Meeting RFK, Jr.

                                           

RFK, Jr, [Then and Now] {Photo: Tablet Magazine}

I've been encouraged to write about my experiences with Political and Military luminaries in my formative years.

During those moments, I was merely the offspring of my well-connected parents (Mom, a NYC Socialite, Dad, a Career Army officer), or, a friend of a friend who was inside those circles.  Over the years, I'd meet famous politicians/presidents, political appointees, generals and admirals, CIA and DIA leadership, Movie Stars and Entertainers, Authors, and Shadow Government leaders.  In retrospect, it all seems extraordinary, but, during those meetings, they were just meetings which were interesting, slightly educational, and fun events on which to reflect.

My introduction to the RFK family, and RFK, Jr (when he was about 12 years old) came about via two sources.  The first through a college roommate in 1965, and later, in 1967 through the gal I was then dating.                          

             Hickory Hill

My college roommate's sister worked for newly-elected Senator Robert F Kennedy, so, with his sister's access, we would attend an occasional social event at the RFK residence (Hickory Hill) in Langley, Virginia [just down the street from the CIA - where I would, a few years later spend considerable time in the 1980s)]. 

Ethel Kennedy

Later, following my graduation from Chapel Hill in 1966, I attended an occasional RFK social event in 1967 through the gal I was then dating.  Her two room-mates worked for Bobby and Ethel who were the growing celebrities in DC, holding numerous gatherings with eclectic guest lists.  One room-mate was Bobby's Senatorial Aide (a lawyer), arranging political and social connections, with many a journalist and photographer attending.  The other was Ethel's Social Secretary - the keeper of all RFK secrets.  In Washington in that era, these soirées were the political connection mechanism, so anyone aspiring to political ascendency was certain to attend.  

[While he lived at Hickory Hill, Robert Kennedy became the US Attorney General in 1961; a US senator in 1965; and a presidential candidate in 1968.]

Now, the Kennedy families knew how to party, and in Bobby's massive living room, there was a Juke Box positioned with an extensive collection of pop music - designed to frustrate hand-held tape recorders, enabling free form gossip and deal-making (not so different from today's political events). 

Robert Kennedy loved animals, particularly dogs - and Newfoundland dogs.  His favorite was Brumus - weighing in at about 175 pounds; he frequently accompanied the Senator to his office.  There was at least one other Newfoundland, and several other breeds wandering about the house, mingling with the guests and keeping an eye on the kids.  The kids all made the rounds with the guests, and were then shunted upstairs to their bedrooms where they would retire from the evening excitement.

Of course, there were strict rules for attendance at these events.

1) Attendance was by name invitation only

2) Security guards were casually dressed, on the lookout for interlopers.

3) All guests were restricted to the first floor living room 

RFK Family

4) No one was allowed to take photos of the Kennedy kids

5) No one was to go upstairs.

The Kennedy families were known for their prolific families, and Bobby and Ethel produced 11 kids, all of whom could be identified by the Kennedy buck teeth (must be something in Boston water).  

At one of these visits [routine and party] I had occasion to meet young Robert, Jr, a pleasant young fellow about 13 years old.  I doubt he would remember me, although I would likely be able to identify him now.

During these parties, which might go on well into the night, guests were quite well engaged, and journalists and photographers were eager to capture iconic photos of all the guests and luminaries of the era.  It was the way Washington worked back then, and likely still does. 

[With luck, the photographers might get a photo of the RFK herd.]

At one of these events, an enterprising [but rather stupid] photographer, decided to sneak up the staircase to capture photos of the kids. He assumed he would be the hero of the news world, and Kennedy kids' photos were quite profitable due to the insistence on privacy by all Kennedy members following the JFK assassination.

RFK on the Staircase

 [Who would have guessed that a journalist photographer would engage in nefarious affairs.] 

He would be the hero of the news world, and Kennedy kids photos were rare, particularly after the murder of Senator Percy's daughter in her bedroom in the Percy house.

[Brumus' Breed ]

Now this enterprising fellow had made it halfway up the staircase, camera in hand, at the ready, to take lots of photos, when he heard a growl above him.  There at the top of the stairs was perched an enormous black Newfoundland dog with bared teeth; 

the photographer carefully turned to descend the stairs, only to encounter Brumus, an equally enormous Newfoundland, also growling and with bared teeth.  

Approached from above and below, there was no escape from certain "death by Newfoundland", creating a situation in which the photographer somehow lost control of his bladder.

It was then that he noticed one of the Security Guards motioning for him to continue his descent, past Brumas, and hopefully into the safety of the Security Guard.  To his great relief, Brumas did not eat him; but, to his embarrassment, the entirety of the guests had emerged from the Living Room to witness this ordeal - which remained "unpublished" by the Media.  However, the Media was thus warned that such violations of the Rules would not be tolerated. 

The photographer was subsequently banned from any other event in Washington, and was reportedly shunned by his colleagues. 

Ed Note:

This is one of the numerous "luminaries I've met" stories I will include in my up-coming book - which I may actually complete at some point in the foreseeable future.  Sometimes the circumstances of the meeting are, by themselves, quite interesting - but they expose the luminaries as just ordinary folks, like you and me.

FOONOTE:

Reviewing the assassination of ROBERT F KENNEDY, Sr.  

After winning the California primary, shortly after midnight on June 5, 1968, in Los Angeles, Robert Kennedy was assassinated in the Ambassador Hotel pantry; the murder occurred following RFK's successful campaign in California's primary elections; he was the leading 1968 Democratic presidential candidate. He died the following day.

Sirhan Sirhan, a 24-year-old Palestinian, was accused of shooting Kennedy as he walked through the restaurant kitchen.  The reason given was in retaliation for RFK's support of Israel following the 1967 Six-Day War. 

[Oddly, Robert's brother, JFK, was assassinated because he was demanding twice yearly inspections of Israel's nuclear development as it was leading to nuclear weapons.  (Was the RFK assassination another Mossad False Flag op - to conveniently prop up a Palestinian as the assassin?)] 

Sirhan was arrested, tried, and convicted, but the Kennedy family demanded that Sirhan not be sentenced to death since it was obvious he was not the shooter, 

[Similarly, in the JFK assassination, the shooter was certified to be other than Lee Harvey Oswald (a US Navy Intelligence under-cover operative)].

1) Analysis of an audio recording of the shooting made by Stanislaw Pruszynski and forensic expert Philip van Praag indicated that at least 13 shots were fired.

2) Van Praag said the audio recording revealed there were at least two instances in which the time between shots was shorter than humanly possible, and different resonances; thus  there was more than one gun.

3) Witnesses claimed there were multiple bullet holes in the door frames of the pantry [which were later destroyed]. "There were too many bullets; you can't fire 13 shots out of an 8-shot gun".

4) Kennedy's wounds indicated his assailant had stood directly behind him, 

5) But. Witnesses said Sirhan was facing west, 3 feet from Kennedy,

6) Kennedy was moving eastward through the pantry. 

7) Sirhan approached as Kennedy was turning to his left, facing north, exposing his right side, which was away from Sirhan.

8) Thomas Noguchi, Chief Medical Examiner-Coroner for LA County, stated the fatal shot was behind RFK's right ear had been fired at a distance of one inch!

More Forensic Evidence:

In 1975, a panel of seven experts in forensics found that the three bullets that hit RFK were all fired from the same gun, but there was no match between those bullets and Sirhan's revolver. 

An internal police document concluded that 

"Kennedy and Weisel bullets {were} not fired from same gun" and "Kennedy bullet was not fired from Sirhan's revolver."

Sirhan's defense attorneys filed a 62-page brief asserting that a bullet used as evidence to convict Sirhan was switched with another bullet at the crime scene. The brief claims that this was done because the bullet taken from Kennedy's neck did not match Sirhan's gun. [duplicating the circumstances of the Reagan assassination attempt by HInkley]

Eyewitness John Pilger asserted there must have been multiple gunmen since the pistol claimed to have been used by Sirhan held only 8 rounds, and a total of 13 rounds were fired from two different caliber weapons - neither of which belonged to Sirhan.

SAN DIEGO (08/27/2021) 

Sirhan Sirhan {Fall Guy}
[55 years in prison because
he was a Palestinian!]

 

— California’s parole board voted to free Robert F. Kennedy’s (accused) assassin after two of RFK’s sons said they supported releasing him and prosecutors declined to argue he should be kept behind bars. 

But the governor ultimately will decide if Sirhan Sirhan leaves prison.

[Does this sound like the official government discrepancies explaining the attempt to assassinate Donald Trump in Butler, Ohio?]

 

EXECUTIVE ORDER 13959 [CHYNA!]

 

Does China Control International Commerce?

SPOOKDBLOG PREFACE:  

In my Intelligence and Military Career, I focused on the Chyna Threat and became well informed on the Peoples Republic of China.  While I served as an Intelligence Officer in the Vietnam War, I met, and befriended the OSS (former) WW2 Advisor to Mao Tse Tung; his son worked for me as both an Interpreter and as a clandestine Operative. Among other accomplishments, his son acquired the PRC People's Liberation Army [PLA] operations manual and motion picture training film on creating and developing  "Insurgencies", which I found beneficial in penetrating the Chinese Training Center for recruited Asian insurgents.  

I shifted from my assignment in Laos to a new CIA assignment in Thailand to work with the Thai Communist Suppressions Operational Command [CSOC] and the Thai Border Patrol Police [BPP], and found a Chynese logistics element in direct support of the Thai Insurgency in northeast Thailand.  

Ultimately, I employed the resources under my control [e.g., NSA, and the USAF 8th Tactical Fighter Wing F4 Phantoms] to track and locate the Communist Insurgent operations center [HQ 505] in northeast Cambodia.

Previously, through my interrogations in Laos, I determined the location of the Chinese-sponsored Pathet Lao logistics center in north Laos (near Muang Khoua), and "neutralized" it (a story I'll include in my book), thus ending the Spring Offensive before it began.  Nonetheless, the Chinese, based in northern Laos, continued their support of the Thai Insurgency by sending supplies cross-country and down-river.  Compliments of NSA technology and USAF F4/AC-130 reconnaissance aircraft, we were able to locate and destroy the Thai Insurgent HQ 505 in northern Cambodia [but that's another chapter in my book].

Having lost that operational foothold, the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) moved its army through northern Laos and invaded Chiang Rai, Thailand in 1975 (immediately following Kissinger's withdrawal of US Military and Intelligence Operations).  This three-year secret war [never reported in the World Press] was fought by the Thai Army, Taiwan's Kuomintan Army (KMT), and Hmong guerrillas trained by US Special Forces during the Vietnam War; an Australian Military Officer coordinated the Thai defense.  The only record of that invasion is a massive memorial building citing the names of all the soldiers who died defending Thailand.

With that as background dating back to the 1960s, I continued to monitor Chyna as a "potential adversary" in training US Military units on Tactical Intelligence methods, as well as alerting combat G2s [Intelligence Officers] how to tap into Strategic Intelligence resources such as NSA and NRO.  My personal network, over the years, included Chyna experts whose knowledge was "first-hand" - thus I claim credibility when I discuss Chyna.

More currently, I write about the Chynese Threat since I recognize it as extraordinarily dangerous, since it has penetrated our Bureaucracy, Academia, and Business Establishment/Wall Street with "scholars" who are funnels of information into the Chinese Intelligence system.  They have created countless US shell/front companies which finance and control US companies - some of which are Defense Contractors.  Our Intelligence Community is saturated with Chinese nationals claiming to be patriotic US citizens.

[I fired one Chinese "expert" at DIA since his polygraph was repeatedly "Inconclusive", and he routinely vacationed in Hong Kong - a short boat ride to Kowloon, and  Mainland China.  Nonetheless, the DIA hierarchy felt I was unnecessarily discriminating, and was perhaps a "Racist".]

[As an aside, I was also the Pentagon Intelligence Desk Officer covering the Soviet/ UnionEastern Europe Desk - so I was conversant with the USSR-threat, as well as today's Russian "threat", to include the near miss we had for WW3 when President Reagan was shot - and Alexander Haig neutralized the situation.   Thus, I'm aware of our two greatest Potential Adversaries.]

After leaving DIA, I learned that George H.W. Bush, in addition to his long-term links to the Colombian Narcotics Cartels, was closely tied to China, as was 0bama - whose Treasury Secretary, while New York Fed President in 2008, had unofficially printed up a massive amount of Federal Reserve Notes and transported them, via Indonesia, to China - doubling China's Gross Domestic Product - accounting for the Chinese Economic Miracle. 

[Immediately after leaving office, Tim Geithner became the Financial Advisor to China!]

If you read the Executive Order below, you'll note that the content is aimed at Chyna's various maneuvers to gain control of the US economy, either directly, or through front companies which purchase our investment companies, Stock Brokerages, and our large companies, Defense Contractors, our farmland, portions of our Infrastructure, and many of our politicians.  The tools in this EO cover all the Chyneese mechanisms for control of the US economy - and the US.

[Of special consideration is that ALL Chynese companies [and their US subsidiaries] are regarded a part of Chyna's Military and Intelligence networks; and it is mandatory that a Chynese Military or Intelligence Officer is appointed to a Board of Directors seat.  ]

Sadly, our News Media (what's left of it) has yet to report on the two Chinese Infantry divisions on our Canadian border, as well as another one in Mexico.  Off-shore, in the Atlantic and Pacific, we have Chinese (and Russian) warships [to include nuclear armed submarines], plus Military container ships loaded with Military logistics.  They have loaded up warehouses and storage units throughout the US with Military supplies as well.  Chinese troops are transported throughout the US, incognito, in rail road cars designed to move livestock.  

[I would recommend Federal Marshals or SpecOps troops randomly search these trains to see if any of the "livestock" speak Chinese.]

China, ignoring our Monroe Doctrine [as have most US politicians] is gaining influence and control in South America.

Read this Executive Order, dated 12NOV2020, carefully, and you'll see how this Chynese threat can, and will be controlled.

Addressing the Threat From Securities Investments 

That Finance Communist Chinese Military Companies

    By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) (IEEPA), the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), and Section 301 of Title 3, United States Code,

    I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the United States of America, find that the People's Republic of China (PRC) is increasingly exploiting United States capital to resource and to enable the development and modernization of its military, intelligence, and other security apparatuses, which continue to allow the PRC to directly threaten the United States homeland and United States forces overseas, including by developing and deploying weapons of mass destruction, advanced conventional weapons, and malicious cyber-enabled actions against the United States and its people.

    Key to the development of the PRC's military, intelligence, and other security apparatuses is the country's large, ostensibly private economy. Through the national strategy of Military-Civil Fusion, the PRC increases the size of the country's Military-Industrial Complex by compelling civilian Chinese companies to support its military and intelligence activities. Those companies, though remaining ostensibly private and civilian, directly support the PRC's military, intelligence, and security apparatuses and aid in their development and modernization.

    At the same time, those companies raise capital by selling securities to United States investors that trade on public exchanges both here and abroad, lobbying United States index providers and funds to include these securities in market offerings, and engaging in other acts to ensure access to United States capital. In that way, the PRC exploits United States investors to finance the development and modernization of its military.

    I therefore further find that the PRC's Military-Industrial Complex, by directly supporting the efforts of the PRC's military, intelligence, and other security apparatuses, constitutes an unusual and extraordinary threat, which has its source in substantial part outside the United States, to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States. To protect the United States homeland and the American people, I hereby declare a national emergency with respect to this threat.

Accordingly, I hereby order:

    Section 1 

    (a) The following actions are prohibited:

        (i) beginning 9:30 a.m. Eastern Standard Time on January 11, 2021, any transaction in publicly traded securities, or any securities that are derivative of, or are designed to provide investment exposure to such securities, of any Communist Chinese military company as defined in section 4(a)(i) of this order, by any United States person; 

    and

        (ii) beginning 9:30 a.m. Eastern Standard Time on the date that is 60 days after a person is determined to be a Communist Chinese Military Company pursuant to Section (4)(a)(ii) or (iii) of this Order, any transaction in publicly traded securities, or any securities that are derivative of, or are designed to provide investment exposure to such securities, of that person, by any United States person.

    (b) Notwithstanding subsection (a)(i) of this section, purchases for value or sales made on or before 11:59 p.m. eastern standard time on November 11, 2021, solely to divest, in whole or in part, from securities that any United States person held as of 9:30 a.m. eastern standard time on January 11, 2021, in a Communist Chinese Military Company as defined in Section 4 (a) (i) of this order, are permitted.

    (c) Notwithstanding Subsection (a) (ii) of this Section, for a person determined to be a Communist Chinese Military Company pursuant to section 4 (a) (ii) or (iii) of this order, purchases for value or sales made on or before 365 days from the date of such determination, solely to divest, in whole or in part, from securities that any United States Person held in such person, as of the date 60 days from the date of such determination, are permitted.

    (d) The prohibitions in Subsection (a) of this Section apply except to the extent provided by Statutes, or in regulations, orders, directives, or licenses that may be issued pursuant to this order, and notwithstanding any contract entered into or any license or permit granted before the date of this order.

    Section  2
