As the 61st anniversary of President John F. Kennedy's assassination approaches, the ongoing interest in the events of November 22, 1963, remains palpable. President-elect Donald Trump had pledged to declassify all remaining government records related to the assassination if reelected, a promise that has stirred anticipation among conspiracy theorists and historians alike.
Despite previous commitments to full disclosure, only a fraction of the millions of governmental records have been released to date. Experts caution against expecting groundbreaking revelations even if the remaining files are made public, with one author asserting that the likelihood of a definitive smoking gun is slim.
