The President stated on Wednesday evening that he had approved the bill resoundingly endorsed by Congress members that mandates the justice department to release more documents related to the convicted sex offender, the dead child sexual abuser.

The move arrives after weeks of pushback from the president and his backers in the legislature that split his Maga base and created rifts with certain loyal followers.

Donald Trump had opposed disclosing the Epstein documents, calling the matter a "false narrative" and criticizing those who attempted to publish the records accessible, despite vowing their publication on the election circuit.

Nevertheless he changed direction in the last week after it was evident the legislative chamber would endorse the legislation. Donald Trump said: "There are no secrets".

It's not clear what the agency will release in as a result of the bill – the legislation specifies a variety of various records that must be released, but allows exclusions for specific records.

Donald Trump Endorses Legislation to Force Disclosure of Further Epstein Documents

The legislation calls for the chief law enforcement officer to make public Epstein-related files open for review "in a searchable and downloadable format", including all investigations into Epstein, his colleague Ghislaine Maxwell, travel documentation and travel records, persons cited or listed in connection with his illegal activities, organizations that were tied to his trafficking or money operations, immunity deals and other plea agreements, internal communications about legal actions, evidence of his confinement and passing, and information about possible record elimination.

The agency will have thirty days to turn over the documents. The legislation contains specific exclusions, including deletions of personal details of victims or private records, any representations of youth molestation, releases that would jeopardize active investigations or legal cases and descriptions of fatality or abuse.
