The question of whether the U.S. government was involved in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy has been debated for decades. Official investigations, including the 1964 Warren Commission and the 1979 House Select Committee on Assassinations (HSCA), concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone, though the HSCA later stated there was a without identifying specific conspirators or state involvement. However, suspicions persist due to inconsistencies, withheld evidence, and the CIA’s documented suppression of critical information during investigations.
### Key Findings & Theories
The CIA has long been a focus of conspiracy theories. Kennedy’s clashes with the agency—including firing Director Allen Dulles and reducing its budget—fueled speculation of retaliation. While some theories allege rogue CIA operatives or high-ranking officials orchestrated the assassination, . The agency’s obstruction of inquiries, however, deepened mistrust. For example:
– The CIA concealed its CIA-Mafia plots from the Warren Commission.
– Agency officials stonewalled investigations into Oswald’s potential ties to U.S. intelligence.
The HSCA’s 1979 report concluded:
– due to evidence of a second gunman.
– The Soviet Union, Cuban government, and organized crime groups were ruled out, though individual members could have participated.
– The CIA, FBI, and Secret Service were , though the CIA failed to share critical intelligence.
– : While the Warren Commission found no evidence Oswald worked for the CIA, his pro-communist activities and prior defection to the USSR left unanswered questions. Some theories suggest he was a CIA asset or patsy.
– : Classified JFK files, including thousands still unreleased, fuel claims of a cover-up. Critics argue transparency could resolve lingering doubts about government knowledge.
### Current Political Context
Recent discourse on Newsmax, including commentary by Stephen Miller and Carl Higbie, has reignited speculation. Miller’s criticism of “communist judges” obstructing Trump’s policies parallels conservative concerns about a “deep state,” echoing historical distrust in institutions. Meanwhile, segments on hidden JFK files question why evidence remains sealed after 60+ years.
### Conclusion
While official investigations absolve the U.S. government of direct involvement, the CIA’s obstruction and lack of full transparency leave room for skepticism. The HSCA’s finding of a probable conspiracy—but not state-sponsored—remains the closest to an authoritative answer. Until all documents are released, the debate will persist, reflecting broader tensions between public trust and governmental secrecy.
