Oliver Stone Testifies at Congressional Hearing on Newly Released JFK Files

The House Task Force on Declassification examines thousands of recently declassified documents, with no new evidence contradicting the conclusion that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone.

Oscar-winning filmmaker Oliver Stone testified before the House Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets about newly declassified JFK assassination files.
The hearing follows the National Archives' release of nearly 2,200 previously redacted documents, as directed by President Trump’s January 2025 executive order.
Stone, a long-time critic of the official narrative, called for a reopening of the investigation and criticized the CIA for a lack of transparency.
Scholars and experts maintain that the files do not contradict the Warren Commission’s finding that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in Kennedy's assassination.
Public skepticism persists, with the hearing reigniting debates about government transparency, conspiracy theories, and the role of intelligence agencies in the 1963 assassination.
