If that was true we'd have all the Kennedy assassination docs.
- aftbit 3y agoThey're probably exempted under: >25X7 – reveal information that would impair the current ability of U.S. government officials to protect the President, Vice President, and other protectees for whom protection services, in the interest of national security, are authorized;

So, like, we will never get the discussions around, say, them using smallpox against North Korea.
