Not sure. Maybe they still held power. Q did point out that using classification to cover for embarrassment or whatever made that kind of classification illegal, although I do not remember that being said specifically about JFK.

Part of the Q operation is to expose things so that the enemy has nothing effective to counter with, and that includes awakening the public in a way that gets to the majority of people, as opposed to being limited to forums like this. That is never going to happen on a timescale that will make us happy, but it will eventually succeed, unlike what people have tried in the past and failed. Exposing things too quickly ends up acting like a controlled forest burn. It wastes the opportunity for the spread to go further. The majority will not accept it, and it becomes old news. Q seems to be ordering and timing things so that progress keeps moving forward, however slow it is.
