Trump pledged to open classified JFK assassination files. What happened to that?

I do understand that information from that event has standing today and cannot be released yet. I also understand that it is been acted upon. So from even that perspective, disclosure is likely only months away. If it were only about Oswald then the hold is inexplicable. There really has to be a real and present value. Everyone then is now dead. We understand the chain of custody under the aegis of the CIA. It was also reported that CIA tardiness was met with a Marine recovery force who got the files. Either way Trump does have the scoop. Jusyt one more loose end not read...

This Is What Makes the Glock 42 .380 ACP So Different
Kyle Mizokami, The National Interest - 20 hours ago
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, World* [image: https://us.glock.com/en/pistols/g42] It is all about the ammo. *Key point: *Glock makes very good guns. However, not all of them use the same sized ammunition. A combination of the successful Glock pistol design and a caliber invented by armsman John Moses Browning, the Glock 42 is certainly worth taking a look at. The pistol combines the Austrian gun manufacturer’s gun operating system with the .380 ACP pistol cartridge. The result is both a pistol for concealed carriers who desire a low recoil pistol and the smallest pistol in Glock’...
