64,000 Pages of Kennedy Files Released


March 19, 2025

President Trump’s administration on Tuesday began releasing what it said were all of the government's classified files on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963, making public what could potentially be tens of thousands of pages of unredacted records.

This news comes after Trump signed a day one executive order in January that was aimed at fully releasing government documents related to the assassinations of Kennedy, his brother and presidential candidate Sen. Robert F. Kennedy, D-N.Y., and Martin Luther King Jr.
