In 1963, President John F. Kennedy was assassinated during a motorcade in Dallas. He was 46. #todayinhistory
CBS journalist Walter Cronkite recalled the intensity of that day.

“Those whose jobs often involve great emotional stress develop an amazing, stoic power to defer emotion, a power that momentarily eluded me,” he said in his special report for NPR. #JFKAssassination
Civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev, Indian politician Indira Gandhi and jazz musician Duke Ellington were among those who sent condolences to the White House.
By the end of the day, Lyndon B. Johnson was sworn in as the 36th president of the United States.

Breaking: Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was admitted to Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore on Friday night, after experiencing chills and a fever earlier in the day, the Supreme Court said in a statement.
“With intravenous antibiotics and fluids, her symptoms have abated and she expects to be released from the hospital as early as Sunday morning,” the Court said.
Earlier this month, the 86-year-old missed a day of oral arguments at the Court due to what a spokeswoman said was a stomach bug.

THREAD: On this date in 1963, the nation was still mourning the loss of President John F. Kennedy, then the man accused of his murder - Lee Harvey Oswald - was himself shot to death.
This happened in the basement of the city police headquarters.

On my trip to Dallas last year, I walked by that building. There was some renovation work happening, but I did head around to the ramp entrance on Commerce St.
Back in 1963, that’s the ramp an armored truck was backed into place, ready to transport Oswald.

@TheJenniferMac President John F. Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963, in a public square which had been home to a Masonic Lodge and which has an obelisk in its center. November is Month #11 and the day of the murder was the 22nd. Numbers 11 and 22 are sacred primary occult numbers.
@TheJenniferMac Nov. 22, 1963 = 11/22/ 1+9+6+3 = 19
Signifier for tomorrow, 11/22 '19 ?
Something big to be revealed and reversed by The White Hats?
I PRAY SO!

21 year old John F Kennedy visited Palestine 1939 and wrote to his father- There were 13 bombs set off my last evening there, all in the Jewish quarter and all set off by Jews. The ironical part is that the Jewish terrorists bomb their own telephone lines and electric connections
