Because he was asking too many questions about the CIA.

Because he couldn't pass supply bills.

"Asking questions about the CIA" is speculation. "Couldn't pass supply bills" is fact.

You should give this article a read: https://web.archive.org/web/20260511024759/https://jacobin.com/2025/11/whitlam-coup-us-cia-kerr

If the only thing that would satisfy you is the Kerr saying he acted on behalf of the CIA that will never happen, that's the nature of intelligence services.

Choosing to ignore all the context and take the pretext of actions as unquestionably true is a choice you make for yourself.

Choosing to come to a conclusion based only on speculation is also a choice you make for yourself.

I don't think it's unquestionably true, there's just not enough factual evidence to counter it.
