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.

November 22 was payback for Carlos Marcello (a Mafia Don) who was unceremoniously deported to Guatemala by Kennedy's brother Robert, then-attorney general, who also insulted and greatly humiliated Marcello during public hearings on organized crime.

This was after the labor unions tied to the mob had ensured JFK's victory in the 1960 election in the State of Illinois by arrangement with JFK's dad. Robert Kennedy was an out of control double-crosser with a hate on for the Italians.

Marcello hired a French sniper who made the kill shots from under a sewer grate at the side of the motorcade route at Dealey Plaza.

From Wikipedia:

In his 1994 autobiography Mob Lawyer, attorney Frank Ragano says that he relayed a message in 1963 from Teamsters Union leader Jimmy Hoffa to Marcello and Santo Trafficante, the Mafia boss of Florida, urging the two Mafia bosses to kill Kennedy.[23][24] Ragano later claimed that four days before Trafficante died, the mob boss described to Ragano how he and Marcello organized the murder of President Kennedy.

I worked in the building where Ruby shot Oswald for a couple years. From 1991 to 1993. Hope I didn't throw out anything important. There was this one file cabinet I wanted moved so I could put in a mini fridge.

#27: "The never ending delays are proof enough alone that the Deep State did it."

Exactly. Occam's Razor.

1) Cubans - Bay of Pigs, Radio Swan or the whole Russian nuke thing. The stench in the background is the CIA.

2) Diem family. After generations of political games, the Diem family finally seized the reigns of power in Vietnam. He wouldn’t dance to Kennedy’s tune, so that smell again...

3) Your point - The Bankers. Doing away with the Fed and just printing money as it was needed... That wasn’t going to end well, no matter what.

4) He was going to cut off the CIA budget. The ultimate rice bowl push-back...

5) The Generals - JFK damn near started WWIII at least twice. Someone had to do something (see books at the time like 7 Days in May is just one of many - some published before JFK departed)

6) Pissed off husband - John and Bobby both here...

7) The Mob. Plenty to make this believable....

The list could go on. Racial strife and riots, Johnson and his greedy band of cutthroats, the list could go on for pages. Despite the granting of sainthood by the media, there is much to dislike about the guy...and the entire Kennedy clan, truth be told.

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

It is critical that the Deep State protect its means and methods of assassinating presidents....

Any President who disagrees....oops....

Thanks. My recollection is he originally wanted to release everything while President.
Seemed concerning when that didn’t happen; as possibly he was told he couldn’t.
I figured if all people, Trump was stopped from doing it, then we would never see the records.

Since we know that Biden and the DemocratICK Party do not give a rat’s patriot about national defense, our intelligence agencies, law enforcement, or anything else, we can be assured that release of such material would not be harmful to any of these things listed, but rather, would likely benefit these important things. Most likely they have blocked the information to protect something they are very much devoted to, such as Cuba, the training ground of leftwing terrorism, or some group they always pander to.
