This is truly an amazing piece of history. Nelson Rockefeller wouldn't take no for an answer. In addition, Rockefeller tried to bond with Johnson by sharing their miseries with a certain unnamed Senator from New York (Bobby Kennedy). Fascinating.
The Transit strike of 1966 started New Years Day and lasted for 12 days. NYC had a new Mayor that was sworn in on Jan 1st (John Lindsay) and dealing with the head of the Transit Workers Union "Red" Mike Quill who was a tough old bastard. Quill was jailed for the strike and 3 days later had a heart attack that killed him by the end of January. It was a real 3 ring circus.
Hard to believe but the Johnsons had more money by then did Nelson. The Rockefeller family was growing and the riches were being spread out. Of course Jr was the best at philanthropy. Jr being Nelson's father
They didn't mention what the actual problem was?
It was the New York transit strike of early January 1966.
From the war before...
Who's ruling who here
LBJ was a master.
His voice isn't
Boywas trying to be head of intelligence..saying he can maybe.he wrote rules all the time.
Attica. I had a friend who was an inmate at Attica during the riots. He turned his life around and turned out to be a pretty good guy. He's deceased now.
Nelson was governor at the time. A filthy rich man as usual. Why are 98% of politicians millionaires? Bad category to choose from, though The Electoral College makes certain our choices are limited or non-existant.
Totally staged phone call.We know who controls who.
