Operation Truth

Tennessee tried to execute a woman twice last week. Both attempts failed. She'd been sitting on death row for thirty two years.

Tom and I spent a long time on that one, and I'll be honest with you — I've never been a proponent of the death penalty and I'm not fully comfortable with where I ended up. But Tom made a point I can't argue with. He says the standard for a capital case shouldn't be beyond a reasonable doubt. It should be beyond any doubt whatsoever. If it's on film, if there are eyewitnesses, if the DNA has you coming and going, there's no doubt.

I also tell you about some people I've known. Ghislaine Maxwell, socially, in New York. O.J. Simpson, I worked for him. Monica Lewinsky was my client during her book tour, and nobody stood up for that girl.

What I took from all of it is that people have two lives, a public one and a private one, and you have to judge both separately.

In this episode:

• What Tom would replace reasonable doubt with, and why
• Why sentencing guidelines are legislated, which means they can be changed
• Four knife attacks in a month, and what that says about the gun argument

Tom Fuentes joined me late today. I started without him, which means you get about twenty five minutes of me on my own first, and then the two of us for the rest of it.

The part I'd point you to is the Kennedy conversation. Tom ran the FBI's organized crime program and he's been working on this a long time. He walks through the Bay of Pigs, and why the CIA never forgave Kennedy for refusing to send in the Air Force. Then the back channel the Kennedy brothers opened directly to Khrushchev, and what happened inside the agency when they found out about it.

He also tells me something about Lyndon Johnson I didn't know, and I've been reading about this my whole life.

Before that I get into Mexico and the cartels, and why we'll go after Venezuela but not the people actually running a country on our border.

We get into New York, and the two words that won that election.

And we come back to where we always come back to, which is what any of this leaves for our young people.

In this episode:

• Why Tom thinks the assassination was set in motion before 1963
• What Johnson rescinded the day after Dallas
• The question I keep asking about Mexico that nobody answers

Tom Fuentes ran the FBI's worldwide organized crime program. I worked security for a capo in the Colombo family. This week we put those two careers in the same room and went at the Kennedy assassination.

Tom walks it through step by step. The Bay of Pigs, and why the CIA never forgave Kennedy for it. The order he signed in October of 1963 pulling our advisors out of Vietnam, and who stood to lose trillions if that order held. What his father promised the mob to get him elected, and what happened when Bobby got the Justice Department instead.

Before that we get into COVID and what came out of the Fauci hearings. We get into guns, and the number nobody mentions when they promise you gun control.

And we come back to the same place we always do, which is what we're handing our kids.

In this episode:

• Why Tom thinks Kennedy signed his own death warrant
• The twenty nine states that already have constitutional carry
• What Lyndon Johnson did the day after the assassination

No agenda.

Tom Fuentes is back with me this week. He's the former Assistant Director of the FBI who ran their entire international operation, and he's exactly one day older than I am, which he'll never let me forget.

We get into Iran, and I ask him the question nobody's asking. Who briefed the president on what Iran could actually do? Because Israel had people inside that country planting explosives in pagers. Somebody should have known.

We get into Russia and Ukraine, and Tom explains why he doesn't think either side walks away from this able to save face.

We get into the FBI itself, and Tom doesn't soften it. I called what happened there bumps and grinds. He told me that's too polite.

And we get into the thing underneath all of it, which is what we're handing our young people.

In this episode:

• The one reason Iran doesn't fit the nuclear logic that held for fifty years
• What a license plate reader could do in 1973, and what it took to fix it
• Why Tom thinks our schools stopped teaching the things that matter most

No agenda. Nobody telling you who to vote for. Find us on YouTube.

I took a little hiatus. Now I'm back, and I want to start with an apology to our children.

My generation broke almost every institution they were supposed to believe in. The government. The media. Science. Our schools. We didn't do a good job, and I think we owe them the truth about it.

So that's what this show is. No agenda. Nobody telling you who to vote for. Just what I know after 53 years in law enforcement and a lot of years traveling and listening to people smarter than me.

Today I get into guns, and I say some things you probably haven't heard. I get into immigration and the numbers nobody reports. And I get into the cameras and the technology that are watching all of us right now.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why banning guns misses the actual problem, and what we screen for instead
• The immigration number that's bigger than the border, and why nobody says it out loud
• What happens when police get a tool with no controls on it... and 24 officers found out

If you want more conversations like this one, follow the show.

 37:03 Overpopulated and undercounted
 38:48 Love your children more than your politics
