| The National Archives and Records Administration is releasing documents previously withheld in accordance with the JFK Assassination Records Collection Act. The vast majority of the Collection (88%) has been open in full and released to the public since the late 1990s. The records at issue are documents previously identified as assassination records, but withheld in full or withheld in part. Learn more
This July release consists of 3,810 documents, including 441 formerly withheld-in-full documents and 3,369 documents formerly released with portions redacted. The documents originate from FBI and CIA series identified by the Assassination Records Review Board as assassination records. More releases will follow. |

Even more, you should be ashamed by calling this Breaking News.

Other than being awfully sensitive about the word 'kook' and bitching about quoting the word 'Breaking' in the title, do you have any relevant comment?

Why did you post the source article, seeing that the release today has been well publicized?
Other than being awfully sensitive and bitching about my critique, do you have any relevant comment?

Now the magic bullet kO0K$ will go ape shiite!
They found it on a stretcher at the hospital, so it's got to be the one that killed JFK, right?

When haven't they gone ape, with or without cause?
It would seem to defy reason for many people but bullets do have to end up somewhere. Sometimes, it is in an improbable location.
Maybe we'll get more answers about the Magic Bullet from the document dump.

There was some question as to whether Trump would change him mind.
I also wanted people to know where to get the actual files if they want to kook their way through all those documents and audio files.

The document dump may reveal that there was a lot of ass grabbing going on at that time, around the grassy knowl, suggesting that GHW Bush killed JFK!

Wouldn't bother me. I kinda doubt it will be that interesting. He was prez and so was his dumb brat so you'd think Spook Daddy would cover his tracks better than that.

Funny how you're kooky enough to claim the files have been released, seeing that the news organizations are headlining that they are 'Awaiting Release of Classified JFK Files'.

Trump was busy all afternoon with the opioid thing and simply hasn't been available to sign the document releases.
Someone familiar with the files from FBI says a lot of CT kooks (my term) will be disappointed because there's not much in them. Most of it centers around Oswald's alleged trip to Mexico just prior to the assassination.

I don't think so. Apparently Trump was supposed to sign this morning but went off on his opioid jihad without signing them. So the archives jumped the gun with their announcement, it seems.

I'm laughing about the fact, which you posted as 'Breaking News', that the records were being released today. ---- Now you post that most aren't.
Yuck it up, boy.

2800 of the 3810 documents are being released today. So 73% are being released in full today. It isn't clear if any more will be released or when and whether they will be redacted. I'm not sure if Trump will have to go back to Congress to sequester them if they are to be held for a number of years. That is what they did back in the Nineties when they sequestered all of these 2017 files.
Despite many years of being on these forums, you apparently still do not understand the term "Breaking News". It means that an article is an initial report and that more details will certainly follow. "Breaking News" never means that it is the full and final story.
As for my use of it, I merely quoted the title of the excerpt exactly as I found it over at HotAir. You may recall that a lot of people object to retitling articles in any way and I rarely alter them. When I do alter them, I nearly always place anything extra in square brackets [].
But congrats you've dragged this thread to 20 posts and still have said nothing of any substance at all.

I do know that JFK, on the fatal shot, was shot from the front... and the projectile exits the back of the head. Never have a shot any object or animal that lifted up and towards me after the shot.

Ever been to Dallas?
Most don't realise how small the Plaza is, or that a duplicate of the grassy knoll structure is directly opposite the overpass, another perfect spot to have made that kill shot.

You'd think the FBI would have had more competence in the Hoover era but maybe he was overrated.

DailyWire: BREAKING: Trump Releases 3,000 Docs On JFK Assassination, Keeps Hundreds Secret
According to the White House, the FBI and CIA made numerous request to withhold some of the files, in violation of the 1992 law. Adding to the confusion, the decision comes just one day after President Trump tweeted, "The long anticipated release of the #JFKFiles will take place tomorrow. So interesting!"

Barbara begins to describe that fateful day on page 59 of her memoirs:
On November 22, 1963, George and I were in the middle of a several-city swing. I was getting my hair done in Tyler, Texas, working on a letter home.
Here are some excerpts:
The following is how the excerpts appear in the book, ellipses and all.
Dearest Family,Wednesday I took Doris Ulmer out for lunch. They [Al and Doris Ulmer] were here from England and they had been so nice to George in Greece. That night we went to . . .I am writing this at the Beauty Parlor and the radio says that the President has been shot. Oh Texas my Texas my God lets hope its not true. I am sick at heart as we all are. Yes, the story is true and the Governor also. How hateful some people are.. . . Since the Beauty Parlor the President has died. We are once again on a plane. This time a commercial plane. Poppy picked me up at the beauty parlor we went right to the airport, flew to Ft. Worth and dropped Mr. Zeppo off (we were on his plane) and flew back to Dallas. We had to circle the field while the second presidential plane took off. Immediately Pop got tickets back to Houston and here we are flying home. We are sick at heart. The tales the radio reporters tell of Jackie Kennedy are the bravest Ive ever heard. The rumors are flying about that horrid assassin. We are hoping that it is not some far right nut, but a commie nut. You understand that we know they are both nuts, but just hope that it is not a Texan and not an American at all. I am amazed at the rapid-fire thinking and planning that has already been done. L.B.J. has been the president for some time now 2 hours at least and it is only 4.30.
My dearest love to you all,
Bar
