Trump October 27, 2017Īn initial review of some of the previously classified documents shed some light on the circumstances surrounding the Kennedy assassination. It is my hope to get just about everything to public!- Donald J. In the end there will be great transparency. It is my hope to get just about everything to public!” Trump tweeted. On Friday morning, Trump pledged the government would release more of the secret files, but did not commit to making them all public. Still, Trump’s decision to keep some documents secret is likely to keep conspiracy theories alive, fueling those who have long questioned official conclusions about the assassination and argued that the government has helped cover up the truth. In a memo, Trump directed agencies that requested redactions to re-review their reasons for keeping the records secret within 180 days. The US government released over 2,800 records Thursday night in an effort to comply with a 1992 law mandating the documents’ release, but kept roughly 300 files classified out of concern for US national security, law enforcement and foreign relations.
