Donald Trump’s administration promised to bring transparency to government, and they’re delivering in a major way.
Trump’s team is digging through decades of hidden files that prior administrations kept sealed away from the American people.
And Tulsi Gabbard announced a bombshell new release of decades of hidden RFK assassination documents.
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has just released more than 60,000 pages of previously hidden documents related to Senator Robert F. Kennedy’s assassination.
This massive document dump follows an initial release of 10,000 documents last month on April 18th, which already sent shockwaves through historical researchers.
All of these files are now available to the public at archives.gov/rfk, giving Americans unprecedented access to information that’s been locked away for decades.
Unlike the JFK files, which were identified and released under federal law, the RFK assassination documents had never been digitized or made accessible to the public before President Trump and DNI Gabbard took action.
According to the release, “all files related to the assassination of Senator Kennedy have been sitting in various storage facilities across the federal government for decades and had never been digitized or accessible to the public before.”
President Trump’s Executive Order 14176 directed DNI Gabbard to lead the effort to digitize, declassify, and prepare all RFK assassination-related files for public release.
This required an exhaustive search through FBI and CIA warehouses for records never previously turned over to The National Archives.
The newly released files contain bombshell revelations, including never-before-seen details about the FBI’s investigation into RFK’s assassination.
These include internal FBI memos detailing the progress of the case and discussions of potential leads by various FBI offices.
Perhaps most disturbing of all, today’s release corroborates a shocking detail first uncovered in the initial batch of documents.
As was first uncovered in the initial tranche of 10,000 RFK files, “there were rumors circulating on foreign soil that Senator Kennedy had been shot one month prior to his true assassination date.”
UPDATE: 60,000 additional files related to the assassination of Senator Robert F. Kennedy are now online at https://t.co/bwLAh0CpAg.

This raises profound questions about who might have known about plans to assassinate the Senator weeks before the tragic event occurred.
The release also includes audio recordings of the Los Angeles Police Department’s interviews with convicted assassin Sirhan Sirhan.
Additionally, researchers can now access recordings of interviews with eyewitnesses who were present at the Ambassador Hotel when Kennedy was killed.
While some of these files were previously released by the LAPD or to individuals through Freedom of Information Act requests, this marks the first time all publicly available documents about RFK’s assassination are available in one centralized location.
“The newly released files will be uploaded with minimal redactions for privacy reasons — including redactions for Social Security Numbers, Tax Identification Numbers, and grand jury information,” according to the official news release.
As additional documents are discovered, they will be uploaded to the same location and announced on Gabbard’s social media accounts.
The American people deserve to know the truth about their history, especially when it involves the assassination of a presidential candidate who might have changed the course of the nation.
For decades, establishment figures in Washington kept these documents hidden from public view.
It took President Trump and his appointee, Tulsi Gabbard, to finally bring transparency to one of America’s most troubling historical events.
