National Intelligence Director Tarsi Gabbard praised President Donald Trump after noting that the files on the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy “leading a new era of maximum transparency.”
“President Trump is in a new era of greatest transparency,” Gabbard wrote post X. “Today, according to his instructions, the previously edited JFK assassination file is open to the public without editing.
Files are accessible directly to the public on the National Archives website here. National Archives' JFK assassination Records Page Website state:
In accordance with President Donald Trump's orders of March 17, 2025, all records have previously been withheld due to classification that is part of the John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection.
The National Archives partners with federal agencies to comply with the president's orders and support Executive Order 14176.
On March 18, 2025, the records can be accessed online online at the National Archives in College Park, Maryland, on this page or directly on the site. Records will continue to be digitalized and will be posted on this page.
The release of the files comes the day after Trump announced Tuesday that around 80,000 files would be released by Gabbard, adding that “people have been waiting for this for decades.”
Kennedy was shot dead on November 22, 1963 while riding a car through Dallas, Texas.
In January, Trump signed an executive order declassifying records regarding the assassination of Kennedy, his brother Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr.
During the presidential election, Trump vowed to create a committee on the assassination of the president, and that the committee would pay tribute to JFK's nephew and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., son of Robert F. Kennedy.
As Breitbart News previously reported, “Kennedy's father, Robert F. Kennedy, was filmed after winning the Democratic primary in California on June 5, 1968, and passed away the following day.”
