RFK Jr. tells Tucker he would serve as Trump’s CIA director if asked

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said it’s unlikely that he would receive Senate confirmation because committee members are ‘just safeguarding that (CIA) directorship and I would be very, very dangerous for those committees.’

Former presidential candidate turned Donald Trump supporter Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Tucker Carlson this week that he would definitely serve as the director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).

“If you were asked, would you run it?” Carlson asked.

“Yes, I would,” Kennedy replied. “But I would never get Senate confirmation.”

 

Kennedy made major news last week when just one day after the Democratic National Convention he endorsed the former president in his bid for the Oval Office.

Kennedy was given a hero’s welcome by Trump at a rally in Arizona, during which he spoke about the need to end childhood illnesses and the “chronic disease epidemic” in America.

 

Kennedy’s interview with Carlson indicates he has a sober grasp of the power the Deep State has over U.S. politics.

“As you know, the intelligence (agencies) are protected by very, very powerful committees in the Senate and the House,” Kennedy remarked. “And the people who serve on those committees … they’re just safeguarding that (CIA) directorship and I would be very, very dangerous for those committees.”

The pair additionally spoke about other areas of agreement between Kennedy and President Trump as well, in particular Trump’s promise to establish a commission to declassify the remaining documents pertaining to President John F. Kennedy’s assassination in 1963.

“I think everyone at this point knows the truth, which is the CIA is implicated in that. Those documents protect (the) CIA, maybe among others,” Carlson said.

“It’s odd that they’ve not allowed them to be released,” Kennedy replied. “It clearly is to protect the institution … and that’s wrong.”

Both Kennedy and Carlson noted that it was Mike Pompeo, a neocon who served as Trump’s CIA director in 2017-2018 who pressured Trump to not declassify those documents while he was in office for his first term.

While a formal role in Trump’s second administration has not been announced, Kennedy revealed that he is working on policy issues with the campaign at the moment and that if Trump wins he will be helping with the transition team to select persons who will run the government.

During an appearance on the Shawn Ryan Show podcast this week, Trump admitted that when he first won in 2016, he didn’t really know who to hire and that this time around he would select different people to fill key positions.

“I was a New York person, not a Washington, D.C. person,” he said. “In retrospect, I also picked some people I wouldn’t have picked. Now I know the smart ones, the dumb ones, the weak ones, the solid ones.”

Kennedy also said that he believes a historic political realignment is taking place as the Democratic Party has become the party of war and censorship ushering in a “corrupt” merger between state and corporate power.

On Monday, former Democratic Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard followed in Kennedy’s footsteps and endorsed Trump at a rally for the National Guard Association in Detroit. Gabbard’s defection is significant in that she was a rising star on the political left not long ago, having served as vice chair of the Democratic National Party from 2013 until 2016. She resigned from that position in disgust after the presidential primary was rigged to ensure Hillary Clinton and not Bernie Sanders would be the nominee.

Head of JFK assassination files task force: ‘I believe there were two shooters’

Published on February 17, 2025

From LifeSiteNews

By Frank Wright

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, head of the new House Oversight Task Force on Declassification, called the official narrative of the JFK assassination ‘faulty’ and said she believes ‘there were two shooters.’

On January 23 President Donald Trump signed an executive order to declassify and release all records of the assassinations of former President John F. Kennedy, former U.S. Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, and Dr. Martin Luther King.

Fulfilling a promise initially made in his first presidential term and repeated ahead of his second, Donald Trump has issued an order “providing Americans the truth after six decades of secrecy.”

Trump’s interim Director of National Intelligence Lora Shiao was ordered to “present a plan within 15 days for the full and complete release of all John F. Kennedy assassination records…”

Following this directive, the FBI has revealed the existence of thousands more “previously unknown” files relating to the JFK assassination. As Fox News reported on February 10:

“The FBI conducted a new records search pursuant to President Trump’s Executive Order issued on January 23, 2025, regarding the declassification of the assassination files of JFK, RFK, and MLK. The search resulted in approximately 2400 newly inventoried and digitized records that were previously unrecognized as related to the JFK assassination case file…”

Trump’s nominees on a ‘glide path’

In a Wednesday Senate vote Tulsi Gabbard is expected to be confirmed as permanent National Intelligence chief – described as the principal advisor to the president. She will oversee this process when confirmed.

Trump also seeks to install Kash Patel as the new head of the FBI. Patel has promised to publish the client list of notorious Mossad-linked sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein on the first day of his tenure.

In addition, he intends to publish documents detailing “Russiagate” and all information relating to the origins of COVID-19.

Democrats have alleged Patel is “secretly overseeing a purge of the FBI” before his appointment has been confirmed. Senator Adam Schiff is now charging Patel with perjury.

Could this be related to what Patel says about Adam Schiff here?

“Adam Schiff is the single most responsible person for spreading disinformation on Russiagate: saying he had evidence Donald Trump colluded with Russia.”

Patel is also expected to be approved by the Republican-majority senate, with the process leading to his Thursday confirmation hearing described as a “glide path” by the scandal-hit outlet Politico. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. also expects to be appointed Health and Human Services chief following his nomination vote.

New 9/11, assassination, COVID investgations

In an additional move, the Trump administration has seen the creation of the House Oversight Task Force on Declassification.

Announced by its new leader, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, the task force will not be restricted to the oversight of publishing formerly classified files.

Luna said it would be conducting new investigations into 9/11, the JFK, RFK, and MLK assassinations, as well as the “origins of COVID-19,” the Jeffrey Epstein case, and unidentified aerial and subsea objects known as “UAPs” and “USOs.”

 

As independent journalist Michael Shellenberger pointed out in the tweet above, “For decades, presidents said they told us everything they could about Covid, JFK, Epstein, UAPs and more. They lied.”

The first hearing is “set for March,” Luna announced, describing her task force as a “beacon of bipartisanship” with the participation of both Republicans and Democrats.

A break with the past

Luna stressed that this was a complete break with the past, saying this will not be “a task force that makes bold promises only to fade into irrelevance or send strongly worded letters.”

“This will be a relentless pursuit of truth and transparency and will not stop until the American people have the answers they deserve.”

Luna presented a complete shift in how the U.S. government sees its relation to governed.

“We have been treated like children for too long and kept in the dark by those we elected to serve us.”

Luna’s remarks may serve as a statement of the Trump administration’s vision for restoring America. She argued, “If we are to endure as a nation, we must restore trust – trust through transparency.”

Marking a shift from the manufacture of public opinion by the state sponsorship of news and mass culture, Luna continued, “The American people must be trusted to think for themselves, to form their own judgments from the truth they are entitled to know.”

Official verdict on JFK ‘faulty’: ‘I believe there were two shooters’

Luna also announced Tuesday night that “based on what I have seen so far” of the unreleased JFK files, “I believe there were two shooters” involved in the assassination of President Kennedy. Luna described the official verdict of a “single bullet theory” as “faulty.”

The revelations from the new JFK files have already begun. What they and the other disclosures contain will be released to inform a new vision of the national interest. The Trump administration is not only saying it is keeping its promises to Americans, but also announcing it wishes to govern in the open and will trust the public to make its own mind up, in place of manufacturing public opinion for political ends.

Mike Benz Exposes How USAID Funds State-Sponsored Hit Pieces to Crush Political Opponents

Published on February 17, 2025

USAID wasn’t just funding biased reporting. They were actively reshaping foreign governments.

Former State Department official Mike Benz, an expert on cyber policy, censorship, and information warfare, appeared on The Joe Rogan Experience Wednesday and dropped jaw-dropping insights into USAID’s absurd abuse of US tax dollars.

According to Benz, USAID has been funneling taxpayer dollars into so-called investigative journalism, but the real goal isn’t transparency—it is control.

“Everything they do is a hit piece about an instance of corruption that can be used by prosecutors in the area to arrest the political opponents of the State Department,” Benz explained.

USAID’s program, officially called Strengthening Transparency and Accountability through Investigative Reporting, claims to promote a free press. But Benz revealed its true purpose is to ruin people’s lives and go after political targets in order to change the policies of foreign governments from the inside.

For a mere investment of $20 million, USAID’s state-sponsored hit pieces were able to:

• Generate at least $4.5 billion in fines against targets of these hit pieces.

• Influence over 548 policy changes across foreign governments and private sectors.

USAID justified these programs under the term “capacity building,” which Benz warned is a red flag. “Now, this is the phrase everybody has to know. Capacity building is what this is all built under. That means pumping up the Blob’s assets,” he explained.

And USAID wasn’t just funding biased reporting. They were actively reshaping foreign governments. Benz revealed 548 policy changes resulted from these state-sponsored media attacks, which he suggested were for the “furtherance of USAID’s or the State Department’s foreign policy goals.”

Think about what that means. The U.S. government is secretly funding media outlets to push narratives, destroy political opponents, and manipulate foreign policy, all under the guise of investigative journalism.

The question is – if they’re doing this overseas, how much of it is happening at home?
