The Trump administration released thousands of pages of files this week related to the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy.
Why it matters: The approximately 80,000 pages released were previously classified and don't have any redactions, Tulsi Gabbard, director of national intelligence, said in a statement.
Zoom in: Kennedy was killed on Nov. 22, 1963, as he rode in an open-air limousine through Dealey Plaza in Dallas.
Driving the news: The National Archives are digitizing the Warren Commission records that detail the group's investigation, along with information received from federal agencies, photos, recordings and commission hearings.
The intrigue: Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., JFK's nephew, has long called for more disclosure about the assassination, believing his uncle's death to be part of a broader conspiracy.
Between the lines: So far, the documents haven't revealed anything unexpected.
Nothing in the records challenges the long-held understanding that Kennedy's assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald, acted alone.
