24 of our favourite non-serious Bluesky reactions to Trump declassifying the JFK files
The assassination of John F. Kennedy (JFK) by Lee Harvey Oswald on 22nd November 1963 was described as ‘the shot heard around the world’. There’s also a non-zero chance that it’s the historical event that has generated the most conspiracy theories – and that’s saying a lot considering the moon landings are a thing.
So, it’s not surprising that people have been eagerly anticipating the declassification of the JFK files by the Trump administration, which finally happened on Wednesday.
Many of the documents had already been made public by Joe Biden, and some are still redacted.
In fact, some of the redacted documents in the latest declassification have previously been released unredacted – and several social security numbers that should have been made private were on display for at least the first few hours.
Some people suggested the declassification might be a distraction.
While the assassination was obviously a terrible event, it’s not social media’s way to take anything completely seriously, so we’ve gathered some of the funniest responses.
