Trump says he would sign bill releasing Epstein files

President Trump reversed his opposition and pledged to sign a bill mandating the DOJ to release all unclassified Epstein-related documents if passed by Congress.

  • On Monday, President Donald Trump said he will sign the bipartisan disclosure bill forcing the Department of Justice to release all Jeffrey Epstein files if it reaches his desk.
  • After weeks of White House resistance, Trump and advisers held late meetings including in the Situation Room and pressed allies to block a procedural vote, while Speaker Mike Johnson delayed the House session over six weeks.
  • The House could vote as soon as Tuesday after 218 members forced a discharge petition, with the bill compelling the Department of Justice to release all Epstein files within 15 days.
  • Mr. Trump's turnaround eased pressure on some House Republicans, while sponsors and survivors, including Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene , planned a news conference ahead of Tuesday's vote.
  • The White House memo singled out prominent Democrats Bill Clinton, Reid Hoffman and Larry Summers for scrutiny, while Delegate Stacey Plaskett's texts with Epstein emerged this past week and former prosecutors warned DOJ might withhold records during active probes.
