Most people think Dallas was the only time someone tried to kill JFK.
Wrong.
Three weeks earlier, a hit squad waited for him in Chicago. The plot was foiled by Abraham Bolden, the first Black Secret Service agent.
But when Bolden warned the establishment that his fellow agents were dangerously sloppy and leaving the President exposed, they didn’t give him a medal.
They framed him and threw him in federal prison.
The System didn’t fail JFK. It worked exactly as designed.
