Who was LBJ Crony Billie Sol Estes?

In the world of politics, alliances can be crucial to success. And in the 1960s, few alliances were as powerful as that between President Lyndon B. Johnson and his crony, Billie Sol Estes. But who was Billie Sol Estes, and what did he do that made him such a key figure in Johnson's inner circle? Estes was a self-made millionaire who rose to prominence in the 1950s and 60s. He made his fortune in the cotton industry, but his success was marred by a series of scandals that would eventually bring him down. Estes was accused of numerous crimes, including fraud, bribery, and even murder.

Despite his checkered past, Estes remained close to President Johnson throughout his time in office. The two men had a long-standing relationship that went back to Johnson's days in the Senate. Johnson was known for his ability to cultivate relationships with powerful businessmen and politicians, and Estes was no exception.

Estes was a master of the political game, using his wealth and influence to curry favor with those in power. He was instrumental in helping Johnson win the presidency in 1960, and he continued to play a key role in Johnson's administration throughout the 1960s.
