The President stated on late Wednesday that he had signed the legislation overwhelmingly endorsed by Congress members that directs the Department of Justice to release more files related to the deceased financier, the late pedophile.

This decision comes after months of pushback from the chief executive and his supporters in the House and Senate that fractured his core constituency and generated conflicts with various established backers.

The president had resisted disclosing the Epstein documents, calling the issue a "false narrative" and condemning those who sought to release the records accessible, despite promising their publication on the political campaign.

Nevertheless he reversed course in the past few days after it was evident the House of Representatives would pass the legislation. Trump commented: "Everything is transparent".

It's not clear what the agency will make public in as a result of the legislation – the measure outlines a host of possible documents that need to be disclosed, but allows exclusions for certain documents.

The President Signs Bill to Force Release of Additional the financier Files

The bill requires the chief law enforcement officer to make non-classified Epstein-related documents publicly available "in an easily accessible digital format", including all investigations into Jeffrey Epstein, his colleague Ghislaine Maxwell, aircraft records and journey documentation, people referenced or named in relation to his crimes, entities that were linked to his trafficking or economic systems, exemption arrangements and additional legal settlements, official correspondence about legal actions, evidence of his detention and passing, and particulars about any file deletions.

The agency will have one month to provide the files. The bill includes some exceptions, such as redactions of victims' identifying information or private records, any descriptions of minor exploitation, releases that would compromise active investigations or court proceedings and depictions of death or exploitation.
