Fact Check: Trump’s JFK Video Release Claim False

Deccan Chronicle  

A video going viral on social media allegedly shows US President Donald Trump signing orders related to the Declassification of Records concerning the assassinations of former President John F. Kennedy, Former Senator Robert F. Kennedy, and civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. Fact: The video of former US President John F. Kennedy’s assassination had been online much before President Trump’s 23 January 2025 executive order to declassify records for transparency and public access. To verify the claim, we did a reverse image search of the viral video’s keyframes, which led us to a C-SPAN report showing U.S. President Donald Trump signing executive orders on 23 January 2025. This confirms that the assassination video of former US President John F. Kennedy was on the internet much before US President Donald Trump’s executive order on 23 January 2025 to declassify the assassination records.
