Thousands of classified documents relating to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy are set to be released next week, despite several government agencies desperately trying to keep them under wraps.
More than 15,000 documents concerning the assassination remain locked away at the National Archives 59 years after his death - including dozens which experts believe would be the 'smoking gun' proving direct ties between Lee Harvey Oswald and the CIA.
President Joe Biden ordered a review into the documents which will likely see a large batch of files still under lock and key released by December 15, after 1500 were released on the same date last year.
But his administration is now facing a federal lawsuit from a New York-based lawyer who discovered that the CIA, FBI, DEA and other agencies are hell-bent on keeping the files secret - lending more credence to the incredulity of conspiracy theorists with each passing year.
Jefferson Morley, the Vice President of the Mary Ferrell Foundation - one of the US' largest sources of assassination records - said there are at least 16,000 documents yet to be released.
He believes 44 of them contain information about a covert CIA program relating to Cuba that directly involved Oswald.
The Mary Ferrell Foundation is one of several clients of Larry Schnapf, a New York lawyer who filed the lawsuit against the Biden administration and the National Archives in October, demanding the release of all JFK-related documents.
It comes after Schnapf obtained via a Freedom of Information Act request internal communications between the National Archives and several government agencies, telling POLITICO that the CIA, FBI, DEA went to great lengths to prevent the files from being shown to the public.

It will be stopped at the last minute. Has happened before.
There will be so much blacked out paragraphs that Washington is now in a crisis shortage of black ink cartridges.
which is proof that the CIA killed a sitting president, as far as I am concerned.
there is no other legitimate reason for them to keep shielding these records after so many years.
It will be stopped at the last minute. Has happened before.

Governments only tell people what they want them to know.
The JFK Cult has been late in making their appearance this year!
It’s good to see they’re still worshiping their god!
Deep State did the deed....................
A former Marine? Lived in Russia, Married a Russian woman, speaks fluent Russian, was interviewed by the KGB on multiple occassions.
The CIA would be derelict in their duty if they had not questioned him.
Likely the CIA came to the same conclusion as the KGB: The guy is a head case we do not want anything to do with.
But let's see what they have, if we ever see it.
We’ve been a very dirty country for a very long time.
Are they finally going to release the notes from the CIA’s debriefings of Oswald on his return from the USSR?
In less than 60 years, three presidents JFK, Nixon and Trump, have been effectively removed from office under very sketchy, crooked circumstances. In each case, forces within government agencies, accountable seemingly to no one, appear to have played significant roles. RFK, Jr., who seems to be a pretty good guy is right: “We’re not supposed to have secret governments within the government.”
I agree.
Beg to differ. The government yes. The people, not necessarily, not the constitution
“The CIA would be derelict in their duty if they had not questioned him.”
They definitely questioned him. That the debriefings happened has already been documented. They are just still withholding the notes from the debriefings to tell us what was discussed, and they claimed for many years that there were no files detailing any follow-up tracking of Oswald, which seems far-fetched to say the least.
“Likely the CIA came to the same conclusion as the KGB: The guy is a head case we do not want anything to do with.”
Then why does Oswald shortly thereafter end up getting a job with a firm developing U-2 spy plane photos, which should require a security clearance? A marine who worked on the base that U-2s flew from, who defected and may well have provided the Russians with information that helped them shoot down Powers’ plane just comes back and gets THAT job without the CIA, FBI or DIA objecting??? Color me skeptical.
Fair Play for Cuba!!
As a young person, I was convinced that there must have been a conspiracy involved in JFK’s assassination... Then, after years of careful examination of the actual facts surrounding the case I came to the obvious conclusion... Lee Harvey Oswald was a lunatic who acted alone... The FBI and CIA both had lots of information on this crazy guy, but nobody working with either one of those two incompetent agencies, could put it together before he killed Kennedy.
This is why the 9/11 lunatic conspiracy fans will always have their supporters... The same thing happened... The FBI and CIA had lots of indicators that Osama Bin Laden was planning an attack... There just wasn’t anybody working at either agency who could put it all together and present it as a sane conclusion to the political masters running those agencies.
Politics needs to be removed from the running of both the CIA and the FBI. Political hacks (especially lawyers) already employed should be weeded out and only professional spies and law officers should be responsible for both agencies.
I don’t give a damn about JFK. I care about the government using the excuse of “national security” to cover up their crimes for decades and decades until anyone who might be held accountable by the citizenry is already in the ground.
That’s right. And now I doubt if there are any who are dirtier.
We all knew this—its just confirmation now. The History of the Late Great American Republic is being written now.
