The FBI on Tuesday said it discovered 2,400 new records related to the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy as federal agencies work to comply with President Donald Trump’s executive order last month to release thousands of files.

The FBI said it’s working to transfer the records to the National Archives and Records Administration to be included in the declassification process.

The federal government in the early 1990s mandated that all documents related to the Nov. 22, 1963, assassination be housed in a single collection at the National Archives. And while the vast majority of the collection — which includes over 5 million pages of records — has been made public, researchers estimate that 3,000 files haven’t been released, either in whole or in part.

There is nothing at this point that will assuag "informed" perception. It will only shed light on how much the sheriff's office and the FBI were involved.

When was the tree cut down and who did that?

MLK was a problem for the government, so were JFK's intent. Knowing how far the establishment was going to go to maintain their narrative matters.

Full and redacted records would do a lot for government trust.
