Once again Donald Trump is frazzling the custodians of civil discourse.......
But dismissing JFKs assassination as a trivial subject is one mistake that Donald Trump does not make. His gambit is an old story in American culture. With his intuitive media personality, Trump is drawn, moth-like, to an eternal flame of American culture: the JFK story.........
The issue facing the next presidentand those who will vote for him or her is not Who killed JFK? The issue in 2016 is Who will kill JFK secrecy?
The Law::::::Within a year of taking the oath of office President Trump (or President Clinton) will have to make some decisions about a huge trove ancient U.S. government records related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963. The issue will come to a head as October 25, 2017 approaches. That is the date that the 1992 JFK Records Act requires the government to release all of its records related to JFK assassination.................
The Loophole::::But the JFK Records has a loophole and the loophole is what makes the political issue of 2016. The CIA (and other government agencies) have the right, under the JFK Records Act, to postpone release of these records past October 2017 for reasons of national security........
What will President Donald Trump do about the release of JFK records in his first term?
Garfield is pasta history.
It’s not old news, look again. It is dated 4 days ago.
What are you afraid to look at? and why?
It ties into the CIA involvement with the EU posted here 2 days ago.
It reveals the clandestine nature and the danger of a rogue CIA organization.
How is that not pertinent.
Yep. Bush senior doesn’t remember where he was when JFK was shot.
Good Grief!
Don’t expect the nightclub laugh track to make you feel better.
TRUE - it's not nearly worthy of attention as the records of the Clinton years in the White House which are well over due for release after the normal sequestration of 12 years.
Neither LHO or Cruz Sr. or any of the others involved with handing out the “Hands off Cuba” flyers were actually pro-Castro. It was an early data-collection operation in order to identify people with communist tendencies.
In short - it was a technique to identify the enemy.
Cruz’s father WAS on the grassy knoll the day Kennedy was shot.
He was trimming the hedges.
Poppy Bush warned FBI — AFTER — JFK assassinated.
In the hour of the death of President John F. Kennedy, Texas oilman George Herbert Walker Bush named a suspect to the FBI in a “confidential” phone call. He then added he was heading for Dallas.
After you watch the video of Lee Oswald passing out FPCC handbills and read the testimony of the mop up crew sent to Mexico City, it looks like the CIA were very clearly preparing the stage for LHO.
“As far as Cruz’s father, his story has never been properly investigated but......”
since we do not prosecute children for the crimes of their ancestors it does not matter if Ted Cruz’s father actually pulled the trigger of the rifle that fired the shot that killed JFK.
Ted wasn’t even born at the time. The situation has nothing to do with him
How likely is it that the 15,000 pages of records have been maintained in a “pure” condition over the past 50 years?
LOL Trump has won and some people are still flogging a dead horse ... and in this case going after Cruz for something that happened before he was born. :-)
You want to know who killed JFK? Read Mark Fuhrman’s book A Simple Act of Murder. Hard, cold facts.
This Cruz/Oswald crap is truther conspiracy horsesh*t and adds absolutely no value to Free Republic.
Aliens.
It was the Reptilians.
Let’s get a few things straight here. You don’t need to jump to conclusions.
1. The video of LHO & an unknown possibly Cuban was dug out by Cruz opponents back in 2013. No need to blame Trump or the Enquirer.
2. Cruz tells a conflicting story and is dishonest about his origins, his revolutionary activities, his travel to the USA, his whereabouts, his marriages, and much more. Eventually the lying timeline leads to Cruz and Ted’s mother in Canada as Canadian citizens and their child, Ted.
3. No one has ever accused Cruz of being ‘the trigger man’ but you. If he was the assassin, he’d be hiding in Spain or South America, not living in the USA.
Yeah but the assassination of jfk was a good thing. Right?
Oswald killed Kennedy. He was a good shot and he later killed a cop. He’d tried a failed to kill a general a few months before Kennedy.
