Pat Tillman was more than an NFL star — he was a symbol of post-9/11 American sacrifice. When he walked away from millions to join the U.S. Army Rangers, the nation saw him as a hero. But when Tillman was killed in Afghanistan in 2004, the story Americans were told wasn’t true.

In this episode of American Scandal Report by Skoob, host OZ Dalton uncovers the disturbing truth behind Pat Tillman’s death — a friendly fire incident hidden behind false heroism, manipulated narratives, and a deliberate military cover-up. Senior commanders knew the truth early on, yet allowed a lie to reach the public, the media, and Tillman’s own family.

Through congressional testimony, military investigations, and firsthand accounts, this deep dive exposes how truth was buried, accountability was avoided, and a national symbol was used to serve a political narrative during wartime.

This isn’t just a story about Pat Tillman.

It’s about power, propaganda, and what happens when truth becomes inconvenient.

In September 1965, Hurricane Betsy slammed into Louisiana and changed New Orleans forever. What followed wasn’t just flooding — it was controversy, conspiracy, and a government response that exposed deep cracks in America’s disaster system.

In this episode of American Scandal Report, host Oz Dalton investigates the untold story of Hurricane Betsy: the levee failures that drowned the Lower Ninth Ward, the explosions residents swear they heard, and the historic mistrust rooted in decades of racial and political neglect. Long before Katrina, the warning signs were already there.

Was Betsy a natural disaster — or a man-made catastrophe shaped by flawed engineering, environmental destruction, and unequal protection? And why did survivors receive debt instead of relief?

This is the hurricane that rehearsed a national tragedy — and the lessons America failed to learn.

On June 5, 2013, the world learned a terrifying truth: the U.S. government was secretly collecting the digital lives of millions of Americans. Emails. Phone calls. Searches. Photos. All harvested through a classified NSA surveillance program called PRISM.

In this episode of American Scandal Report by Skoob, host OZ Dalton breaks down how Edward Snowden exposed the largest mass surveillance operation in history — and how Silicon Valley giants like Google, Apple, Facebook, Microsoft, and Verizon became silent partners in government spying.

We uncover how secret courts legalized warrantless surveillance, how the NSA gained direct access to private data, and why PRISM was never really shut down — only rebranded. More than a decade later, surveillance has expanded through AI, facial recognition, and data profiling, raising urgent questions about privacy, freedom, and who’s really watching.

This is the true story of PRISM, Edward Snowden, the NSA, and how America quietly became a surveillance state.

What happens when the FBI decides to fight political corruption by staging an elaborate con?

In the late 1970s, the Bureau launched ABSCAM, one of the most controversial undercover operations in American history. Using fake Arab sheiks, hidden cameras, briefcases full of cash, and a real-life con artist, the FBI exposed how easily power could be bought inside Congress.

In this episode of American Scandal Report by Skoob, host Oz Dalton takes you inside the operation that brought down a U.S. Senator, multiple members of Congress, and revealed a political system dangerously comfortable with bribery. From yacht parties in Florida to secret meetings in Washington, this is the unbelievable true story of how law enforcement crossed into full-scale theater — and whether justice or entrapment was really on display.

The Keating Five scandal is one of the most explosive political corruption stories in American history — a case where money talked, regulators were pressured, and five U.S. senators listened.

In this episode of American Scandal Report by Skoob, host OZ Dalton takes you inside the rise and collapse of Charles Keating, the savings-and-loan tycoon who used campaign donations and political influence to interfere with federal regulators — costing U.S. taxpayers billions of dollars and wiping out the life savings of thousands of elderly investors.

We break down how bank deregulation, Wall Street greed, and political interference collided during the 1980s savings and loan crisis, leading to criminal investigations, Senate ethics hearings, and lasting damage to public trust. From secret meetings on Capitol Hill to the media’s failure to act in time, this is a cautionary tale about how fragile oversight becomes when power and money intertwine.
