-
In 1961, lib professor Arthur Schlesinger, gave to JFK, memo on how to break up CIA.

Comes from 2 days ago when President Trump, yes TRUMP, released more JFK files.
Adds to (already strong) case that CIA had motive to assassinate JFK, who opposed them, as he should
Schlesinger: “The contemporary CIA possesses many of the characteristics of a state within a state.”
“There is no doctrine governing our conduct of clandestine operations.” [ed: it's often senseless; no theory to guide or set limits]
Schlesinger slammed the idea that the CIA should “fight fire with fire” to defeat communism.
“If fighting fire with fire means contracting the freedoms traditionally enjoyed by Americans in order to give more freedom to the CIA, no one seriously wishes to do that.”
How quaint.
In 2025, Dems / "liberals" are programmable Non-Player Characters who LUUUUUUUUuuuuuuuuuuuuuv CIA, FBI, & spew anything that CIA-FBI media tell them.
Wasn't always like that.
"Never let it be forgot, that once there was a Camelot"
more
“A number of governments still in power know that they have been targets of CIA attempts at overthrow — not a state of mind calculated to stimulate friendly feelings toward” the US.
& still today.
Ukraine war.....began in 2014....provoked by CIA "Maidan coup" & installation of at least 12 (per New York Times) CIA bases in that country.
How will Ukraine peeps feel about CIA or UK/USA/NATO, when it ends?
Schlesinger proposed that JFK de-couple the CIA’s clandestine operations from its research and analysis work.
“If intelligence is too closely connected with operations, then those committed to a particular operation will tend to select out the intelligence which validates the operation.”
Ya think?

I don't know if this
memo is real. Seen it discussed in prior years, would love to learn.
Purported memo from JFK - dated Nov 12, 1963, 10 days before assassination - tells CIA to cough up files of "high threat" UFO incidents for to share with Soviet Union.
Again: I don't know its authenticity.
& remember, term "UFO" then could mean anything, could be hi-tech craft of human beings. Does not have to mean aliens.
But SOME say, this JFK memo was final straw / made CIA assassination op (already prepared) "go".
watermark "dailymailcrime" seems to be TikTok account of "The Crime Desk". Tied to DailyMailOnline? but it seems far out, even for them.
