Ebony and Irony

An arrest was made a few hours ago, when Mrs. Rosalie Rosen, a 102 year old Alzheimer's victim, was removed from her home and placed into corrective care.  The intervention occurred after an anonymous call was received by the Boca Police department, last week, claiming to solve the decades old question of where Jimmy Hoffa was burried.  As was tipped off, the remains of the former union organizer were found in a variety of tupperware in Mrs. Rosen's freezer.  When asked how the contents had gotten there, Mrs. Rosen stared into space, her normal response to most questions.  In further interrogation, Mrs. Rosen seemed to be reliving a moment in her past as she called out repetatively the chant, "Ebony and ivory. Not ivory; it's irony" while gazing at a picture of the deceased former president, Barak Obama.

Desperate to solve the riddle, investigators began looking through a multitude of photo albums taken from the Rosen residence which included one filled with Obama memoribilia.  It was later reported that hidden on the insides of campaign buttons were letters which spelled out what turned out to be the then devastated automobile company, Chrysler.  The mystery deepend. 

Within a few hours the Matrix computer used by the FBI returned a file which included the names of several senators involved with Chicago politics from the 1940's through 2016, along with a list of Chrysler executives with alleged mob ties bringing a connection to light.  After several hours government contracts were retrieved broadening the web to include contracts for steel and bullet proof sheethings.  After a careful sorting dots were connected showing a link between Hoffa and the father of a former Chrysler chairman who was believed to be a mafia kingpin.  In review of several disgarded contracts it now appears that a mob affiliate had unsuccessfully attempted     to extort Hoffa demanding a kickback inexchange for autoworker enrollment in the then forming union.  Subsequent contracts showed the strength and relentlessness of the mob who eventually garnered an interest in the failing Chrysler Corp. first in the early 1990's and then again in the early 20th century when the Italian company, FIAT, took a controlling interest without any outside resistence on the merger.

But the story does not stop here.  Barak Obama became the first black president in history though his rising career was later the subject of scrutiny after it was revealed that his past Chicago party ties as a senator were intermixed with other so-called "owned" politicians. Given the purported financial crisis of 2009 in which the young President had to lead the country out of, initially no one noticed the reversal of campaign promises to forster sit down negotiations with foreign aggressive entities when foreign policy suddenly gave way to placing more troops on the frontline, armed with the lastest bullet proof vests.  Further investigation of military contracts linked the new vests purchase orders with Chrysler, who was awarded a TARP bail out contract becoming once again the offical white house vehicle.  It was no coincidence that the bullet proof vest's internal material component was the same used to frame cars believed to be needed to protect all political figures.

The last piece of the puzzle pulled the picture to completion when the wording of one contract specified a need for large bullet proof vehicles with full size trunks, "large enough to hold a special agent inside." A red flag had been raised since the CIA never uses a trunk to hold an agent since before Hoffa's time when one agent had suffocated in that manner; it became strictly forbidden.

Why it took nearly 100 years to solve these decade old mysteries, one might never know since the truth is oftentimes  taken to the grave.  Mrs. Rosen may never come around to reality to explain how the Hoffa remains ended up in her freezer, but one neighbor claimed to specifically recall how excited then Mr. and Mrs. Rosen became whenever it was lunchtime at the Democratic headquarters.
