The President stated on Wednesday evening that he had endorsed the legislation decisively endorsed by Congress members that directs the justice department to make public more records concerning Jeffrey Epstein, the deceased child sexual abuser.

This decision follows an extended period of resistance from the chief executive and his backers in the House and Senate that split his core constituency and generated conflicts with certain loyal followers.

Donald Trump had resisted making public the Epstein files, calling the situation a "false narrative" and railing against those who sought to release the documents public, even though promising their release on the campaign trail.

Nevertheless he altered his position in the past few days after it become clear the legislative chamber would approve the legislation. Donald Trump commented: "Everything is transparent".

The details are unknown what the department will release in response to the bill – the measure details a range of possible documents that must be released, but allows exclusions for some materials.

Trump Endorses Measure to Require Disclosure of Additional Epstein Records

The measure requires the top justice official to make public Epstein-related documents open for review "available for online access", covering every inquiry into Epstein, his colleague his accomplice, flight logs and journey documentation, individuals mentioned or identified in relation to his illegal activities, organizations that were linked to his exploitation or financial networks, protection agreements and other plea agreements, organizational messages about charging decisions, records of his confinement and demise, and information about possible record elimination.

The agency will have thirty days to turn over the files. The measure includes certain exemptions, including redactions of victims' identifying information or personal files, any depictions of youth molestation, disclosures that would endanger current examinations or prosecutions and representations of fatality or mistreatment.
