a new book from a british professor actually suggested there was a plan in place to make adolf hitlerld me about this this morning. i was, like, okay, this could be very interesting. tell me more. of course, zain you would be one to find an obscure story like this. >> keira, the plan was to take away his mustache. that was the strategy from a british plot that they cooked up. the idea was essentially and seriously to lace his food with estrogen, a female sex hormone. if they did that, it would make him less aggression. it was also tasteless. he was feared he would be poisoned. they figured nobody would figure out anything was laced in the food. the scientists basically came across this plan when with looking at documents that were recently declassified as to what the potential strategies beyond mill are teitary could be beyon. >> there was some other plots they had as well, right? >> yeah. i did dig deep into this. one of the things was to actually pour glue down, to rain glue down, onto nazi troops to make them stick. that was honestly one. another was to drop poisonous snakes on the

it was the same man who supposedly had the letters of adolf hitler, original letters from hitler thaturned out to be a fraud. so we have to question then, you know, the reality of that letter, the authenticity of that letter because it stimulates this whole discussion about the so-called infidelities. the other concern about the homosexuality comes from a man named malcolm jarvis that who was fingered by malcolm as part of his burglary crew and went to prison. so you understand here's a man who may have had some grievance about, you know, being fingered in that particular ordeal. so, again, you know, all of the things we see we have to go back to the sources, go back to the sources of these concerns in terms of infidelities and homosexual allegations. take it back to the sources and find out, like, can they stand scrutiny? are those worthy and authentic documents? >> i'm going to let you respond the that quickly, but we're going to take questions so if you have questions, please, move forward. >> very quickly. you know, when manning was, as i said, when he did this chronology and pull

. >> guest: there are more nuanced descriptions of konrad stalin, of adolf hitler than there are of joe mccarthy. one of my friends who is living in japan when treason came out that he knew a lot of publishers and one of his friends was a publisher who published lots of history books including books on mccarthy. he read treason which was published in japanese and said this version of mccarthy is exactly the opposite of everything i always read but i believe this one because it has facts. i wrote what you just read before he could have read my book and said that but that is what is striking about the descriptions of mccarthy. always in high school textbooks. they say he was a liar and not just a regular liar but a big liar. every epithet under the book without any actual facts. the actual facts are quite striking and what you will find out if he was exposing the democratic party for collaborating with a regime as evil as the nazis and was devastating to the democratic party said they had to fight back. they had to smash him and that is what they have spent half a century doing. >> host:
