Trump not releasing all the JFK files

I'd just like to see Lee Harvey Oswald's income tax returns.

He was married with two kids and made $1.25 an hour at the Texas Book Depository.

Sure did a lot of traveling and stuff.

You will note the bias in the article, nothing to see here move along.

According to the Oliver Stone movie JFK he bought a 1500 dollar plane ticket to Russia with 203 dollars in his bank account.

I wish I could do that :).

Notice how he was a marine and had access to U-2 flight information in Japan studies Russian while in the military. Renounces his citizenship goes to Russia and then the government pays to bring him back with his family and upon his return, its all no big deal and lets him just lead a normal life handing out anti US pamphlets in New Orleans.

What could the "US national security, law enforcement and foreign relations" organizations involved need to keep from public knowledge after 54 years?

Methods, names, current folks/families that were sources... plenty as I see it.

Just don't want to admit it was one of the Secret Service that killed JFK... probably evidence in the files that would support or might prove the cover-up.

Especially if Oswald was a CIA agent.

The CIA is defying President Trump.

That's the reason all the JFK files are not being released.

As I heard on TV by the forensics expert Dr. Michael Baden, how the government bungled the investigation.

[Soccerdad1995]

They are likely concealing the fact that Oswald was an alien from planet X. He had telekinetic powers, which explains the "magic bullet" bouncing around.

Seriously though, who knows? Maybe there is a mentioned CIA source who is still alive in Russia. And the CIA has not been able to get them to safety during the 25 years since this disclosure law was passed. Or maybe they are concealing an intelligence method that we haven't substantially changed in the last 54 years. Or maybe it is all an effort to keep the conspiracy theories alive to distract from the things our intelligence agencies are really up to.

Since one of the redactions is the response to a question about whether Oswald was ever a CIA agent, I think we can safely assume he was. If the answer to that question was "no", there would be no conceivable reason to keep it redacted. They should have redacted the entire question. But then again, we are talking about an agency that couldn't cover their tracks in a mere 54 year time frame, so they aren't exactly looking super competent at the moment.

Y'all got it all wrong. Marilyn Monroe was a KGB agent. That is what the CIA don't want released.

If you are currently secretly planning potentially multiple assassinations around the world, do you want the public aware that your organization has been involved in planning multiple assassinations throughout history?

This is potentially some very alarming stuff, especially if Lee Harvey Oswald was working with/for the CIA. Wouldn't you prefer to believe that he was colluding with the Soviets rather than working for the CIA?

I like cheese.

Are we talking about Oswald or Trump?

I saw a show that claimed one of the agents accidentally shot JFK in the head from the trailing car with a M16 due to his finger being on the trigger when the car accelerated after Oswalt fired.
