Trump Says JFK Files to Be Unsealed Thursday Are 'So Interesting!'

President Trump announced on Twitter that the classified documents related to the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy will be released Thursday.

“The long anticipated release of the #JFKFiles will take place tomorrow,” the president said. “So interesting!”

The documents will be made available on the National Archives, which will release thousands of remaining files that have never been seen about the 1963 assassination. 

But experts do not believe any major revelations will come to light in the files.

It's unlikely the documents contain any big revelations about Kennedy's killing, said Judge John Tunheim, who was chairman of the independent agency in the 1990s that made public many assassination records and decided how long others could remain secret.

JFK scholars believe the trove of files may provide insight into assassin Lee Harvey Oswald's trip to Mexico City weeks before the killing.

During the trip, Oswald visited the Soviet and Cuban embassies.

His stated reason for going was to get visas that would allow him to enter Cuba and the Soviet Union, according to the Warren Commission, the investigative body established by President Lyndon B. Johnson. However, much about the trip remains unknown.

Congress mandated in 1992 that all assassination documents be released within 25 years, unless the president asserts that doing so would harm intelligence, law enforcement, military operations or foreign relations. The still-secret documents include more than 3,000 that have never been seen by the public and more than 30,000 that have been released previously, but with redactions. (Fox News)
