Tucker wrote:"[thousands of pages of CIA documents relating to JFK's assassination withheld by different cabinets] after nearly 60 years, after the death of every single person involved. But we still can't see them. Clearly it's not to protect any person, they're all dead. It's to protect an institution. But why? Well today we decided to find out. We spoke to someone who had access to the still hidden CIA documents. A person who is deeply familiar with what they contain. We asked this person directly; did the CIA have a hand in the murder of John F. Kennedy, an American president? And here is the reply we received verbatim, "the answer is 'yes'. I believe they were involved. It's a whole different country from what we thought it was. It's all fake.'
Tucker wrote:It's hard to imagine a more jarring response than that. Again, this is not a "conspiracy theorist" we spoke to. Not even close. This is someone with direct knowledge of the information that once again is being withheld from the American public. And the answer we received was unequivocal; yes, the CIA was involved in the assassination of the president. Now some people will not be surprised to hear that, they suspected it all along. But no matter how you feel about or what you thought about the Kennedy assassination, pause to consider what this means. It means that within the US government there are forces wholly beyond democratic control. These forces are more powerful than the elected officials that supposedly oversee them. These forces can affect election outcomes. They can even hide their complicity in the murder of an American president. In other words, they can do pretty much anything they want. They constitute a government within a government. Mocking by their very existence the idea of democracy. As cynical as we have become after 30 years of watching government officials ignore the voters who employ them, we were shocked to learn this. It's not acceptable. Americans have trusted their government less with every passing year since the killing of John F. Kennedy. Maybe this is why.
Tucker has been talking about the collapse of society (paraphrasing but he said something to the extent of 'the way things are can't keep going, our society has grown far too unnatural and nature will strike back') alongside this. He has to be one of the bravest and inspirational public figures out there right now. What a hero
Fun related Americana pop culture nugget; The Beach Boys wrote one of their best songs, The Warmth of The Sun, on or right after the day JFK died. Mike Love and Brian Wilson were writing a song about the loss of love and were inspired by JFK's passing as they finished the song
California represented a picturesque United States at its peak and the Beach Boys were able to harness the soul of that energy into the feel of their music. Just as California perhaps represented the peak United States experience, it now represents the declining future of it.The Beach Boys wrote: The love of my life,
She left me one day,
I cried when she said,
'I don't feel the same way'
