The Petty Creep who led the FBI | The Dark History of J. Edgar Hoover

_______

Hi friends, happy Thursday!

Welcome to the Dark History podcast. There’s always all this talk about who REALLY has the power in America. So I did a little digging, and discovered a not-so-great guy named J. Edgar Hoover–made famous for his 48-year racist reign over the FBI. And just as we thought, the guys pulling the strings ARE, in fact, also confiscating our nudes! Go figure. Between all the spying, lying, and legal murder of a beloved civil rights leader, J. Edgar Hoover would change America’s relationship to our governing powers–forever.

I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more Dark History.

Want some cool Bailey Merch?

Cydnee Black often times mentions J Edgar Hoover in her Makeup & History. So to see Bailey cover Hoover’s life is amazing! Thank you so much for researching him, Bailey! He’s behind a lot of historical tragic events.

In this dark, sad, and lonely world, your light brings me some solace on the harder days, thank you Bailey. 💗

[lyndseyknight]

Literally rolled my eyes while opening the YouTube app thinking I'm sick of listening to the same s*** on here, spotted Bailey instantly at the top of the list and almost died of relief, my frigging saviour, I needed this so much, now I can I go to sleep in a state of contentful bliss😂🖤

[kimmiperkins]

What?! Rainy day at home diving into FBI gossip?! Pour that tea Bailey- I'm tucking in!

[TenderheartTreasuresKy]

You look STUNNING in this episode!!!! Love you Bailey!!!

After many Decades, Hoover was bought out by Maytag. They closed the Hoover Company. My Grandfather was an engineer for Hoover, my Uncle was a graphic designer for Hoover. It was a cool place to visit. The Main Hoover Company was in North Canton, Ohio.

Hoover sounds like he wrote the playbook on extortion, abuse of power, and sadly a closeted homosexual that took his frustrations out on everyone else. Almost doesn’t sound like a natural death with the timing of things either. Thanks Bailey for another enlightening and intriguing topic.

[kelliwest]

Wow - this video could literally be about politics today. We obviously have not learned from our mistakes!

[Shaymundell-niqr]

Does the MOST RANDOM firing on a random tuesday for random reasons and then claims "women are unpredictable" 😭😭😭😭
