Afghanistan
On 26 August 2021, the day of the 2021 Kabul Airport attacks, Ray McGovern tweeted:
Do today's bombings at Kabul airport have signs of a false flag attack?
If prior intelligence was so accurate, why was attack not nipped in bud?
Key question as always: CUI BONO – who profits from killing Americans at this point?
Russian hacking
| "The NSA holds the key to Russian hacking allegations" |
"The NSA holds the key to Russian hacking allegations," says ex-CIA analyst Raymond McGovern:[3]
“The heavies in the Washington Establishment (including Hillary Clinton, John Podesta, and CIA chief John Brennan) have strong incentive to keep Trump out. They have pulled out all the stops, using the corporate media to “show” that Hillary Clinton would have won absent a heavy Russian thumb on the scale. The media have seldom been more effective implementing President George W. Bush’s dictum to “catapult the propaganda.” Amidst all this, Ray and his VIPS colleagues have done everything they could to expose what is going on.”
9/11
About 9/11, Ray McGovern stated "I think at simplest terms, there’s a cover-up. The 9/11 Report is a joke."
In 2011 he said that even though the 9/11 attacks occurred more than a decade prior, the US Congress was continuing to exploit them to pass "evermore Draconian laws", rolling back civil liberties and he noted that the US senate had signed off on the military's policy of indefinite detention without trial.[4]
Solidarity with Assange
| Unkempt like "my friend Julian Assange" |
On 12 August 2021, Ray McGovern joined the Massachusetts Peace Action discussion on Julian Assange, the CIA, the military-industrial-complex, the assassination of John F Kennedy, and Russiagate.[5]

A Quote by Ray McGovern
| Page | Quote | Date |
|---|---|---|
| Jack Teixeira | “The provenance of the leaks is problematical. I see everyone focusing in on this Airman First Class for God's sake. In my view, there is no way that he could have had access to some of those internal CIA documents, much less EXDIS, NODIS cables <a href="#cite_note-3">[3]</a> from the State Department. That all comes to, it's kind of a pyramid, under the Joint Chiefs of Staff and under the Director of National Intelligence. It's someone in my view at that level, that has either authorized, or slipped out, or actually made this kind of leak. This is not unprecedented, exactly, exactly the same thing came when there was real fear of a widened war up to and including the border with China during Vietnam.” | 24 April 2023 |
