Shes called back more than once after serious questions are raised about her truthfulness. Among other things, in her initial interviews with the fbi and secret service, she denied she had any knowledge of this mexico city trip. It turned out later she knew all about it. She knew all about it before her husband had gone there. The socalled magic bullet and what was the significance of that for the commission . Well, i think its probably the single most controversial piece of evidence from the kennedy assassination investigation. Its the bullet the Commission Staff would conclude had passed through the bodies of both president kennedy and Texas Governor connolly. That contradicted the initial fbi report on the assassination, which found three bullets had landed in the president s limousine. The first one hit president kennedy in the back. The second one hit governor connolly in the back. And the third one hit president kennedy in the head, which was the fatal shot. The Commission Staff
Thats this Christmas Day on the cspan americas. For our complete schedule, go to cspan. Org. 50 years ago on september 24th, 1964, Supreme Court chief Justice Earl Warren handed a report of the president s commission on the assassination of president kennedy to president Lyndon Johnson in the oval office. The seven commissioners pictured here with president johnson and general counsel Jay Lee Rankin concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in killing president kennedy. The Warren Commission worked for nine months in this building, the Washington Office of the vfw, a short walk from the Supreme Court building and the u. S. Capitol. We set up a camera in a fourth Floor Conference Room to talk to investigative journalist philip shenon, whose book a cruel and shocking act examines the Warren Commissions work, using key phone calls, documents and artifacts, mr. Shenon explains the lingering controversies regarding the war and the report. But first we take a brief tour of the former Warr
Russia has shared all its information with the dutch, and we have encouraged both the dutch and icao to seek information from russia because theres been a lot of funky theories, lets put it that way, coming out of russian propaganda. Now, on your second point, i completely reject your assertion that we seek to hurt the russian people, on the contrary, we have fought for 20, 25 years, to see the russian people in a more prosperous, more democratic, more open, more peaceful country. That is what i have personally committed my diplomatic career to over all these years. Thats what we have committed some 20 billion in u. S. Assistance to the Russian Federation over these 20 years to. Our concern, those, is that it is the choices that the russian leadership that is making, that are now taking russia back to a place of isolation, to a place where it is closed off, where its people are closed off, not just from clean democratic, open information by the kremlins propaganda campaign, but also fr

That starts with an essentially complete coverage of whats called a Silver Health plan. And that is the premium that is charged for a Health Care Plan that covers 70 of the covered Health Care Services on an actuarial basis. Plans can provide that coverage in different ways. Many people also want more generous coverage, or they receive it through employersponsored plans, if you buy through a Health Exchange you can buy plans that cover up to 90 of the cost of coverage, which leaves relatively small amounts for deductibles, there may not be any or costsharing, only for certain services. Its very generous coverage. Perhaps not as generous as tricare is now described as being, but close. So the question i have is whether it wouldnt be desirable as part of the National Health care system to provide for the base level of coverage to be a general responsibility not of the department of defense, but but of the overall Healthcare System that is serving the rest of the population. Now, for spec
