The Banned Interview: What LBJ Confessed About JFK’s Death DD

September 1969. LBJ Ranch, Stonewall, Texas. Lyndon Baines Johnson sat across from Walter Kankite, the most trusted man in American news. 5 years had passed since the Warren Commission concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in killing President Kennedy. LBJ had created that commission, appointed its members, endorsed its findings, built his presidency on that conclusion.

But now retired and exhausted, Johnson was about to say something that would shatter his own narrative. The cameras rolled. Kronhite asked about the assassination, and Johnson, the man who’d spent 5 years promoting the lone gunman story, confessed, “I can’t honestly say that I’ve ever been completely relieved of the fact that there might have been international connections.

” >> I asked Mr. Johnson. Then whether he was satisfied there was no international conspiracy in his assassination. >> I can’t honestly say that I’ve ever been completely relieved of the fact that there might have been international connections. >> International connections conspiracy. The opposite of everything the Warren Commission claimed. Kronite was stunned.

This was the president who’d insisted Oswald acted alone. Now admitting he never believed it. But Americans never saw this interview because Johnson demanded it be suppressed, banned, hidden in CBS vaults until after his death. If you want to understand why the man who sold America the lone gunman lie admitted on camera that he never believed it, hit that like button because this isn’t rumor.

This is LBJ’s own words recorded, documented, and deliberately hidden from the public for decades. November 29th, 1963, 7 days after Dallas, President Lyndon Johnson signed Executive Order 11,130, creating the President’s Commission on the Assassination of President Kennedy, known forever after as the Warren Commission.

LBJ chose the members carefully. Chief Justice Earl Warren, chairman. Senator Richard Russell, Georgia Democrat. Senator John Sherman Cooper, Kentucky Republican. Representative Hail Bogs, Louisiana Democrat. Representative Gerald Ford, Michigan Republican. Alan Dulles, former CIA director, fired by Kennedy after Bay of Pigs. John J.

Mcclo, banker, former high commissioner of Germany. Notice something? Alan Dulles. Kennedy had fired him. And Johnson put him on the commission investigating Kennedy’s murder. That’s like appointing a fired employee to investigate his former boss’s death. The commission’s mission was clear. Reassure the American public, prevent conspiracy theories, maintain stability, close the case quickly.

September 27th, 1964. Just 10 months later, the Warren Commission released its report. 888 pages. Conclusion: Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. No conspiracy, foreign or domestic. LBJ endorsed it completely. Told the nation to accept it. move on. Have confidence. But privately, Johnson never believed a word of it.

Even as LBJ promoted the Warren Commission’s findings, he expressed private doubts. To associates, Johnson repeatedly suggested the assassination was retaliation for the CIA’s role in assassinating South Vietnam President Ungo DM 3 weeks before Kennedy’s death. CIA director Richard Helms later testified. President Johnson used to go around saying that the reason President Kennedy was assassinated was that he had assassinated President DM.

This was Johnson’s theory. Not Oswald acting alone. Not a lone nut, but blowback, revenge, CIA operations gone wrong. But publicly, Johnson said nothing. Endorsed the Warren Commission. Insisted Oswald was a lone gunman. The contradiction aided him. September 1969, Johnson had been out of office for 8 months, exhausted, bitter, free to speak.

CBS sent Walter Kankite to the LBJ ranch to film a series of interviews. The subject, Johnson’s presidency, Vietnam, civil rights, the Kennedy assassination. When Kronite asked about Dallas, Johnson opened up and what he said contradicted everything he’d spent 5 years claiming. First, Johnson admitted he’d always suspected international connections.

I can’t honestly say that I’ve ever been completely relieved of the fact that there might have been international connections. International connections. That’s conspiracy language. That’s the opposite of Oswald acted alone. Second, Johnson criticized the investigation. Johnson expressed frustration with how the investigation was handled.

The failure to properly protect Kennedy. The failure to secure Oswald before Ruby killed him. The rush to conclusions. Third, Johnson defended the Warren Commission, but with damning faint praise. They did the best they could. Not they got it right. Not I have complete confidence, just they did their best with what they had.

Translation: The Warren Commission was inadequate, but it was the best cover story available. Kronite was shocked. This was explosive. The former president on camera admitting he never believed the official story. But Johnson wasn’t done. He made a demand. This portion of the interview could not air until after his death.

National security. Johnson claimed. Sensitive information. International implications. CBS complied. The interview was edited. Johnson’s conspiracy admission was cut. The tape was locked in CBS vaults. Walter Kankhite later said the Warren Commission had cast a permanent shadow on the answers by allowing the FBI and CIA to investigate themselves.

But in 1969, Kronite couldn’t report what Johnson had told him because Johnson had imposed a gag order. The American people were denied the truth again. LBJ’s paranoia about the assassination grew over time. He became convinced he’d be next. According to biographer Robert Caro, Johnson was terrified of being killed.

Obsessed with security, paranoid about the Secret Service’s ability to protect him, Johnson told Associates, “If they could get to Kennedy, they could get to me.” Who were they? Johnson never specified, but his fear was real, and it drove his policies. Vietnam escalation, FBI surveillance, CIA operations. Johnson wanted to control everything because he believed forces beyond his control had killed Kennedy and might kill him too.

January 22nd, 1973, Lynden Johnson died of a heart attack at his Texas ranch. He was 64 years old. Two years later, April 24th, 1975, CBS aired the suppressed portion of the 1969 kron kite interview on CBS Nightly News, including Johnson’s admission about international connections. By then, Johnson was dead. The Warren Commission’s credibility was shattered.

The House Select Committee on Assassinations would soon begin investigating. Conspiracy theories were mainstream. Johnson’s confession was no longer shocking. It was confirmation. The man who’d created the Warren Commission, who’d endorsed its findings, who’ told America to accept the lone gunman story, had never believed it himself.

Lyndon Johnson’s confession reveals the fundamental lie at the heart of the JFK investigation. The Warren Commission wasn’t about finding truth. It was about maintaining stability, preventing panic, closing the case. Johnson knew it was inadequate, knew there were international connections, knew Oswald didn’t act alone, but he endorsed it anyway because admitting conspiracy, admitting that Kennedy was killed by forces within or connected to the US government would have destroyed America’s faith in institutions.

Better to lie, better to create a commission that would deliver the right answer, better to suppress evidence and silence witnesses. And when Johnson finally told the truth to Walter Kankite in 1969, he made sure Americans wouldn’t hear it until after he was dead. If this investigation made you question everything you were told about Dallas, hit that like button.

Share with anyone who still believes the Warren Commission. Subscribe for more investigations into the confessions, admissions, and deathbed revelations that expose official lies. Tell us why did LBJ suppress his own confession, fear, guilt, complicity? Because Lynden Johnson knew the truth about Dallas and he spent his entire presidency hiding it.

But in 1969, Kronite couldn’t report what Johnson had told him because Johnson had imposed a gag order. The American people were denied the truth again. LBJ’s paranoia about the assassination grew over time. He became convinced he’d be next. According to biographer Robert Caro, Johnson was terrified of being killed.

Obsessed with security, paranoid about the Secret Service’s ability to protect him, Johnson told Associates, “If they could get to Kennedy, they could get to me.” Who were they? Johnson never specified, but his fear was real, and it drove his policies. Vietnam escalation, FBI surveillance, CIA operations. Johnson wanted to control everything because he believed forces beyond his control had killed Kennedy and might kill him too.

January 22nd, 1973, Lynden Johnson died of a heart attack at his Texas ranch. He was 64 years old. Two years later, April 24th, 1975, CBS aired the suppressed portion of the 1969 kron kite interview on CBS Nightly News, including Johnson’s admission about international connections. By then, Johnson was dead. The Warren Commission’s credibility was shattered.

The House Select Committee on Assassinations would soon begin investigating. Conspiracy theories were mainstream. Johnson’s confession was no longer shocking. It was confirmation. The man who’d created the Warren Commission, who’d endorsed its findings, who’ told America to accept the lone gunman story, had never believed it himself.

Lyndon Johnson’s confession reveals the fundamental lie at the heart of the JFK investigation. The Warren Commission wasn’t about finding truth. It was about maintaining stability, preventing panic, closing the case. Johnson knew it was inadequate, knew there were international connections, knew Oswald didn’t act alone, but he endorsed it anyway because admitting conspiracy, admitting that Kennedy was killed by forces within or connected to the US government would have destroyed America’s faith in institutions.

Better to lie, better to create a commission that would deliver the right answer, better to suppress evidence and silence witnesses. And when Johnson finally told the truth to Walter Kankite in 1969, he made sure Americans wouldn’t hear it until after he was dead. If this investigation made you question everything you were told about Dallas, hit that like button.
