What does Christina say about.....


Joan's involvement in the JFK assassination. Christina should investigate that one!

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

Joan has a long history with American Presidents.

Christina had a lengthy interview in the prestigious Weekly World News, where she states that her mother murdered President Washington by poisoning his wooden teeth. I thought everybody knew that.
Also, she hinted in the same interview that John Wilkes Booth was really just Joan in drag and that the future movie queen assassinated President Lincoln.

And while I can't know for sure, I also suspect that Joan was responsible for FDR's paralysis.

I think she was "Deep Throat". After J. Edgar Hoover (whom she blackmailed with photos of him in drag) died, she decided it was too risky having Nixon in the Whire House when he knew of her involvement in the JFK assasination.

She also got John Hinkley to take a shot at Reagan in order to impress lesbian actress Jodie Foster.

She also hired the two women who tried to shoot Gerald Ford.

Squeeky Fromme was the hapless victim of one of Joan's most nefarious projects. She began by feeding the Manson Family Mountain Dew laced with enough acid to give everyone in Los Angeles a bad trip. Her successful test of this joint CIA/KGB in 1969 (known as the Tate LaBianco murders) encouraged Joan to feed the drug to Pepsi CEO/rival Donald Cox on the set of Trog in his uncredited cameo as the film's title character. Before long, Joan was on the warpath, causing lethal overdoses of Mountain Dew for Diane Linkletter, Jimi Hendricks and Janis Joplin, as well a collective bad acid trip for the entire cast of Myra Breckenridge. Finally, J. Edgar Hoover threatened to expose Joan's activities, which resulted in her strangling the aging transvestite with his own garter belt. Gerald Ford incurred Joan wrath when he pardoned Nixon, rather than having him iced as Joan had ordered (she feared exposure of her role as a CIA/KGB double agent). Ford himself proved remarkably immune to Joan attempts at drugging him (although his notable clumsiness was in fact a side effect of the LSD/horse tranquillizer laced Mountain Dew Joan fed him). Frustrated and having a meltdown over being thwarted (and having The New York Daily News printing "unflattering" (i.e. unretouched) photos of her, Joan recruited paroled Manson Girl Squeeky Fromme to assassinate Ford.

As legend has it, a Dallas newspaper reported on the morning of the assassination that Nixon and Crawford, both on the board of Pepsi and in town supposedly for a bottlers' convention, had taunted Kennedy about his use of the protective bubble top, and that that public taunting might have played a role in JFK having it removed from the limousine when he drove thru Dallas that day.

Crawford and Nixon were indeed in Dallas the previous evening, some reported seeing them together at comic Robert Clary's show at a Dallas hotel, while others (like LBJ's mistress) saw Nixon at a party that same evening where Lyndon Johnson showed up at the last minute and told his mistress that Kennedy wouldn't be a problem after tomorrow.

The video of LBJ's mistress discussing the party is here:

Some people have tried to dispute that the Assassination Eve party ever happened or that Nixon was there, but servants verified it, and even Helen Thomas (with the Dallas press at the time, and future famed White House reporter) who was in attendance signed an afadavit which essentially confirms the story.

I've never heard, though, whether Crawford was at the party.

Crawford with President Kennedy that previous spring:

Interestingly, an invitation had been extended to both Joan Crawford and Richard Nixon from White House staff members to attend the scheduled luncheon speech that President Kennedy was to deliver at the Dallas Trade Mart. Without being overtly partisan, Crawford told a reporter, “No, I don’t think either of us will attend the luncheon here for President Kennedy,” she smiled.

But Pepsi had issues with Kennedy.

14 years later, when Crawford herself expired, only two framed portraits were found in her apartment: one of buddy Barbara Stanwyck and one of President Kennedy whom she'd known for years.

Reminiscence? Or hunting trophy?

No rational person should care what Christina Crawford says about anything.
