President Donald Trump announced that 80,000 pages of unredacted records tied to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy will be released on Tuesday. The decision, revealed while Trump toured the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., follows his long-standing pledge on the campaign trail to ensure the transparency of these long-hidden files.
“People have been waiting for decades for this,” Trump told reporters, adding that he had instructed officials, including Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, that the release must happen “tomorrow.”
Trump also said, “I don’t believe we’re going to redact anything. I said, ‘Just don’t redact, you can’t redact,’” estimating that roughly 80,000 pages will be revealed. Asked if he had personally reviewed the files, Trump noted, “I’ve heard about them… I’m not doing summaries, you’ll write your own summary.”

This dramatic disclosure comes in the wake of an executive order Trump signed in January, directing the release of federal government documents related not only to JFK’s assassination but also to the killings of former Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr.
Observers have pointed to the involvement of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., nephew of President John F. Kennedy and now Trump’s Health Secretary, as a poignant link to JFK’s legacy.
“A government that withholds information is inherently fearful of its citizens’ ability to make informed decisions and participate actively in democracy,” RFK Jr. had said before in January.
For over six decades, the public has sought answers about the 1963 assassination, which was carried out by Lee Harvey Oswald in Dallas. The possibility of a wider conspiracy—involving entities such as the CIA or a second gunman—has long fueled public fascination and a torrent of theories.
