The Trump administration released a huge batch of previously classified documents on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination on Monday as Americans clamor for information about Jeffrey Epstein.
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard announced that the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) was publishing 230,000 pages worth of documents relating to the civil rights leader's April 1968 assassination.
The release was in accordance with Donald Trump's executive order earlier this year mandating the release of files on former President John F. Kennedy, former Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy and MLK.
The release comes as the Trump administration has been dealing with a growing contingent of discontented MAGA devotees who are determined to see additional files on the deceased sex offender.
'The American people have waited nearly sixty years to see the full scope of the federal government's investigation into Dr. King's assassination,' Gabbard said in a statement.
'Under President Trump's leadership, we are ensuring that no stone is left unturned in our mission to deliver complete transparency on this pivotal and tragic event in our nation's history,' she continued. 'I extend my deepest appreciation to the King family for their support.'
Dr. Alveda King, the niece of MLK, celebrated the release.
'I am grateful to President Trump and DNI Gabbard for delivering on their pledge of transparency in the release of these documents on the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr,' she said in a statement.
'My uncle lived boldly in pursuit of truth and justice, and his enduring legacy of faith continues to inspire Americans to this day. While we continue to mourn his death, the declassification and release of these documents are a historic step towards the truth that the American people deserve.'
This is a breaking news story and will continue to be updated.

My comment is now “old news” and water under the bridge, but I will never get over Pam Bondi saying she had the Epstein files on her desk. All 128 pages of it. Right on her desk. 128 pages.
MLK? We got 230,000 individual files on that guy.
Are any of these MLK documents under a court seal? No, then what is all the bellyaching about.
Bondi admittedly handled this poorly and should have handed it off to a trusted top tier lawyer to handle, because all of it had to be sorted.
But she had to grandstand and now she looks like a dumb bimbo all the way to the bone.
Don’t shiv a git
I largely agree with your assessment. I would just like to augment your description by phrasing it as "bone, sinew, entrails, and carbuncle".
So where could peons like us view these files? White House.gov? Where are they?
“””but I will never get over Pam Bondi saying she had the Epstein files on her desk”””
I think you need to step away from the computer and get a life if something like that puts you into such a tizzy. Out here in the real world nobody cares about it. It is just a distraction and a way to keep the ORANGE MAN BAD theme going.
Do thefilestalk about how he was trained by Commies, and that Barry Levinson was his Commie handeler?
It sounds like Trump is delivering on a promise to the surviving King family. I suspect most of that info has already been made available to the general public, if you know how to search for it.
The book of Jude describes King perfectly
I have no clue what DJT sees in Blondie.
Didn’t Maurene Comey, Prosecutor from SDNY fail to provide Bondi the requested Epstein files some of which were used in her prosecution of Ghoslaine Maxwell?
What she released...and it’s a lot...is on the web. Do a little googling.
It’s called....wait for it....Department of Justice....
While the democrats are flailing over whatever they can pursue Trump the builder is building up his relations with the black voter. Pretty smart switch.
“Promises made, promises kept”
I presume you meant Stanley Levinson.
When it comes to MLK the transcripts and audio tapes of his sexual encounters as recorded by the FBI are supposed to be sealed for two more years till 2027.
MLK had FBI informants round him I wonder if we will know about that.
