Trump likely to block release of classified JFK files: report

By Julia Manchester - 10/20/17 09:23 PM EDT

President Trump is expected to block the release of information from thousands of classified documents regarding the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy in 1963, according to a Politico Magazine article on Friday.

More than 3,000 assassination-related documents are set to be released by the National Archives next week in accordance with the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992, which states that the federal government must release them by Oct. 26, 2017.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

The Warren commission only released a summary report, not the whole thing, and there was a lot supposed to be sealed for 50 years. Time's up (If it ain't edited and sanitized by now, there has been plenty of time.)

Almost 2900 documents were released, only a few hundred are being held for further review.

For what? A do-over on the primaries in New England after the retraction? Some things can't be compensated. He had other fish to fry anyway.

That's more important than the honor of your family if someone said that about one's father?

The bulls**t was refuted. Honor upheld. If they wanted to play honor games they'd have met somewhere 10 paces from destruction shortly after Iowa. Instead, he just said "Vote your conscience".
