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.

I remember conspiracy theories that Fort Knox has no real gold, but fake gold to fool the public.
The Constitution says only GOLD and SILVER was real money.
In the Civil War, Treasury Secretary Salmon P. Chase declared “Greenbacks” to be legal currency.
When Salmon P. Chase became Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, in 1869 he declared only GOLD and SILVER are true currency.
Now we are loaded with “monopoly money”. $1 in 1880 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $2.90 in 1960, an increase of $1.90 over 80 years. The dollar had an average inflation rate of 1.34% per year between 1880 and 1960.
Now, since 1960 prices have risen so high I can’t keep up with it. Today’s prices are 10.48 times as high as average prices since 1960

Oh, did he “agree”? Or was it made very compelling to agree?
Meh, I am not going to get over my disgust. Not much use arguing over it. The US is dying and has quite frankly asked for it.

This helps. And it is true for the most part.
Who did the CIA experiment with MK Ultra on are they still using it on Biden.
The deeper problem goes back before JFK—Eisenhower and even Truman eventually warned that the Deep State had gotten out of control.
It was George Washington who warned about the dangers of foreign entanglements.
Once you go down that road nothing good comes of it.
Each war just sets up the next one—and the one after that—and the one after that....
JFK thought that stopping nuclear proliferation would be the best solution—sounds good until the bullet hits your head.
Anyone born in Hawaii of an American mother was automatically a citizen. She would have no reason to be in Kenya especially at that level of pregnancy. Besides, Barack Sr wasn’t his real father anyway.
I know, and I agree with that.

I doubt they use it on Biden. You have to have a brian to use it on.
They just use ice cream, clean diapers, and little girls on Joe.
Thanks, I already used the archive link provided;)
We're gonna get Trump. Best make peace with it.
This is a plausible theory. I'm sure the Soviets were very angry about being humiliated during the Cuban Missile crises. Given their mindset, it doesn't surprise me that they would want Kennedy killed, and Oswald was just the sort of pro-soviet idiot who would do it.
Whether connected to oil or not, I still believe that Bush 41 had his fingers in this assassination via his CIA involvement.

I don’t think Bush was involved in the assassination at that time. But as CIA director later? Oh yeah. He knew all the details.
The status quo/institutions need a good cleansing/purification the sooner the better because the lies, manipulation, and deceptions are just getting worse. Events/apathy will reach a point where your “game theory” hyperbole will arrive at the same conclusion you drew but from a different angle/direction (Your backlash is already here and growing). Truth and honor above loyalty every single time because loyalties can be mired in lies, ineptness, and stupidity which erode civilizations.

True. Yet there are those who actually believe that under some obscure statute, Stanley Ann was too young to bestow citizenship on little Barry.
I just expect my politicians to stick to their word, or stop making statements they can’t live up to in the first place. I know that’s asking a lot of that ilk, but I’m not in the business of giving them free passes, no matter who they are. At least not a lot.
I don’t disagree with your logic—the stakes keep getting higher and higher.
At some point there will be a “no win” scenario where either telling the truth or continuing the lies will lead to equally bad outcomes—so it does not matter what they do.
