Trump, who returns to the White House on Monday (January 20), promised on the campaign trail to release classified intelligence and law enforcement files on the 1963 assassination of JFK, as America's 35th president is widely known.

Trump had made a similar promise during his 2017 to 2021 term, and he did release some documents related to JFK's 1963 murder. However, he later kept a significant chunk of documents under wraps, citing national security concerns following pressure from CIA and FBI.

Trump’s decision to release these files comes in the wake of strong advocacy from Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the nephew of RFK, who has long pushed for the declassification of documents related to his uncle’s assassination.
