President Signs Measure to Disclose Additional Jeffrey Epstein Files After Period of Pushback

The President declared on Wednesday night that he had endorsed the bill decisively passed by American lawmakers that mandates the Department of Justice to make public more files regarding the convicted sex offender, the dead sex offender.

The move follows an extended period of resistance from the chief executive and his backers in the House and Senate that divided his Maga base and caused divisions with certain loyal followers.

Trump had opposed disclosing the Epstein files, describing the situation a "fabrication" and condemning those who attempted to publish the files available, despite promising their publication on the election circuit.

However he changed direction in the past few days after it became apparent the House of Representatives would endorse the legislation. Trump commented: "We have nothing to hide".

It's not clear what the justice department will make public in as a result of the measure – the bill outlines a host of possible documents that need to be disclosed, but includes exemptions for certain documents.

Trump Signs Legislation to Require Disclosure of More Jeffrey Epstein Records

The measure calls for the attorney general to make non-classified Epstein-related files publicly available "available for online access", including every inquiry into Epstein, his associate his accomplice, travel documentation and movement logs, individuals cited or listed in relation to his offenses, organizations that were tied to his human trafficking or money operations, immunity deals and other plea agreements, official correspondence about prosecution choices, evidence of his imprisonment and death, and particulars about potential document destruction.

The department will have 30 days to submit the documents. The bill provides for certain exemptions, including redactions of victims' identifying information or individual documents, any representations of child sexual abuse, releases that would endanger ongoing inquiries or prosecutions and representations of demise or mistreatment.
