The President declared on late Wednesday that he had approved the measure resoundingly approved by US legislators that mandates the federal justice agency to make public more documents concerning the deceased financier, the late pedophile.

The move arrives after months of pushback from the president and his political allies in the House and Senate that fractured his core constituency and caused divisions with certain loyal followers.

Donald Trump had resisted disclosing the Epstein documents, describing the issue a "fabrication" and condemning those who sought to release the documents public, even though promising their publication on the political campaign.

Nevertheless he altered his position in the past few days after it was evident the House would approve the measure. The president said: "We have nothing to hide".

The details are unknown what the justice department will make public in as a result of the legislation – the measure outlines a range of possible documents that should be made public, but provides exceptions for certain documents.

The President Approves Measure to Force Disclosure of Additional Epstein Documents

The bill requires the chief law enforcement officer to make public related documents accessible to the public "in an easily accessible digital format", encompassing each examination into Epstein, his colleague Maxwell, travel documentation and movement logs, people referenced or named in connection with his crimes, organizations that were tied to his trafficking or financial networks, protection agreements and further court deals, official correspondence about legal actions, evidence of his confinement and demise, and particulars about potential document destruction.

The department will have 30 days to turn over the records. The bill includes some exceptions, encompassing removals of personal details of victims or individual documents, any representations of minor exploitation, disclosures that would endanger ongoing inquiries or legal cases and representations of death or exploitation.
