Biden delays release of JFK assassination records, blaming COVID-19 pandemic

The US will “unfortunately” continue to delay the public release of records related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, and officials say the COVID-19 pandemic is to blame.

The move was announced in a memo signed by President Joe Biden and released by the White House Friday.

“Temporary continued postponement is necessary to protect against identifiable harm to the military defense, intelligence operations, law enforcement, or the conduct of foreign relations that is of such gravity that it outweighs the public interest in immediate disclosure,” Biden wrote.

In 1992, Congress ruled that “all Government records concerning the assassination of President John F. Kennedy . . . should be eventually disclosed to enable the public to become fully informed about the history surrounding the assassination,” the missive said.

The act allowed the government to postpone the release to “protect against an identifiable harm to the military defense, intelligence operations, law enforcement, or the conduct of foreign relations,” according to the memo.

This year, the National Archives and Records Administration ruled that “unfortunately, the pandemic has had a significant impact on the agencies,” and NARA needed additional time to research the material and “maximize the amount of information released,” the memo said.

The most sensitive information will now be released in December 2022 and material that has already been deemed “appropriate for release to the public,” will be dumped on Dec. 15 of this year.

Are you in Philly???

I staggered into downtown Philly from the Navy base in 1968 on New years Day after celebrating to the extreme...

The Mummers Parade was going and I swear I thought I was hallucinating...I didn’t know anything about it and I was stunned...

It was great!!!!!!

Well yes, since Lee Harvey Oswald visited the Cuban and USSR embassies in Mexico right before the assassination.

You mean its not normal for someone to walk into a heavily guarded police station and casually kill the person who just murdered the President of the USA.

Oh and the killer of the killer happened to have terminal cancer.

Tying up loose ends.

It was an accident.

Nobody told Oswald the rifle was loaded with real bullets.

No, western Maryland.

Mummer’s parades are pretty much everywhere but they have the local one around Halloween.

I’ve been to Philly *twice* and that was 3 times too many.

“ Why in the world would Trump do that? “

I suspect it may be because it shows the CIA or other Deep State actors did it as well as many other assinations across the globe, and releasing it
would start WW3.

Maybe those documents have already been shredded, and there is only an empty box.

Frankly, I’m so tired of Covid. Everything about it: the excuses, the hype, the people who are afraid of my cooties, the masks thrown on the ground, everything.

’ (Deep State) operates like that, then people might start asking uncomfortable questions’

Interesting angle... very interesting, indeed.

That’s no excuse. The virus is not infecting the documents. Release them, Brandon!

How could there be a vital national security interest in the Kennedy assassination?

Hypothetically, suppose Nasty Nancy ordered the hit...

...after all, she is said to have familial Mafia connections...

...and JFK was a well known womanizer...

...and Hell hath no fury like...

That sounds like something Trump would jump at. Deep sixing the Deep State.

The Deep State just had to whisper to President Trump—ok you know what we did to JFK—and we got away with it...

Do you want to be next?
