JEH was conservative, by the book, meticulous leader whose record of accomplishments in methods of investigation, forensics, and anti-communist efforts is second to none. The left hated him with a passion and worked tirelessly to discredit him and the agency. As long as he was alive they got nowhere. Once dead is was important for them to discredit him and the agency. The FBI, during the social revolution of the 60s and 70’s, was so successful in neutering Weathermen, SDS, and Black Panthers, mostly by infiltrating them, that Congress passed legislation limiting that important tool, essentially tying their hands behind their back. He is also the one who stood tall in keeping the KGB from running rampart on our shores. If there is one person this FR site should stand behind it is JEH. I read an excellent, well researched book about all of this good work a few years ago, but I just can’t recall the name of it. I am an octogenarian and memory is not a strong suit.

The Feds took over a century to repeal a telephone excise tax set up to help fund the Spanish-American War, so it is possible you are right. However, in an era of declining trust in government and the absence of national security concerns, as the Soviet Union is long gone, and the fact that all the major players are dead, everything should be released, unredacted.

This was 1963, and this was Dallas Texas. The good old boys in the DPD let their village idiot friend Jack Ruby come and go in the DPD as he had been doing for years. Ruby always carried a hand gun because of his seedy strip club business. The DPD wasn’t concerned, lots of men carried hand guns all over the place. This was Texas 54 years ago, DUHH!!!!

Hoover was absolutely right for criticizing the DPD, they were IDIOTS for how they handled security when moving Oswald. Of course, the DPD afterwards tried to cover up their negligence and incompetence.

Yes, additionally, Connolly’s front seat in the limo was something like 6 to 12 inches lower than JFK’s back seat in the limo, the back seat had been built up for JFK and his wife so the crowds could see them a little bit better through the windows. The difference in seat heights helps explain how the bullets travelled through JFK and Connolly.

It was a bad last minute decision by the SS to put the limousine top down, that was not what they normally allowed. Again, bad judgement, incompetence by the SS. They had much to atone for.

Nearly every single terrorist act has been declared to be a ‘lone wolf’ operation.

They declare motives asap because they are mind-readers.

The OKC - Murrah Fed building was first suspected of being MId. Easterners, then White ex-military right wingers.

They never followed up on John Doe #2, the Hispanic looking guy ID’d by a dozen eye-witnesses. He clearly resembled very closely Jose’ Padilla- the PR muzzie convert. We are left to wonder if there’s more to that story.
