He was a great man, and a pig. Many great men are pigs.


Oskar Schindler, by all accounts a pretty base character, still was a great man in one matter—a very important matter. God doesn’t always pick saints to do His work. For all of his faults, MLK did do great work in deinstitutionalizing racial segregation in this country. That said some are doing their best to bring segregation back—see safe places, special graduations, etc. etc.

Stop and research David Garrow and the legacy he has built for himself as THE prominent historian and author on MLK. He is said to have interviewed over 700 MLK friends and associates before writing his Pulitzer biography on King in the ‘80’s. He is not a politician or a tool like Paul Ryan.

Those two names do not belong in the same sentence.

Deny, deny all you like. King’s best friend and man who carried the civil rights mantle after King’s death described the night King died. -Rev. Ralph Abernathy “Walls came Tumbling Down.”

Over thirty years ago, Abernathy disclosed that King had slept with two women that night and physically assaulted a third ‘regular mistress’ that surprised him that fateful night. Upon his death, King’s shocked friends assumed it was either an irate boyfriend or husband of one of King’s girls or possibly one of his (3) jealous mistresses gone mad.

There are too many tapes, dates, names, places, summaries, transcripts, witness interviews, and video surveill from public hallways that depict the reality of King’sroad trips- including Oslo.

And the FBI never used any of this to dethrone King. A simple phone call to the hotel front desk would have exposed King. His career as a pastor and CR leader would have ended. Instead, the FBI knew he was a peaceful and calming force among a sea of angry hate and violence; he was in the nation’s best interest.

Besides, since they are surveilling King due to communist support, funding and connections, he’s still the preferred leader. The other Black groups are likely receiving the similar CPUSA support if not greater. Certainly, the Communists would be wise to have funded all groups of political unrest and worm their way through.

Big deal...

obama got his political start by smearing his opponent by making public a sealed divorced case.

What was the legal basis for taping MLK? I know the they thought he was a communist, but even in the 60s that shouldn’t have been enough. If there were allegations of rape they should have been handled by local LEO.

Just think if we could have taped and followed Hoover.

Still beating that MLK drum I see. This is ably the 4th or 5th thread you’ve posted about it. He was too uppity and should have sat at the back of the bus I guess.

How is that a suicide prompter? It meant retire from the public eye and stay in the pulpit.

I think Dolores Evans is the one he fathered a daughter with in Los Angeles. She was married to a prominent dentist who would publicly proclaim King to be the ‘great hypocrite.’ Maybe the FBI tipped the jealous Evan’s husband and he wrote the letter.

There is far more evidence on MLK than ever needed to convict Thomas Jefferson.

Some new stuff in the past few days, Rhino.

Yes, I’d say he liked keeping it ‘up’. lol ‘Playing around and having some FUN’ on the back of the bus, is just like playing around on the back of the plane in the ‘mile-high club.’

And whose paying for those flights to Hawaii, LA, SF, NY, D.C, Vegas, Chicago, Dallas? Whose paying for the Lux hotel rooms, booze, extra women, etc.?

CPUSA- Monies rotated around by Levison and fellow travelers.

FBI is a criminal organization that was created shaped, and run by a homo, that works in blackmail, illegal wiretaps, and framing in ops only slightly more sophisticated than simply planting a kilo of cocaine in your backseat.
And as far as MLK being recorded, i doubt someone said “yo this is Martin...rape that woman Jeff”. Who knows what the FBI took leaps of faith on.

And if a rape happened, why didn’t F-troop bust down the door?

That letter was pretty sick. Someone really seemed desperate to stop the end of legal segregation.

Sadly, MLKs wife was so trusting she took the letter to the FBI did they could investigate it. They must have had a good laugh as such trust in law enforcement. Pricks.

The people working the hardest for communism were the people trying to save segregation. Flat out communist agents for demonstrating for the world that America was not living up to the basic ideal of our founding. This was a wonderful “in” for CPUSA to pretend they were the defenders of rights for American blacks.

We mustn’t conflate the FBI of today with that time frame. They had the ‘goods’ on King, but did not act to stop him, for 10 years. The Communist money trail after subpoena of the IRS records had taken a back seat to sexual deviancy. They wanted to shut him down, but he was doing the greater good for advancement of civil rights in contrast to the other groups.

Garrow is confident the information is accurate and I stand by Garrow because I know others that have known him for decades. He would not risk his own legacy and reputation to write defamatory falsehoods about KIng when he has sung his praises forever.

His amazing and thorough research ‘white-washed’ King’s legacy for years. He won the 1987 Pulitzer Prize for “Bearing the Cross: Martin Luther King Jr.& the SCLC.” Actually, Garrow knew about the rape assault tape in 1980 because he heard about it from several in the DOJ who had personally heard the tape when the SCLC & King family sued to have it sealed. Garrow chose not to write about it, with no concrete proof since he only had ‘hearsay.’ Now he stumbles upon the written account that is exactly what he had heard years earlier.

He has been writing about FBI surveillance for 40 years and said that of the tapes that he has listened to, the corresponding summaries are “about 99% accurate.” “The only errors we usually see is when the FBI is too phonetic or too literal...”

Those who have heard the tapes would include: dozens of FBI agents, Kennedy’s, Congressmen and DOJ lawyers working the 1977 case and the federal judge that sealed the tapes. King has a very distinctive voice, BTW.

Likewise, King’s extensive plagiarism was basically not known in 1987, when Garrow wrote his initial MLK book. A few years later, the vast verbatim continuous intellectual property theft by King has been revealed and quietly well documented. On this accord, Garrow has given King a race-card pass. But, the rape incident... No, not any more.

The FBI: What if the victim had been underage or was being beaten, strangled? Absolutely, they should have halted this assault! A ‘faked phone call’ or ‘bellman’ from the ‘front desk’ could have interrupted the rape without exposing their surveil team. The FBI should have anticipated that something like this would have happened. Maybe they were waiting for King to jump in?

I'd agree, not only for the reasons you mentioned but for a dinner evening at which I shared a table with Ralph Abernathy, the main speaker at an event I was attending in the mid 1980s.

I'm not sure how I ended up at the same table, but suppose it was because I was relatively young and relatively white and something the event organizers wanted.

Abernathy was Dr. King's closest friend and succeeded him as president of the SCLC. He gave a good speech but even better tidbits to his dining companions. Abernathy clearly loved and respected King as the key civil rights leader of the area.

But he was just as clear that King had an itch to be laid regularly and often. Scores of women would come to his room when he was on the road, which was most of the time in the months leading up to his death.

The main problem of King's companions wasn't finding him women willing to copulate with him, but screening them out to a manageable number like the one to three per night which he could realistically handle. Abernathy always feared his assassin would be an angry husband or boyfriend and not some nobody like James Earl Ray. He wasn't even sure Ray really did it.

Do you actually believe that? Were any communist agents or party members in bed with segregationists? Who Where When?

Why were hundreds of thousands of dollars being laundered through Stanley Levison to CPUSA and to King? The equivalent to about 3/4 million dollars in today’s money?

Levison was King’s legal advisor, CEO, fundraiser, PR man, speech-writer, & ‘best white friend’ for ten years. And Levison hired more reds into King’s organization after Pres. Kennedy said “Stop with the Communist support,” in the Rose Garden when they called King in to warn him.

King agreed with JFK & RFK, but, he laughed, he lied; therefore, he was tailed indefinitely by the FBI. In addition to the communist imbeds in his group, some of King’s mistresses were being scrutinized, as well. And rightfully so. He was a highly compromised individual and subject to blackmail from multiple parties, both foreign & domestic. Although his wife obviously knew & didn’t care, his religious fan base certainly would.

Without the communist support, King could not have funded or run his civil rights business the way that it had succeeded, especially in the beginning. And that is just what has been officially revealed by IRS filings, not soft money or in-kind contributions.

Explain these IRS records to the contrary of your statement. Martin Luther King’s right hand man was a HUGE communist, if Pres. Kennedy had known the extent, I venture he would have shut King down, in spite of their friendship. Excerpt from Standpoint- June 2019.

... King’s IRS file... contained a previously unreported bombshell: Stanley Levison [CPUSA & King’s attorney -most influential advisor]... arranged for King to receive $10,000 —the equivalent of $87,000 in 2019 dollars ~snip~

The FBI’s failure to highlight Levison’s remarkable munificence towards his new friend is almost as startling as its failure to similarly emphasise to Kennedy how those gifts had taken place simultaneously with Levison’s ongoing contributions to the Communist Party.

Levison [had] substantial involvement in CPUSA fundraising, along with that of his twin brother Roy Bennett, ...“1957, [they] were to become inactive in CP financial operations”

....Levison and Bennett continued making personal contributions to the Communist Party until an explicit break in March, 1963, not until now have internal Bureau documents revealed the astonishing amounts involved: [ $76,500 -the equivalent of $650,000 today.]

Plus the soft money.

“Just think if we could have taped and followed Hoover.”

You’d have found nothing. I can’t believe the number of conservatives who have been taken in by the paleofake-news put out by the KGB.

Did you know that Hoover made a point of hiring Mormons, because they were so morally strict? The man was squeaky clean.

One day the soviets decided that it would help them win the Cold War if they exacerbated our racial problems.

Presto! MLK.

The KGB is defunct; you can stop carrying water for them.
