The release fulfills Trump's campaign promise of full transparency regarding President Kennedy's assassination. Former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard has overseen the organization of these documents to ensure complete, unredacted disclosure.

The documents are expected to reveal:

  • Previously classified CIA and FBI communications about Lee Harvey Oswald
  • Potential foreign government involvement
  • Secret testimonies from officials who questioned the Warren Commission
  • Internal discussions about restricted access to assassination information

This release comes after multiple delays since the JFK Records Act of 1992, which initially required full disclosure by 2017. Both Trump and Biden had previously postponed the release citing national security concerns.

The files will be accessible through a government portal later today. While transparency advocates praise this move, some government officials warn of potential diplomatic and security implications.

These documents could provide definitive answers about whether Oswald acted alone and clarify the roles of various intelligence agencies in the investigation of the November 22, 1963 assassination.

Historians, journalists, and researchers are preparing to analyze these records, which may reshape our understanding of one of American history's most debated events.
