CIA takes documents on JFK assassination and MKUltra from DNI Gabbard's office
The CIA removed approximately 40 boxes of documents related to JFK's assassination and the MKUltra program from Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard's office. Gabbard's press secretary denied the incident occurred as described, while Rep. Anna Paulina Luna issued a 24-hour ultimatum for their return. Intelligence officials confirmed to the Daily Caller that the documents were taken, though there is dispute over whether it constituted a "raid" and when it occurred.
