Ep 67: The FBI (Part 1)

What was the role of the FBI – if any – in President Kennedy’s death? When we talk about the FBI, the starting point has to be J. Edgar Hoover. The main questions I want to answer about Hoover are whether he had foreknowledge or involvement in a plot to kill President Kennedy, and whether he knowingly participate in a cover-up of the assassination. But, to be able to unlock the answers to those bigger questions, we must first learn more about Hoover and who he surrounded himself with. What did he care about? What were Hoover’s relationships like with key figures such as Robert Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, and President Kennedy? And what other connections did J. Edgar Hoover have? Twitter - https://twitter.com/solvingjfk Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/solvingjfk Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/solvingjfkpodcast Tik Tok - https://www.tiktok.com/@solvingjfk Transcripts and Sources - https://www.solvingjfkpodcast.comOur Sponsors:* Check out Mood and use my code JFK for a great deal: https://mood.com* Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.com* Check out Thompson Cigars and use my code JFK for a great deal: https://thompsoncigar.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Om Podcasten

Solving JFK examines each issue in the JFK Assassination by looking at the arguments from both those who believe Oswald acted alone and those who believe there was a conspiracy to kill president Kennedy. Host Matt Crumpton analyzes each tree in the forest and then zooms out to look at the big picture. Objective truth is the paramount goal of the podcast, with every factual proposition cited. In season one, we look at whether the Warren Report got it right that Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone assassin, and if not, what the open questions are that still need to be resolved.
