For their operations against Sukarno they produced a pornographic film with an actor in a latex Sukarno mask in an attempt to discredit him that nobody bought. They released Lucky Luciano from prison to set up a heroin trafficking operation to generate funds for Gladio. Etc. etc.
They had Cardinal Spellman produce anticommunist sermons to be delivered in Guatemalan churches to turn the people against Árbenz. They dosed Whitey Bulger with LSD while he was in prison. They proposed bombing US citizens in Operation Northwoods to justify anti-Castro action.
If you’re interested in the psychopaths who orchestrated the early years of this shit I highly recommend the book The Brothers: John Foster Dulles, Allen Dulles, and Their Secret World War by Stephen Kinzer.
They have all sorts of failed cultural interventions in Cuba, from the failed twitter clone to funding anti-communist hip hop artists from the Cuban diaspora that just didn’t pan out, but deep down I still reserve suspicion that Pitbull may be a CIA industry plant.
they hired a prominent toy designer to make a Bin Laden action figure that degrades in the heat to give it a devil face to be distributed to kids in Afghanistan
the operation was scrapped but not before some of the toys had been made
