Trump to Allow Classified ‘JFK Files’ to Be Released

They were already scheduled to be released; it's not got anything to do with Trump 'allowing' them to be released and everything to do with him try to take credit for it. They are legally required to be released by the 26th of this month.

^^ Just what I was coming to say. But yeah, typical of Trump to take credit for something that was going to happen anyway. :roll:

Because the motion was in place anyway, and because he doesn't even understand the issue well enough to decide if it would be necessary to bar the release of the documents. Feeling like it's necessary to praise Trump for this must be a symptom of an advanced stage of Stockholm syndrome. Sure, Trump could launch all our ICBM's at Russia today, but if he announced this morning that he decided not to thus sparing the world nuclear armageddon, should everybody praise him for that too?

Cardinal,
I am not praising him. The original quote was :

There's no credit because it's not actually a decision on Trump's part.

All I'm saying is yes, the decision to withhold any of the information is his. I was disputing the quote that it wasn't.
 
Once again, the conspiracy losers will wet themselves to no avail....


 
Here is a tidbit now made public:

A memo to the director of FBI revealed that a call was made to the senior reporter at the Cambridge News at 6.05pm on the day Kennedy was shot in Dallas, Texas.

The document, from deputy director James Angleton, said: "The British Security Service (MI-5) has reported that at 1805GMT on 22 November [about 25 minutes before the President was shot] an anonymous telephone call was made in Cambridge, England, to the senior reporter of the Cambridge News.

"The caller said only that the Cambridge News reporter should call the American Embassy in London for some big news and then hung up." British newspaper received mystery call minutes before JFK assassination

I assume the hack on a UK small local paper told this tall tale to a mate in a pub after work and kept it up for the sake of five minutes of fame. Incredible - the word means 'not to be believed', not a synonym for 'wow'.
