Status Updates From Man Who Killed Kennedy: The...

“LBJ had led the opposition in the Congress to every civil rights bill from 1937-1957.”

Machiavelli would blush.

“Johnson’s ultimate embrace of civil rights is a classic example of a man doing the right thing for the wrong reasons. … Johnson’s embrace of civil rights… was a crude political calculation.”

“What Johnson would tell his cronies was simple: ‘I’ll have them n****** voting Democratic for two hundred years.”

“At this late date, it's hard for me to believe that anyone with intelligence or objectivity can continue to believe the Warren Commission's ludicrous claim that President Kennedy was assassinated by a lone gunman named Lee Harvey Oswald, and that no conspiracy existed. We now know that Oswald was a US intelligence asset who had worked for both the CIA and FBI and that both agencies lied to the Warren Commission.

“Blaming (the USS Liberty) on Egypt would have given the US cover to attack, bomb, and remove Egypt’s Gamal Abdel Nasser, who had drifted into the Soviet over the preceding decade.”

“In order to win back the trust of the people, it is the government’s responsibility to come clean.”

But they will never come clean. If the federal government were to come out tomorrow saying “LBJ, the mob, the CIA, the FBI were all heavily involved on 11/22/1963”, it removes any sort of legitimacy the government has had from 11/22 onwards. If this is true, we have all been duped.

“Anyone who asks probing questions, no matter how sound, are dismissed as crackpots
It is no wonder Caro chose not to interview important people in Johnson's life, who held convictions and information connecting him to the assassination. Caro was certainly correct in this if his goals were respect and profit he has earned both from the literary community. But in terms of spine and veracity, Caro fails.”

“In fact, acknowledging the JFK assassination for what it was—a coup d'état-is discrediting to the narrative of the United States as a beacon of democracy, freedom, and justice, as well as a place that is morally superior to banana republics and third-world dictatorships. Establishment conservatives, just like the liberals, choke on that bone in unison.”

Although Johnson avoided punishment for his actions, the presidency would be his penance. His power which he had long sought, was an illusion. Johnson was now accountable to those groups that had helped him capture the office. The war in Vietnam did not belong to Johnson it belonged to the CIA and Texas businessmen.
And Johnson was a figurehead. Although he profited greatly from Vietnam, it tore his spirit to pieces

“All of the groups involved benefited tremendously from the assassination. Johnson avoided political exile and incarceration; the CIA had their war in Vietnam; Big Oil had a politician in office to legislate in their favor; and the mob had someone to call off the dogs.
Indeed, J. Edgar Hoover had his mandatory retirement waived by Johnson and was declared director of the FBI for life.”

Wait wait, LBJ was the one who waived the retirement age requirement for Hoover???

“The convoluted Warren Commission had been called a failure for the ages, but in truth, it couldn't have been more of a success. The bending of facts, disposal of evidence, and disregard of the truth had distorted the reality of the assassination, allowing the true culprits of the crime not to slip away but to stay precisely where they were, in the highest reaches of government.”

“In truth, it was not the incompetence but the corruption of the Dallas police force that led to Oswald’s slaying.”

Excellent

If true, very compelling

Holy. Shit.

So many highlights, not enough time.

LBJ was a piece of work to put it mildly. At least RS paints him so. Racist, womanizing, crude. All the qualities of a cold hearted killer.

Very straightforward with the facts and motivations of the players involved. What a crook Johnson was! Marcelo, Traficante , Hoover, the oil-Men….the Kennedy pissed everyone off. By Nov ‘63 LBJ political career was weeks from being “done” if JFK hadn’t been put aside.
