From Marc Caputo’s groundbreaking July 4 report in Axios.

“For the first time since President Kennedy's assassination nearly 62 years ago, the CIA has tacitly admitted that an officer specializing in psychological warfare ran an operation that came into contact with Lee Harvey Oswald before the Dallas killing.”

JFK Facts will publish a detailed report later this week about what the release of the Joannides file, tells us about the role of the CIA in the events of 1963.
