What Are They Hiding? Govt. Releases More than 13,000 Documents Related to JFK Assassination – But FBI-CIA are Still Withholding 3% of the Documents

In 2017 President Trump approved the release of approximately 2800 long-classified JFK assassination records.

News outlets from around the globe furiously combed through the files in search of more pieces to the puzzling death of President John F. Kennedy.

President Trump released a second trove of documents later that year.

One of the documents revealed that Democrat President Lyndon Johnson was a KKK member.

This was not a surprise. The Ku Klux Klan was founded as the activist wing of the Democratic Party.

On Thursday the National Archives released thousands of the JFK documents.

But the FBI-CIA would not allow the release of all of the documents. Around 3% of the JFK documents are still being withheld from release to the public — more than 50 years after the assassination.

What are they hiding?

Insider Paper reported:

A new trove of secret files related to the November 1963 assassination of US president John F. Kennedy was released on Thursday, but the White House held thousands of documents back, citing national security concerns.

The Warren Commission that investigated the shooting of the charismatic 46-year-old president determined that it was carried out by a former Marine sharpshooter, Lee Harvey Oswald, acting alone.

That formal conclusion has done little, however, to quell speculation that a more sinister plot was behind Kennedy’s November 22, 1963 murder in Dallas, Texas, and the painstaking release of the government files has added fuel to various conspiracy theories.

The National Archives said a total of 13,173 documents had been made public on Thursday in the latest release, and that 97 percent of the Kennedy records — which total approximately five million pages — have now been made public.

President Joe Biden said in a memorandum that a “limited” number of documents would continue to be held back at the request of unspecified “agencies.”

Previous requests to withhold documents have come from the Central Intelligence Agency and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

“National security concerns” does not mean what I always thought it meant.

Thank you all who answered my motive question.

There has been plenty written about this. The Bay of Pigs invasion failed because Kennedy withdrew support by the navy. That operation was planned and executed by the CIA. They lost a lot of people, and knew Kennedy was the bloke who caused it.

Then there is Kennedy's pressure on organized crime. We all know that the FBI and the CIA are well connected to the crime syndicates.

The are even the rumors that Kennedy was going to disclose the UFO/ET presence. ;-D

Kennedy pissed off a lot of alphabet agencies.

[I want the USA back]

Well then the conclusion is that the CIA/FBI took an active part in the assassination. If they want to prove otherwise, release the papers.

“The are even the rumors that Kennedy was going to disclose the UFO/ET presence.”

The deeper issue was that JFK was opposed to a lot of Deep State secrecy practices.

One lesser known speech:

It begins:

“The very word secrecy is repugnant in a free and open society. And we are as a people, inherently and historically opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths and to secret proceedings. We decided long ago, that the dangers of excessive and unwarranted concealment of pertinent facts far outweigh the dangers which are cited to justify it.”

Needless to say that was in direct conflict with the CIA as well as other intelligence agencies.

” citing national security concerns”

The old standby.

Michael Tracey on Twitter:

>> Biden once again "delayed" the release of 4,400+ JFK assassination records today. We're supposed to believe these are records whose disclosure would still cause "an identifiable harm" to "military defense, intelligence operations, law enforcement, or conduct of foreign relations"

Last year the excuse was COVID. Now they're really claiming that even after "an intensive 1-year review," there are still thousands of records whose disclosure must once again be "postponed" on the basis of these criteria established by the 1992 JFK Records Act <<

Bullet through the front windshield. Easy to search and verify.

Last evening, we went to YOUTUBE, to watch the movied, THE LINCOLN CONSPIRACY. It was ‘the rest of the story’, of how John Wilkes Booth was able to end the Lincoln Presidency, with the inside help of his Secret Service, and Cabinet Members. It was EERY and real strange, like history has been repeated..even now in 2022..the Deep State has been at work a LONG time.

Probably who was the master mind of it and who gave the direct orders for it.

The approximately 400 pages concerning the JFK assassination that FBI-CIA refuse to release is the issue. What possible reason can there be to not release documents over 50 years old? I think the answer is “There is a there there”, that is, CYA for all the mistakes made.

I think the answer is “There is a there there”, that is, CYA for all the mistakes made.

Clearly and without a doubt.

Some people are still alive, or their spouses and children.....................

[Wizdum]

Just to play devil's advocate.

What if Kennedy was not the target?

Connolly had been SecNav in the early years of the Kennedy administration(18 months) and had the opportunity to change Oswald's Undesirable Discharge(in use at the time) to Less than Honorable for better benefits.

Connolly refused, enraging Oswald. Mens Rea.

Dallas was motive and opportunity.

Has anybody written about the possible motives of CIA or the Deep State for assassinating JFK?

Oswald had a rock solid abili which was just documented in the previous document dump.

Here is what several witnesses told the Warren Commission (who then intentionally ignored their testimony since it was in conflict with the official narrative):

Oswald went to the second floor of the Texas School Book Depository to take a break from work.

He went to the soda machine to get a soda and realized he did not have the correct change.

Oswald walked across the hall to a work area and asked a lady co-worker for change for a dollar.

She reached into her purse and started to hand Oswald some change.

“Bang bang bang.”

Everyone rushed to the window to try to figure out what the loud noises were.

Then the lady returned to her desk and gave Oswald the change.

He walked back into the break room and bought a soda.

He was sitting in that break room drinking his soda when a police officer entered the building and saw him there.

That is an ironclad alibi.

Oswald did not do it.
