CBS Newsflash From Nov. 22nd 1963 Re: The JFK Assassination

This video footage from the late morning - early afternoon of Nov. 22nd 1963 was taped live from CBS. As is often the case with such events, the initial reports prove to be the most accurate. Included the following:

1) A report of a "few individuals" seen moving around near the underpass of the (Stemmons) bridge;
2) Shots fired from the crowd gathered along the parade route;
3) Some Secret Service agents reporting what sounded to them like "automatic weapons fire";
4) ...coming from the REAR of the chief executive's car;
5) ..."possibly from a GRASSY KNOLL";
6) Officers seen running up this grassy knoll (as was reported later by Mr. Cronkite) with guns drawn;
7) ..."suggesting that this is where the shots came from".

Notice also in these initial broadcasts that the rifle recovered from the sixth floor of the TSBD was first and numerous times reported to be a MAUSER bolt action rifle (in 7.65mm Mauser caliber).

Notice also how the story changes over time from "shots heard coming from the grassy knoll" to "3 shots being fired from behind the Presidents motorcade", to the switching of the weapon recovered from the TSBD into a Mannlicher-Carcano rifle, in 6.5 mm Carcano.

Notice also in several frames of this time in Mr. Cronkite's office, is a strange man in a suit and dark sunglasses standing around the perimeter against the walls. Nobody speaks to him and afterwards, nobody knew who he was or how he had gotten into the broadcast room.

This footage positively demonstrates the official coverup that took place literally within hours of the shooting.

One thing that was missing from Mr. Cronkite's initial report, was the fact that Jackie had said: "Oh no, they've shot Jack!"... THEY'VE...

I put this up earlier this week.
.
There are still unreleased documents that the CIA refuses to release about this coup. President Biden could decree that release. Nobody else will or can do this.

George H. W. Bush was in Dallas on November 22, 1963. I know so because AFTER THE ASSASSINATION he phoned the FBI to report a name he heard threaten JFK:





TO: SAC, HOUSTON DATE: 11-22-63

FROM: SA GRAHAM W. KITCHEL

SUBJECT: UNKNOWN SUBJECT;
ASSASSINATION OF PRESIDENT
JOHN F. KENNEDY

At 1:45 p.m. Mr. GEORGE H. W. BUSH, President of the Zapata Off-Shore Drilling Company, Houston, Texas, residence 5525 Briar, Houston, telephonically furnished the following information to writer by long distance telephone call from Tyler, Texas.

BUSH stated that he wanted to be kept confidential but wanted to furnish hearsay that he recalled hearing in recent weeks, the day and source unknown. He stated that one JAMES PARROTT has been talking of killing the President when he comes to Houston.

BUSH stated that PARROTT is possibly a student at the University of Houston and is active in political matters in this area. He stated that he felt Mrs. FAWLEY, telephone number SU 2-5239, or ARLINE SMITH, telephone number JA 9-9194 of the Harris County Republican Party Headquarters would be able to furnish additional information regarding the identity of PARROTT.

BUSH stated that he was proceeding to Dallas, Texas, would remain in the Sheraton-Dallas Hotel and return to his residence on 11-23-63. His office telephone number is CA 2-0395.

Of course, we didn’t know any of that until decades later when another FBI memo mentioned Mr. GEORGE Bush of the CIA” popped up when Poppy was running for preznit.





Date: November 29, 1963

To: Director
Bureau of Intelligence and Research
Department of State

From: John Edgar Hoover, Director

Subject: ASSASSINATION OF PRESIDENT JOHN F. KENNEDY
NOVEMBER 22, 1963

Our Miami, Florida, Office on November 23, 1963, advised that the Office of Coordinator of Cuban Affairs in Miami advised that the Department of State feels some misguided anti-Castro group might capitalize on the present situation and undertake an unauthorized raid against Cuba, believing that the assassination of President John F. Kennedy might herald a change in U. S. policy, which is not true.

Our sources and informants familiar with Cuban matters in the Miami area advise that the general feeling in the anti-Castro Cuban community is one of stunned disbelief and, even among those who did not entirely agree with the President's policy concerning Cuba, the feeling is that the President's death represents a great loss not only to the U. S. but to all of Latin America. These sources know of no plans for unauthorized action against Cuba.

An informant who has furnished reliable information in the past and who is close to a small pro-Castro group in Miami has advised that these individuals are afraid that the assassination of the President may result in strong repressive measures being taken against them and, although pro-Castro in their feelings, regret the assassination.

The substance of the foregoing information was orally furnished to Mr. George Bush of the Central Intelligence Agency and Captain William Edwards of the Defense Intelligence Agency on November 23, 1963, by Mr. W. T. Forsyth of this Bureau.

Poppy Doc Bush set the table for Reagan and now we see the country set for the Turd Reich Supreme Cult 6-3 putsch. All legal-like.
