JFK assassination and controversies
John F. Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963 in Texas, where he went for election work.
In the investigation conducted by the Supreme Court Chief Justice Earl Warren, it was concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald, who carried out the assassination, acted alone. However, the investigation was criticized for alleged incompleteness, and a commission established in the Congress later declared that the assassination could be a conspiracy.

Former US President Donald Trump disclosed thousands of classified documents in 2017, while keeping some of them secret for national security reasons. The Joe Biden administration, on the other hand, released a series of confidential documents in December 2021 regarding the assassination of 35th US President John F. Kennedy in 1963.
