RFK Jr. 's Views on JFK's Assassination: Are They Heading to the White House?

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. , who was recently selected by President-elect Donald Trump to be the Health Secretary, has been pushing for his daughter-in-law, Amaryllis Fox Kennedy, to get a job at the CIA. The reason? He believes that the CIA was involved in the assassination of his uncle, President John F. Kennedy, in 1963. This is one of the many conspiracy theories that RFK Jr. is known for. His beliefs go against the official findings of the Warren Commission, which blamed a lone gunman, Lee Harvey Oswald. RFK Jr. thinks that there's strong evidence that the CIA also played a role in the killing of his father, Robert F. Kennedy, in 1968. Despite these unorthodox views, Trump seems to be embracing them. RFK Jr. has become a key figure in Trump's transition team. He's been seen with Trump at major events, like the ringing of the New York Stock Exchange bell. The possibility of Amaryllis Fox Kennedy joining the CIA is controversial for several reasons. Not only does it involve a family member, but she also wrote a memoir about her CIA work without official clearance. Some lawmakers and former intelligence officials are opposed to her appointment. These unusual beliefs haven't stopped Trump from considering RFK Jr. 's views. Trump himself has promised to release more classified files on the JFK assassination. This could give more credence to RFK Jr. 's theories. It's clear that Trump is willing to listen to unconventional ideas, but only time will tell how much influence RFK Jr. 's views will have in the White House.
