Mort Sahl’s Warning to America

Monday, February 15th, 2021

Mort Sahl: This is 20 years too late, man. They’ve been drafting people like you for 20 years. So that eventually 435 honorable men in the Congress don’t even object, and nobody votes against the Un-American Activities Committee, and nobody says anything about the war, and nobody says anything about anything, and nobody says anything about murder in the streets. I’ve been crying fascism, fascism. How much success, how heady was the sensation, and how intoxicated with the fascists in this country to get to a point where they thought they could go ahead with this boldest stroke as killing him in the street? Well, obviously what makes them think they can get away with it? The experience of getting away with it over the years! They tend to get power drunk because they’ve been successful. It gets crazier and crazier. They’ve extended fascism without challenge for so long in this country, a generation since 1945, the dark days, this long night started with Roosevelt’s death. You can chart the whole thing and it gets to a point where a whole generation doesn’t know any better.

Robert Kennedy talks about a massive retaliation and communism and capitalism and vehicular capability. You’re brought up on those terms, man. You can’t even tell when somebody is jiving you anymore because it’s 20 years of madness.

As much as my Jewish friends aren’t going to like it, the German people weren’t born crazy. They were made so by their government. They were made in the form which is most convenient to that government, which is fascistic, which broke the backs of the unions and used the anti-Semitism as a dodge. Same thing is happening here. They’re trying to drive the American people crazy. I’ll tell you something: I think they’re succeeding. There’s great evidence in the barbarism of day-to-day life and in the lack of direction and the degree of a lack of mental health in this country.

I’m not suggesting going to a psychiatrist because most of them are sellouts too. Sad to say because they know better, but all they want to do is to repair you and get you back on the line to keep punching out Mustang frames. That’s the trouble.

Letter to Castro

Monday, June 15th, 2020

Rummaging through RFK’s Attorney General files at the JFK Library in Boston, we found an article a proud father stashed away back in 1963.

Entitled: LETTER TO CASTRO-

Dear Castro)

Cuba is good but you are bad. You have ruined all Cuba,s hopes for independence since you became a comunist. For your sake and Cubas sake we all hope you return to your Catholic faith. You had a better faith than you have now. The better you make it for your country the better you make it for yourself. Your country will be proud if you help them. I hope after this letter you will see things clearer.

Bobby Kennedy and Kevin O’Donnell

Bobby, son of the Attorney General is 8; Kevin son of Ken O’Donnell, Special Assistant to the President, is 7.

Cronkite

Tuesday, February 18th, 2020

Cronkite cried the day he told us Kennedy died.

For the next quarter of a century, “the most trusted man in America” became the media flag bearer for Warren Commission apologists.

In a 1987 interview with Rolling Stone, the retired Cronkite hedged his bet.

Rolling Stone – Twenty years ago you did a documentary on the Warren Commission report on the assassination of President Kennedy. You said that the report was flawed, but the most plausible that could be expected, and that CBS News concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald was the sole assassin. In the years since, have you had any reason to doubt that?

Cronkite – Yes. We did not know, at that time, a rather important, salient matter: the CIA plot to assassinate Castro. An additional little fact was that Lyndon Johnson thought there was a conspiracy. I’m assuming that what he knew probably was just what we learned later about the CIA’s involvement in Cuba.

Rolling Stone – As you look back on the late Sixties, do you think there’s a connection between the trauma of the assassination of President Kennedy, and the doubts about the circumstances of it, and so much of the trauma and disenchantment that took place in this country after that? Did it manifest itself in the streets?

Cronkite – I wouldn’t say that the Kennedy assassination alone could have triggered that, but I think the series of assassinations – Martin Luther King, then Robert Kennedy – has a cumulative effect, which, I think, broke down our natural resistance to violence and kind of set loose hysteria. It manifested itself in the streets.

We’ll probably never know …

Tuesday, February 19th, 2019

“After November 22 I don’t want to hear about the JFK case again. It is a nightmare to work on, not only a labyrinth but a labyrinth with lots of turnings off the labyrinth. The best answer is that we don’t know the answer, and probably never will.”

– Anthony Summers 2013 (author: Conspiracy)

When it comes to the JFK Assassination, for many survivors, the topic is still taboo. Over 55 years after the deed.

Most don’t like to talk about it.

It’s as if everyone knows something was wrong but are afraid to acknowledge or come to terms with our recent past.

When Dick Goodwin was asked if the CIA killed JFK, he spoke as if his home office was bugged: “I never saw any evidence the CIA was involved in Kennedy’s assassination.”

Of course, that wasn’t the question.

There’s been many patsy’s to the murder of our 35th president, starting with Lee Harvey Oswald, Castro, Russia, Mafia, Texas oil men, anti-Castro Cubans, renegade CIA officers, derelict secret service agent(s), and ending with their last, final ditch effort official position: “we’ll probably never know.”

Fortunately, for history’s sake, the official government theories and conclusions have been unmasked and, although there won’t be any indictments, historically, a century from now, the assassination of #35 will be known as a conspiracy. A coup d’etat.

coup d’é·tat

/ˌko͞o dāˈtä/

noun

another term for coup (sense 1).

synonyms: seizure of power, coup, overthrow, takeover, ousting, deposition, regime change;

The Void

Monday, January 28th, 2019

Dealey Plaza, Dallas, TX. November 22, 1963.

Dallas Sheriff Roger Craig broke ranks at the sound of gunfire and ran to Dealey Plaza as the Leader of the Free World was assassinated.

Sheriff Craig reported to the Warren Commission: “I heard a shrill whistle coming from the north side of Elm Street. I turned and saw a white male in his twenties running down the grassy knoll from the direction of the Texas School Book Depository Building. A light green Rambler station wagon was coming slowly west on Elm Street. The driver of the station wagon was a husky looking Latin, with dark wavy hair, wearing a tan windbreaker type jacket. He was looking up at the man running toward him. He pulled over to the north curb and picked up the man coming down the hill. I tried to cross Elm Street to stop them and find out who they were. The traffic was too heavy and I was unable to reach them.

After the Oswald arrest, Sheriff Craig was brought to Captain Fritz’s office to identify Oswald.

Captain Fritz said: “What’s this about a station wagon?”

The suspect interrupted, “- That station wagon belongs to Mrs. Paine. Don’t try to tie her into this. She had nothing to do with it.” He continued, “I told you people I did” adding dejectedly, “everybody will know who I am now.”

Over 55 years later we still don’t know.

After multiple attempts on his life, Roger Craig was found dead in his father’s house on May 15, 1975. His death was an apparent suicide.

A life time ago …

Friday, January 25th, 2019

Image result for carlos bringuier

We imagined we’d be sitting on top of a multi-media empire. We’d be Kings of the Internet.

Instead we’ve become a novelty. A circus act.

A freak show.

But have we done all we could?

The answer is, as we look into the abyss: no.

We’re afraid to make the phone calls.

We don’t know all the questions.

We don’t know the angle.

Is there an angle? Probably not.

We’re not ready.

15 minutes on the internet and we have 4 names and numbers of people we’d like to talk to: Carlos Bringuier (84), Alvin Beauboeuf (79), Ruth Paine (86) and Bernardo De Torres (84).

Soon, of course, it will be too late. Their combined age is 333.

Each of them knows something. Carlos knew Lee in New Orleans. He knew he wasn’t really a Castro sympathizer. Al knew David Ferrie very well. Very well. He knows why they went on a goose hunting/ice skating trip to Texas the day of the assassination. Ruth Paine, too, knows Lee’s true background. She knows all about her babysitting assignment. De Torres knows quite a bit too. There are rumors that he was in Dealey Plaza that day posing as a photographer. The House Select Committee believed he had photographs of The Big Event.

Time catches up to all of us.

To quote President Kennedy:

And if we cannot end now our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity. For, in the final analysis, our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this small planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children’s future. And we are all mortal.

Not In Your Lifetime

Tuesday, January 8th, 2019

Referring to JFK Assassination evidence, Chief Justice Earl Warren told reporters:

“There will come a time when testimony taken by the Commission will be made public. But it might not be in your lifetime. There may be some things that would involve security. This would be preserved but not made public.”

If Chief Justice Warren had his way, JFK records would remain sealed until, at least, 76 years after The Deed.

This would make even the most senile of survivors in their 80’s or 90’s.

Certainly no one that actually grieved the loss of our 35th President.

Even with the arrival of the internet and “early” declassification of some of the hidden records, Warren, essentially, got what he wanted anyway.

The JFK Assassination

Wednesday, October 17th, 2018

Most everyone that has honestly studied the JFK Assassination understands what happened.

Not, perhaps, who pulled the trigger or who, at the highest level gave the final nod of approval, but they understand it was a CIA operation.

All the way. Always was. Still is.

The internet is a wild and wondrous place.

They say “if it’s on the internet, it’s got to be true.”

How right they are.

Who else are you going to trust? CNN? Fox? NBC? The New York Times? The Washington Post?

Trust the internet.

Of course, there are many different truths to many different people.

We can tell you: Robert Wagner killed Natalie Wood, there are baseball players in the Hall of Fame that used steroids, and the CIA killed JFK.

Put that on our tombstone.

1968 Mort Sahl Interview –

Friday, September 28th, 2018

1968 Interview with Elliot Mintz regarding being blackballed from Hollywood for speaking out about the JFK assassination.

Mort Sahl: Yes, I found myself completely unemployable. Completely.

Elliot Mintz: You couldn’t get a job anywhere.

Mort Sahl: Yeah, nowhere. You know-

Elliot Mintz: What would happen when your agents would call the nightclubs, TV stations, or-

Mort Sahl: What would happen is – America’s not Germany and it’s not well enough organized. So sometimes guys fall in the trap and a guy would call you and offer you a job on Friday and by the time I get back to him on Tuesday, he would’ve changed in his mind.

Elliot Mintz: What happened in the interim, Mort? Who would make the telephone calls to the booking agents?

Mort Sahl: Well, I did. Then after a while, I didn’t.

Elliot Mintz: No, I mean, who spoke with the booking agents and the people who could give you employment and say, “Don’t touch Sahl?”

Mort Sahl: Oh, you mean from the other end?

Elliot Mintz: Yeah.

Mort Sahl: Well, several people. A vice president of a network here in this city, and there are only three, said to my agent, “If I try to use Mort,” he said, “whom I respect, I’ll lose my job.” That’s a man with seniority I might add at the network.

Vice president of a leading motion picture and television studio here said, “Don’t ever mention his name in this office.” That offended. That offended by it.

Elliot Mintz: Were they functioning independently, Mort, because of their own hang-ups or with somebody … like who threatened the vice president of the network?

Mort Sahl: Well, you don’t know… It’s hard to be both, as I told you the other night, a corpse and a detective too. 15% of this puzzle is missing because people won’t come out of the bushes and say … They will come out of the shadows and say, “We are conspirators.” I don’t believe that the government calls everybody. I think that people are sufficiently corrupt and enjoy a mutuality of interests that they will behave as they do.

One of the leading television commentators said to me when I said, “What are you going to do about the Garrison case?”

He said, “Oh, I’m going to stay away from him.” He told me that openly, but that would be his course. That would be his fearless course of informing the American people of who killed our President.

The best way, of course, was for everybody to call me paranoiac and to look the other way. And I’ve had some pretty important people tell me that, because what can they do? Can they admit, again, that this is not the best of all possible worlds? Because then they might have to do a patch and we’ll have to do a repair job. But they’re not prepared sufficiently to even sweep the room and take care of it, be custodians of the room hygienically, let alone re-paper the walls and make some improvements on the property. They are all by and large a gutless breed. There are several levels here in Hollywood. There’s the level of “I’m not talented. He’s having bad luck. It might rub off on me and I’ll really be in trouble. I better keep away.” The straight opportunism. But there are some remarks that are hard to answer. There’s Bill Cosby who said, “I have a wife and kids. I can’t be seen with him.”

Elliot Mintz: Wow.

Mort Sahl: How’s that? How’s that? A wife and kids and I addressed my remarks to him one week. I said, “I’d like to know what you’re going to leave your wife and kids. What are you going to leave your kids in America?” We have America. That’s all we have. And the signs are that we are losing her.

Elliot Mintz: Mort, what about your friends? What happened with them?

Mort Sahl: My friends?

Elliot Mintz: Your close friends, people who-

Mort Sahl: Well, they vanished. I know they’re around because I go to see them in pictures all the time. But I’m glad that they’re still available to me on film as my memories are treasured.

Elliot Mintz: Really? Was it really like that? I mean, right now-

Mort Sahl: There was a social ostracism. What friends do I have now?

Elliot Mintz: Yeah. How many people could you call now and say, “Hey man, I’d like to get together with you and rap,” you know?

Mort Sahl: Well, you’re the newest. I would say Mark Lane, Jim Garrison, Maggie Field and Enrico Banducci at the hungry i.

Elliot Mintz: I’m in pretty good company.
