Trump supporters spread false JFK letter claims about Biden

Supporters of Donald Trump are sharing a document that they claim shows John F. Kennedy Jr. called President Joe Biden a "traitor." This follows the release of thousands of documents related to the assassination of JFK. The document being promoted on social media is not new. It has been available for years and is not part of the recent release. Many users have pointed out that it is a forged letter, and the FBI has confirmed that they never found evidence to prove JFK Jr. wrote it. Ed Krassenstein, a social media user, highlighted that the letter was actually signed by "an unknown subject." The FBI had previously investigated the letter as a potential death threat to Biden, who was a senator at the time. However, they later dismissed it as a hoax. The recent surge in interest around JFK documents comes after a large collection was released. This collection was mandated by the federal government in the early 1990s. Former President Trump had promised to make all documents public but ultimately withheld some due to national security concerns. While some documents have been made available during President Biden's time in office, many remain unreleased.
