Emerging consensus that LBJ killed JFK?
renewamerica.com ^ | March 31, 2014 | Jeff Lukens

...Lyndon Johnson was a loutish psychopathic willing to do anything to advance his rise to power. His rise was fueled by graft, corruption, and murder. Yes, murder. LBJ's hitman, Malcolm Wallace, had killed seven other people in Johnson's rise to power, including LBJ's own sister, Josefa Johnson.

...As the rift between Kennedy and hardliners widened, into the void stepped Lyndon Johnson. Never to let opportunity go to waste, LBJ found the ultimate solution to his Bobby Baker scandal that was coming to a boil on Capitol Hill. LBJ's days were numbered, and he was facing possible prison. Kennedy was already showing signs that Johnson would be dumped from the 1964 ticket. With his ruthless drive for power, and RFK as the likely successor to the JFK legacy, LBJ would be out in the cold, except of course, if he could pull off the crime of the century, kill JFK, and garner public support in the process.

...For many years, Johnson was a neighbor and a close confidante to J. Edger Hoover, Director of the FBI. Normally, people like him would be in jail, but in LBJ's case, he held much sway with Hoover and the justice system. JFK, however, planned to force Hoover out in 1965 with the mandatory retirement at 70 for all federal employees.

... Johnson's mistress, Madeleine Brown, told investigators years later that Johnson told her that evening, "After tomorrow, those goddamn Kennedys will never embarrass me again. That is no threat. That is a promise."

...LBJ was in the pale blue Lincoln in the motorcade, two cars back from the President's car. LBJ was seen to be ducking low in his car as it approached Elm Street even before the shots were fired. He knew the shots were coming, and he was trying to take cover.

Never cared for LBJ, but I think this is nonsense.

Oswald. Sixth floor window. With a mail-order rifle. I've visited the Sixth Floor Museum in Dallas. When I looked out the window down to the street, the first thing that came to mind is what an easy shot it would have been. (Flame-proof suit on).

LBJ hinted that Castro was behing the assassination. Maybe he did USA a favor?

It’s simple logic...just connect the dots.When you connect the dots regarding 9/11 you’ll find that WTC7 was clearly wired with explosives in the weeks before by men masquerading as Bell Atlantic technicians......

Photo taken during the 1960 Kennedy-Johnson campaign. Here we see an out-of-control Johnson angrily reacting to a heckler while Kennedy tries to restrain him.

My parents always thought it was Johnson too. They thought he had the most to gain and had the organization in TX to do it.

That means nothing. But evidence does mean something and it was ignored at the time, and still is.

JFK, DB Cooper and Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 — all the same - all mysteries, and destined to remain so.

I agree, a very easy shot. How the shooter missed on one shot with a scope must mean he was nervous. It was an easy shot without using a scope. I visited the Dealey Plaza in the 90’s but never entered the building. I also own the Finnish model of the Carcano carbine in 7.35mm. My father downed many a deer just using the fixed open sights.

"A common question to ask is “Who stood to benefit most from JFK’s death?” LBJ."

It's a question you ask to begin an investigation to get some ideas of where to look for evidence. It isn't evidence in itself. There is tons of evidence in this case that was there from the begining. It doesn't point to LBJ.

Out what way? What door are you talking about? I find it fascinating that you would be able to have known everyone that went in and out of a door during all the commotion that must have been going on. Did you know Oswald prior to the assassination so that you would known who you were looking for?

“Interesting theory on Johnson.”

I think it was Glenn Beck or a guest that mentioned how he thought that the JFK assassination conspiracies was linked to some deeper pyschosis of the American mind.

With the Cold War all ramped up - the books and stuff were all about the evil Soviet’s being behind it.

Later, with the fight on crime, the evil mob was behind it.

And now the conspiracy revolves around the former president.....

Forgive me if I'm skeptical about the accuracy of your article, Mr. Lukens.

You said:

Yes, murder. LBJ's hitman, Malcolm Wallace, had killed seven other people in Johnson's rise to power, including LBJ's own sister, Josefa Johnson.

Mac Wallace was a bad guy, Mr. Lukens, but you've overstated your own sources.

We know Mac Wallace was convicted for the murder of John Kinser.

The police sketch drawn in connection with the murder of Henry Marshall looks exactly like Mac Wallace, and appears to confirm Bill Sol Estes' statement that Wallace murdered Marshall.

That's two murders.

To back up your claim that Wallace definitively murdered five others, including LBJ's sister, you like a source that says . . . Billy Sol Estes allegedly told others that Wallace killed others. Estes took the Fifth when under oath before a grand jury.

As for LBJ's sister, whom you say was murdered by Wallace? You link a source that says she "died of a cerebral hemorrhage on 25th December, 1961." I don't know how Wallaced murdered her with a cerebral hemorrhage. Mr. Lukens.

LBJ’s mistress and JFKs widow both agreed LBJ was behind it.

I trust the women.

“It’s certainly not the consensus of the public ...”
Neither was the earth being round at one time. The consensus of the public has given us glowbull whining too.
Ah, the old “flat earth theory” theory. Even Wikipedia will tell you what a fraud that is. A “flat earth” theory can be restated as a theory that the radius of curvature of the earth is infinite. The reason Christopher Columbus had trouble getting backing for his venture is painfully obvious: Columbus’ plan was based on an error. It was based on an error, and the people who wouldn’t back him did so because they recognized the error.

The error? Everyone knew that the earth was round - it was just that Columbus claimed it was more round - had a smaller radius - than it actually does. By half. All you have to do to understand this is to look at an actual globe map, and visualize the distance from Europe to India - or anywhere else in Asia. And then figure how long it the Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria would have had to have sailed after the crews had all starved to death in the absence of undiscovered, but easily discoverable, land in between. Absent the Americas and a few then-undiscovered islands here and there, you would have to sail pretty much the entire Pacific Ocean with your supplies exhausted.

. . . and you think people were stupid not to want to participate in that venture?

Well ... flight 370 will most likely be ‘solved’ when it flies into a building loaded with explosives or a nuke!

And the Kennedy assassination will be solved when the guys confess on their deathbeds ... :-) ...
