Ask HN: Did someone dig into the JFK files?

32 pointsby ta1265342118 days ago
I&#x27;m wondering:<p>Did someone already dig into the released JFK files? Or are there any projects?<p>Today, in days of AI, this should be somehow much more easy &amp; less time consuming?

It is like when someone is being sued in court and claims in the press that they have turned over X thousands of pages of documents.<p>When you really dig into those documents you find 90%+ of them are completely irrelevant (old phone books, Chinese takeout menus, etc.) and that the few important ones that would actually shed light on the case, are missing.

Ragie (a RAG company) published an interactive chatbot that lets you ask questions about the JFK files. It’s pretty interesting, they had to do a lot of OCR on old docs to get it to a usable state.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;chat.ragie.ai&#x2F;o&#x2F;jfk-files" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;chat.ragie.ai&#x2F;o&#x2F;jfk-files</a>

It predates the files release by about ten years but I found Robert Cairo&#x27;s latest book on LBJ, &#x27;The Passage of Power&#x27; pretty enlightening on the coverup (not the crime).

Anything suprising would be redacted anyway.

The expert Chad Nagle did and found that 2 pages were missing. And drove to the archives to get those 2 missing pages, which revealed one of the JFK shooters as a Cuban professional hit man. Who took orders from the CIA.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;jfkfacts.substack.com&#x2F;p&#x2F;from-the-new-jfk-files-fbi-report?utm_campaign=email-post&amp;r=92i5v&amp;utm_source=substack&amp;utm_medium=email" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;jfkfacts.substack.com&#x2F;p&#x2F;from-the-new-jfk-files-fbi-r...</a>

Jefferson Morley is a JFK conspiracy guy and I listened to a podcast where he discussed what was released and to badly summarize a conversation I listened to on a bike trainer a month ago: nothing really impactful regarding the assassination, but some interesting (shitty) details about the CIA. He has a newsletter you can look up that I’m sure goes into great detail.

Mostly they just revealed some CIA intel programs and doxxed some people.
