Donald Trump releases JFK Assassination files

Digital Desk: More than six decades after President John F. Kennedy's assassination, the Trump administration has released a significant collection of previously classified documents related to the incident.

The release, mandated by President Donald Trump shortly after taking office, includes over 1,100 files totaling approximately 31,000 pages.

These documents are part of a long-standing effort by historians, researchers, and conspiracy theorists to fully understand the circumstances surrounding JFK's death on November 22, 1963. 

While many experts caution that these files may not dramatically alter existing historical narratives, the continued fascination surrounding the assassination—and the persistent belief among many Americans that the full truth has yet to surface—means these newly revealed details are certain to attract intense scrutiny and debate.

The documents were posted on the website of the US National Archives and Records Administration, providing the public with unprecedented access to information related to the assassination.
