(GoRealNewsNow.com) – Donald Trump’s recent appearance on Joe Rogan’s podcast has reignited the debate over government transparency and national security, as he revealed why he did not fully declassify the JFK assassination files during his presidency.
During the candid conversation with Rogan, Trump explained that he had partially opened the JFK files but faced resistance from trusted advisors, including former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
“I opened them up partially. I was met with — from good people, I mean, you know, look at me, good people, people that were well-meaning, Mike Pompeo was one of them, he’s a good person. Uh, they called me they said ‘Sir, would rather, have you not,'” Trump revealed.
The former president’s decision to withhold some documents was based on concerns about protecting the addresses of living individuals and potential national security implications.
However, Trump reassured listeners that he remains committed to full transparency, promising to declassify all remaining files if re-elected.
Trump’s revelation raises questions about the extent of government secrecy and the deep state’s influence on presidential decisions.
While he managed to declassify over 2,800 documents related to the JFK assassination in 2017, the fact that some files remain hidden has fueled speculation about what information they might contain.
“Addresses, people that are still living, there are people that are affected, um and there could be some national security reason that for you know that I don’t have to necessarily know about, but some very good talented people asked me not to do it,” Trump explained.
He added, “I opened it up and then they said would it be possible for us to do that a different day?”
The interview also touched on other classified information, including a file on Martin Luther King Jr., further highlighting the breadth of government secrets still kept from the American people.
Even though Biden released additional JFK-related documents in 2021 and 2022, his administration has been criticized for not being fully transparent.
The National Archives’ release of more documents on June 30, 2023, has done little to quell the demands for complete disclosure.
Moreover, Trump’s promise to declassify the documents immediately upon returning to office, describing it as a “cleansing,” resonates with many Americans who are tired of government secrecy and yearn for the truth about one of the most pivotal moments in U.S. history.
As the 2024 election approaches, Trump’s stance on declassification could become a key issue for voters who prioritize government transparency and accountability.
Americans deserve to know the full truth about their history, and Trump’s commitment to revealing these long-held secrets may be the key to finally closing the book on the JFK assassination mystery.
