'An outrage against democracy': JFK's nephews urge Biden to reveal secret assassination records after president delayed their publication for year
DAILY MAIL ^ | 25 October 2021 | GEOFF EARLE

Posted on 10/29/2021 9:35:09 AM PDT by george76

The White House said Friday it would delay the release of long-classified documents related to the assassination of US President John F. Kennedy ..

Joe Biden cited the 'significant impact' of the COVID-19 pandemic as cause for the holdup..

Biden wrote in a statement that 'an interim release' of the remaining classified files 'shall be withheld from full public disclosure' until December 15..

A second batch of records will be released to the public in a 'more comprehensive release in late 2022,' .. .

In 2018, Donald Trump released 19,000 secret files on the assassination, but withheld 14,000 records on national security grounds through October 26..

...

slowed by the pandemic ..

John F. Kennedy's nephews are slamming the Biden administration's decision to withhold JFK assassination records that remain under seal until late 2022 – with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. calling it an 'outrage.'

The Biden White House released a memorandum on the records Friday night explaining the continuation of the delay, which followed a decision by former President Donald Trump to withhold thousands of records.

'It’s an outrage. It’s an outrage against American democracy. We’re not supposed to have secret governments within the government,' RFK, Jr.

'How the hell is it 58 years later, and what in the world could justify not releasing these documents?'

Former Rep. Patrick Kennedy, the son of longtime Biden friend late Sen. Ted Kennedy, also slammed the decision, although in softer terms.

'I think for the good of the country, everything has to be put out there so there’s greater understanding of our history,' he said.

Kennedy said it was a time of 'a lot of conspiracy theories' and noted there is 'a tendency to distrust government in general.'

Here’s some speculation: The records reveal some government foreknowledge or even complicity, and Biden doesn’t want that to come out while the January 6th “commission” is still in operation.

“Assassination was the result of a Cuban intelligence operation with the aid of the Soviet Union.”

So, was it Oswald(soviet agent) working alone or another shooter along with Oswald who did the money shot?

Most of those involved would be dead by now.

I was told it was some lone nut? Why such secrecy 60 years later?

The methods used to collect information, the assumptions used to base investigations, the individuals watched and spied on, the contacts with organized crime, the ancillary information collected and ignored or acted upon, and any other shockaroos that might shake us all to our roots.

If it was really all that bad I believe they would simply discover another fire in the National Archives.

To my mind, these are irrelevant details.

The issue at the time was “do we start a nuclear war based on this attack?”

Because those who were complicit are still alive?

More likely they do not want the names of the assassins, and of course that LHO had nothing to do with the assassination. It was simply the same Klan that took out Trump, installed Johnson, Obama, Biden, Nixon et al. The election system in the US is what we thought of as the Soviet system growing up. It is managed, lower level officials are chosen, or used to be chosen by elections. Higher level offices are appointments by media/intelligence/military industrial complex and now big tech.

Yep, Oswald shot him from the front from behind.

"Most of those involved would be dead by now."

Yep, even if someone was only 25 in 1963, they'd be 83 by now, and anyone likely to be in a leadership position at that time would be over 100 years old, if still alive.

Apparantly someone important and relevant to what happened is still alive, and it would affect them badly.

Hillary was spotted on the grassy knoll.

“Ain’t no way that’s coming out kiddies. Too many Beltway people and agencies were involved.”

The longer it gets delayed, the more I lean to that conclusion.

There must be something in there that makes the Rat party look really bad. Why else would release be postponed until after the midterms?

I used to believe in all kinds of JFK conspiracy theories until I realized the only conspiracy existed solely and entirely in the mind of one troubled and angry loner named Lee Harvey Oswald.

There’s the old saying “When any two people know anything in
Washington it’s a conspiracy’’.

In order for there to have been a second gunman you would have had to have had someone kill the guy who killed Kennedy.

Then you’d have to have a guy to kill the guy who killed Kennedy and on and on it would go and you’d be piling up bodies to the Moon.

More over, in his short pathetic life Oswald did one thing successfully , he became a United States Marine.

In order to earn that Globe And Anchor you have to qualify as a marksman or you don’t become a Marine.

On November 22, 1963 Lee Harvey Oswald shot and killed President John F. Kennedy, wounded the governor of Texas John Connally and shot and killed Dallas police officer J. D. Tippit.

End of story.

Have a saying that “the House Mother always wins,”, in any fraternity argument. All she has to do is nothing, because at some point, whoever has enough righteous indignation to argue against her whatever, is at some point going to graduate or leave school, and the House Mother hasn’t shifted an inch.

Deep State functions the same way. It takes a lot of effort, and any righteous warriors get old and die; there are too many DS entrenched.

Was hopeful that Trump would have dumped everything, didn’t happen.
