Murder Most Foul, Bob Dylan

I am going to plagurize Jefferson Morley's end of year substack in order to encourage our readers to follow JFK facts on substack or via his newsletter.  This is edited to the major points.

 

JFK's Assassination: What We Learned In 2024  Pleading ignorance of the new evidence demonstrates 'lone gunman' theory is defunct

Case closed?

Not at the CIA. In 2024, we learned that the CIA itself did not believe the lone gunman theory. After President Kennedy was shot dead in Dallas, top officials at the CIA station in Miami investigated Cuban exiles known to the Agency—not Oswald, not Fidel Castro, not the KGB—for orchestrating the ambush in Dealey Plaza. The results of this internal investigation of JFK’s murder have never been made public.

Stephen Jaffe, a former investigator for New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison, told the JFK Facts podcast that French president Charles De Gaulle didn’t believe the official story and instructed his intelligence service to assist Garrison’s investigation.

There’s no new evidence”

In fact, JFK files released in 2024 shows that the CIA lied to the Warren Commission when two top officials testified under oath the Agency had only “minimal” information about Lee Harvey Oswald, the accused assassin, before JFK was killed. JFK Facts revealed that, on the day JFK was killed, the CIA already had a 181 page dossier on his supposed assassin.

There’s no JFK whistleblower”

In fact, a former CIA contract employee told JFK Facts that the Agency maintained a secret archive of JFK assassination records in a Secure Compartmentalized Information Facility (SCIF) in a CIA office building in Herndon Virginia. The whistleblower spoke out, he said, because he “saw something that disturbed him.”

Nobody cares about that anymore”

Think again. Kendrick Lamar, the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show headliner, weaves the JFK story into African-American history on his 2015 Grammy-winning album, “To Pimp a Butterfly.” In 2020 Bob Dylan’s take on November 22, “Murder Most Foul” rose to number one on Billboard’s list of Top 100 downloads. Since 2023 Rob Reiner and Soledad O’Brien’s podcast, Who Killed JFK? has been downloaded 9 million times.
