Watch: RFK Jr. Tells Tucker Carlson Who Held Trump Back, 'Begged' Him Not to Release JFK Files - 'I Was Astonished'
Western Journal ^ | August 27, 2024 | Samantha Chang

Posted on 08/28/2024 1:46:41 PM PDT by george76

In his first interview since dropping out of the presidential race and endorsing former President Donald Trump, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. dropped a bombshell about the 1963 assassination of his uncle, President John F. Kennedy.

...

RFK Jr. told Carlson that Mike Pompeo — Trump’s former CIA director — had “begged” the 45th president not to declassify the CIA files concerning the assassination of his uncle.

Pompeo later went on to become Trump’s secretary of state.

According to Kennedy, this cover-up was ostensibly done to hide the agency’s involvement in the JFK murder plot.

...

And I think everyone at this point knows the truth, which is the CIA is implicated in that. Those documents protect CIA, maybe, among others.”

...

RFK Jr: “More than 60 years after my uncle’s death … none of the people who were implicated in that crime are alive now. ... it clearly is to protect the [CIA]. And that’s wrong.”

...

Carlson remarked: “It’s just interesting … that a bipartisan list of presidents these six decades have kept those files classified.”

RFK Jr: “I was astonished that Trump didn’t declassify them because he promised to during the [2016] campaign.”

Carlson interjected: “That was Mike Pompeo who did that.”

Kennedy: “Yeah. I talked to President Trump for the first time about that this week. He said that Mike Pompeo begged him to. … He said that Mike Pompeo called him and said, ‘This would be a catastrophe to release these. You need to not do it.'”

Carlson: “I want to say again that I think that Mike Pompeo is a criminal. So that’s my view. He’s threatened to sue me for saying that. But I hope he will, because it’s true.”

“Pompeo - Deep State through and through.”

Yet they invited him to speak at the RNC convention. Ain’t nothing going to change.

Intense stress and fear creates mistakes in decision making, Trump knows this and is willing to play all the cards now. imho Trump is finally all in after the attempt on his life, he is ready to open the barn doors on everything.

I’m astonished that DJT is revisiting this,


It opens the door for going after the coverup of his assassination attempt.

The critical point in this interview is that it confirms that the CIA is a government funded domestic terrorist organization. How else have they been able to keep a lid on their dastardly deeds for decades? The most serious one that’s bringing this country to its knees is how they have co-opted the MSM into their own anti-America propaganda machine. Taking on the Agency before they destroy this country would be a treacherous undertaking but vital to America’s future.

If the Kennedy assassination(s) were driven by the Deep State, we need to know this. The American people deserve to know the truth about it. It’s been 60 years...the cat can be let let out of the bag.

I don’t see how records still exist. If they prove what everyone already knows to be the truth, I’m amazed they were ever created and I’m amazed they still exist.

Creating a presidential commission to release the JFK assassination files would make it more likely that the files would not be released in their entirety. The members of such a body can be intimidated and coerced into doing the bidding of the parties who don’t want the files released. We don’t need any more delays, excuses or coverups. Just release the documents and let the chips fall where they may.

If the Director of the CIA drags his/her feet replace them with someone who will serve the interests of truth and transparency.

I cheered Mike Pompeo when he told the assembled
Governors of the 50 United States that he had acquired
China’s list of “China friendly and cooperative US State Governors”.

Then what did he do with it?

Crickets...

Did he bring it up later when that secret Chinese bio-lab was accidentally
discovered in California? Did he demand that other State Governors on that
list check [their] States?

More Crickets...

Pls see my #32.

If Trump is “all in” why bother with asking some sort of commission/blue ribbon task force to release the files? Commissions and such exist to cover up things and protect people, not reveal truths. We don’t need another Warren Commission.

If the records had existed, Hoover would have destroyed them by 1972. If they truly covered it up, we'll never find out.

If the withheld documents implicate the the CIA in the assassination of JFK, then every head (Including current) of the CIA is complicit in the cover up of the assassination.

Bush, anyone?

“I don’t see how records still exist.”

The Devil is in the details. “JFK Files” could encompass a lot of data, some of which might still compromise Sources and Methods.

Details about Enigma/Ultra from WWII were kept classified for almost 30 years for similar reasons.
