Renowned author James Perloff returns to Paratruther to unravel the enigmatic web surrounding the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln. With insights from his latest book, "Official Myths of the Lincoln Assassination," Perloff, joined by co-host Mr. Anderson and the legendary Don Jeffries, dives deep into the complexities and misconceptions of this historical event. Sparked by meticulous archival research from Otto Eisenschiml and modern analysis by Don Thomas, Perloff shows how their findings stand strong against mainstream historical attempts at debunking.
Our conversation scrutinizes the biases of today's historians and revisits Edwin Stanton's potential involvement in orchestrating Lincoln's assassination. By comparing Lincoln’s murder to other historical enigmas like the JFK assassination, we uncover layers of conspiracy theories involving secret societies and suspicious actions post-Lincoln's death. We also discuss controversial exhumations and how historical figures from John Wilkes Booth to Dr. Samuel Mudd continue to shape narratives today.
We further explore the far-reaching implications of Lincoln’s controversial financial decisions, including his issuance of greenbacks, and how these may have angered the banking elite of his time. Perloff and Jeffries provide a nuanced discussion around Lincoln's character and legacy, questioning the integrity of established narratives. Tune in to connect the historical dots and understand how these events influence our present and future, revealing a trajectory towards global consolidation.
