JFK Documents Released Amidst Continuing Cloud
by Nate Jackson: On Nov. 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was assassinated while riding in a procession in Dallas. Lee Harvey Oswald was quickly identified as the assassin, though he himself was killed after being taken into custody. And there are few events in American history that have ginned up as many conspiracy theories — including Donald Trump’s outlandish charge during the GOP presidential primary that Raphael Cruz, Ted Cruz’s father, was involved.
Thus it was big news when, on Thursday, President Trump released 2,800 records on Kennedy’s assassination but delayed the release of thousands more, evidently under pressure from the CIA and FBI so as not to harm national security. The remaining documents will be reviewed over the next 180 days, after which there’s no guarantee they’ll see the light of day. The release was in compliance with a law signed in 1992 by George H.W. Bush.
The Washington Post reports, “Researchers had hoped the release would shed new light on Oswald’s movements and contacts in the months before he shot Kennedy. Historians were particularly eager for new details of Oswald’s six-day trip to Mexico City, where he met with Cubans and Soviets two months before the assassination. None of those documents appeared to be in the batch released Thursday.”
In fact, no documents released Thursday undermined the conclusion of the Warren Commission that Oswald acted alone, and yet a majority of Americans continue to believe there was a wider plot. Perhaps that’s because part of the unveiled material included this from FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover: “The thing I am concerned about … is having something issued so we can convince the public that Oswald is the real assassin.” That was likely just an observation, but those inclined to disbelieve the government may always wonder if it was an imperative.
A president must make different decisions than a presidential candidate, and the CIA may be correct about not wanting to reveal assets or methods, even more than 50 years later. But we remain puzzled by the shroud of secrecy surrounding JFK’s assassination and think the whole country would benefit from more transparency.

Hannity leads off with a clip of House Intelligence Committee chairman, Devin Nunes, asking a most pertinent question, “Don’t you think it would have been important for the Congress to know, back in January, when we were first briefed on this Trump dossier that it was actually paid for by the opposition party?” “So the people that made the Russians successful are the Democrats and the people who have continued this nonsense over and over and over again, looking for Russians behind every tree... https://rickwells.us/gorka-clinton-treason-executed/.

Kennedy's assassination for at least another six months at the request of the CIA, FBI and other agencies, The Washington Post reported. 5 details: 1. Oswald talks to KGB officer in Mexico City, 2. Naming a price for Fidel Castro's assassination, 3. FBI receives a death threat on Oswald the day before his death, 4. FBI searches for a stripper named Kitty, 5. Soviets believe Kennedy's death was "organized conspiracy"... http://www.newsmax.com/TheWire/jfk-files-most-riveting-details/2017/10/27/id/822515/?ns_mail_uid=29878495&ns_mail_job=1760660_10272017&s=al&dkt_nbr=010502wacb8n.
THE ROOTS OF THE DEM’S RUSSIA OBSESSION
by Daniel Greenfield
{frontpagemag.com} ~ Five years ago, Mitt Romney was hammering Barack liar-nObama for being soft on Russia. And liar-nObama was ridiculing him as a Cold War fossil... The Russia exchanges may seem confusing today, but back then they were a natural outgrowth of the respective Democrat and Republican foreign policy positions. The Dems had accused President Bush of alienating Russia with the Iraq War. The RINO-McCain/liar-nObama debates echoed the Romney/liar-nObama debates with RINO-McCain taking a harder line on Russia. In ’08, Vladimir Putin even suggested that relations would improve once liar-nObama took office. By ’12, liar-nObama was caught on a hot mic promising more flexibility for Russia after the election was over. Until the end of the liar-nObama era, foreign policy fell along these predictable lines. Republicans focused on the old Cold War need to maintain NATO against Russian expansionism. Democrats had their own Cold War reflex. Whenever they heard Russia, they began to talk about nuclear disarmament. And that was exactly what liar-nObama did... http://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/268220/roots-dems-russia-obsession-daniel-greenfield.

Next state bars business
with companies that boycott Israel
by Ovetta Wiggins{jewishworldreview.com} ~ Republican Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan signed an executive order on Monday that prohibits the state from doing business with companies engaged in a boycott of Israel.
Hogan took the executive action against the Boycott, Divest and Sanction (BDS) movement, an effort started in 2005 by a coalition of Palestinian organizations in response to Israel's occupation of the West Bank territory. BDS activities range from discouraging the purchase of goods produced in Israeli settlements to pressuring international companies not to conduct business in Israel.
"Boycotts based on religion, national origin, place of residence or ethnicity are discriminatory," Hogan said, standing with Jewish leaders from the Baltimore and Montgomery counties."Contracting with businesses that practice discrimination would make the state a passive participant in private-sector commercial discrimination."
Hogan said all future requests for state bids will include language that the company has not refused to do business with or stopped doing business with any person or entity on the basis of Israeli national origin.
The order also calls for the state to terminate any contracts with companies that participate in a boycott of Israel. Hogan said he was unaware of any contracts at risk of being terminated under the order, but added that a review would take place. The order also calls for barring the state pension system from investing in companies engaged in an Israel-related boycott, a move that some say would require legislation to enforce.
The executive order mirrors legislation that failed to receive a committee vote in the General Assembly last session. According to legislative analysts, numerous states, including Illinois, New York, and South Carolina, have taken similar steps.
Del. Benjamin Kramer, D-Montgomery, who sponsored the failed bill, called the governor's order "an important first step to make it clear that Maryland's public policy is not to utilize taxpayer dollars for a bigoted boycott targeting the only nation on this planet with a majority Jewish population."
Kramer and Sen. Robert Zirkin, D-Baltimore County, also a lead sponsor of last year's legislation, said they plan to introduce legislation next session that addresses pension-system investments.
Jewish leaders have pushed for the legislation for years.
Hogan, who led a trade mission to Israel last September, has been cultivating ties with Jewish communities in Maryland. He has visited Jewish schools in Baltimore and Montgomery counties; hosted a Hanukkah party at Government House, and attended a Sabbath dinner at a Montgomery County synagogue.
