Posner is a tool. He refers to the Warren Commission as a Blue Ribbon Panel. He states the obituary is verified. BS. Watch ‘The Men Who Killed Kennedy’ and hear firsthand witness testimony where person after person says the Warren Commission cherry picked their testimony.
Great interview, especially in that the author was allowed to speak without interruption, with well-timed asides & questions from the host. I've long been fascinated by the Campaign of 1840, so learning of this book is quite a thrill. I look forward to obtaining & reading a copy ASAP. I learned many new things about this campaign from listening to the program, so I'm very appreciative of that. Some of the logistical details of how Harrison physically campaigned was enlightening, as well as learning of specific campaign sites. I've always been intrigued by that giant rolling ball, as well! Although unlikely, I wonder if one still exists in a museum somewhere?. I'd sure like to see one! I just recently learned that Harrison held a huge campaign rally at the Tippecanoe battlefield which I'm sure created much excitement back in the day. I've also been curious as to whether or not Harrison & Tyler actually campaigned together. Recent reading has indicated they did not. Apparently, Tyler did no campaigning at all for the ticket on his own either. The two never even crossed paths during the entire campaign! Tyler was absent from D.C. at the time of Harrison's death, too. The VP, who wasn't doing much of anything back home in Va., was totally ignorant of Harrison's illness! I suppose Tyler was present at Old Tippecanoe's inauguration but I still need to research that. Thanks for a great show. I'm glad to have discovered it!
I think Lizzie did it because when her daddy came in from work to take a nap. Lizzie came down from being upstairs. He asked her where Abby was, Lizzie said she went out to see a sick friend. Why lie? The housekeeper had been out scrubbing windows. So Lizzie was alone inside for a while. I also think she picked that day because her uncle had been there the night before and they would've been more suspicious of a man than a woman at that time.
really the candian government took those quints because the reconed that they were concerned about the father exspoliting them the government was a lot worse they made a lot of money from doing what they said the father was going to do
Rush did the Best family guy episode EVER lol. But I miss rush so much. I can remember when i had zero clue about politics let alone the workings & charecters involved. I was 18 years old, had just been shot in baltimore & locked up for something i didn't do. Long story short im laying in baltimore city detention center , which was 99% steel, and couldnt get any kinda of reception on my walkman radio. I came across this voice, seemed to be an intro. I specifically remember him saying "your resident right wing wacko" then seamlessly going into the show. I had no clue what a right wing was,nor half the ppl he was talking about but he captivated me at 18 years old , sitting in a cell literally hopeless. With a baby on the way. In many ways im gna credit mr Rush Limbaugh with opening my eyes & more or less educating me in the way that world works. Im going to venture to say he saved my life & helped me to be the man that my children needed. There was a point in my life that the time i heart radio aired the show,was the only part of the day i had to look forward to bc things were just that bad. Its hard not to care about someone who saves your life like that.
This was great! Love this author - thank you!

Is there any audio or video of remus speaking? Every actor who portrays him omits his thick german accent? I worked at Allison & Rose Funeral Home they buried him and had a picture of casket going out door yo the hearse
If people would place the energy into todays political problems and players that they use on a 60 year old presidential assassination- we may not have the total lack of proper leadership that we have now. Come on guys- get real
Wonderful exposa. Abraham had such a tragic life.
Really good and thorough discussion. Hard to find those on youtube or most places on the net these days!
Case Closed also drew widespread criticism from academics involved in assassination research as well as from non-academic assassination researchers who contended that it contained factual inaccuracies. For example, historian David Wrone wrote that "massive numbers of factual errors suffuse the book".
In his review of Posner's book, Wrone claims that "100 percent of the witness testimony and physical evidence exclude Oswald from carrying the rifle to work that day disguised as curtain rods." This is false, as the package that Oswald carried that day measured 38 inches long, while the disassembled rifle measured just under 35 inches long. What else does Wrone get wrong?
@@9Ballr there was not one person who saw Oswald carry anything into the TSBD that day. No curtain rods. That was a fabricated story made up by Buell Wesley Frazier and his sister to protect his ass from being charged with the assassination. Frazier was arrested and asked to sign a confession by Captain Will Fritz. And he was scared and made up the curtain rod story. His own mother said she looked out the window and saw Oswald waiting for her son to come out to drive them to work and Oswald had nothing in his hands but a small little lunch bag. Do you know where Frazier worked before the TSBD? A curtain rods manufacturing company.
@@9Ballr Before he was hired at the School Book Depository, Frazier worked at a local department store, where one of his job duties was to unpack and install curtains. He said he was very familiar with the size and length of curtain rods and said Oswald's package was too small to have carried a disassembled rifle.
@@lennon1252 The package was measured and was 38 inches long.
@@9Ballr Who measured it? Wake up
Lee Oswald didn't kill anybody. Gerald Posner called on Mark Lane to defend him. He said that even though he feels Oswald was the lone gunman, he had no doubt that if Mark Lane had defended him in court, Oswald would have been acquitted.
I’m halfway convinced her uncle did it and the timeline was fudged a bit. There’s another interesting possibility though. There was a nearby farmhouse where, in the middle of the day the woman who worked and lived there was murdered with an axe while the family were away. She was killed with an axe and no apparent motive. No real robbery. They arrested a farmhand who was made to confess, and he supposedly led police to a place where a coin from the house was found hidden. That was allegedly the motive for the attack. It’s strange to me bc why take a single item of little worth and then hide it in a random location in a field instead of keeping it or using it or stealing anything else at all from the residence? Why do it in broad daylight? Why kill her at all? The house had a barn and there were plenty of other things to steal. To kill her with an axe without any apparent interference of a sexual nature (although it’s possible the motive was sexual). The man was not in jail at the time of the Borden murders. This happened within days of the Borden murders, only a few miles away. The accused was an immigrant. The only outsider who would have been immediately suspected and if he hadn’t done it, he’d be most likely have been convicted, regardless. A confession and a piece of nominal evidence are just securities for conviction uncontested.
I bet no one in these comments have read Case Closed or been to Dealey Plaza
That's what happens to presidents that do good for we the people 😂 and doesn't siphon all we the people's money into the banking cartel war's where they get rich and we the people pay with our son's and daughters and taxpayer's dollars 😂
Brooke Allen is my old music teacher she’s really sweet ! She told us that she wrote a book and her pen name is brook allen lol!
Posner is a lawyer. Pay him enough and he'll prove shit don't stink. Wonder who " sponsored " him to write his book?
Great examples of the ad hominem fallacy.
Posner will never be able to explain the Medical cover-up. He will never be able to explain a bullet that makes 7 wounds in two people. Even Arlen Spector did not believe it, and he is the one who made it up. The funny part is that Posner and Bugliosi didn't move the needle even one inch. The American public didn't believe it 60 years ago and they don't buy it now. Which means he and Bugliosi completely failed at explaining it. Because it is impossible. The ballistics never supported it, the forensics never supported it, and even none of the witnesses either.
No one else could have done this
The original shooting was with Judy garland and jack Kennedy..
The books is called “ the emerald kings “. The story of Kennedy and Judy garland!
The Os shooting.... you awake ? Kennedy and magical trajectories! Judy garland and Kennedy!.. Jackie bouvier replaced Judy garland. The Os shooting and the Oz shooting with magical trajectories... Media’s troupes got you !!! You can’t handle the truth was spin doctored Oz shooting... That began with Judy garland!!
Forget Oswald. It was the CIA
LHO was a scapegoat. It is obvious.
How can something that has NO supporting evidence be "obvious"?
Stop peddling obvious bs.
Why is it BS? There is no verifiable evidence anyone other than Oswald killed Kennedy. NONE
This guy just proved Lee didn't do it. In his own words, "He misses Walker by an inch." Are you telling the same guy who couldn't make a shot with a scoped rifle at a sitting target from LESS THAN 100 FEET away is going to kill the President in a moving vehicle from a clock tower, NOT MISSING any of his two shots??? In fact the second one (which came from IN FRONT of Kennedy) was right on target.
There were 3 shell casings in the book depository. Read the book.
Doesn't sound right t o me.
This is interesting. Never heard of Walker. Several complex aspects of LHO's life. LH Oswald was likely used by some shady people.
CIA
@@kn0wmore126bullshit there's no evidence of any conspiracy. NONE. You just want to believe there was one
What evidence shows that Oswald "was likely used by some shady people"?
No .. Lee a betrayed
See Oswald thinking Ret Gen Walker was next Hitler COMPLETELY MISSED the Fact that Hitler was a liberal socialist. Read Posners book "Case Closed". Felt it was a good book but wrong conclusion....Dulles brothers concocted, hired and ran the Kennedy assassination is my belief.
But of course the Camelot stuff was all BS too. JFK was an unsteady hand as POTUS, and largely incompetent.
Wow Rush invited Carvil to his wedding.
If you have an interest in hearing more about their wedding, I interviewed Kathryn on WFMD this past Valentine’s Day. You can find the link at historyauthor.com. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.
As a 35 year researcher Gerald I kind of respect you but I don't agree with you. Gerald, history is written by the victors & JFK would not have pushed through civil rights and may have gone down as an "Obama - like" President. One who had a great speech writer yet accomplished nothing. The CIA gave the world the legend of JFK due to his matyrism. More people are inspired by JFK than any one man in history. Geez even his presidential library is the only library to make a profit. Gerald you make me want to be a better man. 🇦🇺🌏👍🤕
Great episode! Thank you both!!
If you want a laugh, go to Dealey Plaza and see these conspiracy goofs with their signs on the anniversary of the assassination. Incels and sad sacks.
Read Gary Fannin's book "The Innocence of Lee Harvey Oswald" or just KZread it. He presents much more detailed evidence than this blowhard.
I get stuck on the way JFK's head snaps back after he grabs his throat. And "Marksman" is the lowest ranking of rifle badges in the Corps. "Sharpshooter" is one up, but not "Expert". And those are on stationary, level targets.
JFK's head moves forward the instant he is hit with the fatal head shot, as does the blood and brain tissue: kzread.info/dash/bejne/oWSYmK6AYprOgbA.html Oswald scored above expert level in the rapid-fire portion of his Marine Corps shooting tests, shooting at targets 200 yards and 300 yards away. The limo was moving slowly in virtually a straight line away from Oswald, on a 3 degree down slope, which meant that very little adjustment in aim was required. The limo was just 88 yards away at the time of the fatal head shot.
@9Ballr agreed, but explain the head obviously jerking back after the 1st shot. And where did you get the " "above expert" info? There is nothing higher than Expert in the Corps and, at least when I was in, there is no "rapid-fire" qualification.
@@justmyopinion7269 By "above expert" I mean he scored higher than what would be needed to qualify as expert. For an explanation of JFK's head movement after the initial impact a good article is President Kennedy's Fatal Head Wound and his Rearward Head Snap, which explains the movement as a physical reaction to the mass of brain substance which explodes out forward through the larger wound of exit on the front-right of the his head. For Oswald's shooting test here's the description: On December 21, 1956, Oswald was tested for marksmanship with his rifle on five different exercises-from 200, 300 and 500 yards firing slowly and from 200 and 300 yards firing rapidly. Based on these results a Marine would be rated by a defined scoring system: over 190 points was considered a marksman, over 210 was a sharpshooter, and over 220 was considered an expert. Oswald scored 212 and was rated in the middle as a sharpshooter. For the slow test, the target was 10" tall by 10" wide. For the rapid fire test the target was 26" wide by 19" tall. A closer examination of Oswald's 200 yard rapid fire result shows he hit 8/10 bullseyes and scored 48 out of 50. An expert rating on this test would have required a minimum score of 44 points (44 points x 5 tests = 220 points required). On his next test, 300 yards in rapid fire, Oswald hit 7/10 bullseyes scoring 46 out of 50. Again an expert rating on this test would have required a result of 44. So in both tests that most closely matched the conditions in the Kennedy assassination for rapid fire shooting Oswald scored above an expert level. Additionally on his third test from 500 yards firing slowly, Oswald scored 46 out of a possible 50: again shooting above an expert level.
Thank you so much for all you do James. Listening to Rush's messaging brings back wonderful memories. Keep up the great work.
Fantastic talk. I’m obsessed with the Romanovs. I wonder if Grand Duchess Olga had married into the Romanian RF, would she have then continued the Romanov line through her male heirs? It gets very complicated as I know it was through the male line and may have gone to cousins etc
I love when people have written books on my hyper focus obsessions
Just starting out with this book so far GREAT READ!!!!
Thanks so much for having me on the show, Dean! It was a blast chatting with you.
Noteworthy that Posner has deep contempt for 'leftie activists', automatically dismissing them as Oswald apologists rather than valid concerns about the well documented sinister motives and aims of CIA and Pentagon during the Cold War. Red white and blue coloured glasses Gerald? May explain why he gets very conspiracy theorist in his articles about the death of Princess Diana, outside of American politics.
I am reading Case Closed after the Reiner podcast. I genuinely have no fixed opinion either way. All I know is, reality is very messy and complex..and occasionally absurd.
Posner: Case Closed. The book to cover up the cover up.
In 1896 Garrett Hobart was President William McKinley's VP. Teddy Roosevelt wanted to be the 1900 VP candidate. Hobart refused to step aside then died in November 1899, age 55. TR and McKinley were elected November, 1900. McKinley was assassinated September, 1901 and TR became president. McKinley's campaign manager, Senator Mark Hanna, wanted to challenge TR in GOP presidential primaries in 1904. Hanna died February, 1904. TR is re-elected in November, 1904.
That's what happens to presidents that do good for we the people 😂 and doesn't siphon all we the people's money into the banking cartel war's where they get rich and we the people pay with our son's and daughters and taxpayer's dollars 😂
