Jackie Onassis blames LBJ for JFK’s shooting

Many people have suspected that LBJ was behind the killing of JFK. Johnson was one of the biggest scumbags in American politics. He was crooked and dirty. Plus, he despised JFK who was his rival for the 1960 Democratic nomination. One of the people who suspected LBJ’s role in JFK’s killing was none other than his widow Jackie Onassis. She had an interview recorded that she wanted released after her death. In these tapes, she is convinced LBJ was responsible.

Jackie Onassis believed that Lyndon B Johnson and a cabal of Texas tycoons were involved in the assassination of her husband John F Kennedy, ‘explosive’ recordings are set to reveal.

The secret tapes will show that the former first lady felt that her husband’s successor was at the heart of the plot to murder him.

She became convinced that the then vice president, along with businessmen in the South, had orchestrated the Dallas shooting, with gunman Lee Harvey Oswald – long claimed to have been a lone assassin – merely part of a much larger conspiracy.

Texas-born Mr Johnson, who served as the state’s governor and senator, completed Mr Kennedy’s term and went on to be elected president in his own right.

The tapes were recorded with leading historian Arthur Schlesinger Jnr within months of the assassination on November 22, 1963, and had been sealed in a vault at the Kennedy Library in Boston.

I’m not going top get into conspiracies, but LBJ was an evil nasty individual. His Great Society re-enslaved many Blacks. He fought the Vietnam War with a lousy attrition strategy and rather than follow up the US victory in Tet, he backed off. He lied about who the enemy was in the Dominican Republic in 1965. He was really a low life and whether he was involved in JFK’s death or not, there are still many reasons to despise this man.

JFK asked for UFO files 10 days before his assasination

There are many conspiracies revolving around the assassination of JFK. There are claims the Mafia and CIA did it. Rumor is that LBJ had a hand in it which I do think is plausible. Some even say Castro had a hand in it. Farrakhan even blamed he Jooooos on JFK’s death. But never did I expect to see UFOs thrown into this. According to one report, JFK asked the CIA for UFO files. This happened ten days before he was gunned down in Dallas in 1963.

An uncovered letter written by John F Kennedy to the head of the CIA shows that the president demanded to be shown highly confidential documents about UFOs 10 days before his assassination.

The secret memo is one of two letters written by JFK asking for information about the paranormal on November 12 1963, which have been released by the CIA for the first time.

Author William Lester said the CIA released the documents to him under the Freedom of Information Act after he made a request while researching his new book ‘A Celebration of Freedom: JFK and the New Frontier.’

Read the rest: Was JFK killed because of his interest in aliens?

The question I have is what kind of Aliens? Was it the laughable grey aliens that appeared in remote locations ones? Or was JFK trying to discover information about the evidence of Ancient visitors that many civilizations have stories on? This is all speculation and we will never know!

The truth is out there!

This is an Open Thread!

Update: This video shows the body of a dead alien supposedly found in Siberia.

The 35th President of the United States

Today is one of those dates that when something historic happens, you recall exactly where you were and what you were doing. On November 22, 1963, I was in first grade at Springdale Elementary School in Fort Worth, Mrs. Gill’s class. The school is about 32 miles from where the tragedy took place in downtown Dallas. Dallas, Texas, the United States and the world changed forever on that sunny November afternoon 47 years ago. It’s a time so long ago, but it is still fresh in our minds, like it happened yesterday.

A young, dynamic President died that day and America, with echoes of I Love Lucy, Ozzie and Harriet and Leave It to Beaver ringing in our ears, lost her innocence and the city of Dallas would, for decades, be known as “that place where President Kennedy was killed”. Thankfully, Big D would become one of the biggest cities in the country, home to Fortune 500 companies and as well-known for the Dallas Cowboys as it was as “that place where President Kennedy was killed”. But the thing that made this horrible incident resonate so loudly with the American people was that it was immediately brought into our living rooms by a still-young medium called television. Never before in our nation’s history had a history-making event been brought straight into our living rooms. We could actually see Dealey Plaza and Parkland Hospital, where the President was declared dead. We could see the pink dress the First Lady was wearing, her husband’s blood splattered all over it. These images allowed us all to “be there” as events unfolded around the assassination. Two days later, as the nation and the world watched, Jack Ruby mortally wounded the President’s accused killer, Lee Harvey Oswald, on live TV. It was almost surreal. Can this be happening before our very eyes? Or is it a horrible nightmare from which we would awake and everything would be fine?

Years later, I met a man we’ll call Bill. Bill was the man who took his neighbor to work on November 22, 1963. That neighbor was carrying a package with him as he got into Bill’s car. He said it was curtain rods. The neighbor’s name? Lee Harvey Oswald. My friend, Bill, was an unwitting accomplice to history. I knew Bill for many years before moving out of the Metroplex and he never mentioned that day to me. I found out about it through one of Bill’s family members, who is still a close friend of mine.

I forgot to mention earlier that my Mom and two sisters were shopping near downtown Fort Worth the day of the assassination and the were amongst hundreds of people who watched the Presidential motorcade as it headed out of Fort Worth after President Kennedy’s speech to some group or another. I don’t even know if either of them even remember this or not.

Those are my thoughts about November 22, 1963. Please share yours with us in the comments. We’d love to hear from you.

***I deliberately did not link to any video or photographs of the killing of President Kennedy. We’ve sen them all ad nauseam.***
