The Senate agreed to pass the measure by unanimous consent, clearing it for President Donald Trump’s signature, marking a major bipartisan win for transparency.

🔥 What Are The Epstein Files

The Epstein Files, comprising thousands of pages, are court documents stemming from a civil lawsuit filed by a victim, Virginia Giuffre, against Epstein’s associate, Ghislaine Maxwell. The documents include deposition transcripts, interview records, and email correspondence related to the network of powerful and wealthy individuals allegedly linked to Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operations.

🔥 Trump's Involvement Alleged

Emails released by the House Oversight Committee alleged President Trump knew about Epstein’s abuse and "spent hours" with a sex trafficking victim at Epstein's house. Trump has adamantly denied any knowledge of the abuse, calling the emails a politically motivated "hoax" orchestrated by Democrats to distract from the government shutdown.

🔥 Mutual Political Accusations

The documents have intensified the political feud between Republicans and Democrats, with both parties weaponising the revelations. Trump sought to deflect the scrutiny by asking the Justice Department to investigate former President Bill Clinton’s ties to Epstein. Other emails released by the committee, however, included an assertion from Epstein that Clinton was "never on the island."
