Thanks for the shout out for Dr. Titovets Oswald book Jeff! I'm always glad to hear anyone mention how valuable Titovets' account of Oswald actually is. I'm the Paula Botan mentioned in the acknowledgments section of the book. No one has any idea how accidental the publication of that book really was. Someday I'll have to write a book about it myself!

But yes, the photo above and all of LHO's reactions to cameras during the worst part of his life. He loved it. He wanted to be recognized as someone important......finally. But when questioned about JFK he then knew he had been framed and you could see the acid hitting his stomach.

What do you guys think about Mary's Mosaic. I'm torn. DC is such a ghetto ass town I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't a rape gone bad. Yes goofball Angleton digging into the buildings but it was after the murder had been announced. If he really wanted something, and i were him, and known it was going to happen, i would have gone in right after she left for the the path and brought someone with me that knew how to pick a lock. i don't know, maybe the zia was short handed then too. lots of variables........and that.

Here’s the source for my comment in the above JFK Facts Live Podcast [recorded March 28, 2024], concerning Warren Commission General Council J. Lee Rankin’s statement that Texas Attorney General Waggoner Carr had called him that morning [January 22, 1964] & informed him that, according to Dallas County District Attorney Henry Wade — Lee Harvey Oswald was allegedly a paid FBI Undercover Agent [see first page].

As I mentioned in the podcast, also recorded in the minutes to the specially-called Warren Commission Executive Session of January 22, 1964, is the statement by former Director of Central Intelligence, Allen Dulles, who stated “I think this record ought to be destroyed.” [referring to the Executive Session’s meeting minutes; see page 13].

16:31 in - law rules supreme if they make the promise the law must dictate the promise be fulfilled. Other wise they cannot make the promise but must have rigid over site of the classification system to ensure the politicians do not have the final say in releasing official government conduct. So Congress must give up their claim to over site when they deliver none. FYI CREST see muckrock.com they have the program available.

I am awaiting Knott Labratory’s digital forensic analysis of Dealey Plaza gunshots before I’m buying your hypothesis. Far too many concocted theories on this tragic event, starting with Arlan Spector.

I have to wonder. See below the note after the photo above.

"Taken together, these stories (as told in Chad Nagle's ongoing series "Trail of Destruction" illuminate the extraordinary and disturbing lengths the U.S. government is prepared to advance the official narrative of the "lone gunman " in President Kennedy's murder. Yes "indeed" they do. A Hurculean effort by CIA.

I sometime ago posited this story is much more than it appears to be on the surface. "Think bigger", I suggested. Crickets! NO response. Morley discarded my comments about Israel and diversion of SNM Special Nuclear Materials from Zalmon

Shapiro's Nuclear Materials and Equipment, NUMEC to Israel. Something JFK was bound to learn of especially if he were re-elected. I do get it though and all politics are local, especially in the District of Columbia although times are currently changing. However I was not deterred.

In the above Morley text I find some solace for my thoughts. Quoting Morley "illuminate the extraordinary and disturbing lengths the U.S. government is prepared to go to to advance the official narrative of the "lone gunman" in President Kennedy's murder."

Why would the agency go to such lengths to cover this story up? If true the agency suspected Cubans, and/or OSS oldtimers simply because of their hatred and for their visceral enjoyment of seeing his brain splattered all over Daley Plaza when the

agency would be the one entity to directly benefit the most from his death. One must remember Angleton was the contact at CIA for Israel and Israels MOSSAD from the very early beginning of his tenure are CIA. He was the Israeli desk at CIA.

JFK and RFK were on a mission to stifle the Israeli bomb program, had JFK lived Angleton would have been a primary suspect involved with the diversion, whether he knew of it or not. (he was connected at the hip to MOSSAD.) The direct result of the intentions of JFK and RFK, in my opinion to pigeon hole AIPAC predecessor and force AIPAC to come clean on it's income.

Regardless, JFK was headed for reelection and CIA found itself in serious jeopardy of having Angleton found out as well as JFK discovering the NUMEC diversion that appeared to Roger J. Mattson to have been an inside job.

JFK surviving long enough to be reelected was becoming a pressing issue, TIME was growing short, he had to go and the sooner the better, that is time was becoming a critical factor in CIA decision making.

My knowledge of the USAEC United States Atomic Energy Commission, especially by virtue of Roger J. Mattson's book Stealing the Atomic Bomb and my previous knowledge about USAEC problems seems a reason as plausible as any CIA came up with. This angle seems to me to present the viable motive for CIA who with their mole problems had stricken some at CIA with the fear of CIA being dissolved. Why fear old OSS hacks or disgruntled Cubans when the hated JFK had become a serious problem for Israel's nuke program. Angleton and Solie both would have been deeply concerned for his own neck. Protect the agency by protecting Solie Angleton, and Israel is protected by the insulation provided by a couple of lowlifes.

The diversion of SNM, fissile materials needed to build an atomic bomb, supplied more than ample reason, motive , opportunity and means for CIA to be very nervous about the survival of JFK. It does seem apparent however CIA had plenty of problems that needed to be dealt with.

Time has proven to be an enemy of CIA's plan to cover up the truth about what happened in Dallas 11/22/63.

Through the hard work of a great many individuals especially Jeff Morley among a list of others who were engaged earlier in the endeavor and too many others to list here. Appearances seem to indicate, in my opinion, CIA has had serious issues with their original story. A story which has only managed to survive to this point in time due to the over reach of authority allowed the agency by the DOJ and other NSA interests involved.

Of course, there does exist another problem for CIA. Some who comment here have raised the specter of Bruce Solie being a Russian mole inside the CIA Office of Security, others suspected Angleton of being a mole also, so why is Solie not known as widely and Angleton?

When we consider in Morley's words, "illuminate the extraordinary and disturbing lengths the U.S. Government to go to to advance the official narrative." I have to assume as I have stated before I seems the Kennedy death was a very long limb to climb out on to simply protect CIA from JKF's wrath. I mean they thought he was a coward right! Something else seems to have been going on here.

If JFK lives and disassembles CIA Kennedy will learn of , Solie a Russian mole and Angleton an Israeli mole. Both working in CIA Security. Not a good look for the Self touted greatest intelligence agency on earth.

CIA found itself in a position to gain great "utility" by an executive action. So far it has worked but I believe it is only a matter time. Be advised as time moves on and facts continue to come out we all might need to vigilant for interlopers who work to support the evil evil evil CIA are apparently out there misguided or not. As I have said about the Queen of Chaos and Slick Willy, hell they can't suicide us all!

Never underestimate your adversary. When someone or entity tells you who they are believe them. CIA hardly ever leaves anything to chance but in their haste to dispose of a problem they made for themselves, lack of effective internal security, they screwed up and Oswald got caught by Dallas PD before CIA could hit the "Patsy". Could it be Officer Tippit paid the price for doing his job?

I'll be contacting my U.S Congressman about the legislation mentioned. Hopefully the republicans will totally self destruct before this upcoming election and not pose a large problem.

Thanks Jeff, you very useful devil you!

So, who is in charge of the destruction and hiding of evidence?

There were double Oswalds in New Orleans cited by several investigators. How does one differentiate them in the events covered here?
