April 1961. The CIA-orchestrated Bay of Pigs invasion ended in total disaster. President Kennedy realised the CIA had deliberately withheld information and provided false assurances to force him into authorising direct US military intervention in Cuba. He refused to send the military. In the aftermath, JFK famously told an aide he wanted to "splinter the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it to the winds." In November 1961, he took action. He forced the resignations of the three highest-ranking officials in the CIA:
Director Allen Dulles.
Deputy Director of Plans Richard Bissell.
Deputy Director General Charles Cabell.
He completely decapitated the leadership of the US intelligence establishment. Two years later, in November 1963, JFK travelled to Dallas, Texas. The motorcade route that passed through Dealey Plaza was heavily coordinated with local city officials. The Mayor of Dallas during the President's visit was Earle Cabell. Earle Cabell was the brother of General Charles Cabell — the CIA Deputy Director JFK had publicly fired two years earlier. Furthermore, declassified documents released in 2017 confirmed that Mayor Earle Cabell himself had been a CIA asset since 1956. Allen Dulles — the Director JFK fired — was later appointed to run the Warren Commission investigating JFK's death.
💬 He fired the CIA Deputy Director. Two years later, that man's brother was the Mayor of Dallas overseeing the city during the motorcade. The Mayor was also a CIA asset. It's public record.
