In a landmark move toward governmental transparency, President Donald J. Trump has signed an executive order mandating the declassification and public release of all remaining documents related to the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, Senator Robert F. Kennedy, and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
A Commitment to Transparency
This decision fulfills a long-standing promise to shed light on some of the most pivotal events in American history. The executive order directs the Director of National Intelligence to develop a comprehensive plan within 15 days to ensure the full release of these documents.
Overcoming Previous Hesitations
In prior administrations, including his own, President Trump had withheld certain documents from public access, citing national security concerns as advised by former officials such as Mike Pompeo. However, in this renewed effort, the President emphasized the importance of transparency, stating, “The American people deserve to know the full truth surrounding these assassinations.”
Revocation of Security Details
In a related development, President Trump has revoked the security protection for former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and former aide Brian Hook. Both individuals had been under continuous security due to credible threats from Iran, particularly following their roles in the U.S.’s “maximum pressure” campaign against the Iranian regime. The administration cited the substantial costs—exceeding $2 million per month—as a factor in this decision.
