Jim DiEugenio documents that intervention by the CIA—and other federal bureaus—on behalf of Clay Shaw and against Jim Garrison was actively sought by Shaw’s defense, and as early as May of 1967, was officially approved by the CIA, and later, other agencies. (From the archives of Probe Magazine)

Jim DiEugenio takes the occasion of Tom Bethell’s recent passing to review his literary career and especially his intriguing early connections to the JFK assassination research community and work on the Jim Garrison investigation.

Barry Ernest replies to John Armstrong’s recent article entitled “Oswald DID NOT Run Down the Stairs” by clarifying the record and revealing various assumptions Armstrong makes in his evaluation of the evidence.

As an introduction to the Fred Litwin Follies, Jim DiEugenio reviews his first book, which attempts to validate the Warren Commission using the thesis that “the authors of the Warren Report were honorable men who conducted an honest investigation and reached the right answer.” Jim, of course, decimates this thesis using a wealth of facts clearly available in the historical record.

Jim DiEugenio guest authors an article for CovertAction magazine, wherein he demonstrates that the Kennedy administration engaged with socialist and non-aligned leaders like Nasser and Sukarno, supported diplomatic solutions to conflict through the UN, stood up to European imperial agents, and was generally against right-wing coups and military intervention. In light of these foreign policies, the presidency and assassination of John Kennedy need to be reevaluated.

Jim DiEugenio examines President John F. Kennedy's economic policy and his relationship to the American Power Elite by reviewing Donald Gibson’s ground-breaking 1994 book, Battling Wall Street, and the role by played by James J. Saxon, his Comptroller of the Currency, in attempting to implement that policy.

In the sixth part of this multi-part series, Vasilios examines a wilderness of mirrors, elite connections, and a pawn on the chess board as he continues to expose and flesh out the Oswald legend. He details associations to Richard Case Nagell, PFC Eugene Dinkin, the OAS, Bill Harvey, Edward Lansdale, Dr. Ochsner, Frederick Henry Osborn Sr., Allen Dulles, Ruth and Michael Paine, C. D. Jackson and Life magazine, Clay Shaw, David Ferrie, Freeport Sulphur, LBJ and Congo, Sukarno and Indonesia, and more!

The MSM is at it again, so Jim DiEugenio writes an open letter to Joe Scarborough, Annette Gordon-Reed, Fredrik Logevall, Van Jones, Kevin Young, and Steven Gillon to correct recent gross distortions of President Kennedy's record on civil rights. He also refers them to his landmark 4-part series examining and exposing this great corruption of history.

Historian Steven Gillon blames the existence of QAnon on Warren Commission critic Mark Lane in a piece commemorating the 57th anniversary of President John F. Kennedy’s assassination and Jim DiEugenio sets the record straight by tracing the true source of right-wing conspiracy culture.

In light of the recent presidential election and the upcoming inauguration of a new president, Mark Adamczyk revisits his earlier work on the mandated final release of JFK assassination records under the JFK Records Collections Act of 1992 and proposes a path forward to enforcing the dictates of this law.
