Today, CIA released 54 declassified documents related to Senator Robert F. Kennedy’s assassination consistent with President Donald J. Trump’s Executive Order 14176. This release provides an additional 1,450 pages of historic material that the Agency is making available to the public for the very first time.
These documents complement the thousands of pages that CIA provided to the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) and National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) as part of their public releases related to former President John F. Kennedy from earlier this year. The records reveal for the first time that Senator Kennedy shared his experiences traveling to the former Soviet Union with CIA, reflecting his patriotic commitment to serving his country.
Given the CIA's job is to explicitly break the law where it serves our national interest, I wonder if anything will ever obligate them to release self-incriminating material. I feel a bit silly for thinking anything would come from these document releases. It does suggest however, if this is really all they know, a degree of incompetence that the insufficient official stories represent the best our intelligence has to offer.
