Charlie Kirk @charliekirk11 Anna Paulina Luna alleges NBC is withholding a tape showing Lee Harvey Oswald standing next to JFK’s motorcade — not inside the School Book Depository — during the assassination. If true, this tape would radically change our understanding of his death. From MAGA Voice 8:05 PM · Mar 28, 2025

In a recording recently released by Billie Sol Estes’ grandson Shane Stevens, it is claimed that LBJ orchestrated a series of murders, including the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, to consolidate his political power. These claims are based on never-before heard audio of Clifton Carter, the former Executive Director of the Democratic National Committee and close associate of LBJ, admitting that LBJ hired Mac Wallace to assassinate JFK.

• This declassified CIA cable from 1996 provides compelling evidence that Lee Harvey Oswald was, in fact, a CIA asset, according to his Commander at the time. • The cable’s very existence—marked “SECRET” and addressing a specific media inquiry about Oswald’s CIA ties in Japan—reveals an agency on high alert, carefully managing a narrative that threatens to expose a long-buried secret: Oswald’s recruitment • Consider the context… Oswald was stationed at Atsugi, a known CIA hub for covert operations, including U-2 spy plane missions, from 1957 to 1958. • The cable confirms that as late as 1996, a credible UPI...

Trump just revoked EO 11246, signed by President LBJ in 1965 which established gov affirmative action

The modern Democratic Party was birthed in the wake of Lyndon B. Johnson’s failure in Vietnam. LBJ was an expert machine politician, and through his time in Texas and into the national picture, he proved that he knew how to get his hands dirty and organize a political party and take power. Like Joe Biden, his domestic accomplishments were eventually overshadowed by his foreign policy calamity, and after he stepped down in 1968, the Democratic Party changed dramatically and got more conservative.

“I’m going to enjoy the time I’ve got left,” Johnson told friends when he left Washington in January, 1969, a worn old man at sixty, consumed by the bitter, often violent, five years of his presidency. He had never doubted that he could have won the 1968 election against Richard Nixon if he had chosen to run for another term. But in 1967 he launched a secret actuarial study on his life expectancy, supplying personal histories of all the males in the recent Johnson line, himself included. “The men in the Johnson family have a history of dying young,” he...

Rep. Jonathan Jackson (D-IL) went on MSNBC's "Way Too Early" show to say "Trump's emphasis on making government more efficient is a heartless attack on people who depend on government generosity to live. America is a rich country. The surplus of wealth produced by those who are capable should be redistributed to those who have needs. This was the crux of former President Lyndon Johnson's idea of the 'Great Society.' Three generations of Americans have adapted to this process and cannot survive on their own. This includes both the folks receiving the handouts and the government employees who administer the...

President-elect Donald Trump has said he intends to cut government spending by reasserting the presidential power of impoundment, a move certain to spark a court battle and one that could redefine presidential power for decades to come. Impoundment occurs when the president chooses not to disburse funds authorized by Congress; instead leaving them unspent in the U.S. Treasury.This power is not mentioned in the Constitution but has been employed by presidents since Thomas Jefferson. Congress enacted limits on the practice 50 years ago.Now, Trump intends to challenge the Impoundment Control Act of 1974 (ICA), which he believes is unconstitutional.“I will...

“Ponzi Scheme” is a term that was coined about 100 years ago. It was named after an Italian immigrant, Charles Ponzi, who realized he could get investors by promising large returns for undefined, high-yield investments. His endeavor needed to make just enough money to keep attracting new investors, whose money, after Ponzi’s cut, was used to pay some of the earlier investors. In our modern day, Bernie Madoff’s Ponzi scheme resulted in losses in the billions of dollars when the stock market tanked during the Great Recession. Selling the Deal Americans are just beginning to see the tip of the...

The vice president then began singing the praises of Kaunda, a brutal socialist dictator allied with the Soviet Union, who had banned opposing political parties and ran as the only candidate for president until he was finally ousted, and praised Zambia’s “democracy”. Kaunda, whom Kamala fondly recalled meeting with JFK and MLK “to discuss peaceful forms of protest” had demanded nuclear weapons from LBJ. Hichilema, who had narrowly survived being arrested by a previous regime, had nothing to say about Kamala’s fond memories of Zambian democracy. Or the “peaceful forms of protest” carried on with nuclear missiles and terrorism. But...

A union representing roughly 1.8 million teachers and other educational workers used taxpayer-funded dues to book a trip to a famous casino and to pay for meals at luxury restaurants. The American Federation of Teachers (AFT) spent over $370,000 on expenses at Caesars Palace, a luxury hotel and casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, disclosure forms show. In addition, the AFT also used dues collected from its members to help pay for trips to Europe and South America, as well as to pay off five-figure tabs at upscale restaurants. “My suspicion is that this is a case of ‘rank hath its...

The 60th quadrennial presidential election in the United States is in four weeks, less than a month away. As the campaign season is heating up, let’s take a look at the election of 1968, the last time the incumbent President decided not to run for re-election despite not being term-limited, just like President Joe Biden did this year. As the 2024 election is fast approaching, we need to make a big jump in American history, skipping from 1932 to 1968. Evidently, there are a lot of events we have to jump over, here’s a list of just the most significant...

It’s election time again and that means it's time for the Democrats' regular pilgrimage to black communities to remind them of our sad state of affairs where racist evildoers -- Republicans of course -- actively work to keep black people down. And the only hope for relief is by voting for Democrats -- who, by the way, have run the country for 12 of the last 16 years. This race-baiting is disgusting but is what even more disgusting is that large portions of the black community buy into it. Due to the sad state of this country’s K-12 public education...

When the U.S. Congress passed—and President Lyndon B. Johnson signed into law—the Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1965, the move was largely seen as symbolic."The bill will not flood our cities with immigrants,” lead supporter Sen. Edward “Ted” Kennedy (D-Mass.) told the Senate during debate. “It will not upset the ethnic mix of our society. It will not relax the standards of admission. It will not cause American workers to lose their jobs.”That sentiment was echoed by Johnson, who, upon signing the act on October 3, 1965, said the bill would not be revolutionary: “It does not affect the lives...

Rehoboth Beach, Delaware CNN — In the end, President Joe Biden exited the political stage in isolation. After weeks of fighting for his political life – insisting he wasn’t going anywhere following a disastrous debate performance – the president’s about-face did not come in an Oval Office address or a speech on the campaign trail. Instead, it came in letter posted to social media as he recovered from Covid-19 at his beach house in Delaware. It was a low-key way to reveal one of the most historic decisions in modern American politics, but time was not on Biden’s side to...

Most Black adults say the prison (74%), political (67%) and economic (65%) systems in the U.S., among others, are designed to hold Black people back, according to a new Pew Research Center survey in September 2023. For example, 82% of Black adults say they have heard the following racial conspiracy theory about the prison system: Black people are more likely than White people to be incarcerated because prisons want to make money on the backs of Black people. Many Black adults (74%) say this racial conspiracy theory is true and happening in the U.S. today. For this report, we surveyed...

Edward M. Kennedy was romantically described as the last lion, but it might be more accurate to think of him as a river. Especially earlier in his long career, he could be tumultuous and overflow his banks, both politically and in his personal life. But mostly he was steady, forceful, and above all persistent. Particularly in the three decades after his failed 1980 presidential bid

And brought Obama’s father to America. When LBJ signed the 1965 Immigration and Nationality Act into law, JFK had been dead for two years, but it, more than the Cuban missile crisis or the race to the moon, was his real legacy which still impacts us today when there are no more Americans on the moon or nukes in Cuba. At the signing, LBJ paid tribute to “the vision of the late beloved President John Fitzgerald Kennedy”. Little did the 36th president know that the 44th president, born to a radical Kenyan student, was already growing up in this country...

On Jan. 8, 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson during his State of the Union address declared an “unconditional war on poverty in America.” “Poverty is a national problem, requiring improved national organization and support,” Johnson told the members of the U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate. “But this attack, to be effective, must also be organized at the state and the local level and must be supported and directed by state and local efforts. Poverty in the United States stood at 19% in 1964, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The Democratic former Texas U.S....

ALICE, Texas (AP) — In 1977, Associated Press reporter James W. Mangan’s exclusive interview with a South Texas election judge who detailed certifying false votes for Lyndon B. Johnson nearly three decades earlier made headlines across the country. With the win by an 87-vote margin in the 1948 Democratic primary runoff, Johnson, then a congressman, easily defeated his Republican opponent to take a seat in the U.S. Senate, and he eventually ascended to the presidency. Mangan spent three years pursuing the story, which pulled back the curtain on the victory that had drawn suspicions ever since election officials in rural...
