WASHINGTON — President Trump said Monday that he’s preparing to release 80,000 Kennedy assassination files on Tuesday — a trove that’s expected to be pored over by history buffs and conspiracy theorists.
Trump made the remark while visiting the Kennedy Center performing arts hub in Washington.
It was not immediately clear if Trump was referring to files pertaining to the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy of the 1968 assassination of his brother, then-Sen. Robert F. Kennedy (D-NY). He also has ordered the release of files on Martin Luther King Jr.’s 1968 assassination.
The long-hidden files may come as a let-down, as an initial review by administration officials turned up no new bombshells.
