President Approves Measure to Disclose Additional Epstein Files After Months of Pushback

Donald Trump announced on Wednesday night that he had signed the bill resoundingly endorsed by US legislators that directs the federal justice agency to disclose more documents related to the deceased financier, the late pedophile.

This decision arrives after months of opposition from the president and his supporters in the House and Senate that split his political supporters and generated conflicts with certain loyal followers.

The president had resisted making public the Epstein files, labeling the situation a "false narrative" and criticizing those who sought to release the records accessible, notwithstanding vowing their release on the political campaign.

However he reversed course in the past few days after it was evident the House of Representatives would endorse the measure. Donald Trump stated: "We have nothing to hide".

It's not clear what the department will make public in following the measure – the measure outlines a host of various records that need to be disclosed, but provides exceptions for specific records.

Donald Trump Endorses Bill to Force Release of Further Jeffrey Epstein Files

The bill calls for the attorney general to make unclassified related files accessible to the public "available for online access", including all investigations into Epstein, his associate his accomplice, aircraft records and travel records, persons cited or listed in connection with his offenses, organizations that were tied to his human trafficking or money operations, exemption arrangements and additional legal settlements, organizational messages about charging decisions, documentation of his imprisonment and passing, and details about potential document destruction.

The agency will have one month to turn over the files. The measure contains specific exclusions, including redactions of victims' identifying information or personal files, any representations of minor exploitation, disclosures that would jeopardize current examinations or prosecutions and depictions of death or exploitation.
