WHILE THE MASS MEDIA AND DEMOCRATS SEEM ENRAPTURED WITH EACH NEW PHOTO, AND LETTER FROM THE EPSTEAIN FILES, WE FORGET WHAT MAY BE THE LAST HOPE TO GET SOME TRUTH ABOUT WHO KILLED JFK IN DALLAS IN 1963

 I asked Google AI the following question.  It's answers demand further questions and answers.  Will they ever open the real files?

I attended PTS Beauregard Junior High for a year with Oswald.  I never knew him, though it is possible I may have asked him, "How much is this?" as we moved through a lunch line.  About 1,000 students, I was in the 9the grade classes; he was in the 8th.  If he ever attended Warren Easton Senior High, he did so for less than a month, and again, I did not know him.  At Easton, I had met Banister's daughter, Mary Jane' she was the date of a friend Tex Sanders and we had double dated to go to the large Saenger Theater on Canal St. to see "Rebel without a Cause."  The theater was packed and at the film's conclusio, it seemed the packed theater exhaled a breath of relief.  All the tv family programs of that era, like Father Knows Best, the Nelson Family (with little Ricky) were families that were all terrific, a minor problem each week, solved within a half hour.  None of the families of Rebel were ideal, Sal Mineo's never appeared, Natalie Wood's dad slapped her and called her a slut; James Dean's was usually wearing an apron and not heading the family against the mom's dominance.  The film itself was a Rebellion against the 1950s illusions of comfort and conformity.

Mary Jane and I met then for the first time.  We both attended Easton, and she had heard disturbing things about me.  She was concerned, worried, I might be moving into the communist camp, talking about race-mixing and things like that.  She thought I should meet her dad, who was an expert on the subject as he had been a leader of the FBI in Chicago before coming to New Orleans.  (Indeed, Banister had been Acting Superintendent of the New Orleans Police for a time).  He now headed a detective agency, and Mary Jane urged me to come to their home and talk to her dad, and get some sense in my head.  I went to her home, and Guy was then sorting mail, standing by a table.  I approached and introduced myself; he grunted, and kept sorting.  I was the only one speaking, and kept it short.  Mary Jane was a pleasant, likeable gal, and I did what she requested, and Guy probably did too.  Clearly neither of us were enthused about the meeting, but to please her we did so.  Later I learned that Banister was one of the "conservatives" who would pay young people to spy on youthful radicals.  I will discuss more on the atmosphere in New Orleans in that era in the forthcoming book.

In summer of 1963 I entered the Tulane Library and on a small table in the foyer was a stack of leaflets [ Fair Play for Cuba Committee, what many deemed a pro-Castro organization.  I picked up one; there was no one else around.  Iread it later and discussed it with a grad student in philosophy.  Hae either of us sent a letter to the address on the leaflet, it would have ended in the office of anti-com Guy Banister.

Are we really to assume that the Fed. Govt. had no files on Oswald with Banister, David Ferrie, the CIA training camp north of Lake Pontchartrain shut down in July 1963?  Stop forcing the Dept. of Justice to go through every Epstein pimple, and go to WHO MURDERED JFK.

why did "marxist" Lee Oswald work with staunch anti-communist Guy Banister in New Orleans in 1963 on the Fair Play for Cuba Committee?

The relationship between the Marxist Lee Harvey Oswald and the staunchly anti-communist Guy Banister in New Orleans during the summer of 1963 is a central mystery in JFK assassination research. While official government investigations generally concluded Oswald was a "loner," evidence and testimony suggest their collaboration served specific, often conflicting, tactical goals

. 

Key Evidence of the Connection

• Shared Address (544 Camp Street): Oswald distributed Fair Play for Cuba Committee (FPCC) leaflets that were stamped with the address 
  544 Camp Street
  . This was the side entrance to the Newman Building, which also housed Banister's private detective agency at 
  531 Lafayette Street
  .
• Witness Testimony: Banister’s secretary, Delphine Roberts, stated that Oswald visited the office frequently and "seemed to be on familiar terms with Banister". She also claimed Banister explicitly told her Oswald was "one of ours" and was working for him.
• Proximity to CIA-Linked Figures: Banister was a former FBI official who ran an anti-communist intelligence network and worked with David Ferrie, an anti-Castro pilot who had known Oswald since the Civil Air Patrol. 

Primary Theories for Their Cooperation

There are several major theories explaining why these two ideological opposites would work together:

• Establishing a "Legend" (Cover Story): Researchers suggest Banister was helping Oswald build a public persona as a fanatical pro-Castro Marxist. This "legend" could serve as cover for infiltrating leftist groups or, as some theorists argue, to later frame Oswald as a Cuban asset in the event of an assassination.
• Provocateur Operations: Evidence suggests Oswald’s FPCC activities were designed to provoke reactions. For example, Oswald staged a street fight while handing out leaflets to gain media attention and bolster his pro-Castro image, which some believe was a tactic to flush out communist sympathizers for Banister.
• Intelligence Infiltration: Some believe Oswald was a low-level informant or "asset" for the FBI or CIA. In this scenario, Banister, who maintained close ties with government agencies, acted as a handler while Oswald attempted to infiltrate the DRE (Directorio Revolucionario Estudiantil), a CIA-funded anti-Castro group.
• Anti-Castro Schemes: Delphine Roberts believed their association was related to anti-Castro operations, potentially including gun-running or training Cuban exiles, activities Banister was known to support. 

Despite these accounts, the Warren Commission did not find credible evidence of a link, and the CIA has historically denied any official relationship with either man. However, the House Select Committee on Assassinations (HSCA) later acknowledged that Oswald did indeed associate with anti-communist figures in New Orleans.
