Trump Orders 2,800 JFK Assassination Files Released, Withholds Others
npr.org ^ | October 26, 2017 | Brian Naylor

President Trump has issued a memo to executive agencies ordering the release of 2,800 remaining records related to the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy.

The files are among the last to be released by the National Archives under a 1992 law that ordered the government to make all remaining documents pertaining to the assassination public. There has long been a trove of conspiracy theories surrounding Kennedy's death in Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963, including doubts about whether assassin Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone, as the Warren Commission determined in its report the following year.

Other files are being withheld due to what the White House says are national security, law enforcement and foreign policy concerns. The vast majority of what's being withheld is at the request of the FBI and CIA.

Why would he withold any?

Has he joined the swamp?

Does America not deserve to see every document in existance without redacting anything? Which assassin can still be alive?

An enterprising reporter may want to stake out local tarmacs.

...

Therefore, the conspiracy industry is still in business.

It's a delay, not a permanent hold.

While watching ABC news tonight this was mentioned, and it was also mentioned that Jack Ruby shot himself in front of the police.
I said “SAY WHAT!” I immediately asked my wife if she heard the same thing and she said SHE DID!

Any one else hear that?

Because the FBI and the CIA didn't deliver their objections to the White House until today.

Probably he would have witheld all of them is my guess, but are we not expecting a bit better from Trump?

My point is that from the beginning, the sealing of the evidence was a full confession of complicity on the part of every member of the commission.

They literally investigated themselves and then hid the evidence.

That would be wrong. The Warren Commission didn't order the sealing.

They did fracture the language at that point and I did a double take. Plain English is always a better choice.

Yes, definitely, he was at the check-in desk of the county jail when he did it.
