Donald Trump declared on Wednesday evening that he had signed the bill overwhelmingly passed by Congress members that instructs the federal justice agency to release more records concerning the convicted sex offender, the dead pedophile.
The move follows weeks of resistance from the president and his supporters in Congress that divided his Maga base and created rifts with various established backers.
The president had fought against disclosing the Epstein documents, labeling the issue a "hoax" and railing against those who sought to release the files available, even though promising their disclosure on the election circuit.
But he reversed course in the last week after it became apparent the House of Representatives would endorse the measure. Trump commented: "Everything is transparent".
The specifics remain uncertain what the department will disclose in response to the measure – the measure details a variety of various records that must be released, but includes exemptions for specific records.
The bill requires the attorney general to make unclassified related records open for review "in a searchable and downloadable format", encompassing all investigations into Jeffrey Epstein, his associate Ghislaine Maxwell, flight logs and movement logs, people mentioned or identified in relation to his crimes, institutions that were linked to his exploitation or economic systems, exemption arrangements and further court deals, internal communications about prosecution choices, documentation of his confinement and passing, and particulars about any file deletions.
The agency will have thirty days to turn over the documents. The measure includes some exceptions, including redactions of personal details of victims or individual documents, any depictions of minor exploitation, releases that would compromise active investigations or court proceedings and depictions of demise or exploitation.
