The "RFK" Wiretap: Why Was LBJ Obsessed with Spying on Bobby Kennedy?

The most vicious war of the 1960s wasn't fought in Vietnam. It was fought in the shadows of the White House, between the President of the United States and his own Attorney General.
In this deep-dive documentary, we open the "Official and Confidential" files of J. Edgar Hoover to reveal how Lyndon B. Johnson weaponized the FBI to destroy his greatest political rival: Robert F. Kennedy. We investigate the obsession that drove the President to bug RFK’s hotel rooms, monitor his grief, and infiltrate the 1964 Democratic Convention with agents posing as journalists.
Did the surveillance state created to destroy a Kennedy ultimately pave the way for Watergate and the destruction of the presidency itself?
