“I suppose it isn’t any worse than FDR sending them Joe Kennedy, although in that case the Ambassador didn’t matter because Roosevelt and Churchill communicated directly.”
Kennedy was a very vocal Hitler and Nazi supporter. Churchill sent a message to FDR that if he didn’t remove Kennedy Churchill would have him killed.

So, my question is...
Is there any evidence or suggestion that the threat was carried out?

Kennedy was also a coward, leaving London when the diplomatic corps was staying in town with the Royals and Churchill.
He wore out his welcome both with the Brits and State Department pretty fast.

Churchill sent a message to FDR that if he didn’t remove Kennedy Churchill would have him killed.My respect for Churchill ratchets up another increment.
