Putin could have been 'FIRED' in 1998 — from top spy job that propelled him to presidency
rt.com | 2019-11-23
Vladimir Putin could've had his career smashed months before becoming Russian president, a former Kremlin official claims.

JFK: What the CIA Hides

My own JFK questions involve George Joannides, a decorated undercover officer who served as branch chief in the Miami station in 1963. He ran psychological warfare operations against Cuba. In 2003, I sued the CIA for Joannides' files. The lawsuit ended 15 years later in July 2018, when Judge Brett Kavanaugh, in his last opinion before ascending to the Supreme Court, tossed my case. Kavanaugh declared the agency deserved "deference upon deference" in its handling of Freedom of Information Act requests about JFK files.
