Anyone like mob documentaries, this is yet another one on Jimmy Hoffa.
Except this is w/Nixon's tapes mixed in, which confirms what Hoffa was saying, that the pardon was a BS deal to keep him out of the teamsters for life.
The teamsters literally got him the pardon to make the Hoffa supporters happy, BUT had Nixon put a condition he could never be involved again, to make the mafia happy, (Fitzsimmons was a much easier puppet to control) which in turn would get the teamsters to vote for Nixon.
Whether you believe the guy who wrote "I heard you paint houses....." is the actual killer or not, (I do), these tapes leave no doubt who ordered the hit and why.
