Representative Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.), leading the Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, said that the latest declassified documents concerning President John F. Kennedy’s assassination suggest he sought assistance from the Soviet Union to address rogue elements within the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) prior to his untimely death.
The declassification of approximately 80,000 pages related to the 1963 assassination has reignited debates over the circumstances surrounding Kennedy’s death.
The first batch of the declassified files includes a 1967 memo detailing claims by former U.S. Army intelligence officer Gary Underhill, who alleged that a “small clique within the CIA” was involved in Kennedy’s assassination.
Underhill reportedly fled Washington, D.C., in a state of agitation the day after the assassination, expressing fears for his life and suggesting that the CIA clique was engaged in illicit activities, including gun-running and narcotics trafficking.
He believed Kennedy had discovered these operations and was killed before he could expose them. Underhill was found dead six months later under suspicious circumstances, with the coroner ruling it a suicide.
Newly released JFK files tell a story about how Gary Underhill, who worked for the CIA, was found dead after he revealed to friends that the CIA was responsible for JFK’s assassination.

Speaking with Benny Johnson, Rep. Luna suggested that the newly released JFK files revealed the former president was actively seeking Russia’s help in identifying rogue CIA agents just before he was murdered in Dallas.
Rep. Luna also made it clear that these revelations confirm what many Americans have long suspected: the Warren Commission’s findings were a carefully orchestrated deception designed to protect those truly responsible.
Benny Johnson:
So this is something that I found particularly fascinating with these documents—that there is predictive programming inside multiple documents. Oswald will be killed in custody. Oswald will do the killing. “We will get JFK one way or another.” There are various entities—whether it’s the state of Israel, Cuba, or Russia—that are interested in the killing of JFK. And there seems to be, if anything, an environment of allowance, perhaps, with the CIA for this to happen.I’m wondering—one, if your takeaway is that there isn’t a smoking gun. The document doesn’t say, “Actually, CIA agent 123-6571, he’s the one who pulled the trigger.” But what you’re seeing here is a mosaic that’s created: “Here are all the enemies of JFK. We know their intentions are to hurt JFK, and we’re going to send him traveling at a very slow speed right through downtown, with skyscrapers in the back of an open-air limousine.”
Rep. Anna Paulina:
Well, also, if I could just point out—you actually have the document up right now that admits Dr. King is going to be killed as well.What I’m finding is confirmation of many people’s concerns—that, at the time, intelligence agencies were operating in the shadows and, as you saw, were a rogue entity. When I made that first admission, Benny, saying that I believe there were multiple shooters, I actually got calls from people saying, “Where are you finding this evidence? You haven’t seen the documents yet.” I said, “I’m going based on witness testimony.”
I’m not just talking about one or two or three witnesses here. We’re talking about upwards of 15-plus witnesses—not to mention that the Warren Commission, which was initially set up by Congress to investigate the assassination of JFK, knowingly omitted information that would have been considered evidence.
So, I’m not a criminal investigator, but I can put two and two together. What I can tell you is that when you have a congressional committee failing to admit evidence and, in addition, creating a narrative—which we now know, with modern technology and witness testimony, was faulty—the “magic bullet” theory collapses.
The fact is, we have basically everything we could have ever imagined—wanted and more. We are going to be able to answer those questions.
But again, Benny, looking back at what happened, I also found in one of the documents yesterday—as I was going through this with the American people, and you saw in real-time, all these bombshells coming out on X—that JFK allegedly asked the leader of Russia for information on rogue CIA agents. Isn’t it interesting that he was inquiring about this and then, obviously, he ends up assassinated?
Look, we have a lot to go through. There are thousands upon thousands of documents, but we are targeting 20 key documents that, through working with our team and experts who have studied the JFK assassination for decades, we believe can provide a better picture and context for the American people.
I hope that the hearing we have on the second will at least help reset the historical narrative on John F. Kennedy with the facts—and then let the American people decide.
