President Trump has a reputation for delivering on his promises, facing down every obstacle the Uniparty and the Deep State could muster, and always battling fiercely for the American people. However, there was one promise he didn’t quite fulfill: the release of the JFK assassination records. Snarky reporters at the Associated Press covered this story back in April 2018.
AP:
President Donald Trump boasted last fall that he would open all remaining John F. Kennedy assassination records. So far, Trump hasn’t made good on the “great transparency” he promised then.
Trump announced on Thursday that the public must wait another three years or more before seeing material that must remain classified for national security reasons — more than five decades after Kennedy was killed Nov. 22, 1963 in Dallas, Texas.
The National Archives released its last batch of more than 19,000 records on Thursday. But an undisclosed amount of material remains under wraps because Trump said the potential harm to U.S. national security, law enforcement or foreign affairs is “of such gravity that it outweighs the public interest in immediate disclosure.”
He ordered the CIA and other agencies to take yet another look at each blacked-out section of their documents during the next three years to see what more can be released.
CIA spokesman Nicole de Haay said the agency has already released more than 99 percent of CIA information that was in the Kennedy assassination records collection. “CIA narrowly redacted information in rare instances only to protect CIA assets, officers and their families as well as intelligence methods, operations and partnerships that remain critical to the security of our nation,” she said.

Trump just fired a shot across the USS Swamp’s bow. Let’s see if they return fire or stand down.
No excuse. He never presented the expose on Obama’s birth certificate either. Things like that should have been used as leverage to either get the wall (he didn’t get) or release the full story and truth.
That means he knows. Same as Pompeo. We’re the ones that trust the people aren’t we?
The info should have been released. No excuses.
More CIA bulls** - they are using the same flimsy excuse to prosecute Trump on "confidential documents," - only WE know what national security is, and only WE get to define it.
It could only mean the Soviets were behind it and kept secret to avoid a war.
The CIA. Why wouldn’t you not want them exposed if they did it?
I have explained here many times why the documents were not released.
Some folks believe me—some folks do not.
Here is the key to the castle:
The key doesn’t work. The WAPO wants money. So a brief explanation would be nice.
Really? WaPos click bait?
Effin paywall
Trump is using what he knows about the President Kennedy as graymail. It’s a serious threat, a legal one, and warning to the Deep State to end the corrupt prosecution’s.
My guess is this threat is an indirectly aimed attempt to get Judge Endoran or the New York Court of Appeals to significantly lower the bond amount to go forward with his appeal.
Things are going to get real interesting real fast.
Agreed. Not doing that.
Sounds like you want to be President so you can take care of this. Have you filed papers to run yet?
Executive order 11110. I am old enough to remember when the currency said “United States Note” for a while not “Federal
Reserve Note”. EO 11110 was rescinded shortly after the assasination.
He just hates Trump a whole lot.
