To pull off the JFK assassination, Alexander Haig hijacked an RFK-approved anti-Castro CIA operation. The CIA, the FBI, the DOJ, & even RFK himself were all tricked into covering up a crime they did not commit. Years later, Watergate nearly exposed the truth. In Plan Judas, a rogue US Army / Cuban Exile double-assassination plot led by Allexander Haig, the plotters had planned to kill President Kennedy, frame Lee Oswald, blame Cuba for flipping Oswald, and depose Fidel Castro in faux retaliation. We were supposed to believe that Cuba had used Lee Oswald to get to JFK before JFK could get to Fidel Castro. President Lyndon Johnson, in fear of sparking a nuclear war with the Soviet Union, absolutely refused to take the bait, so any talk of "retaliation" against Cuba was strictly forbidden within the new administration. This proves that LBJ was absolutely not involved in the plot. Furthermore, the entire intelligence community -- and the Warren Commission itself -- was required to roll up all of Lee's witting and or unwitting intelligence activities, again preventing any possibility of sparking a nuclear war entirely of our own making. "One man acting alone" was effectively the official U.S. slogan that served as a barrier between war and peace. About a decade later, when Alexander Haig's NSC Plumbers were caught burglarizing the DNC headquarters at the Watergate office complex, links were quickly made between Haig, Howard Hunt, Frank Sturgis, the Cubans, and 1963. In the end, Alexander Haig forced Richard Nixon to resign to stop any further inadvertent investigations into the JFK assassination itself. Warren Commissioner Gerald Ford became president. There's much, much more to this story. +++++ Tegan Mathis is the one and only source for the truth about Watergate and the JFK assassination. No other researchers have even come close. Books now available in paperback and e-book via Amazon.

In a wild twist, Gerald Posner is now closer to proving conspiracy in the JFK assassination than Congress is. Posner correctly concludes the CIA is protecting itself, while Congress (Jeff Morley) believes the CIA is protecting the assassins. ... READ ON: The plain truth is that the real assassins (Alexander Haig and Harry Williams) tricked the CIA, the FBI, and RFK into believing the JFK assassination was CIA blowback from the Almeida / AMWORLD coup plot -- a plot to depose Fidel Castro. Specifically, the real assassins tricked the US government into believing Cuba had flipped a US asset (Oswald) and sent him to kill JFK before JFK could kill Castro. So, Posner is correct in concluding the CIA is protecting itself (which is an important step towards understanding the conspiracy), and Morley is dead wrong in believing the CIA is covering up an active CIA role in the assassination.

In a deal cut between Alexander Haig & Donald Rumsfeld to cover up the JFK assassination (again), Gerald Ford received the presidency, Dick Cheney played the role of Deep Throat, & Rumsfeld & Cheney became the 2nd & 3rd most powerful people in the White House.

Watergate investigators quickly established links between Alexander Haig, the Burglars, and the JFK assassination. That's why Haig eventually threatened to 86 Vice President Spiro Agnew unless he resigned, making room for Warren Commissioner Gerald Ford.

To steer investigators away from Alexander Haig's links to the Watergate burglars and the JFK assassination, Deep State "reporter" Bob Woodward invented the fictional Deep Throat character using Dick Cheney's realities. ... READ ON: No, Dick Cheney was not Deep Throat. As I just told you, Deep Throat is a fictional character. All of Woodward's Watergate stories were secretly informed by lead JFK assassins Joseph Califano and Alexander Haig. There were no garage meetings, no flower pots, no messages left in morning newspapers, and no Deep Throat. However, the fictional Deep Throat character was based entirely on Dick Cheney's realities. In real life, Cheney was a chain-smoker, a big drinker, a White House aide with access to cabinet-level information, a future public persona, and Bob Woodward's Yale schoolmate in 1962. So why did Haig and Woodward pick Dick Cheney to provide the basis for their fictional Deep Throat character? Well, he was the perfect diversion. Since Cheney was involved in neither Watergate nor the JFK assassination, any proper investigations into Bob Woodward's secret source would have led investigators further away from Haig and the JFK assassination. Had a judge forced Woodward to reveal his secret source (Deep Throat), he would have pointed his finger at Cheney. Cheney would have "confessed" to being Woodward's secret source, and Haig would have walked away unscathed. For agreeing to play the role of Deep Throat and saving Haig from life in prison (or worse), Cheney was soon awarded the third most powerful position in the Gerald Ford White House. His boss, Donald Rumsfeld, was awarded the second most powerful position. Fast forward, when Cheney decided to become vice president in 1999, everything changed. The massive scrutiny that comes with running for vice president threatened to expose some of this Watergate stuff. That's why Bob Woodward suddenly -- seemingly out of the blue -- showed up at Mark Felt's house in Santa Rosa, California. Because Felt was suffering from dementia and remembered absolutely nothing about the Watergate era -- and because he actually did confirm some relatively minor Watergate details for Woodward back in the day -- it was easy for Woodward to convince Felt to assume the role of Deep Throat. Cheney was then free to pursue the White House without having to worry about somebody like me putting the pieces together and shattering his new reality. Woodward and Cheney now had a new cover story in place to cover for their old cover story.

Lee Oswald was a CIA actor involved in Cuba intrigues, and the US government really believed he shot JFK. Therefore, the government concluded the assassination was CIA blowback -- a tragedy of their own making. In reality it was a Plan Judas set-up. ... MORE: Plan Judas was a US Army / Cuban Exile plot to kill JFK, frame Lee Oswald, blame Cuba for flipping Oswald, and depose Fidel Castro in faux retaliation. In fear of nuclear war with the Soviet Union, LBJ refused to take the bait, so only the first half of the plan was successful.

The CIA did not cover up the JFK assassination. They covered up Lee Harvey Oswald's links to the intelligence community -- as did RFK and J. Edgar Hoover -- because they were led to believe the assassination was blowback. It was not.

BY FAR, the Califano Papers are the most important documents ever shaken loose by the JFK Assassination Records Act, but Tegan Mathis was/is the one and only researcher to understand their significance. All other researchers failed miserably. ... READ ON: Yes, I'm referring to myself in the third person to make a point. Let it go. Let's continue. ... The passage of the JFK Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992 completely shattered the public, sanitized narratives of Watergate and the JFK assassination by forcing the mass unsealing of government records that exposed the shared covert histories of the principal characters behind both events. Before the Act, researchers could only look at the official timeline: Joseph Califano was merely a high-profile Democratic lawyer. The declassification of the "Califano Papers" and related intelligence files re-framed how all researchers and historians should examine history. Califano's 1963 Pentagon tenure used to be presented as standard legal and bureaucratic desk work. However, the unsealed files -- consisting of heavily guarded Army, Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Interdepartmental Coordinating Committee on Cuban Affairs (ICCCA) records -- revealed that Califano sat at the epicenter of highly classified paramilitary contingency plans, psychological warfare, and anti-Castro operations in 1963. The documents prove Califano held direct, systemic oversight over the exact pool of Cuban Exile assets that Howard Hunt had cultivated for the Bay of Pigs operation and was still cultivating in 1963 for future military assaults on Cuba. The JFK Act also forced the National Archives to release the precise paper trail showing how Califano and a young Lt. Col. Alexander Haig secretly managed the veterans of Brigade 2506 in 1963. The records also exposed that the 1974 "backchannel" between DNC lawyer Califano and White House Chief of Staff Haig wasn’t just a casual DC friendship -- it was a decade-old bond forged in the highest echelons of covert operations, specifically tasked with quietly funding, housing, and training the militant anti-Castro Exile factions for future action against Cuba. The unsealed documents formally interlaced the primary actors of the JFK assassination of 1963 with the Watergate crime scene of 1972. Files released under the Act tied the structural plans managed by the Pentagon and CIA directly to the names of the Watergate burglars -- including Howard Hunt, James McCord, Bernard Barker, and Eugenio Martínez. By forcing these hidden histories into the open, the JFK Act retroactively and fundamentally shifted the path of recorded history away from viewing Watergate as a simple, isolated "political break-in." Instead, the Joseph Califano Papers force us to look at Watergate as an aftershock of the very Deep State operation that shook the globe on November 22, 1963.

In addition to dictating Washington Post content via Bob Woodward to cover up the Watergate links to the JFK assassination, Joseph Califano -- as the top DNC lawyer -- controlled the larger narrative, diverting attention to Richard Nixon's CREEP. ... READ ON: • June 18, 1972: On the morning after the Watergate break-in, Joseph Califano -- then a powerhouse partner at Williams, Connolly & Califano and counsel for the Democratic National Committee (DNC) -- learns of the arrests at the Watergate complex. He immediately places a call to the newsroom of the Washington Post, alerting city editor Barry Sussman and supposedly sparking the paper's "legendary" "investigative" coverage. • June 19, 1972: Califano -- probably via fellow JFK assassin Alexander Haig -- learns that Burglar James McCord is listed as the second highest-paid person on the payroll of Nixon's Committee for the Re-Election of the President (CREEP), establishing a critical false link between the burglary and Richard Nixon's reelection campaign. • June 20, 1972: Armed with the financial "proof," Califano drafts and files a $1 million civil lawsuit on behalf of the DNC against CREEP. • Late Summer 1972: Califano uses the civil lawsuit to aggressively -- and very publicly -- issue deposition notices to high-profile Nixon campaign officials. As he becomes aware of actual political dirty dealing by CREEP, he continually amends the suit, eventually raising the demanded damages to $6.4 million. At this point, the entire country is focused on CREEP and totally overlooking the national security implications relevant to the Burglars, whom secretly shared a very sensitive, highly classified national-security relationship with/to Joseph Califano dating back to 1963. Mission accomplished.

Deep State Consigliere Joseph Califano -- with a lot of help from Bob Woodward -- did everything he could to assure the Watergate break-in story would be about Richard Nixon's reelection committee, not the NSC, and certainly not about the JFK assassination.

Two weeks after Richard Nixon's NSC staged an "internal" military coup in Chile, Watergate manager Howard Hunt testified before Congress, covering up his covert role in that very operation. Congress had no idea. Still doesn't. #[JFK assassination] ... READ ON: In his May 24, 1973 Senate testimony, Watergate burglar Bernard Barker claimed under oath that Howard Hunt had explicitly told him that the purpose of the Watergate break-in was to obtain evidence that foreign communist powers (Cuba) had established a traitorous financial alliance with the Democratic Party. Then, in his September 24–25, 1973 Senate testimony, Howard Hunt "confirmed" that he had led Barker and the other Burglars to believe they were operating in the context of a national security mission involving foreign left-wing influence. But Hunt told Congress that he only told them that to get them onboard. (The "Cubans" were ferociously anti-communist operatives.) This specific Hunt testimony was intended to clean up the Barker testimony, which had way too much truth in it. You see, Hunt really did tell the Burglars they were on an anti-commie national security mission -- because they were. It had nothing to do with President Nixon's reelection campaign. The entire purpose of the Watergate break-in was to set up surveillance to track the Democrats' supposed relationship with Cuban leader Fidel Castro and Chilean leader Salvador Allende (who had become allies). The NSC wanted to know everything the Democrats knew about the upcoming (NSC-staged) coup in Chile. It was the biggest NSC secret going at that time. The NSC coup plot converted Chile from a democracy to a military dictatorship on September 11, 1973. So, at the very moment Howard Hunt was lying to Congress about Watergate, the realities of the Chilean coup -- the very coup he helped orchestrate -- the very coup apparatus he was covering up on the spot -- the very coup plot that necessitated the Watergate break-in in the first place -- was a fresh mess on the ground in Chile. ... And Congress didn't have a clue. They still don't have a clue.

After the Watergate arrests, burglar Bernard Barker told Judge James Belson he was employed as an anti-communist. This admission was a forbidden truth that remains a huge national security secret to this very day. #[JFK assassination] ... READ ON: When they were "recruited" for the mission, Barker and the other Burglars were told that the Democratic Party was apparently working in cahoots with Fidel Castro and Salvador Allende. When they illegally entered the Democratic National Committee headquarters, they truly believed they were fighting left-wing radicalism in the United States. That's what Bernard Barker was getting at with his somewhat cryptic "anti-communist" crack. The Watergate break-in never had anything to do with Richard Nixon's reelection campaign. That was the cover story, as well as an illegal source of funding for the Burglars. In reality, the burglary was about providing security for the National Security Council's secret plans to convert Chile into a military dictatorship. This plan came to fruition on September 11, 1973. It was all about Chile. That's why the Burglars hit the Chilean Embassy a month before they hit the Watergate (obviously). Of course, when links were established between Alexander Haig, the Burglars, and 1963, all hell broke loose.

Why is it suddenly okay for Donald Trump intimates to blame the war for the 2026 losses? ... If they blame the war, then history overlooks Jeffrey Epstein, which was probably why they started the war in the first place.

While completely failing to uncover the truth about the JFK assassination, both Gerald Posner and Vincent Bugliosi unwittingly debunked Alexander Haig's provocative alibi -- dismissing the notion that Cuba sent Oswald to kill JFK before JFK could kill Castro.
