Watch LBJ's body and eye language in the video below, in my opinion, it indicates deception.

On the night of New Year’s Eve
Dec. 31st, 1963, at the Driskell Hotel, Lyndon Johnson and Madeleine Brown, one
of his longtime mistresses, had an interesting conversation. Madeleine asked
LBJ if he had anything to do with the JFK assassination. Johnson got angry; he
began pacing around and waving his arms. Then LBJ told her: it was Dallas, TX,
oil executives and “renegade” intelligence agents who were behind the JFK
assassination. LBJ later also told his chief of staff Marvin Watson that the
CIA was involved in the murder of John Kennedy.
Lyndon
Johnson would often stay at the Driskill (room #254 today) and LBJ is confirmed
by his presidential schedule as being present at the Driskill Hotel the night
of 12/31/63
History
is proving that Lyndon Johnson played a key role in the JFK assassination. An
important book is LBJ: The Mastermind of the JFK Assassination (2011) by
Phillip Nelson. Roger Stone, an aide to Richard Nixon, is writing a book
pinning the JFK assassination on LBJ. Stone quotes Nixon as saying “Both Johnson
and I wanted to be president, but the only difference was I wouldn’t kill for
it.”
By
1973 Barry Goldwater privately telling people that he was convinced that LBJ
was behind the JFK assassination.
Lyndon
Johnson and the Kennedys hated each other. So why was LBJ even put on the 1960
Demo ticket in first place? The old wive’s tale is that it was to balance the
ticket and win the electoral votes of Texas. The reality is that JFK was set to
pick Sen. Stuart Symington of Missouri and had already had a deal with
Symington to be VP that was “signed, sealed & delivered” according to
Symington’s campaign manager Clark Clifford. Then something strange happened on
the night of July 13, 1960, in Los Angeles. According to Evelyn Lincoln, JFK’s
longtime secretary, LBJ and Sam Rayburn were using some of Hoover’s blackmail
information on John Kennedy to force JFK to put Johnson on the ticket in a
hostile takeover of the vice presidency.
JFK
told his friend Hy Raskin, “They threatened me with problems and I don’t need more
problems. I’m going to have enough problems with Nixon.”
LBJ
& Hoover were very close and literally neighbors for 19 years in
Washington, DC, from 1943-1961. Both men were also plugged in socially and
professionally to Texas oil executives such as Clint Murchison, Sr, H.L. Hunt
and D.H. Byrd.
From
that point on, for the next 3 and 1/3 years the Kennedy brothers and LBJ were
engaged in a sub rosa war, even though they were ostensibly a political team.
On the day of the ’61 inauguration, LBJ protege Bobby Baker told Don Reynolds
that JFK would never live out his term and that he would die a violent death.
For
his part, Robert Kennedy spent the remainder of JFK’s term trying to figure out
a way to get rid of the power-grasping LBJ. The first opportunity to do this
was the Billie Sol Estes scandal of 1961. Estes was a cut out for LBJ doing
business and had received $500,000 from LBJ (which tells us how important Estes
was). LBJ and his aide Cliff Carter manipulated the federal bureaucracy for
Estes to ensure that he got exclusive grain storage contracts and numerous
other special and highly lucrative favors. Estes says that he funneled Johnson
over $10 million in kickbacks.
Henry
Marshall was a US agricultural official who was investigating the corruption of
Estes, particularly his abuse of a cotton allotment program. In January, 1961,
LBJ, Cliff Carter, Estes and LBJ’s personal hit man Malcolm Wallace had a
meeting about what to do about Henry Marshall. LBJ said, “It looks like we will
just have to get rid of him.”
Side
note: the first person who accused Lyndon Johnson of committing a murder
was Gov. Allan Shivers who in 1956 personally accused LBJ of having Sam
Smithwick murdered in prison in 1952. Smithwick was threatening to go public
with information about the Box 13 ballot stuffing scandal of 1948 which gave
LBJ the margin of victory over Coke Stevenson in the Democratic primary.
Henry
Marshall was murdered on June 3, 1961. He was shot to death 5 times with a bolt
action gun and his death was astoundingly ruled a suicide at the time. The
Marshall murder & cover up shows the depth, breadth and absolute
ruthlessness of the LBJ organization. Billie Sol Estes died on May 14,
2013.
Historian
Douglas Brinkley has said that by 1963 JFK and his vice president LBJ had no
relationship at all. That is not correct; in fact a sub rosa war was being
waged between the Kennedys and LBJ. It was an adversarial, death struggle
relationship.
In
the fall of 1963, the Bobby Baker scandal exploded into the national media.
Bobby Baker, who as the secretary of the Senate was a virtual son to Lyndon
Johnson, was being investigated for a vending machine kick back scam and
numerous shady deals. Baker was known for providing booze & women to the
senators. LBJ denied any relationship with Baker (who had named two of his kids
after LBJ) while at the same time sending his personal lawyer Abe Fortas to run
(control) Baker’s defense. Evelyn Lincoln told author Anthony Summers that the
Kennedys were going to use the Bobby Baker scandal as the ammunition to get rid
of LBJ.
Robert
Kennedy had a two-track program to get rid of LBJ. Phil Brennan was in DC at
the time: “Bobby Kennedy called five of Washington’s top reporters into his
office and told them it was now open season on Lyndon Johnson. It’s OK, he told
them, to go after the story they were ignoring out of deference to the
administration.” James Wagenvoord, who in 1963 was a 27-year old assistant to
LIFE Magazine’s managing editor, says that based on information fed from Robert
Kennedy and the Justice Dept., LIFE Magazine had been developing a major
news break piece concerning Johnson and Bobby Baker. This expose was set to run
within a week of the JFK assassination. LBJ aide George Reedy said that LBJ
knew about the RFK-inspired media campaign against him and was obsessed with
it.
RFK’s
other “get rid of LBJ” program was an investigation by the Senate Rules
Committee into LBJ’s kickbacks and other corruptions. Burkett Van Kirk was a
counsel for that committee and he told Seymour Hersh that RFK had sent a lawyer
to the committee to feed them damaging information about LBJ and his corrupt
business dealings. The lawyer, Van Kirk said, “used to come up to the Senate
and hang around me like a dark cloud. It took him about a week or ten days to,
one, find out what I didn’t know, and two, give it to me.” The goal of the
Kennedys was “To get rid of Johnson. To dump him. I am as sure of that the sun
comes up in the east,” said Van Kirk to Hersh.
Above, a man unknown to me, gives a wink of approval to LBJ. If someone reading this, knows who this man is please let me know.
Literally
at the very moment JFK was being assassinated in Dallas on 11-22-63, Don
Reynolds was testifying in a closed session of the Senate Rules Committee about
a suitcase of $100,000 given to LBJ for his role in securing a TFX fighter jet
contract for Fort Worth’s General Dynamics.
Three
days before the JFK assassination, JFK told Evelyn Lincoln that he was going to
get a new running mate for 1964. “I was fascinated by this conversation and
wrote it down verbatim in my diary. Now I asked, “Who is your choice as a
running-mate.’ He looked straight ahead, and without hesitating he replied, ‘at
this time I am thinking about Gov. Terry Sanford of North Carolina. But it will
not be Lyndon.'”
At
this point I should add that I think the CIA/military intelligence today's "deep state" murdered
John Kennedy for Cold War reasons, particularly over Cuba policy. The fact that
the Kennedys were within days of politically executing & personally
destroying Lyndon Johnson could very well have been the tripwire for the JFK
assassination.
The Russians
immediately suspected that Texas oilmen were involved in the JFK assassination.
They and Fidel Castro both feared they were going to be framed for it by US
intelligence. By 1965 the KGB had internally determined that Lyndon Johnson was
behind the JFK assassination.
Hoover wrote to LBJ about this
in a memo that was not declassified by the US government until 1996:
“On
September 16, 1965, this same source [an FBI spy in the KGB] reported that the
KGB Residency in New York City received instructions approximately September
16, 1965, from KGB headquarters in Moscow to develop all possible information
concerning President Lyndon B. Johnson’s character, background, personal
friends, family, and from which quarters he derives his support in his position
as President of the United States. Our source added that in the instructions
from Moscow, it was indicated that “now” the KGB was in possession of data
purporting to indicate President Johnson was responsible for the assassination
of the late President John F. Kennedy. KGB headquarters indicated that in view
of this information, it was necessary for the Soviet Government to know the
existing personal relationship between President Johnson and the Kennedy
family, particularly between President Johnson and Robert and “Ted” Kennedy.”
