            JFK created the USAID in Nov. 1961. Click on photo for some what what he said about it.

                Goat's blood-drinking Florida man gets 9 1/2 months for role in torch-carrying mob at UVa
                Augustus Invictus, a far-right activist and failed U.S. Senate candidate convicted for his role in the 2017 torch-carrying mob at UVa, was sentenced Wednesday.
            
        
    
    
            One of the big names from the 2017 Unite the Right rally, Augustus Invictus, is (finally!) going to prison for his role in the tiki torch parade. He was convicted of using fire for racial intimidation.

                Exclusive: RFK Jr.'s secret push to prove CIA killed uncle
                "RFK believes that and wants to get to the bottom of it," a source told Axios.
            
        
    
    
            When you are writing a book about the Kennedy assassination (no, I donβt deal with conspiracy theories), I guess any new attention to the topic is advantageous? And, no, I donβt believe the CIA killed JFK or RFK, as RFKβs problematic son seems to.

            Agree about LOC cafeteria, which I have visited for years -- can't beat the view, though. I have my students watch the first two hours of network coverage (available on David Von Pein's JFK YouTube channel). They are always fascinated.
