The US leader stated on late Wednesday that he had endorsed the measure overwhelmingly approved by American lawmakers that instructs the Department of Justice to make public more files concerning the convicted sex offender, the dead pedophile.

The move arrives after weeks of opposition from the chief executive and his political allies in the legislature that split his core constituency and generated conflicts with certain loyal followers.

Trump had fought against disclosing the Epstein documents, calling the matter a "hoax" and railing against those who wanted to make the documents public, notwithstanding promising their release on the campaign trail.

However he reversed course in the last week after it become clear the legislative chamber would approve the bill. The president stated: "Everything is transparent".

The specifics remain uncertain what the agency will make public in as a result of the measure – the bill specifies a variety of potential items that must be released, but allows exclusions for specific records.

The bill calls for the chief law enforcement officer to make public Epstein-related records accessible to the public "in a searchable and downloadable format", covering all investigations into Epstein, his associate his accomplice, flight logs and journey documentation, individuals cited or listed in relation to his crimes, entities that were linked to his human trafficking or economic systems, protection agreements and other plea agreements, official correspondence about prosecution choices, documentation of his detention and death, and details about possible record elimination.

The agency will have thirty days to turn over the documents. The legislation contains certain exemptions, such as removals of personal details of victims or individual documents, any descriptions of minor exploitation, releases that would compromise active investigations or court proceedings and representations of demise or abuse.
