The country's largest online source of JFK assassination records is suing President Joe Biden and the National Archives to force the federal government to release all remaining documents related to the most mysterious murder of a U.S. president nearly 60 years ago. “This is about our history and our right to know it,” said Morley, the author of the JFK Facts blog. The National Archives and Records Administration, the agency in charge of the JFK documents, also said it’s complying with the law and the procedures Biden outlined. JFK assassination historian David Talbot, a Trump critic, said he sees an irony in the two cases. Uscinski said he’s hesitant to draw a direct line between lack of trust in the government and the refusal to release the JFK records, but he argued the feds essentially have themselves to blame.

The Biden administration on Wednesday released over 1,000 previously classified documents relating to the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy. The 1,491 documents include filings from the CIA, FBI, State Department and other federal agencies. The documents say they spoke about Oswald's efforts to get a visa to go to the Soviet Union. Under a 1992 law inspired by the Oliver Stone movie "JFK," the National Archives was supposed to have released all of the remaining classified records by October 2017. The National Archives released a large tranche of documents that month, but held back others at the request of then-President Donald Trump.

It brought justifiable scrutiny on the law enforcement agencies that should have prevented it as well as those that investigated it. One lesson law enforcement learned from Dallas and its aftermath is how not to investigate an assassination. The Kennedy investigation devolved into a fiasco. The Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Secret Service, the Dallas police and sheriff offices all argued with each other.
