Americans will be 'shocked' by JFK files, White House staff teases before release

80,000 files regarding JFK's assassination will be released today.

Ahead of the much-awaited release of the 80,000 files related to the assassination of John F Kennedy, White House deputy press secretary Harrison Fields teased that Americans are truly going to be shocked by what they see in those files. Without revealing about the content, he said "there will be a story to tell" once the documents become public. However, after the recent release of the Epstein files which did not do justice to the hype it created, the public opinion about

JFK files

was not very enthusiastic.
Donald Trump Monday announced that the filed will be released Tuesday without any redaction.

Kennedy's assassination has been subject to many conspiracy theories. Historian too want the release of the documents as they believe the files may shed some light on some information they did not earlier about the murder of a sitting president.

A 1992 law required the government to release documents related to the President Kennedy assassination within 25 years, except documents that could harm national security. In 2017, Mr. Trump released some additional documents, but he also gave the intelligence agencies more time to assess the files.
The FBI in February said it found 2,400 new paed of documents about Kennedy's assassination. “The FBI conducted a new records search pursuant to President Trump's Executive Order issued on January 23, 2025, regarding the declassification of the assassination files of JFK, RFK, and MLK,” the bureau said. “The search resulted in approximately 2400 newly inventoried and digitized records that were previously unrecognized as related to the JFK assassination case file.”

The man was identified as 24-year-old Lee Harvey Iswalk who was shot during a jail transfer two days after he killed the president. A year after the assassination, the investigation concluded that Oswald acted alone and there was no conspiracy.
