Donald Trump stated on Wednesday night that he had endorsed the legislation decisively passed by US legislators that directs the Department of Justice to release more records concerning the convicted sex offender, the deceased child sexual abuser.

The move follows weeks of resistance from the leader and his political allies in Congress that split his core constituency and generated conflicts with some of his longtime supporters.

The president had fought against disclosing the Epstein documents, labeling the situation a "fabrication" and criticizing those who sought to release the records accessible, despite vowing their release on the election circuit.

But he changed direction in the last week after it become clear the legislative chamber would pass the bill. Trump stated: "Everything is transparent".

The specifics remain uncertain what the department will disclose in as a result of the legislation – the bill details a host of possible documents that need to be disclosed, but includes exemptions for certain documents.

Trump Signs Bill to Compel Publication of More Epstein Files

The bill requires the chief law enforcement officer to make public Epstein-connected records accessible to the public "in an easily accessible digital format", encompassing each examination into Jeffrey Epstein, his associate his accomplice, flight logs and movement logs, people cited or listed in relation to his crimes, entities that were linked to his exploitation or financial networks, exemption arrangements and further court deals, internal communications about prosecution choices, records of his imprisonment and passing, and particulars about possible record elimination.

The agency will have 30 days to turn over the documents. The bill contains some exceptions, such as removals of personal details of victims or personal files, any descriptions of child sexual abuse, publications that would endanger current examinations or legal cases and descriptions of death or mistreatment.
