President Trump's recent release of thousands of pages of files was intended to shed light on the murder.

Posner has investigated the assassination and the conspiracy theories for decades.
He went through some of the new information released and explained why nothing changed his belief that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone when he shot the President.
We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview.
Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with author and journalist Gerald Posner. We will get even more of his take on the JFK assassination and why he thinks some of the most popular conspiracy theories cannot be true.

Newsmax agrees to $67 million settlement with Dominion over 2020 voter fraud claims
Newsmax, the conservative cable news channel loyal to President Trump, has agreed to pay Dominion Voting Systems $67 million to settle a lawsuit it brought against the network over its coverage of the 2020 election. Dominion sued Newsmax in 2021 over a series of false claims alleging the company's machines were manipulated to swing votes in former President Biden's favor and against Trump in the 2020 election. A judge in Delaware ruled in April the statements made on Newsmax's air were defamatory, but a trial in the case was delayed for months. The channel said on Monday the settlement amount will be paid out in installments over three fiscal years, which it 'expects to fund through revenues.' 'Newsmax believed it was critically important for the American people to hear both sides of the election disputes that arose in 2020,' the network said in a statement it published on its website on Monday. 'We stand by our coverage as fair, balanced, and conducted within professional standards of journalism.' Newsmax, a smaller conservative media channel featuring a bevy of pro-Trump hosts, gained notoriety after the 2020 election after it was promoted by the president for its coverage his false claims of widespread voter fraud and the coronavirus pandemic. Dominion was paid a separate settlement in 2023 by Fox News, which it also sued over that network's coverage of the 2020 election and Trump's claims of voter fraud.

Newsmax to pay $67M settlement to Dominion Voting Systems over 2020 election lies
Conservative cable network Newsmax has settled a defamation lawsuit brought by voting-machine company Dominion Voting Systems over the airing of 2020 election lies, the company said in a regulatory filing Monday. It will pay $67 million over the next two fiscal years. Why it matters: It's the second major defamation lawsuit the company has settled following allegations that it aired falsehoods related to the 2020 election. Newsmax settled a similar lawsuit brought by voting-machine company Smartmatic last year for $40 million. Zoom in: It's unclear how Newsmax and Dominion came to the $67 million dollar amount. In the filing, Newsmax said it would be making the payments to Dominion in three installments: $27 million paid on Aug. 15; $20 million on or before Jan. 15, 2026; and $20 million on or before Jan. 15, 2027. The statement does not include any information that indicates Newsmax would be required to issue an on-air retraction or apology to Dominion. What they're saying: A Dominion spokesperson said the company is "pleased to have settled this matter." In a statement posted to its website, Newsmax defended itself and accused the court and judge overseeing the case of undermining "the role of the press in a free society." "Newsmax believed it was critically important for the American people to hear both sides of the election disputes that arose in 2020. We stand by our coverage as fair, balanced, and conducted within professional standards of journalism," Newsmax said. Zoom out: Both settlements allow Newsmax, which recently went public, to avoid high-profile trials over the airing of false claims that former President Joe Biden's 2020 election victory was rigged. The big picture: Newsmax's settlement represents the latest outcome from a long list of litigation waged by Smartmatic and Dominion against conservative media companies and personalities following the 2020 election.

States battle Trump over $1b in victim aid tied to immigration

Enter Email Sign Up Including Monday's suit, Neronha's office has The Victims of Crime Act, also known as VOCA, was enacted in 1984 by President Ronald Reagan, and created a series of grant programs to enable states to provide critical resources and services to victims and Related : Advertisement Congress has required the distribution of nearly all VOCA funding to states based on fixed statutory formulas, but funds have declined steadily since 2018 under both Trump and former President Joe Biden. In 2021, Biden signed a bill into law to Money for the fund is raised through fines and penalties collected from federal criminal cases that have to do with white-collar crimes, corporate fraud, and other offenses. Funds do not come from American taxpayers. The funding streams for VOCA total more than $1 billion per year nationwide. States use these funds to assist nearly 9 million crime victims per year, and to provide compensation for more than 200,000 victims' claims per year. Rhode Island Attorney General Peter F. Neronha's office has taken legal action against the Trump administration 33 times. Lane Turner/Globe Staff In 2024, Rhode Island alone received nearly $3 million in VOCA victim assistance funds, and close to $300,000 in victim compensation funds. During that same year, VOCA assistance funds were used to provide services to approximately 41,015 individuals through dozens of nonprofits, and 635 individuals received VOCA compensation payments through the State's Crime Victim Compensation Program. Trump's Department of Justice has declared that these funds will be blocked from states, along with the victims and survivors they serve, unless states comply with the administration's immigration enforcement priorities. To receive these funds, states must assist the US Department of Homeland Security with civil immigration enforcement efforts, which is a responsibility of the federal government. Advertisement 'Rhode Island consistently cooperates with all federal law enforcement agencies, as required by federal law,' said Neronha. 'What we won't, and can't do legally, is divert important state law enforcement resources to do the federal government's civil immigration law bidding.' The suit comes less than a week after US Attorney General Related : Speaking about Monday's lawsuit, Neronha said this latest directive from the Trump administration to states conflicts with core principles of American governance, the Constitution's separation of powers, and federalism. Plus, Congress did not authorize the Justice Department to impose conditions on these grant programs, he said. 'In this country, above all else, we expect our government to protect us, and this latest move flies in the face of that expectation,' said Neronha. 'We can and must support crime victims, and support must not be illegally tethered to federal policies. 'We are on the right side of the law here, and we will prevail,' Neronha said.
