President Donald Trump announced the imminent release of approximately 80,000 pages of documents related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. This release, part of a broader effort to increase public access to government information, follows previous releases of Kennedy assassination records. While the National Archives has already released most of the relevant documents, thousands remain fully or partially withheld. Trump's announcement, made at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, stated that no information would be redacted. The release comes on the heels of controversy surrounding the release of documents related to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. The newly released records will be accessible on the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection webpage. Experts offer varying opinions on the potential impact of this release, with some suggesting that it may not reveal a smoking gun but may contain details about the 'second gunman' theory in the Robert Kennedy assassination. Others believe the documents could be embarrassing for the CIA, potentially revealing failures in preventing the assassination. The release is a result of a 1992 law requiring the release of documents within 25 years, with exceptions for national security concerns.
