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.

Today is the date set in law for this final release.
Bush isn't President now. This date was written into the law.
Fake news !
On January 3, 1967, Jack Ruby died of a pulmonary embolism from lung cancer.

Can I see that link?
In other words, the remaining files are embarrassing to both the FBI and the CIA.
Release them all.
What CYA by the spooks!
.
Hey, what happened to that vacuum in your head?
You are utterly without the slightest bit of comprehension of any event!
And if you havent been looking, it was Cruz, using his own staff and funds that won the Rust Belt for Trump.
What did you do besides whine and wet your pants?
.
.
Truth, to be sure!

>> “Therefore, the conspiracy industry is still in business.” <<
Precisely!
.
An embarrassment? Why would those who conducted the investigation, or held onto it all these decades be embarrassed?
They should terminate, on the spot, ANY government official who even SUGGESTS anything like that should not be made public.
I’d like a law saying that nothing can be made secret for more than 10 years. Everything should be known, and sooner rather than later. the ONLY exceptions should be for actual technology in use or agents in the field.

Enough of this b.s. It’s been 50+ years, and the CIA/FBI is still censoring what the American People have every right to know. Gee. I wonder why.
Still have to protct LBJ.

>> “Bush isn’t President now. This date was written into the law.” <<
That level of understanding is Waaay above dragnet2’s cognition.
>>Therefore, the conspiracy industry is still in business.
**********************************************************
Therefore, the conspiracy identifiers will continue their analysis, despite the efforts of the CIA/FBI to keep us in the dark.

Cruz is way sharper than cutting edge!
You are wet cardboard box.
.
Trump needs to organize the alleged Intelligence Community.
.
The Zapruder film is all we ever needed to explain the Kennedy assassination.
Every frame is worth a thousand pages of coverass.
.
The civil servants who have been "working" on reviewing these files for decades don't want to lose their jobs. Perhaps by releasing 2800 of the remaining 3100 files it will at least mean we can cut the staff from 2,000 full time people down to 700 or so in the Department of JFK File Redaction.
