Inextricably linked to the death of John F. Kennedy, surgeon Robert McClelland dutifully preserved the blood-soaked white dress shirt he wore the day he tried to save the president's life in 1963.

For the rest of his life, the retired professor emeritus of UT Southwestern's medical school also clung staunchly to a contentious opinion forged firsthand: that one of the shots that had struck Kennedy had come from the front, which would require the existence of a second gunman.

Of course, the doctor who actually treated the wounds wouldn’t know better than the rigged Warren Commission members where the wounds were... (sarc/)

There has to be something really bad in that JFK file. Even Trump won’t release it.

There is an image out there of John John actually sending Biden a handwritten letter, telling him that he (Biden) is a traitor.

John John died in ‘99.

I think the whistleblower complaint against Trump came from the grassy knoll if you get my drift

If you would read the article, you would see that he wasn’t “the doctor who actually treated the wounds.” He assisted other surgeons, who all concluded that there were no shots from the front.

Well, that just proves that they were all part of the conspiracy. Or something like that.

I don't know. But it's telling that a member of the Dem's first Royal FamilyTM called Biden a traitor.

We’ll never know the full truth. But one thing is sure. The magic bullet is impossible.

You think conspiracies never happen?

What do you call what’s been happening to Trump for three years?
