The President, Cocaine, and the CIA
|
|
A Matter of Irrelevance
|
|
|
|
by Chip Tatum
|
|
Codename: Pegasus
|
|
|
|
U.S. Federal Judge Henry Lee Adams, Jr. ruled on May 6, 1996,
|
|
that federal documents which reveal the involvement of top
|
|
government officials and the CIA in a drug manufacturing and
|
|
trafficking cartel are not relevant in the defense of a Florida
|
|
couple. Transcripts reveal that defense attorneys argued during
|
|
a CIPA (Classified Information Procedures Act) hearing held in
|
|
U.S. District Court in Tampa, Florida, that the defendants, D.G.
|
|
"Chip" Tatum and his wife Nancy Tatum, were targeted by the U.S.
|
|
Department of Justice, the Central Intelligence Agency, and the
|
|
White House in an attempt to discredit and quiet the couple
|
|
concerning Mr. Tatum's knowledge and direct involvement with
|
|
William J. Clinton, George Bush, Manuel Noriega, Oliver North,
|
|
William Barr and others involved in cocaine manufacturing and
|
|
trafficking between Honduras, Panama and Arkansas from 1983 to
|
|
1988.
|
|
|
|
Transcripts additionally reveal Tampa attorney Dan Daly's vain
|
|
attempt to impress on Federal Judge Henry Lee Adams and U.S.
|
|
Prosecutors, the threat to our national security that these
|
|
heinous acts by top government officials represent. Mr. Daly
|
|
stated, "Without exception, Mr. Tatum is probably the only man
|
|
still alive that can tie these men (Clinton, Bush, Barr, et al.)
|
|
to their criminal acts. There is no doubt, your honor, if you
|
|
look at the facts, that this case is not about fraud. The United
|
|
States suffered no loss at the hands of Mr. and Mrs. Tatum. It's
|
|
about government corruption at the very top levels of our justice
|
|
system."
|
|
|
|
Neither did the fact that William Luschinger of Virginia, a CIA
|
|
operative and friend of Oliver North, was the government's prime
|
|
witness against the Tatums, nor the fact that any offer by the
|
|
defense to produce CIA employees and deep cover operatives to
|
|
testify as to their knowledge of the obvious obstruction of
|
|
justice being perpetrated against the Tatums, cause Judge Adams
|
|
to sway in his decision. "I'm going to disallow any testimony or
|
|
evidence concerning this governments' involvement, specifically
|
|
involvement of William Clinton, George Bush, or the CIA, in drug
|
|
trafficking. It is not relevant. If there is nothing else,
|
|
let's go and choose the jury," Judge Adams stated as he dismissed
|
|
the group from his chambers where the hearing was held *in
|
|
camera* [in chambers] (outside of the public's eye).
|
|
|
|
Evidence offered by the defendants' included a taped conversation
|
|
between a retired Mossad agent who was in the employ of General
|
|
Manuel Noriega and Governor Clinton's Chief of Security. This
|
|
taped conversation outlined the CIA's Honduran manufacturing
|
|
facilities, capabilities, and who was involved to include
|
|
specific duties in the cartel. The tape has been transcribed and
|
|
included in an evidence package entitled "The Tatum Chronicles."
|
|
The Chronicles contain not only the transcribed audio tape, but
|
|
also the transcription of events recorded by a camera mounted on
|
|
a U.S. military aircraft delivering coolers marked "medical
|
|
supplies" to Little Rock Airport. This video shows then-Governor
|
|
Clinton receiving one of the two coolers. The actual contents of
|
|
the cooler, as recorded earlier in the video tape, was three
|
|
kilos of cocaine and a large amount of cash.
|
|
|
|
Perhaps the most frightening part of this government cover-up is
|
|
the response of top politicians at both the state and federal
|
|
level. Governor Lawton Chiles, after reviewing an evidence
|
|
package from the Tatums, both Florida residents, stated, "These
|
|
are not matters under my jurisdiction or influence." (However,
|
|
in 1986 then-Senator Lawton Chiles was given this same
|
|
information and, at that time, he stated it was a military matter
|
|
and beyond his scope.)
|
|
|
|
[Tatum lists top government officials and others who he says
|
|
basically did nothing after receiving the evidence package.
|
|
Among those named by Tatum are:
|
|
|
|
Janet Reno
|
|
Harry Browne
|
|
Ross Perot
|
|
Jack Kemp
|
|
Rep. Wm. F. Clinger, Jr.
|
|
Senator Sam Nunn
|
|
Senator Connie Mack
|
|
Senator Charles S. Robb
|
|
Senator John Glenn
|
|
Senator Thomas Daschle
|
|
Senator Barbara Boxer
|
|
Kenneth Starr]
|
|
|
|
|
|
To federal judges and top government officials, the trafficking
|
|
of cocaine to our children... *is* *a* *matter* *of*
|
|
*irrelevance*. Can America stand for this? If so, then I've
|
|
been beaten, tortured and shot in defense of this country for
|
|
absolutely nothing. Please take up arms in the form of your
|
|
telephone and demand action against these heinous crimes and
|
|
cover-ups.
