Joe Rogan Speculates ‘The Government Was Involved’ In JFK Assassination Following Trump Interview

Podcaster Joe Rogan speculated the United States government was involved in the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy Saturday in a brief discussion on his podcast following his interview with former President Donald Trump.

Trump promised to declassify the remaining files during his Friday interview with the top-rated podcaster, repeating a vow made during a May 2023 interview with The Messenger. Rogan said that Trump’s explanation that some of those named in the files were still alive pointed to potential government participation in the Kennedy assassination.

“I said okay so that’s why you wouldn’t release it because some of the people that are going to be implicated are still alive so what that’s saying to me is that the government was involved,” Rogan said.

At the start of his post-interview discussion, Rogan said he was looking forward to the release of the files.

“I don’t want to get involved in a podcast where there’s a lot of shit I want to get to,” Rogan said. “I want to know what the fuck is in the JFK files.”

During the Friday interview, Trump named former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo as one of those who counseled him against fully releasing all the documents at the time.

“I opened them up partially. I was met with — from good people, I mean, you know, look at me, good people, people that were well-meaning, Mike Pompeo was one of them, he’s a good person. Uh, they called me they said ‘Sir, would rather, have you not.’ After — and I did open them, but I was asked by some people not to open them,” Trump told Rogan during the Friday interview.
