George and Félix: "the tale of two old friends"
In 1970, Bush stood as a Senate candidate. He failed to get elected. That same year, Félix Rodríguez joined Air America, another CIA front company, trafficking heroin from Laos to the U.S. drugs network of former Havana godfather Santos Traficante. The purpose of the smuggling was to influence the Laotian conflict by winning the support of isolated communities. The operation was led by Donald Gregg, who took his orders from Theodore Shackley. It was on this job that George’s buddy learnt the trade he was to practice years later in Central America.
