Let us turn our gaze to a spectacle that threatens to shake the foundations of a narrative long held sacrosanct by the chattering classes of America.
Astonishing allegations have emerged, not with a whisper but with the force of a thunderclap, concerning a hitherto unseen NBC video that might—just might—topple the official account of John F. Kennedy’s assassination.
The claim comes courtesy of Republican Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL), who chose the appropriately dramatic stage of “Jesse Watters Primetime” on Fox News to lob this particular grenade into the public square. According to Luna, this tape—shrouded in mystery like some lost artifact of a bygone age—purports to show Lee Harvey Oswald lingering near the vehicle in which JFK rode to his doom in Dallas, Texas, at a spot that would render his role as the shooter not merely implausible but impossible.
Luna, with the earnestness of someone who has stumbled upon a truth too big to keep quiet, declared, "I would like to actually tell the American people, it was made, uh, aware to me this evening that NBC actually has a video that's never been seen before. We're actually going to be... sending a letter requesting that from NBC, because it allegedly shows Oswald, um, near the vehicle when the assassination took place, which means that he couldn't have been the shooter. So again, we're tracking down all this information."

So again, we're tracking down all this information."
If she's right—and that is a conditional of Himalayan proportions—this could dismantle the "lone gunman theory," a story clung to by officialdom with the desperation of a drowning man clutching driftwood.
To bolster her case, Luna invokes a CIA document, unearthed by the diligent journalist Jefferson Morley, which suggests that even the agency’s own mandarins harbored doubts about the solitary assassin tale. "There is even a CIA document that came out that Mr. Morley pointed out that actually said that the CIA never bought the lone gunman theory," she said, before adding with a note of quiet triumph, "I think the American people had an inclination as to what we were saying, but we never had the hard evidence until now." Here we see the specter of institutional skepticism, a crack in the edifice of certainty that has stood for decades.
And then there is Trump, who, earlier this month, flung open the JFK files with the flourish of a man who enjoys nothing more than upending the apple cart. Luna, ever the patriot, lauds this act of disclosure: "In a free and fair society, how could you operate or have an agency operating in the shadows? Kudos to President Trump, also Director [John] Ratcliffe, and Tulsi Gabbard for pushing for this transparency. It is going to be generational changing that they've done this." She vows to pursue legislation to banish such opacity from government corridors forevermore, though her immediate crusade is to wrench this elusive video from NBC’s grasp.
When Fox News host Jesse Watters—a man whose bluntness could fell an oak—pressed her on whether NBC had been deliberately squirreling away this tape, Luna did not flinch: "Correct. In fact, uh, Director [Oliver] Stone actually told us that he was showed this tape, uh, that it was a secondary copy, and that he said that this could blow open the entire JFK, um, investigation. What I will also tell you though, Jesse, is he said that NBC's been very, very much so guarding this tape, and so I believe that that tape belongs to the American people." If Oliver Stone, that perennial gadfly of American complacency, is to be believed, we are on the cusp of a revelation that could rewrite history—or at least make for a riveting documentary.

Luna’s call to arms is clear: "We are going to be sending a letter asking for that tape, and I would encourage everyone to ask NBC to release that tape to the public. It's important not just for our investigations, but so the American people know the truth as to what happened with John F. Kennedy." The tweet from Watters amplifies the drama:
"BREAKING:@realannapaulina tells Primetime that NBC has a secret tape that shows Lee Harvey Oswald near JFK's vehicle when the assassination took place... which would mean he wasn't the shooter. pic.twitter.com/SI34rf2HPG— Jesse Watters (@JesseBWatters) March 29, 2025."
Should these claims hold water, they could reignite a debate that has smoldered since November 22, 1963, forcing Americans to reconsider what they thought they knew.
But let us not be hasty. Does this tape exist? Does it show what Luna claims? I remain, as ever, a skeptic. She has not seen it herself, and until it materializes—until we can scrutinize it with our own eyes—I shall not be persuaded. The truth, like a rare jewel, must be held up to the light, not merely dangled as a promise.
