The president made an order to his administration to release the files last month, writing on Truth Social, &#8220;I have been asked by many people about the life and times of Amelia Earhart, such an interesting story.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" publication=\"irishstar\">He continued, &#8220;Amelia made it almost three-quarters around the World before she suddenly, and without notice, vanished, never to be seen again.
