I've been on to this story since at least 2016. And it fits the wider pattern. All US Presidents since Truman if not before have deep US Intelligence connections, often including family ties.
A retired Intelligence friend of mine likes to say Putin "is KGB." That's oversimplification, Putin is also arguably anti-KGB and certainly anti-Communist. But the same phenomenon is illustrated, much better I think, by US Presidents. And all the better, for maintaining the control from Intelligence, that there be a revolving door of them, rather than a singular personality who can become independent (and at least potentially serve the entire nation, instead of merely the elite).
The Bush Family is the best illustration. George HW Bush was certainly CIA director in the late 1970's, but many accounts place him central to attempts to assassinate Castro as well, as proprietor of the CIA-front "Zapata Oil Company" which was a short distance from Cuba and used as a platform for launching attacks against Cuba, and from there to the successful assassination of the becoming-rogue President Kennedy who failed to back his operation up with the USAF. GHW Bush's father had worked for the same law firm as Allen Dulles, which notoriously arranged banking for the Nazi's (that was Prescott Bush's personal job). If you were looking for anti-Communist US elites who would do anything, anything to destroy the Soviet Union, you'd come straight to the Bush Family. Except they were already there, right at the center of Intelligence, already.
Out of that, the Bush Family got 5 US Presidencies, 2 with puppet Reagan as front man, one for himself (and curiously when the "collapse" of the Soviet Union occurred), and two for his son GWB. So far.
Trump came from the contracting dark side of the company, being personally tutored by Roy Cohn--himself not so much ever a professional employee of the firm but instead a top asset, devoted to trashing enemies of the state.
Obama's Mother's life reads like that of a very enterprising asset, if not agent. And his official father too. And there's more. I've seen much of this before, but never with so many good pictures.
