President Donald Trump has declared that approximately 80,000 pages of previously classified, unredacted files related to the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy will be made public today, fulfilling a long-standing promise from his first term and recent campaign.

Speaking at the Kennedy Center on Monday, Trump told reporters, “We are, tomorrow, announcing and giving all of the Kennedy files. People have been waiting for decades for this, and I’ve instructed my people… that they must be released tomorrow,” emphasizing that no redactions would obscure the documents. “You got a lot of reading,” he added, signaling the sheer volume set to flood the National Archives.

The release stems from an executive order Trump signed on January 23, directing the Director of National Intelligence and other officials to devise a 15-day plan for full disclosure—a deadline met today. The move, which also targets records on Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassinations (with 45-day plans still pending), reverses Trump’s 2017-2018 partial withholdings under CIA and FBI pressure, then citing national security. Now, with over 5 million pages already public per the 1992 JFK Records Act, this batch—including 2,400 newly found FBI files from February—promises unfiltered access to what remains, roughly 3,000-80,000 pages depending on estimates.

Trump handed the signing pen to RFK Jr., his HHS nominee, who has long claimed CIA involvement in his uncle’s death—a theory the agency denies. Historians like Larry Sabato caution against expecting a “smoking gun,” but details on Lee Harvey Oswald’s CIA surveillance or Mexico City visit might emerge.

Social media is abuzz, with some hailing transparency and others doubting revelations. As of this morning, the files’ rollout is underway, poised to reshape—or reaffirm—decades of debate over Dallas, November 22, 1963.
