A Jan. 10 Facebook post (direct link, archive link) shows a screenshot of a video that features Bill Cooper, a well-known conspiracy theorist, talking about the death of President John F. Kennedy.
"They viewed President Kennedy as a security threat," Cooper asserts in the video. "I'm not exactly sure what that means, but the documentation clearly said that the assassin was the driver in the car in which he was riding in Dallas on that day."

The video was shared more than 4,000 times in three days in a post that has since been deleted. The followup Jan. 10 post is from the same user and consists of screenshots of the prior post.
