Trump Vows To Release Remaining JFK Assassination Files If Re-Elected
[ZH] Trump made the announcement in a Monday interview with The Messenger, vowing that every single remaining file on the JFK assassination would be made public.

"I released a lot, as you know. And I will release everything else," Trump said.

It would mean that some 4300 files that are still redacted would become available.

In 2018, Trump delayed the full release of the remaining JFK documents until October 2021, with Joe Biden later postponing that until December 2022, citing the COVID-19 pandemic.

Biden did release more documents, but thousands still remain hidden.

Trump refused to be drawn on what is in the files, noting "Well, I don’t want to comment on that. But I will tell you that I have released a lot. I will release the remaining portion very early in my term."

After a long pause, Trump admits Pompeo blocked release of JFK files....

#1 One big fat YAWN. Sure, Donny, sure.

Oh, and now you're blaming it on Pompeo. Give me a fooking break.

#3 The only way to convince people that you're not hiding something incriminating is to release the documents.

DeSantis Vows To Release Trump Assassination Files If Elected

Just saying. I'm surprised it hasn't happened yet.

#5 Look, it's like pulling teeth to get Pfizer, et al., to release their covid vaccine data (remember their request to protect it for 75 years?) or the Jan 6th info that is under lock and key for a while (25 years?), so, do we really expect any president to authorize the release of the JFK assassination files? Come on.

#6 It is probably worth writing legislation to prevent the 75 year memory hole stuff. I am not sure that it will do much good as there will just be an incentive to keep no records. It would work against what Pfizer is doing; the CIA and FBI are probably beyond reform or accountability.

#7 That's the absurdity about the Pfizer Fauci Flu vaccine files. To treat the files as if that info were TS/SCI is utterly ridiculous. And who is the FDA to arbitrarily decide to hold such information under the wraps for such a lengthy period? I suppose not surprising given the unholy alliance between Big Pharma and government (FDA/NIH, CDC, etc.).
