WASHINGTON, March 17 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday his administration will make public around 80,000 pages of files related to former president John F. Kennedy on Tuesday.
Earlier this year, Trump signed an executive order directing the federal government to present a plan to release records related to the assassinations of Kennedy, his brother Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr.

Remember that time they were going to release juicy Epstein classified information about the child rapist pedo ring and they rickrolled you instead? Truly the party that cares about protecting children from predators.
It is rather interesting that the world shattering JFK files end up being fully released before the Epstein ones...
 
All the files are digital, there's zero reason for it to have taken this long. Same as ol egg dick, they have terabytes of shit and they released less than Nick Bryant did years ago.

Got that feeling that this will be a total nothing burger, I hope to be wrong but the lack of a time besides just sometime today isn't promising.
Why would anything be released? Trump has already secured his victory and will be able to say he did what he could, while the obstructionists will celebrate the continuing lack of transparency.

The only people that lose here are the constituents who wish to have information about how their government functions and what is happening behind the curtain released and quite frankly I can not IMAGINE any motivation from the government to help THEM.

People really need to remember this.

Ruby was basically a JFK super-fanboy with anger issues. He loved JFK so much he kept a picture of him in his jail cell. He was also friendly with the cops because he wanted to be on good terms with them since the businesses he ran (ie; nightclubs and strip joints) often needed their assistance, and shit.

It's more than possible that the cops knew how devastated he was by JFK's death, and let him in to see Oswald get taken away not knowing just how big of a mistake that would be.

Watching the footage of Jack shooting Oswald, it’s odd how… artificial it seems. Like an early episode of Twilight Zone, the kind with no budget so it was filmed basically on a black stage with some props scattered about. I’m sure that’s just due to the camera quality of the time, but the reactions of people as well in the footage also come off as…wooden, for lack of a better term?
