Trump’s Order to Release Records on Amelia Earhart

On Friday, President Trump announced that he would direct the release of records related to Amelia Earhart, specifically concerning her “last deadly flight.” This statement came during an evening discussion.

“A lot of people have been curious about Earhart’s life and her remarkable journey. It’s really a fascinating tale. I’m thinking about declassifying and making everything known, especially regarding her final flight,” he shared on the platform Truth Social.

Trump continued by saying, “I am instructing my administration to declassify and unveil all records associated with Amelia Earhart, including her last trip and everything else about her.” He also conveyed appreciation for the sensitivity surrounding this topic.

Earhart made history in 1932 when she became the first female pilot to traverse the Atlantic Ocean.

She vanished during a Pacific Ocean flight, prompting a two-week search for her and her navigator. Although they were never located, researchers theorize that they might have crashed.

Numerous theories about her disappearance exist, with some suggesting she was captured by the Japanese or involved in espionage.

Trump commended Earhart as an “aviation pioneer,” highlighting her many significant accomplishments in aviation.

“Amelia captivated nearly three-quarters of the world before her abrupt disappearance—she was gone without a trace,” he stated in his post. “Close to 90 years ago, her mysterious loss has intrigued millions.”

His call to release files is part of a broader initiative to uncover answers connected to various conspiracy theories.

Previously, Trump had ordered the declassification of government documents, including files related to the assassination of John F. Kennedy.

He also sought the release of transcripts from the Grand Jury Court concerning the case of Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender.

However, as scrutiny grew regarding his ties to Epstein, Trump expressed frustration over persistent inquiries about further disclosures related to Epstein.

He referred to requests for additional Epstein documents as “an endless Democrat hoax,” which he felt echoed the situation surrounding Kennedy.

“We’ve provided more and more information, time and again,” Trump remarked. “Yet no one seems satisfied. I’ve been given thousands of pages of records, from what I gather.”
