An inside look at one of the 20th century’s most iconic and consequential moments

Che Guevara was executed in 1967 in a remote Bolivian village. One of the last people to speak to him alive was CIA officer Felix Rodriguez



Cuban revolutionary leader Che Guevara’s last photo, taken just minutes before his famous execution, will forever be remembered as one of the 20th century’s most iconic images.

Guevara, whom Bolivian special forces had just captured, is shown standing next to CIA operative Felix Rodriguez, who was minutes away from telling Guevara that he was soon to die.

Imagine what that conversation must have been like.

Felix Rodriguez joined today’s Tucker Carlson Encounter to chronicle his role in that history-altering moment and reveal the lessons he learned in a career of fighting communism.

Felix Rodriguez tells Tucker:

“A lot of people used to say in Cuba [that communism] could not happen here, [that] it could not happen in the United States… I am concerned about this country. I hope that we can regain the presidency because if this thing goes to socialism, it would be a disaster. We would never know the United States the way it is. I am concerned because I know what happened in Cuba.”
