In a significant move, the Trump administration has made public 230,000 FBI files related to the surveillance of Martin Luther King Jr and his assassination in 1968. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard emphasized the importance of transparency in unveiling the detailed investigation into Dr. King’s tragic death at Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tenn. The King family expressed their gratitude for the disclosure, highlighting the personal nature of the files and urging respectful engagement with their enduring grief. This step follows Trump’s commitment to declassify documents linked to historical assassinations like JFK’s and marks a milestone in shedding light on pivotal events in America’s past.
