... and Martin Luther King and Robert F Kennedy.

An executive order has been signed to release previously redacted and classified information to the public and the families of the above within 15 days beginning from January 23rd.

'Section 1. Policy and Purpose. More than 50 years after the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, Senator Robert F. Kennedy, and the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the Federal Government has not released to the public all of its records related to those events. Their families and the American people deserve transparency and truth. It is in the national interest to finally release all records related to these assassinations without delay.'


Will we find cover ups?

What I found particularly interesting was at the bottom of the executive order it says in Sec 3 General Provisions: '(c) This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.

Mr. Trump made a similar vow to disclose remaining documents related to the killing of President Kennedy during his first term, but he ultimately agreed to some redactions at the behest of intelligence agencies to protect sensitive information like the names of C.I.A. assets, intelligence gathering methods and partnerships.

Since returning to office, Mr. Trump has said he no longer considers such redactions to be valid and wants everything related to the president’s assassination to be released.

What you will find, is already in the public domain. Prepare to be disappointed.

The text will still read 'JFK was shot by Lee Harvey Oswald'. Rational people with read it as JFK was shot by LHO.

Flat earth, anti-vax, tin foil hat wearing Covid deniers will read it as anything that pops into their addled 'eds as long as it is as far from the truth as they can possibly imagine.
 
will Trump do that for Jan 6th?

no he wont
May we have one thread which doesn't revolve around Trump or Starmer. There are plenty other threads pertaining to either or both. I've posted this up in the hope it is an interesting point of discussion in and of itself.
 
I watched a clip of RFK jr. in the hearing for his appointment as Health Secretary yesterday - i can see why Trump chose him: his public speaking is awful - and one of the Senators held up a file, obtained through a FoI, that contained no transcript whatsoever...every page blank. Redaction at source. You couldn't even try to make out what's written because nothing was put on it in the first place. I expect nothing less from any files released into the JFK-RFK-MLK assassinations, either.
 
The Epstein files would also be interesting to see, for some reason he hasn't released those.

Trump will allow what he thinks will favour the right wing vesion of events. The same as they have done with the recent Covid virus origins supposed 'revelations'.

It will get the morons excited. Sunshine and aveatry will be thrilled.

Well. I actually wondered if Republicans could have been involved at the time or others trying to protect something else from getting out. This isn't meant to be a thread about left vs right. Again. It gets tired and quickly.

They've spent years and vast amounts of time and effort protecting the crooked Orange Moron. They all must be exhausted from the effort.

It is impossible to say either way isn't it? Are you making up your mind before the information has been released?

Not all Republicans like him so I beg to differ on that point.
