Trump to Release Classified JFK Files

On November 22, 1963, the 65th President was assassinated by Harvey Oswald during his visit to Texas.President Trump announced that almost 54 years after the incident, he will release classified documents relating to President Kennedy’s murder.

 

The release of the documents does not come as a surprise, as the deadline of October 26, 2017 for their release has been set since Congress ruled in 1992 that all assassination documents could be released 25 years after that date.

While Trump could intervene and prevent their release, along with 30,000 documents that were retracted previously, it does not look like he has a motive to do so.

These documents declassification have been long awaited by history buffs and conspiracy theorists alike. Many people have turned their backs on the story of Oswald killing the President. Instead, there is this conspiracy theory that the Government killed JFK themselves, along with Marilyn Monroe, whom he had an affair with at one point

While we do not believe the documents would delve into such detail to either confirm or deny the conspiracy theory, they will definitely fill in a piece of American history that has left people talking for decades.
