Investigative Journalist Annie Jacobsen: War, Weaponry, and Government Secrecy - Danger Close

[@taxfree4]

Annie is a triple threat - beautiful, brilliant and with a voice that makes me want to go to confession after I hear her talk.

[@vnvet2282]

"... a voice that makes me want to go to confession" had me laughing. Great comment.

[@dylanthomas12321]

Makes me want to look up her college pictures.

It's a scary scenario to know the people of government who design, manage, and deploy weapons of annihilation have bunkers of survival against their effects. And the sacrificial lambs are the people whom they profess to serve.

Wow, what an insightful interview. Annie, I don't think it's that the American public doesn't care, I think we are numb, uninformed, and deluded by media and entertainment. Thank you for this. Just wow.

[@russphoto]

And very very lazy, or they would do the research themselves........... it's out there.

[@marcgottlieb9579]

Ask the all knowing Annie about our binary solar system...The one that will kill 90 percent of all Americans before the end of 2024...It appears the eletes of this world forgot to tell the public and they could not be happier with how things are going to turn out !

[@JRey-re9rl]

There is a large segment that has bought into corporatism, militarism, imperialism, fascism, and bloodlust. America is morally bankrupt and satanic.

[@Harry1s]

There are 2 problems with her concerns...1 - we can't have open and fair debates about weapons, war, etc because we are controlled and censored by the elites. 2 - those elites could care less about how many die if they are achieving certain goals. I admire her knowledge, experiences, and opinions.

[@patrickgreen2361]

You are 1000% correct

[@sherrythomas8149]

The "elites" control so many things by compartmentalizing the work they need done. There are people who might hear these things & be able to figure out that the work they think they're doing for the good of mankind or even just for a paycheck, is actually being used for evil. And of course there's the whole history repeating itself thing. So while I do agree with you, there's so much value in discussing, reading, writing, & teaching this type of information. I can't imagine where we'd be if people didn't keep fighting, building, having babies, etc through plagues, wars, & more. We are here because enough people did not lose hope. We need to live as though there's a future worth fighting for.

[@martin1234512345]

She seems to think everyone has the access to the people she has access to. For how smart she is, she wreaks of naivety.

[@davedave2941]

War is profitable business as are IDIQ contracts for military, DOD, Maritime, and National Security

[@ch1m1ch0nga]

I agree - the MAGA dove elites are too dumb to understand that THEY are marching us to a two-front war b/c their panties are all soiled because of their illogical fear of Putin and Xi. We need a true Republican, S-10 or better SOLDIER as President. Not grifter candidates who sell generations of soldiers out every time they open their mouths...

My old roommate from Palm Spring CA was John von Neumann's Lear jet pilot. I was able to fly in his new Lear 36 when it was delivered. Got to drive a few of his toys he had in storage there. I was lucky to have met him. At the time all I knew was he brought the VW to the US. I hung out at his house and visited with his house boy & body guard who was from India. (Nitton) He was Marlo Thomas's house boy and body guard. He'd give me great wines & black caviar. Still have a few pictures of him after all these years. I'm a Vietnam combat vet 68-69 who had lymphoma from agent orange in 2014. Still here after 10 years. Have had a good life. Thanks for all of your hard work. Will start buying some of your books.

[@chrislivingston9420]

Two of my favorite authors talking for two hours… yes please!!! Incredible conversation! Thanks you Mr. Carr for having this and then for posting it.

[@bsmithhammer]

Agreed - I didn't see this one coming, but as soon as I saw it in my feed, it made perfect sense. Great discussion. I really enjoyed "Surprise, Kill, Vanish" and want to read more of Jacobsen's work. And Jack, if you're reading this - you really need to get Ben Macintyre on your show. You two would have a TON to talk about.

[@grannygear1001]

Perhaps she might do a book on the 3 Maui fires. Something is weird about what really happened and that police chief that moved there from Las Vegas.

[@dougstyles]

Weird how that just was swept under the rug. Actually it's not weird,its how the government treats us like trash.

My roommate from the 1970's pushed the button on the Eniwetok Atoll bomb. He said they had no idea what was going to happen? He was a naval physicist and in on the U-2. Nice fellow with a lot of stories. He worked with Oppenheimer and was one heck of a pilot.

The epic interview between these two bestselling authors was an intellectual feast, where their unique perspectives and writing styles beautifully complemented each other. It was captivating to witness the dynamic exchange of ideas, and their mutual respect and admiration for each other's work were evident throughout the conversation.

Ms Jacobsen could read the phone book and make it interesting! Kudos also to sound engineers who produce 2-3-4 hour programs like this and JRE that are totally listenable with every syllable clear & understandable. My aging ears often struggle to make sense of conversations, sometimes turning things up a bit helps, but then I have to sit with my thumb on the MUTE button to stop the blasting noise / music / compressed sound effects that come crashing in, also a result of sound engineers. Maybe their young ears work differently? Rush Limbaugh made sense on so many things, none more so than how hearing loss & sound quality can affect communication and ones overall perception of those around them.

[@ryincatcher7872]

I read one of her books and it was like watching a history channel documentary. I learned no more than I already new. Yes it was paperclip

[@letthetunesflow]

She uncovered many never seen documents which really added to the old stories. She did a fantastic job of using her newly discovered documents to help bring more clarity to the stories, and answered questions that remained unanswered within the massive intertwined stories of operation paperclip. So yes the basic operation paperclip story has been known for a while, but Annie certainly did a fantastic job of bringing everything into context, and writing a fantastic cohesive story.

[@dagothhyde7297]

Comparing her to history channel is pretty apt. They make garbage documentaries.

What is a "Nazi scientist"? They have been scientists before the 12 years and afterwards. You are a scientist or not no matter where you live or under which regime or state order you do your scientific work and german scientists in the 18th and 20th century have been outstanding and the education system was one of the best in the world. That's why so many modern inventions have german roots.

[@tedshapiro2496]

I met a guy who served in Vietnam, who told that he was a crew member for a nuclear missile there. He didn't like it because it was a short range missile and he was afraid that when it went off at that distance it would kill him. During the cold war in Germany American officers with the rank of captain were authorized to use tactical nuclear weapons without taking the decision it up the chain of command. For decades nuclear weapons lacked safety devices and were subject to unauthorized, or accidental, launch or detonation. Even after they began to install safety devices there were still close calls. One time a nuclear bomb accidentally fell out of a plane over South Carolina, and two of the three trigger locks tripped. Come to think of it, I believe it was a hydrogen bomb, something that would make the atom bombs dropped on Japan look small. Good thing that third trigger lock didn't trip or there would only be 49 states now. Unless of course, the military brass thought it had been the Russians who hit South Carolina -- in that case there might not be any.

I started reading her books after her Joe Rogan interview about the real story of Roswell. I'm surprised you didn't ask her about that. The info about drones is not complete. Remote controlled drones have been around for almost 100 years. The English actor Reginald Denny started up a company called Radioplane after WW1 that made remotely piloted drones. He got a big contract in 1939 for these drones. They were chiefly used for target practice. Ronald Reagan on a War Bonds tour through the Radioplane factory discovered Norma Jean Dougherty aka Marilyn Monroe working there. The epilogue of her Area 51 book talks about the Roswell incident as a deep penetration by Stalin near the 509th Bomb Group with something to stir the nation 9 years after Orson Welles' War of the Worlds broadcast. I think the cover up was more to do with Stalin penetrating US Airspace than aliens.

[@barbaraguillette9632]

I was going to court to stop the targeting program and was hit with lasers wherever I went, (Guillette vs HUD, Eastman Gelatin and Mayor Torigian of Peabody, Ma.) was hit in my bedroom through the window and the laser left a divot in the bone , over the right eye and hurt for years, Left a red mark for a while and still have a slight divot to this day.
