Stay Tuned for an exciting next series that covers Oswald's trip to Mexico.  This is undoubtedly one of the most intriguing aspects of the investigation. Filled with questions and contradictions and downright deception.  Let's disect this one together as a  logical place to go after the  Clinton series. Oswald was in Clinton Louisiana in late August or Early September and somewhere around September 26th...just a few weeks later, he headed south over the border...for about a week...as the story goes...but, folks, you can't write this stuff...there is so much more to this story...and I am excited to begin telling it to you...episodes are coming....very soon...

Episode 236 is the thirteenth  in a series of episodes where we begin to explore the radical right groups of the 1960's that clearly had great motive to murder president Kennedy. Emerging, alongside civil rights leaders, as a prime target for ire of white racists,  anti-communists, and and a wide variety of other conservative groups, President Kennedy was a a target among them all. This aspect of the assassination and the connection of the radical right is little explored.  We started  many episodes back, with the story of Joseph Milteer but its rather easy to pull on that string and find much more underneath the covers. Today's episode a bonus episode covering more on the Clinton tie in and the litigation and investigations  that defined those moments and the real reason Oswald was in Clinton. Today's episode supplements the  two part mini-series on this topic. As a juror, listen to this episode as we tell the real story of  why Lee Harvey Oswald's handlers took him to Clinton.  Sit back as we explain how  the social context of the  story  in part 1 which takes us all the way back to the House Un-American Committee and the Senate SiSS committee. Both of these government committees   were actively investigating subversives at the time and engaged with Guy Bannister and others to help do so. Part 2 ties it all together and tells the story of how the raid at the Southern Conference Education Fund was an integral piece of this puzzle. Part 3 explores the larger Context of the fight in Clinton and why it was the tie in for the radical right and their violent resistance to the voter registration drives that were going on in the day. Clinton was a much larger historical factor than has previously been discussed in the JFK story. The story and explanations in this two part miniseries may be the most  plausible explanation  yet  for what Oswald was doing in Clinton and the next episode 235 presents the details of why this  seems  so believable. Much of this theory comes from author Jeff Caufield's book entitled General Walker and the Murder of President Kennedy. As the jury, you be the judge of whether this was the real reason Oswald went to Clinton. And then ponder what it means for how Oswald might have been used in Dallas and just who deployed him there... Join us throughout this series on the radical right as we highlight th the nexus of ultra right wing characters that help us understand more intuitively how the radical right may have fit into the picture of the assassination.  Characters that advance our understanding of the nexus of connections between a wide array of actors within the  radical right. And with this exercise, we show how so many of these connections lead back to New Orleans and Dallas and to particular figures of the radical right including Guy Bannister. A nexus of connections with a common thread of hatred for President Kennedy. 

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. This  real-life story is more fascinating than fiction.  No matter whether you are a serious researcher or a casual student, you will enjoy the fact filled narrative and story as  we relive one of the most shocking moments in American History. An event that changed the nation and changed the world forever.

Today's episode is part 2 of a two part miniseries.

A quick hello from your podcaster to you. I am back and happy to resume the production of episodes after a short hiatus.  Stay tuned for the first of episode revival this weekend. 

Episode 231 is the ninth in a series of episodes where we begin to explore the radical right groups of the 1960's that clearly had great motive to murder president Kennedy. Emerging, alongside civil rights leaders, as a prime target for ire of white racists,  anti-communists, and and a wide variety of other conservative groups, President Kennedy was a a target among them all. This aspect of the assassination and the connection of the radical right is little explored.  We started  many episodes back, with the story of Joseph Milteer but its rather easy to pull on that string and find much more underneath the covers. Today's episode Part 9  contnues  the story tell of the trip that Milteer took on Saturday and Sunday November 23rd and 24th to Columbia, South Carolina. Part 9 covers more of the details of  the Q&A debrief of Somersett  by the Miami Police Department on November 26th regarding the event. Milteer would first stop in Jacksonsville and pick up Willie Somersett at the Union bus station. From there they would proceed to Columbia, staying overnight and meeting the next day with four men, three of whom were identified members of the South Carolina Ku Klux Klan. The discussions that were had that weekend between Somersett and Milteer on their drive to Columbia and back,  and while they were meeting with the Klansman, solidify in Somersett's mind that Milteer was in the know about the JFK assassination.  Somersett was  confident that the conspiracy had  emanated from Miami, New Orleans and California based on comments that Milteer made to him.. What is miraculous regarding these statements by Milteer is that they were made over the weekend following the president's assassination and they were relayed by Somersett to the Miami Police Department Detective on the case just days later.  The interrogation and Q&A are preserved in transcription and are  extraordianry for their content, timing and then documentation within days of the assassination.  The broader  story of Milteer  brings together a greater element of societal underground. We hear of the traditional groups and study them including the KKK, the John Birch Society, the White Citizens Councils, The National States Rights Party and the Minutemen. These handful of groups were intertwined with men who weaved their way in and out of the shadowy existence of this intense resistance to societal change.

Today's episode Part 7 explores the Constitution Party Meeting in Indianapolis in October 1963 where Milteer  was a material player. Ths meeting was a consortium of sorts where many of the most prominent members of the radical right underground were further bound together and found an environment to further collaborate. A rift developed over the support of Strom Thurmond versus Barry Goldwater and Milteer is admonished for certain activities and nearly expelled from the party.  There story brings together a greater element of societal underground.
