Len Osanic is doing a review of the HSCA on his show. So I decided to complement that with this PP presentation I did at Lancer in 2013.
The HSCA went to Hades in a hand basket. And its odd that so few people do not realize the resemblance to what happened to Garrison. Although Chris Sharrett did at the time, when Sprague was getting pilloried in the press.
The other parallel is what happened to Judge Joe Brown in Memphis on the King case. And in a related area, Gary Webb on the CIA and drugs.
Anyway, I again thank Al Rossi for this, his technical skills are superb.

A clear intent on the behalf of CIA to deceive.
Criminal obstruction.

Jim, wasn't the Congressional Black Caucus also important in getting the HSCA launched, because of their desire to reopen the MLK case (due to the recent revelations about Hoover and the FBI)?

That may be accurate. But Downing did not tell me that in my interview with him.

Anyway, I again thank Al Rossi for this, his technical skills are superb. Jim, I am on slide 25, can you clarify a point. I have the understanding that the CIA from it's inception had been granted immunity from prosecution for perjury citing national security to trump all other governmental powers. The fact that Phillips lied or did not disclose information could have no ramifications other than the realization that the CIA was guilty by association. The HSCA had no power over the CIA, nor does any other agency or branch of the government. The White House published the fact that the CIA could no longer be controlled even by the President, shortly before KENNEDY was assassinated.
Jim, thank you for sharing the presentation.

I re-watched Three Days of the Condor yesterday (1975 - 40 years ago!), and was struck by how that film probably wouldn't get made today. How many CIAs are there? What are they really up to? Who is really in control? Can you trust anyone? Is the NYT really going to print that story and save you, Robert Redford? Probably not.

All The President's Men would be more on-topic.
Yeah, they don't need to do the things they did in the movie because the new government and media makes it unnecessary.
Things are much easier now that you have a president like Obama being compliant with CIA wishes in advance.

I don't know where you got that information.
First of all, Helms was found guilty of perjury about Chile.
Lawrence Walsh indicted at least two CIA higher ups during the Iran Contra scandal.
The HSCA was not actually going to do the indictment. They prepared the indictments for the Justice Department.
And I disagree with you about the ramifications. if Phillips lied about Oswald and the survival of the tapes, and the FBI said the tapes did survive and are not Oswald, then that provides a reason for Phillips to lie. Because someone was faking Oswald's voice on the tapes and he tried to cover this up.
That had the potential to unravel the whole paper mache deception the CIA had going about Oswald in Mexico which, as David Josephs is showing at CTKA, was very likely compete fiction.
To do that seven weeks in advance of the murder of JFK, and then unleash it on the day of the assassination as a cover story, I mean does it get any more incriminating than that?

The CIA was struggling to keep the lid on the Oswald impersonator who traveled to Mexico City to interfere with the activities of Lee Harvey Oswald in that city. This activity mirrored the interference Oswald encountered upon his arrival in Moscow.
In both cases an individual listing their height as 5' 11'', having a lighter color eye on their right side and an excessive droop of their right shoulder traveled on a passport bearing the name of Lee Harvey Oswald.
By contrast, Lee Harvey Oswald stood 5' 9'' tall, had eyes of matching colors and shoulders with matching and normal droops.
Perhaps this impersonator traveled for the CIA.

Its much worse than that.
As David Phillips stated, when it was all said and done, there would be no proof that Oswald ever visited the Russian embassy.
As the Lopez Report showed in abundance, by way of a chart, there was also no proof that Oswald called the embassy.
There are no pictures, and the tapes depict a guy speaking broken Russian. Oswald spoke good Russian by the time he left the USA for Russia according to Rosaleen Quinn.
This makes the lie by Phillips even more incriminating.
Now, the pictures produced by the Cuban consulate and the description by Duran is of a man who was short and blonde. This matches what Contreras said about the guy who visited him at National University. And at the AARC conference last year, Dan Hardway said that they had more witnesses besides Contreras at the college, but the CIA prevented he and Eddie from getting to them.
Again, this is seven weeks before the assassination. Now couple that with the Odio episode--because as I have demonstrated elsewhere--it is very hard to believe that Oswald could be in both places. The Odio incident tries to incriminate Oswald, again, about seven weeks before the crime.
See, this is the kind of stuff Sprague and Tanenbaum were closing in on. Warp speed beyond the WC. Sprague was hot on the trail of the Mexico City transcripts. He wanted to know why there was a transcript the Tarasoffs did not translate. So he confiscated their typewriter for comparison purposes. What makes that so interesting is that we later learned that it was Phillips who transported the transcripts to Langley under an assumed name. Did he add a phony transcript?
As Jim Garrison said way back when, in figurative language, Mexico City is the key to the crime.
