I have seen this documentary and I have read about how Marilyn Monroe died, and there are reasons why people question if she did take her own life. There was a police officer Lynn Franklin who pulled over Peter Lawford speeding on a road from her home just hours after she had died with Ralph Greenson and Robert Kennedy in the car. I don't believe a police officer would make something like that up. So was Peter Lawford being used either by the Mafia or the CIA?
Later in 1972 a hired contractor discovered a covert listening device installed throughout the home in Brentwood when Veronica Hamel and her then husband the new owners had paid over $100,000 to remove. Then there's the article that Dorothy Kilgallen had authored suggesting Marilyn Monroe had an affair with Robert Kennedy just a day before she died. So was this article the reason for Peter Lawford to be at her home that afternoon on 4 August 1962?
Then there's Eunice Murray and her son-in-law Norman Jeffries at her home that night where she died. So was Eunice Murray waiting for a phone call from Peter Lawford that they were going to return, and did he call two times that night?
If she had accidentally overdosed on the amount Ralph Greenson had asked Eunice Murray to give her. Then Peter Lawford was still accountable, because he was wanting Ralph Greenson and Robert Kennedy to be there. "Say goodbye to Pat, say goodbye to the president, and say goodbye to yourself, because you're a nice guy. ... I'll see, I'll see." - Marilyn Monroe.

Following Madonna's performance from Tears of a Clown she decided to perform in more smaller venues. Madonna used the name Madame X for her studio album and tour, and her performances in these venues was more professional, and the audience behavior was not so loud considering this show, unlike her previous world tour, was not going to be performed in large indoor arenas. Initially, there was a pre-recorded announcement from Madonna that the audience are to concentrate more on the show than their mobile phones, so the musicians would be aware of being appreciated. And then the show starts with "God Control" that delivers the message that the United States needs to have better gun laws, but if there was a better understanding about respecting other people then maybe the crime of murdering innocent people could be prevented. "Dark Ballet" is a return to the song "Like a Prayer" with its message about racism and the intolerance towards people who are viewed as a minority, and then Madonna sings "Human Nature" a song about having no shame or sorrow for being who you are. Overall Madame X has more serious than lighthearted messages, and as this tour was concluding there was the outbreak of COVID-19, and her shows were canceled. Madame X was released on Paramount+, and was filmed in Lisbon, Portugal. A live album Madame X - Music from the Theater Experience was also released on vinyl.
The events after September 11 are strange. It was an odd thing to do for the US government to lead the nation, and then coalition forces into a war on the false assumption that there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein were terrible dictators, and did horrible atrocities against humanity, and I agree with removing people like that from power and then having them executed. However, the Iraq War could have ended in a shorter time after eight years of conflict, and then leaving. There were casualties and losses from the coalition forces 4821 people were killed and over 32,776 people were wounded.
