Fox News
President Donald Trump made good on a promise to release thousands of files related to John F. Kennedy's assassination.
And though there did not appear to be revelatory information in the initial release, Rep. Steve Cohen, D-Tenn., a progressive Democrat who co-sponsored legislation to publicize the Kennedy files, was among those who praised the move. Elizabeth Elkind is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital leading coverage of the House of Representatives. Previous digital bylines seen at Daily Mail and CBS News.
"It’s too soon to know whether there’s much in the documents released today, but it is a good sign that some progress toward the goal of full disclosure is under way," Cohen said Tuesday night. "The assassinations of the 1960s need to be understood in their full historical context and the documents being released may help us get there."
