Trump signs bill to force the release of Epstein files

President Trump has signed legislation that directs the Justice Department to release files on convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. After fighting the release of files for months, the president had no choice but to sign the bill. Every member of Congress, except for one, voted for it. In the end, Donald Trump insisted the Epstein matter had become a distraction and said he wanted to move on. With the bill signed, the Justice Department is required to release all files and communications related to Epstein, including information about his death in federal prison, within 30 days.
