcast!
Tyler is a journalist, musician, standup comedian, and by day, a school teacher in Missouri.
He's also a self-described "#conservative #Christian #Communist" and political activist with the Center for Political Innovation (#CPI).
The war between #Israel and #Hamas has divided many American families, including his own. Tyler was raised by parents who strongly support #Zionism, but over the years his views have changed and he now supports #Palestine. He'll tell us why.
Rick and I will also discuss with Tyler the generation gap between #Boomers and #GenX'ers (who overwhelmingly support Israel) and their Millennial kids and #GenZ grandkids on this controversial issue.
We will seek to understand through Tyler's experiences working as an educator the ongoing confrontations and protests on campuses, and the radicalization of students by their teachers -- and through extremist groups such as the #Hamas-affiliated National Students for Justice in Palestine (whose activities on campuses in Florida were recently banned at all state universities by Gov. Ron #DeSantis).
College campuses have always been bastions of protest, where young, energetic students push older generations in the direction of the next social or political reform. But the war in #Gaza has compounded distrust about and within the education community – with little prospect in sight for dissipating the toxic environment.
Are our kids being educated or indoctrinated? We will explore that question in-depth tonight on another fascinating episode of "Strange Bedfellows." Join us live at 9 PM Eastern!

Never Again? Anti-Semitism Rising (Strange Bedfellows, Ep. 19)
Since the attack on #Israel by #Hamas terrorists almost a month ago -- and the resulting carnage of Israeli airstrikes on #Gaza -- we are seeing an alarming rise in anti-Jewish sentiment all around the world.
There have been reports of demonstrators chanting Hamas slogans, of synagogues being defaced with swastikas and anti-Jewish hatred being posted online.
In New York City, which has the largest Jewish population in the U.S., the 66 reported anti-Jewish hate crimes in October were 164% more than were reported in the same month last year, according to the New York Police Department. In Los Angeles, police report a 140% increase in anti-Jewish hate crimes.
The online vitriol has already prompted local and federal law enforcement agencies across the U.S.to stepup securityat Jewish-owned businesses and synagogues, as well as Israeli diplomatic outposts.
The online threats aren’t coming just from Hamas,NBC Newshasreported. Neo-Nazis have been contributing to the antisemitic chatter online, sometimes using the same rhetoric as Hamas.
In the current climate, even people who don't care about the plight of the Palestinians also feel emboldened to openly express their hatred of Jews, trackers of antisemitism say.
And the antisemitic incidents aren’t limited just to the U.S.
Over the weekend, a pro-Palestinian mob shouting antisemitic slogans and demanding to know where the "Jews" werestormed an airportin the mostly Muslim Russian republic of Dagestan.
Tonight on "Strange Bedfellows" we will talk to our Maverick News correspondent in #Crimea Kevin Michelizzi, an American living on a disputed tract of land currently being fought over between #Russia and #Ukraine.
We will discuss the troubling history of the Jews in Ukraine, Poland, and the former #USSR; the pogroms that led to the #Holocaust, Arab collaboration with the #Nazis in #WWII, and the creation of the state of Israel in 1948.
Kevin will also give us more details on the aftermath of the #Dagastan riot, #Putin's expression of support for the people in #Palestine, and address Western allegations of antisemitism in Russia today.
November 9 will mark the International Day Against #Fascism and #Antisemitism, honoring the victims of the “#Kristallnacht” Nazi pogrom of 1938 and, more broadly, victims of the Holocaust and of fascism throughout history.
On Episode 19 of "Strange Bedfellows" we want to raise awareness about the dangers of nationalism, #racism, antisemitism and neo-Nazism today -- because they're saying the quiet part out loud now...and we all know where that leads.
Join us live from 9-11 PM Eastern for an episode of "Strange Bedfellows" you'll #NeverForget.

Holy War: Strange Bedfellows (Ep. 18)
TheIsrael-Hamas waris the deadliest of five #Gaza wars for both sides. The #Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry said Friday that 4,137 #Palestinians have been killed and more than 13,000 others wounded.
More than 1,400 people in #Israel have been killed. In addition, 203 people were believed captured by Hamas during the incursion and taken into #Palestine, the Israeli military has said.
The release of two American hostages on Friday is “hopefully the start of more to come,” a diplomatic source with knowledge of the arrangements told CNN.
A number of foreign nationals were among those kidnapped by Hamas, including people from the US, Mexico, Canada, Brazil and Thailand.
Information about the status, location and identity of all the hostages remains scarce. Some have been identified by families who recognize them from online videos, sparking desperate pleas for their return.
As this war swiftly escalates, and Israel prepares for a full-scale ground invasion, the tragic human toll continues to mount.
Tonight on this special edition of "Strange Bedfellows" we endeavor to understand both sides of this complex and emotional issue through the eyes of our two esteemed guests:
The Palestinean perspective is explained by Don DeBar, journalist and political commentator based in New York. He covers international relations and US government, law, and politics for Pacifica Radio, #Russia's RT, #Iran's Press TV, and the Maverick News channel.
Israel's point of view is represented by Arkady Itkin, a civil litigation attorney in California who grew up in Israel and served in the Israeli Defense Forces between 1994 and 1997. Arkady can be seen as a weekly commentator on Scott Ritter's US Tour of Duty channel and also on Kevin Michelizzi's American in Crimea channel, a member of our Maverick News Network.
Please join us tonight at 9 PM Eastern for this very important episode of "Strange Bedfellows," where we believe that respectful dialogue is the only path to #peace.

Elizabeth Beck: FEARLESS Lawyer Sued Trump, the DNC, and Elon Musk
There’s nothing democratic about the Democratic Party, and our guest tonight knows that from first-hand experience.
On Episode 17 of "Strange Bedfellows" we spoke to Elizabeth Lee Beck, the attorney who sued the Democratic National Committee in 2016 in a class-action lawsuit alleging that the #DNC defrauded individual #Bernie Sanders supporters by rigging the primaries for Hillary #Clinton. (The case was dismissed in 2017.)
In addition to the #DNCFraud lawsuit, Beck has also sued former President Donald #Trump twice (in 2011 and 2015) and questioned Trump in court depositions. We will ask her thoughts on Trump’s current legal battles.
Earlier this year, Beck sued Twitter (now X) for breach of contract over the suspension of her account and that of her husband, attorney Jared Beck, four years ago. When Elon Musk bought Twitter last year, he pledged to restore all previously banned accounts that hadn’t violated Twitter’s Terms of Service. When the Becks’ accounts were not restored as promised, they took Elon to court.
In their complaint, the Becks assert that they were suspended for “engaging in political speech antagonistic to the establishment Democratic Party interests.”
We will get the latest from Elizabeth Beck on where that lawsuit currently stands, and discuss the future of #FreeSpeech on X and other social media platforms as the 2024 election season heats up.
On “Strange Bedfellows” we talk to fascinating people from all sides of the political spectrum, and always find points of agreement. A great conversation is always guaranteed!

How Canadas Nazi Scandal Impacted the War
Earlier this month, #Canada stunned the world when the nation's Parliament honored a Ukrainian former Nazi Waffen-SS soldier and gave him two standing ovations, in the presence of #Ukraine's president #Zelensky.
How has the #NaziGate scandal's ripple effect impacted NATO's commitment to the Ukraine war effort? Are the Western allies starting to realize that funding and arming Nazis isn't a good look, especially during an election year in the United States?
Will Canadian Prime Minister Justin #Trudeau be forced to resign over the scandal?
I discussed this with Regis Tremblay (a former resident of Canada who now lives in Crimea) on a recent episode of his podcast.

Israel/Palestine War: PICK A SIDE!
Ever since #Hamas attacked #Israel last week, followed by a declaration of #war and retaliatory airstrikes on Gaza, this emotional conflict has divided the entire world.
It seems everyone is expected to pick a side. Team Israel or Team #Palestine?
But war is not a football game. And if the Middle East erupts into widespread war, it's #WWIII.
One side has nuclear weapons; the other doesn't. Hardly a fair fight.
At Maverick News, we don't take that very real danger lightly. We endeavor to stay above the fray and just bring you the news.
The only side we pick in this war is #peace.

Is America DONE with Ukraine?
Two weeks after a #Republican revolt ousted House Speaker McCarthy over #Ukraine war spending, the United States of America is still without a Speaker of the House.
This is truly an unprecedented moment in our history.
The lack of progress by Ukraine to push Russian forces back has created an opening for some members in Congress to question why the U.S. should keep sending money.
A flank of Republicans, led by former President Donald Trump, the Republican front-runner in the 2024 race for the White House, is increasingly opposed to sending more money overseas. That faction was pivotal in getting $6 billion in Ukraine funding stripped from the last-minute 45-day funding bill that prevented a government shutdown in early October. Likewise, some European allies, including #Poland, have begun to pull back on their support for the war, citing the need to prioritize their own defenses.
On Sunday after the temporary spending bill was passed, President Joe Biden warned that the cuts could hit Ukraine at a critical time. “We cannot under any circumstances allow America’s support for Ukraine to be interrupted,” Biden said, urging Congress to negotiate an aid package as soon as possible.
The tide of American public opinion is turning against the war in Ukraine, and the never-ending flow of money and weapons to fund a losing war at a time when Americans are struggling to keep up with inflation and a cost of living crisis at home.
Recent polls show that President #Biden is in trouble, swiftly losing support among #Democrats while #Trump edges a lead of 3-5%.
Then there's the wild card -- #Kennedy, an independent antiwar candidate who has pledged to negotiate #peace between Ukraine and #Russia as a top priority of his administration.
#Trump has also promised to end the war "within 24 hours" if elected next year.
Clearly, this is a message voters want to hear. In this election year, has the unpopular war in Ukraine become a metaphorical stone around Biden's neck, dragging him down to defeat?

Is Canada A Nazi Nation?
In this compelling highlight from Episode 15 of "Strange Bedfellows," I asked Caleb Maupin his thoughts on the #NaziGate scandal that has rocked #Canada (and the world) this week.
Last Friday, the Canadian Parliament gave not one, but two standing ovations to a man named Yaroslav Hunka and honored him for his service in #WWII "fighting against the Russians."
Only later did it apparently occur to all 338 members of Parliament that the #Nazis fought the Russians in the Second World War.
Since then, more information has emerged -- including Hunka's own published memoir -- proving that #Hunka was a member of the notorious Waffen-SS, Galicia Division. The unit was known to have committed some of the most horrific atrocities of the #Holocaust. By definition, Yaroslav Hunka is a war criminal. So, what's he doing in Canada, eh?
We discuss that, and other troubling signs of rising #fascism in the Great White North, including the "Save The Children Convoy" which is rolling across Canada as we speak.
In a video that emerged from the #Convoy this week, a participant can be heard screaming about the #genocide of the #Holodomor, encouraging violence against the "#communists who will put us all into slavery."
The Holodomor was a 1932 famine in Soviet #Ukraine that many historians say was deliberately caused by Joseph #Stalin to starve the Ukrainian people. But it remains a topic of hot debate and controversy among historians even today -- except in Canada, where the powerful Ukrainian nationalist lobby has forbidden critical discussion of the Holodomor.
Caleb and I dig into the real history of the Holodomor here: was it Nazi propaganda? An anti-#communist hoax? A big lie?
The Holodomor is often used today by Ukrainian nationalists to justify our current involvement in the war with #Russia.
Caleb Maupin gives us the other side of the Holodomor narrative - the communist perspective -- as an author, communist historian, and journalist for RT television (Russia).
There are indeed two sides to every story. We will hear them both on this episode of "Strange Bedfellows."

Strange Bedfellows (Ep. 16): Tyler Nixon
This week on "Strange Bedfellows" it's a pleasure to welcome to the show Tyler Nixon, longtime personal attorney for Roger Stone (and frequent guest on "The Stone Zone" podcast). He is also a well-known radio talk show host in Denver. Colorado.
Nixon is an Army Infantry Veteran, #Conservative, Constitutionalist, Advocate, Writer, Technologist, Critical Historian, and a self-described "extremist in the defense of liberty."
Tyler Nixon attended Georgetown University and The University of Virginia Law School, served in the U.S. Army's Berlin Brigade and did a tour of combat duty in the first Iraq war. Later, he served as a staff assistant to former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, worked on the presidential transition team for President George W. #Bush in 2001, and on #Republican Ron Paul's presidential campaign in 2008.
On "Strange Bedfellows," we bring together political opposites to find points of agreement. Tyler and I are from different political backgrounds and parties, but we have much in common.
We both have a strong #libertarian streak, and are devotees of Dr. Ron Paul.
Tyler recently told Roger Stone on "The Stone Zone" he wants to "abolish the FBI, the IRS, and the CIA."
I'm down with THAT 100%! Now we're cookin'. Tell me more, Tyler...
He's served time for possession of marijuana and ecstasy and is now a drug policy reform advocate. So we certainly have that mission in common, too. Tell me more, Tyler...
He will tell us more...LOTS more...tonight at 9 PM Eastern.
A fascinating conversation is always guaranteed on "Strange Bedfellows." Tune in!

The Red Scare, MK-ULTRA, and Anti-Communist Brainwashing
In this excerpt from Episode 15 of "Strange Bedfellows," I talked to Caleb Maupin: author, reporter for RT television (#Russia), #communist historian, political activist, and founder of the Center for Political Innovation (CPI).
We go back in time to revisit the Red Scare of the 1950's, Sen. Joseph McCarthy's witch hunts, the CIA's MK-ULTRA mind control program, and anti-communist brainwashing; how we did it, and most importantly, WHY we did it.
Using propaganda and brainwashing techniques we learned from Nazi scientists who were imported into the United States after World War Two, the U.S. and our Western allies joined with the #Nazis in their long crusade against #communism.
Are we the baddies?
And why are we doing this again, 30 years after the Cold War supposedly ended?
Now that we are in Red Scare 3.0, we see many of the old anti-communist tropes coming back into use again, employed by our governments, politicians, the press, and on social media to brainwash Americans en masse into supporting World War Three with #Russia, #China, #NorthKorea, and other socialist nations around the world.
Maupin says "social media is the most sophisticated mind control mechanism ever invented," and explains how it works to incite people against each other.
How do we undo 75 years of mass brainwashing of an unwitting, unsuspecting populace?
