Sanford Griffith, The King of Fake News
มุมมอง 4302 หลายเดือนก่อน
Using his own photo album, FBI files and over a year of research, I’ve compiled this documentary to help shed light on one very shady man. Sanford “Sandy” Griffith was the best kind of spy, the kind you’ve never heard of. He was a pioneering US Army interrogator, a scam artist, and so much more.

This Is Nice Video! and i understand how terrifying war is....
This is super dope glad to see someone covering letters. Keep up the great work m8!
ignore the revisionist garbage you hear today. The Smithsonian and many other museums have thousands of letters like these on file. Letters from soldiers to their families; from families to their sons and brothers. This is the most accurate accounting you will ever find of what the Civil war was like and just as important what it was about and its NOT what the Establishment Education system wants you to believe. Its more more complicated then the lies that it was all about slavery and nothing else.
Honestly, I'm surprised some enterprising individuals didn't try to sell seats to watch the battle. I mean what could go wrong?
If Bull Run happened today, it would probably be broadcast on Netflix. They'd make a killing.
Double quick, for when quick just wont do. lol
Beware of rebel farm animals around ever corner.
Never know when a horse might be a Confederate in disguise.
They probably should of anticipated an establishment flying that flag wouldn't have a sane reaction to its removal.
He really knew how to operate to be able to beat a federal investigation.
