The President stated on Wednesday evening that he had approved the legislation decisively approved by American lawmakers that instructs the federal justice agency to make public more records regarding the deceased financier, the late sex offender.

This decision follows months of pushback from the chief executive and his backers in Congress that divided his core constituency and created rifts with various established backers.

The president had opposed making public the Epstein documents, describing the matter a "fabrication" and criticizing those who attempted to publish the records accessible, despite pledging their disclosure on the election circuit.

Nevertheless he changed direction in the last week after it became apparent the House of Representatives would pass the legislation. Trump stated: "There are no secrets".

The details are unknown what the agency will disclose in following the bill – the measure details a host of possible documents that should be made public, but provides exceptions for certain documents.

Trump Signs Legislation to Require Publication of Further Epstein Records

The legislation calls for the chief law enforcement officer to make non-classified Epstein-connected files open for review "available for online access", covering all investigations into Epstein, his associate Maxwell, aircraft records and journey documentation, persons cited or listed in association with his offenses, institutions that were tied to his trafficking or money operations, protection agreements and additional legal settlements, official correspondence about charging decisions, evidence of his detention and demise, and details about potential document destruction.

The justice department will have thirty days to submit the files. The bill includes some exceptions, such as redactions of victims' identifying information or personal files, any representations of youth molestation, disclosures that would jeopardize ongoing inquiries or prosecutions and depictions of fatality or exploitation.
