National Archives Pact Let C.I.A. Withdraw Public Documents - New York Times

In case you missed it, this is huge.

Now, the administration can make history say anything they want it to.

The National Archives are the only way we ever get to the truth about anything, though it usually comes 50 years too late.

National Archives Pact Let C.I.A. Withdraw Public Documents - New York Times:
