The US leader declared on Wednesday evening that he had approved the legislation resoundingly passed by American lawmakers that instructs the federal justice agency to disclose more records concerning the deceased financier, the dead sex offender.

The move comes after an extended period of opposition from the chief executive and his political allies in the House and Senate that fractured his Maga base and created rifts with some of his longtime supporters.

The president had fought against releasing the Epstein documents, labeling the matter a "false narrative" and railing against those who sought to release the documents public, even though pledging their publication on the election circuit.

Nevertheless he altered his position in recent days after it become clear the House of Representatives would pass the measure. Trump stated: "Everything is transparent".

The specifics remain uncertain what the justice department will make public in following the legislation – the measure details a host of possible documents that must be released, but allows exclusions for specific records.

The President Endorses Measure to Compel Release of Additional the financier Documents

The measure mandates the attorney general to make public Epstein-related documents accessible to the public "in an easily accessible digital format", covering all investigations into Jeffrey Epstein, his colleague Maxwell, aircraft records and movement logs, persons referenced or named in connection with his illegal activities, entities that were connected with his trafficking or money operations, protection agreements and other plea agreements, organizational messages about prosecution choices, evidence of his imprisonment and passing, and details about potential document destruction.

The justice department will have thirty days to provide the files. The measure includes some exceptions, such as redactions of personal details of victims or individual documents, any descriptions of minor exploitation, publications that would endanger active investigations or court proceedings and descriptions of fatality or exploitation.
