JFK and the Federal Reserve - A Historical Perspective
#1
Louis T. McFadden (1876-1936), a Republican, and U.S. Representative from Pennsylvania, a banker, and Chairman of the House Banking and Currency Committee, tried to get rid of the Federal Reserve System. He was shot at, and poisoned at a banquet where he was the only victim. His biography on Wikipedia appears below:

This is his speech to the House of Representatives in 1932:

Franklin Delano Roosevelt was also critical of the Federal Reserve System, as was John F. Kennedy, who issued an Executive Order that replaced government-printed Federal Reserve Notes with interest-free "United States Notes." Wall Street bankers participated in the attempt to overthrow President Roosevelt in 1933-34, and President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas five months after he issued his Executive Order No.11110 on June 4, 1963.
