"Overshadowed by the recent revelations in the Epstein files, the 62nd anniversary of President John F. Kennedy's assassination came and went with little notice. Yet new documents relating to that still-unsolved murder-released only recently by the Trump administration-deserve far more scrutiny than they have received from corporate media. From the moment the latest batch of disclosures emerged this past March, the Democratic Party and their allies in corporate media assumed their familiar role as CIA stenographers, either overlooking-or outright refusing to look at-what more than 60,000 documents revealed."
"At an April 1 House hearing, Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX)-illustrating the Democratic Party's loyalty to the U.S. security state-confidently insisted that the JFK files "show no evidence of a CIA conspiracy," and complained that even hearing testimony from Oliver Stone, Jefferson Morley, and Jim DiEugenio amounted to "platform[ing] conspiracy theories." The New York Times' Julian Barnes echoed the Democratic congresswoman nearly word for word, announcing definitively that, "the CIA did not kill JFK...Oswald acted alone," despite the sheer volume of documents that no reporter could have seriously reviewed in such a short span of time."
Recent releases of more than 60,000 JFK-related documents have received minimal public scrutiny. Key Democratic figures and mainstream outlets quickly declared no CIA involvement, labeling renewed inquiries as conspiracy-mongering and asserting that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. Congressional testimony and media statements dismissed calls to reopen the case despite the volume of newly available material. The newly disclosed files, together with previously unsealed congressional records, indicate coordinated concealment by government officials, including CIA personnel who provided misleading statements to the Warren Commission and obstructed a full, transparent investigation.
