Declassified: Trump Keeps Promise, Demands the Truth About What Happened to JFK, RFK and MLK
On January 23, 2025, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to declassify records related to the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, Senator Robert F. Kennedy, and Reverend Dr. Martin luther King Jr. This significant move comes as Trump reiterated that many have been waiting for this facts for decades, asserting that “everything will be revealed.” The order mandates that the Director of National Intelligence and other officials must present a plan for the full release of these records within 15 days, with 45 days allocated for the release of the RFK and MLK documents. Trump previously addressed the long-standing nature of these withheld records, emphasizing that their continued redaction is not in the public interest. This executive order follows earlier attempts during his presidency to release such documents, limited by requests from the CIA and FBI for further review.
President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Thursday that would declassify three of the most controversial assassination records in American history.
The order would declassify the files on the late President John F. Kennedy, Senator Robert F. Kennedy, and the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
“That’s a big one, huh?” Trump said to reporters in the Oval Office. “A lot of people have been waiting for this for years — for decades.”
“And everything will be revealed,” Trump added.

The order gives the Director of National Intelligence, the Attorney General, and other officials just 15 days to “present a plan to the President for the full and complete release of records” regarding the JFK assassination.
Officials have 45 days, however, to release the RFK and MLK cases.
In October 2017, Trump ordered the release of 2,800 documents relating to the assassination of JFK, according to NBC News.
Some of the records, however, were withheld upon request by the CIA and the FBI for further review.
In a 2018 presidential memorandum, Trump ordered those redacted records to be re-reviewed and disclosed if withholding them was no longer necessary, according to his executive order.
Former President Joe Biden allowed the records to be further reviewed in 2021, 2022, and 2023.
Now, Trump said they’ve had long enough.
“I have now determined that the continued redaction and withholding of information from records pertaining to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy is not consistent with the public interest and the release of these records is long overdue,” Trump’s new order read.
