The President announced on Wednesday evening that he had endorsed the measure decisively endorsed by Congress members that mandates the justice department to release more records concerning the convicted sex offender, the dead pedophile.

The move follows weeks of opposition from the chief executive and his supporters in the House and Senate that fractured his core constituency and generated conflicts with various established backers.

Trump had opposed disclosing the Epstein documents, labeling the situation a "hoax" and condemning those who sought to release the records accessible, despite pledging their release on the election circuit.

However he reversed course in recent days after it became apparent the House of Representatives would approve the bill. Trump said: "There are no secrets".

It's not clear what the justice department will disclose in response to the measure – the bill specifies a variety of various records that need to be disclosed, but allows exclusions for certain documents.

Trump Approves Measure to Compel Disclosure of Additional Jeffrey Epstein Files

The legislation mandates the chief law enforcement officer to make non-classified Epstein-related records accessible to the public "in a searchable and downloadable format", covering each examination into Jeffrey Epstein, his associate Maxwell, aircraft records and journey documentation, people mentioned or identified in association with his offenses, organizations that were linked to his trafficking or money operations, protection agreements and further court deals, organizational messages about legal actions, evidence of his imprisonment and passing, and details about any file deletions.

The agency will have one month to provide the records. The measure includes certain exemptions, including redactions of personal details of victims or individual documents, any descriptions of child sexual abuse, disclosures that would endanger active investigations or prosecutions and representations of fatality or mistreatment.
