The President announced on late Wednesday that he had endorsed the legislation decisively approved by Congress members that mandates the Department of Justice to disclose more documents related to the deceased financier, the late sex offender.

The move comes after months of opposition from the president and his supporters in Congress that split his political supporters and caused divisions with various established backers.

Trump had resisted making public the Epstein documents, describing the matter a "fabrication" and condemning those who attempted to publish the documents public, even though vowing their release on the campaign trail.

However he reversed course in recent days after it become clear the House of Representatives would approve the measure. Donald Trump stated: "There are no secrets".

The details are unknown what the agency will release in as a result of the bill – the measure details a host of potential items that should be made public, but allows exclusions for specific records.

Donald Trump Approves Measure to Compel Release of Additional Epstein Files

The bill calls for the attorney general to make unclassified Epstein-connected files publicly available "in an easily accessible digital format", encompassing every inquiry into Jeffrey Epstein, his colleague his accomplice, flight logs and movement logs, persons cited or listed in connection with his illegal activities, entities that were linked to his trafficking or financial networks, protection agreements and other plea agreements, internal communications about prosecution choices, records of his detention and passing, and information about possible record elimination.

The department will have 30 days to submit the records. The bill provides for specific exclusions, encompassing deletions of confidential victim data or private records, any depictions of child sexual abuse, publications that would endanger current examinations or court proceedings and depictions of fatality or exploitation.
