They Knew. They Watched. They Let It Happen: New JFK Files Rip the Lid Off CIA Secrets

What if the government knew Oswald was dangerous—and just stood there watching?

That’s exactly what these new JFK files suggest.

We’re not talking about your uncle’s Facebook rants or late-night History Channel marathons. We’re talking straight from the National Archives—classified documents that have finally clawed their way into the light of day, and what they reveal is as damning as it is disturbing.

Let me break it down for you.

The CIA Was Watching Oswald. Closely. Obsessively. And Quietly.

They tracked him to Mexico City. Watched him visit Soviet and Cuban embassies. Read his damn mail. They had eyes on him before Dallas was ever a dot on the map.

Specifically, the CIA’s LIENVOY wiretap program in Mexico City picked up Oswald contacting the Soviet embassy. The tapes and transcripts from those interactions? Still partially redacted or "lost."

And yet—crickets. They didn’t loop in the FBI. They didn’t alert the Secret Service. No one warned Kennedy.

Why?

It’s not like Oswald was some nobody. He defected to the Soviet Union. Tried to renounce his citizenship. Came back. Applied for a passport again. And while he was bouncing between embassies, the CIA watched like a hawk… and did nothing.

This wasn’t just incompetence—it feels intentional.

Mail Tampering, Spy Games, and Big Brother Energy

Let’s get one thing straight—the CIA wasn’t just watching Oswald.

They were actively shaping narratives.

We now know about HTLINGUAL, a program that intercepted and analyzed international mail. From 1952 to 1973, they opened over 215,000 letters—including Lee Harvey Oswald’s correspondence with his mother while he was in the Soviet Union.

They didn’t just read these letters. In some cases, they fabricated or altered them. One fake letter, attributed to Oswald, hinted at a plot to assassinate Kennedy—convenient, right?

This wasn’t just about Oswald either. The CIA ran a shadow mail system, monitoring dissidents, journalists, politicians, and even everyday Americans with foreign pen pals.

So if you're wondering how deep the surveillance state goes—this was its beta version.

This is Cold War-era information warfare.
Not on Russia. Not on Cuba.
On us.

2,400 Pages Still Locked Up—and the Case for Multiple Shooters Is Still on the Table

Even after this document dump, the government is still sitting on 2,400 pages related to JFK’s assassination.

Sixty years later.

The 1992 JFK Records Act mandated full release by 2017. Trump delayed it. Biden kicked the can again. And here we are in 2025, and still—no full transparency.

Why?

If it’s just “lone gunman” Oswald, what’s left to protect?

Maybe it’s the eyewitnesses who said they heard gunfire from the grassy knoll. People like Jean Hill, who ran toward the sound while others ducked. Or Sam Holland, a railroad worker who swore shots came from behind the fence, not the book depository.

Even the House Select Committee on Assassinations in 1979—Congress, mind you—concluded Kennedy “was probably assassinated as a result of a conspiracy.”

Still, we’re fed the same old story: one guy, one rifle, one window.

That’s not history. That’s a bedtime story for grownups.

Kennedy vs. The CIA: The War Behind the Curtain

This wasn’t just a bureaucratic turf war.

It was a cold civil war between a President trying to rein in the military-industrial complex and a rogue intelligence community that had been operating like its own shadow government.

After the Bay of Pigs disaster, JFK fired CIA Director Allen Dulles, blaming him for the failed invasion of Cuba. He told his aides:

“I want to splinter the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it to the winds.”

What did the CIA do in return?

They circled the wagons.

And when JFK was assassinated, guess who got a seat on the Warren Commission investigating the murder?

Yep—Allen freaking Dulles.
The same man JFK removed for incompetence and deceit.
Now in charge of telling the American people what really happened.

You can’t make this stuff up.

This Is What “Transparency” Looks Like? How the File Release Became a Dumpster Fire

Let’s talk about the release itself—because how they released these documents tells you everything about how serious they are about “transparency.”

We’re calling this section:

“National Archives or Amateur Hour?”

Here’s a list of greatest hits from the release:

• They forgot to redact full Social Security numbers for living individuals. Identity theft much?

• They released sensitive documents in the middle of the night with no briefings, no context, no accountability.

• They redacted entire paragraphs… but left the titles in. “Foreign Agent Coordination” in bold, followed by a black bar.

It’s either gross negligence or intentional distraction.

And let’s not pretend they “accidentally” redacted eyewitness accounts while leaving dry intel reports untouched. They know what we’re looking for—and they’re making damn sure we don’t find it.

If They’re Still Hiding This Much, What Else Don’t We Know?

The JFK assassination wasn’t just a tragedy—it was a fracture in the American psyche.

It marked the moment people started looking at their own government and thinking, “Are you lying to us?”

Now, in 2025, with new documents on the table, we know more than ever before—and yet the most important pieces are still sealed in vaults, buried in black ink, or conveniently “missing.”

So here’s your move:

👉 Share this article.
👉 Read the files.
👉 And ask yourself: If they’re hiding this much 60 years later, what else have they lied about since?

Because if they could bury the truth about a Presidential assassination…
What the hell else are they capable of?
