Trump Orders Declassification of JFK, RFK, and MLK Assassination Files

In a historic move, former President Donald Trump has ordered the declassification of files related to the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, Senator Robert F. Kennedy, and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. This decision has stirred significant public interest, as these events remain some of the most debated and controversial moments in U.S. history. Trump’s announcement comes after decades of speculation and repeated calls for transparency from both historians and the public.

“These files have been locked away for far too long,” Trump stated. “It’s time for the American people to know the truth.” His executive order mandates the full release of thousands of documents still under government lock and key. While previous presidents, including Trump himself in his first term, delayed the release due to national security concerns, this order sets a firm timeline for full disclosure.

The assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963 has long been surrounded by conspiracy theories. Officially, Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone, but alternative narratives have pointed fingers at the CIA, organized crime, and even foreign governments. Similarly, the murders of RFK and Martin Luther King Jr. in 1968 remain subjects of widespread doubt. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a staunch critic of the official narratives surrounding his father’s and uncle’s deaths, expressed gratitude to Trump for pushing for transparency.

This release follows the 1992 JFK Records Act, which required full disclosure by 2017. However, exemptions for classified material allowed delays, and only partial disclosures have occurred under both the Trump and Biden administrations. Now, Trump's executive order emphasizes that continued secrecy "is not consistent with the public interest."

The upcoming release of these files may finally shed light on unanswered questions, offering clarity—or possibly sparking new debates. Either way, it’s a step closer to unraveling some of the most enduring mysteries in American history. As the public awaits these revelations, one thing is certain: the demand for truth is stronger than ever.
