DALLAS (AP) — More than 60 years after President John F. Kennedy was assassinated , conspiracy theories still swirl and any new glimpse into the fateful day of Nov. 22, 1963, in Dallas continues to fascinate . President-elect Donald Trump promised during his reelection campaign that he would declassify all of the remaining government records surrounding the assassination if he returned to office. He made a similar pledge during his first term, but ultimately bended to appeals from the CIA and FBI to keep some documents withheld. At this point, only a few thousand of the millions of governmental records related to the assassination have yet to be fully released, and those who have studied the records released so far say that even if the remaining files are declassified, the public shouldn't anticipate any earth-shattering revelations. “Anybody waiting for a smoking gun that’s going to turn this case upside down will be sorely disappointed,” said Gerald Posner, author of “Case Closed,” which concludes that assassin Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. Friday's 61st anniversary is expected to be marked with a moment of silence at 12:30 p.m. in Dealey Plaza, where Kennedy's motorcade was passing through when he was fatally shot. And throughout this week there have been events marking the anniversary. When Air Force One carrying Kennedy and first lady Jacqueline Kennedy touched down in Dallas , they were greeted by a clear sky and enthusiastic crowds. With a reelection campaign on the horizon the next year, they had gone to Texas on political fence-mending trip. But as the motorcade was finishing its parade route downtown, shots rang out from the Texas School Book Depository building. Police arrested 24-year-old Oswald and, two days later, nightclub owner Jack Ruby fatally shot Oswald during a jail transfer. A year after the assassination, the Warren Commission, which President Lyndon B. Johnson established to investigate the assassination, concluded that Oswald acted alone and there was no evidence of a conspiracy. But that hasn't quelled a web of alternative theories over the decades. In the early 1990s, the federal government mandated that all assassination-related documents be housed in a single collection in the National Archives and Records Administration. The collection of over 5 million records was required to be opened by 2017, barring any exemptions designated by the president. Trump, who took office for his first term in 2017, had boasted that he'd allow the release of all of the remaining records but ended up holding some back because of what he called the potential harm to national security. And while files have continued to be released during President Joe Biden's administration, some still remain unseen. The documents released over the last few years offer details on the way intelligence services operated at the time, and include CIA cables and memos discussing visits by Oswald to the Soviet and Cuban embassies during a trip to Mexico City just weeks before the assassination. The former Marine had previously defected to the Soviet Union before returning home to Texas. Mark S. Zaid, a national security attorney in Washington, said what's been released so far has contributed to the understanding of the time period, giving “a great picture” of what was happening during the Cold War and the activities of the CIA. Posner estimates that there are still about 3,000 to 4,000 documents in the collection that haven’t yet been fully released. Of those documents, some are still completely redacted while others just have small redactions, like someone's Social Security number. There are about 500 documents where all the information is redacted, Posner said, and those include Oswald's and Ruby’s tax returns. “If you have been following it, as I have and others have, you sort of are zeroed in on the pages you think might provide some additional information for history,” Posner said. Trump's transition team hasn’t responded to questions this week about his plans when he takes office. From the start, there were those who believed there had to be more to the story than just Oswald acting alone, said Stephen Fagin, curator of the Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza, which tells the story of the assassination from the building where Oswald made his sniper's perch. “People want to make sense of this and they want to find the solution that fits the crime," said Fagin, who said that while there are lingering questions, law enforcement made “a pretty compelling case” against Oswald. Larry J. Sabato, director of the University of Virginia Center for Politics, said his interest in the assassination dates back to the event itself, when he was a child. “It just seemed so fantastical that one very disturbed individual could end up pulling off the crime of the century," Sabato said. “But the more I studied it, the more I realized that is a very possible, maybe even probable in my view, hypothesis.”Australian golf’s biggest drawcard is also its most influential critic

( ) stock notched a record high on Monday after a Wall Street analyst said the consumer electronics giant is likely to have strong holiday season sales. Wedbush Securities analyst Daniel Ives reiterated his outperform rating on Apple stock with a 12-month price target of 300. On the , Apple stock jumped to a record high of 255.65 after the opening bell. But it couldn't hold those gains. In recent trades, Apple stock was down a fraction to 254.25. In a client note before the market open, Ives said he believes Apple will reach a $4 trillion market cap in early 2025. On Monday, its market cap was $3.84 trillion. Apple should benefit from an AI-driven upgrade cycle, which is just getting started with the iPhone 16, Ives said. "We would characterize demand for iPhone 16 so far since its September launch as slightly ahead to generally in line with expectations globally," Ives said. "We believe Apple is set to have a strong holiday season ahead as iPhone 16 upgrades across its installed base are trending well into Christmas, based on our recent Asia supply chain checks." Apple Stock On Tech Leaders List Apple has an installed base of 1.5 billion iPhones with about 300 million iPhones in the window of an upgrade opportunity, he said. Ives noted that Apple is slowly rolling out artificial intelligence features for its iPhones, starting with English-language markets. "Importantly, Apple Intelligence has not rolled out in China or many other countries with April the likely timetable for these AI launches along with a Chinese tech partner also named very soon to catalyze the timing of this rollout in this key region," Ives said. Last week, Reuters reported that ( ) and ByteDance about using their AI models in its iPhones in China. "This will be a multiyear AI journey that will define the future for Apple with its next generation chip architecture, hardware releases, and future iPhone models built around the AI foundation that many consumers will ultimately embrace," Ives said.

The Dallas Cowboys took another step toward oblivion with the MNF loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. They also lost another budding star. The Dallas Cowboys ended the 2023 calendar year on top of the world. They had managed to rally in the NFC East, stealing the division title from the Philadelphia Eagles after trailing them all season long. However, their moment in the sun was brief, spectacularly losing to Jordan Love in his first playoff game . Since then, the Cowboys went into a brutal off-season that saw analysts torch Jerry Jones’ moves . The Dallas Cowboys eventually paid CeeDee Lamb and Dak Prescott, but both ended up disappointing in one way or another. Then, when all hope was lost, DeMarvion Overshown gave the team a spark on Thanksgiving against the New York Giants , delivering a pick-six in one of the most impressive Cowboys plays of the season. His moment in the sun was destined to be brief. Update on DeMarvion Overshown Just one game after his breakout pick six against Drew Lock on Thanksgiving, Overshown suffered an injury that knocked him out of Monday Night Football’s bout against the Cincinnati Bengals. Fans hoped the injury would be short-term or, at worse, allow him to return in 2025. According to NFL reporters Jordan Schultz and Todd Archer on Twitter/X , however, the first outcome won’t be the case. Overshown tore his ACL, PCL, and MCL against the Bengals and his return may not be possible in 2025, with 2026 seen as most likely. Needless to say, his 2024 season is over. Cowboys in-house options to replace Overshown The Cowboys are past the trade deadline, so they cannot add a player via trade. The open market also is in a severe drought nearly halfway through December. However, the Cowboys have players on their roster whose sole purpose is to step in. Put simply, the options come down to backups Buddy Johnson, Nick Vigil, and Damone Clark. All three players currently sit as backup linebackers for the team. It will fall to defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer to figure out his best option. It likely will take the rest of the season to lock in a comfortable choice. However, Nick Vigil appears to be in last place to become the sub option. Vigil has a 40.3 PFF grade this season while Buddy Johnson and Damone Clark hover close to 70.0 PFF grades. At this point, either player. Both players could be auditioning for the opportunity to fill the spot going into next season, so it will be up to the two to put on the best show possible to conclude the year. Buddy Johnson should get the first look in the position and depending on how that goes, Damone Clark could get some looks. In other words, Zimmer could treat this as a starting competition in August.
