President-elect Donald Trump said Sunday he will release the assassination records of three prominent figures on the 1960s.
They are former President John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr., according to a report in The Hill.
“As a first step toward restoring transparency and accountability to government, we will also reverse the overclassification of government documents, and in the coming days, we are going to make public remaining records relating to the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, his brother Robert Kennedy, as well as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and other topics of great public interest,” Trump said.
Trump made these remarks during a rally at Washington D.C.’s Capital One Arena in a clip highlighted by Mediaite.
Robert F. Kennedy’s son, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., had been a part of Trump’s campaign in the months leading up to the election.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is also the president-elect’s nominee for secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services.
In a previous interview, the younger Kennedy supported a conspiracy theory about the CIA being involved in Kohn F. Kennedy Jr.’s murder.
“There is overwhelming evidence that the CIA was involved in his murder,” Kennedy said during the 2023 interview. “I think it’s beyond a reasonable doubt at this point.”
The CIA has denied these allegations.
During the rally, Trump
said he was ready to go full boar the first day of his second term.
He added his supporters will “have a lot of fun” amid the barrage.
“Every radical and foolish executive order of the Biden administration will be repealed within hours of when I take the oath of office,” Trump said.
“Oh, you’re going to have a lot of fun watching television tomorrow,” he added. “Somebody said yesterday, ‘Sir, don’t sign so many in one day. Let’s do it over a period of weeks.’ I said, ‘Like hell we’re going to do it over weeks.’ We’re going to sign them at the beginning,” Trump said.
