Former Congressman and three-time presidential candidate Dr. Ron Paul accused the Central Intelligence Agency of murdering President John F. Kennedy in 1963 during his recent appearance on the “Tim Pool IRL” live podcast.
Paul called the Kennedy assassination a “coup” against the American Republic by certain elements of the U.S. government in a discussion about the realities of the deep state’s impact on modern U.S. history.
“I’m arguing the case that we’re in the middle of it and moving right along, that the revolution has been fought, there’s been a coup, we don’t have any resemblance to a government that believes in a Republic, we don’t have honest money, we don’t have integrity,” Paul said.
Paul continued, “But I do believe there has been a coup, and it’s been taken over, and if I want to, and if I can I want to just put the date in my mind, and anybody could pick probably any date in the last 100 years, but I have picked November 22nd 1963. That was the day Kennedy was murdered by our government, you know, by the CIA.”

Paul discussed a number of topics, ranging from the Russian “special military operation” in Ukraine and its potential to spark a new world war, the current state of the economy, the importance of sound currency, and the assassination of the 35th President of the United States during a rare out-of-studio appearance earlier this week.
Once nicknamed “Dr. No” in Congress for voting down any legislation he did not consider explicitly called for by the U.S. Constitution, Paul represented Texas in the U.S. House for varying terms from the 1970s until he retired from politics in 2013.
He ran for President in 1988, having secured the Libertarian Party ticket, and twice more in 2008 and 2012, when he challenged John McCain and Mitt Romney respectively.
The entire interview is available on YouTube:
In recent months, the official narrative of Kennedy’s death has been challenged by some conservative media pundits and political experts after Fox News host Tucker Carlson revealed that a source “deeply familiar” with decades-long hidden CIA documents informed him that the elusive agency was involved with the president’s killing.
Reacting to Carlson’s segment in a tweet that amassed a staggering 5.5 million views, Robert F. Kennedy Jr, the nephew of President Kennedy and current 2024 Democratic candidate for president, called it “The most courageous newscast in 60 years.”
The most courageous newscast in 60 years. The CIA’s murder of my uncle was a successful coup d'état from which our democracy has never recovered. @TuckerCarlson https://t.co/qJ1sUdhe4t

“The CIA’s murder of my uncle was a successful coup d’etat from which our democracy has never recovered,” Kennedy wrote.
In the weeks following Carlson’s segment, longtime Republican political operative Roger Stone emphasized recently resurfaced tapes of 37th President Richard Nixon suggest that the former leader of the free world knew that the CIA had killed the president.
“The whole ‘who shot John’ [JFK] thing, is Eisenhower to blame? Is Johnson to blame? Is Kennedy to blame? Is Nixon to blame? Et cetera … may become, may become, not by me, but may become a very, very vigorous issue,” Nixon said in the tapes.
“If it does, uh, I need to know what is necessary to protect our inquiries, the intelligence gathering, and the ‘Dirty Tricks Department.’ And I will protect it. Hey listen, I’ve done more than my share of lying to protect it. I will go, I believe it’s totally right to do it.”
“There it is,” Stone exclaimed. “Nixon telling the CIA Director that he knows the agency was involved in the murder of JFK.”
There it is. Nixon telling the CIA Director that he knows the agency was involved in the murder of JFK. https://t.co/l22JqUKDCz
