RFK Jr. Claims Pompeo Influenced Trump on JFK Files

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has made startling claims regarding the JFK assassination files, alleging that former CIA Director Mike Pompeo persuaded Donald Trump not to release these documents during his presidency. In a recent interview, RFK Jr. recounted a conversation with Trump, where the former president revealed that Pompeo 'begged' him to keep the files sealed, citing potential catastrophic consequences. This revelation comes as Trump has promised to disclose the remaining JFK files if re-elected, following an assassination attempt on him, which has fueled further conspiracy theories. Kennedy Jr. has been vocal in criticizing the secrecy surrounding the assassination and has suggested that the withheld documents could implicate significant political figures or challenge the established narrative. Additionally, he expressed interest in the role of CIA Director, recognizing the political challenges that such an appointment would entail. The discourse around these revelations has reignited longstanding debates about the assassination and the role of intelligence agencies in American political history.
