The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) has released a second batch of documents related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
This follows President Donald Trump’s January 23, 2025, executive order requiring the full declassification of all remaining records concerning the assassinations of both JFK and his brother, Robert F. Kennedy.
The latest release includes more than 31,400 pages across 1,059 PDF files, adding to the initial batch made on Wednesday evening, which contained 32,000 pages spanning 1,123 PDF files.
These files, part of the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection, are accessible online at the National Archives (JFK Release 2025) or in person at the National Archives at College Park, Maryland.
“Per DNI, there are still more docs being uploaded to archives website. They are scanning and uploading in real time. ALL documents can be viewed in person at the [National Archives] facility in College Park, Maryland if you don’t want to wait for them to be uploaded online. Please share this if you see people asking,” Rep. Anna Paulina wrote.

According to Luna, “The file I am particularly interested is a CIA IG report from whistleblowers alleging that the CIA hid information from Congress ref JFK assassination as it implicated them (shortly after the assassination). We were given this as a tip and there is actually a document we are currently tracking down.”

DNI Tulsi Gabbard also released the following statement following the release of first batch:
President Donald J. Trump promised maximum transparency and a commitment to rebuild the trust of the American people in the Intelligence Community (IC) and federal agencies. Part of that promise was to fully release previously-classified records related to the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, Senator Robert F. Kennedy, and the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
President Trump’s Executive Order 14176 stated, “the continued redaction and withholding of information from records pertaining to the assassination of JFK is not consistent with the public interest and the release of these records is long overdue.” The President announced that these records should be released without redactions on Tuesday, March 18.
Upon receiving the President’s decision, Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard immediately sent out a directive across the IC conveying his directive to provide all unredacted records within the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection to the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) for immediate release.
Starting today, the records will be available to access either online at archives.gov/fjfk, or in person, via hard copy or on analog media formats, accessible to the American people at National Archives at College Park, MD. Records that are currently only available for in-person viewing are being digitized and will be uploaded to the archives.gov/jfk repository in the coming days. DNI Gabbard will post updates on X (@DNIGabbard) and Truth Social (@DN/TulsiGabbard) as the files are released. The files will also be available on the White House’s website.
This release consists of approximately 80,000 pages of previously-classified records that will be published with no redactions. Additional documents withheld under court seal or for grand jury secrecy, and records subject to section 6103 of the Internal Revenue Code, must be unsealed before release. NARA is working with the Department of Justice to expedite the unsealing of these records. Grand juries from many years ago have already seen them, so most of this information is already out, but regardless of this, this information will be immediately released upon the direction of the Court.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
