Around 80,000 documents in connection with the murder of President John F. Kennedy from 1963 will be published on Tuesday.

Days after taking office, the publication of the files together with the national archives in relation to the attacks by Kennedy's brother Brother Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr., both of the civil rights chairman, both of which were killed in 1968.

But the exact time of the JFK dump was only on Monday in the comments that the President made to reporter when he toured the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC,

“While we are here, I thought it would be appropriate – we will announce and give all Kennedy files tomorrow,” said Trump. “So, people have been waiting for it for decades and I have instructed my people … many different people. [Director of National Intelligence] Tulsi Gabard that they have to be released tomorrow. “

While many of the documents in connection with Kennedy's death were published in Trump's first term, some remained with exceptions that were expanded by the former President Joe Biden.

Although presidentialist said that the publication of the remaining JFK files could shed light on some details about November 22, 1963, it is unlikely that you have fired the accepted narrative -that the only shooter Lee Harvey Oswald fired the fatal shots on Kennedy's car from the sixth floor of the Texas school book in Dallas in Dallas.

In January in January, the professor of Northwestern University History, professor of History, Kevin Boyle, found that 300,000 pages had already been published with Kennedy and the rest “will not reveal … something new about John Kennedy's murder.”

Fredrik Logevall, a JFK biographer, said he did not believe that the new information “our understanding of what happened on this terrible day in Dallas” would dump dramatically, and added that “even if you do not change our understanding in this deep way, I think that there may still be useful information in these materials.”

It was not clear when files with RFK and King-Einige in connection with the civil rights leader, who were sealed by a federal court by 2027, could be published.
