The group in charge of carrying out Donald Trump's executive order to declassify 'six decades of secrecy' has made a promise to the public.

Last month, the President of the United States signed an executive order titled 'Declassification of Records Concerning the Assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, Senator Robert F. Kennedy, and the Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King Jr.'.

The order was put in place because 'the victims' families and the American people deserve the truth'.

House Oversight Chairman James Comer has put together a task force who are aiming to carry out the 78-year-old's orders.

Also before the inauguration, Trump said he would release documents related to 'Epstein Island' and information on Area 51.

Chairwoman for the Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, told Daily Mail podcast Welcome to MAGAland: "I don't think the government's been 100 percent truthful with the American people about what may or may not exist out there, especially in Area 51."

Meanwhile, Trump has explained why he wants the files to be released.

"I have now determined that the continued redaction and withholding of information from records pertaining to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy is not consistent with the public interest and the release of these records is long overdue," he said.

"And although no Act of Congress directs the release of information pertaining to the assassinations of Senator Robert F. Kennedy and the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., I have determined that the release of all records in the Federal Government's possession pertaining to each of those assassinations is also in the public interest."

But Comer also noted: "When President Trump ordered the release of the JFK assassination files and classified documents, what we learned a week and a half later is the agency didn't release all the documents.

"There were still 1000s of more pages.

"So we felt like this task force could follow up, and ensure that these agencies do what they're supposed to do, because what we've seen over the past two decades in Washington is these bureaucrats don't comply with Congress.

"They don't obey the president. They have their own agenda.

"They're all liberal activists and they're arrogant.

"They don't think the American people deserve the truth.

"They think they could spend tax dollars any way they want, the law doesn't apply to them."

Before becoming president, Trump promised: "When I return to the White House, I will declassify and unseal all JFK assassination related documents. It’s been 60 years, time for the American people to know the TRUTH!"
