The Hill reports:
Trump in January signed an executive order directing the release of federal government documents related to the assassinations of Kennedy, former Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr.
The order instructed the director of national intelligence and attorney general to present a plan within 15 days for the “full and complete release of records relating to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.”
Trump promised during his 2024 campaign to declassify the remaining government documents about the John F. Kennedy assassination, which has remained a point of public interest for decades after Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas in 1963 by Lee Harvey Oswald. Conspiracies have persisted about CIA involvement or the existence of another shooter.
“I said during the campaign I’d do it, and I’m a man of my word,” Trump said Monday.
“We have a tremendous amount of paper. You got a lot of reading. I don’t believe we’re going to redact anything,” Trump said.
Trump said the files would be released tomorrow afternoon.

Per NewsNation:
Trump, who made the announcement as he spoke to reporters at the Kennedy Center, said he had not read the files but called them “very interesting.”
The president said there are around 80,000 pages that will be released.
The majority of files regarding JFK’s assassination have already been declassified. The remaining files remained classified due to sensitive information, which could include the names of informants who may still be alive and intelligence-gathering information, including potential safe houses or black sites, that may still be in use.
