I absolutely hate to agree with Rachel Maddow, but "they blew it." How the heck could Donald Trump tweet on Wednesday about how excited he was to allow the release, per federal law, of the remaining sealed papers in the National Archives which related to the assassination of JFK.
And yet on Thursday afternoon, it was announced that only some of them would be released. First, this is probably another example of paranoid intelligence agencies overclassifying things. Second, how could he have not known that would be result? I mean, is there anything that Trump won't change is mind on?
