Trump Administration Releases Thousands of JFK Assassination Records

In a historic move, the Trump administration has declassified thousands of documents related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. The records, released under the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act, provide new insights into one of the most scrutinized and debated events in American history.

The documents, which include CIA and FBI files, internal memos, and classified reports, shed light on the intelligence community’s activities leading up to and following the assassination on November 22, 1963. While no evidence of a broader conspiracy has been confirmed, the records reveal key details about Lee Harvey Oswald’s movements, potential ties to foreign governments, and the government’s handling of intelligence information at the time.

One of the most notable revelations includes previously undisclosed information about Oswald’s visit to the Soviet and Cuban embassies in Mexico City weeks before the assassination. The files also reveal internal disputes within the CIA and FBI regarding Oswald’s potential motives and connections.

The release of these records marks a significant step toward transparency, though some sensitive information remains redacted for national security reasons. Historians and analysts are now combing through the files to piece together new narratives and uncover hidden details that could reshape the understanding of the Kennedy assassination.

This latest release is expected to fuel renewed interest and debate about one of America’s most enduring mysteries. The question remains: Did Oswald act alone, or were there larger forces at play?
