JFK ASSASSINATION
President Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas on November 22, 1963

On November 22, 1963 President John F Kennedy was infamously assassinated as he rode in an open convertible through Dallas, Texas.

He was killed just months after his son died just two days after he was born.

Of all the events in US history, the death has probably spawned more conspiracy theories than any other.

However, the official explanation is that Lee Harvey Oswald was the sole gunman

Former US Marine Oswald was a proud communist, who briefly defected to the USSR, and was a supporter of Cuban leader Fidel Castro.

He was allegedly motivated to kill the President by Kennedy’s hard line approach to Cuba including a botched invasion in 1961 known as the Bay of Pigs.

Robert Kennedy was then assassinated in Los Angeles on June 5, 1968
Five years after JFK's death, his younger brother Robert was assassinated after winning the California Democratic primary.

One June 5, 1968 he was shot and mortally wounded shortly after midnight at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles.

The assassin was later named as Palestinian Sirhan Sirhan - who was apprehended immediately after opening fire with a .22 pistol.

When detectives searched his home they found a chilling diary with the words 'RFK must die' written over and over again.

CHAPPAQUIDDICK

A frogman attempts to raise Edward Kennedy's car eight hours after it plunged into pond
The Chappaquiddick incident refers to a bizarre car crash that occurred in Massachusetts on July 19, 1969.

The late-night accident was caused by Senator Ted Kennedy's negligence and resulted in the death of his 28-year-old passenger Mary Jo Kopechne

According to Kennedy's testimony, he accidentally drove his car off the one-lane bridge and into the tide-swept Poucha Pond.

He swam free, left the scene, and did not report the accident to the police for ten hours; Kopechne died inside the fully submerged car.

The story became global news and is believed to have influenced Kennedy's decision not to campaign for President in 1972 and 1976.

OVERDOSE DEATH

David (seen here on his mum's lap) died of a drug overdose in a hotel aged 28
David Kennedy was the fourth child of Robert F Kennedy and aged just 12 when he watched his dad gunned down on live TV.

As a child, he was shy, introverted and sensitive, and shared a particularly strong bond with his father.

His father's shocking assassination left a deep emotional scar on young David and he turned to drugs in his early teens.

By 1984 he was dead aged 28 after overdosing on cocaine, Demerol and Mellaril in a Palm Beach hotel room.

I believe we can trace the begging of this curse to the botched lobotomy given to Rosemary Kennedy. It's the curse of Rosemary who was denied a normal life by her father.

I have no sympathy for the Kennedy family. I am sorry that this happened but karma is a bitch!

If any family deserves heartache over and over it is this one.

Have done more bad for than good, bunch of scumbags...

Maeve is a major deep stater and one of the Democrat's greatest fundraisers. CNN just portrayed her as "a PTA president, soccer mom, and marathon runner" to cut all ties to her political affiliations which include heavy WHO ties, was at DHHS with Obama, and worked several times in lead roles for Dianne Feinstein (you know, that broad that just made a bunch of millions dumping stock last month). oh, and her mom is the Lt Governor of Maryland and she's Andrew Cuomo's niece by marriage but remember above all she was

"a PTA president, soccer mom, and marathon runner" ;)
