What the government is still hiding about the JFK assassination

The National Archives, for the first time ever, released a list of documents related to the assassination that are still shielded from public view.

More than five decades after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, thousands of government files detailing the activities and testimony of shadowy spies, long-deceased witnesses and others with possible knowledge of the events remain shielded from public view.

The government gave a first-ever peek at what's still out there Thursday, as the National Archives released a list of the 3,063 documents that have been "fully withheld" since JFK's murder in Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963.

The documents listed - released in response to a Freedom of Information Act request from POLITICO, other news organizations and researchers - were collected by the Assassination Records Review Board, an independent panel created by the 1992 JFK Records Act.

Nobody talks much about the early Nov. 1963 planned attempt, in Chicago, or the mid Nov. 1963 planned attempt, in Tampa, on Kennedy either.

Ruby said he did it to save the honor of Dallas and save Jackie from having to come back for Oswald’s trial.

With Ruby having no history of liking the Kennedys, and long ties to the mob who were unhappy with the Kennedy administration’s heat on them.

Yes if he had lived he would have been another Jimmy Carter. He couldn’t get most of his agenda passed through his own Congress. And bungled the Bay of Pigs beyond terrible.

“No, Lon would have.....”

The event had already taken place before Lon was ordered to
do it. Oh he wanted to really really bad but he was under
strict orders.

The cigarette smoking man had someone set up Lee Harvey.

I saw it on TV. It must be true.

Arlen Specter came up the magic bullet theory. George Bush was with the CIA. Gerald Ford was on the Warren Commission. Sounds strange to me.

Here’s a theory. Kennedy was embarrassed by the Bay of Pigs and planning to shut down the (then new agency) CIA.

If only where were some document showing Oswald was CIA trained....

Oh, there is:

When they filmed "Ruby" in Dallas during 1991 I was working at the police HQ bldg and had occasion to walk into the garage while the actors were taking a break from filming this scene. It felt like I had stepped into the year 1963 except that everything was in color.
