We could watch it more closely.
It's kind of bullshit, right?
It doesn't really make sense.
But this is what he says.
Behind closed doors, I do know that things got really fiery, right?
CIA, HW was asking a lot of favors of Noriega, and Noriega is starting to sort of toy with them a little bit, being like, I'll do this, but you got to give me this.
You know, there's a lot of... Noriega was on CIA payroll for a very long time, but there's a lot of stories of him sort of getting these black bags filled with cash and...
having them delivered to his office.
And people say that he made millions upon millions from the CIA through backdoor dealings.
So there was definitely a lot of shady shit going on there.
At the time, or like a couple years later, you know the movie American Made?
Yeah, of course.
So that's starting to go on toward like the late 70s, like early 1980s.
Noriega is very much like a middleman.
No, I haven't seen it.
Oh, yeah.
And you know what's funny?
Obviously I'm โ I think it was in high school when they invaded.
yeah yeah 1989 was the invasion i know what about i graduated in 88 so yeah well okay yeah right before but um you know obviously like i like um i wasn't even alive when this stuff happened i that's why i call myself like a blank slate coming in these people yeah i didn't know any of this shit but the uh like the barry seal stuff and all those like cia drugs you know uh narco trafficking pilots do you feel that's accurate yeah
I was told that it's not fully accurate by guys in Panama.
