Trump's Epstein Files: New Developments & Release

President Trump and Vice President Vance promised to release Justice Department files related to Jeffrey Epstein. Since Trumps return to office, the saga surrounding these files has seen several key developments. Attorney General Bondi reviewed the Epstein case files, clarifying she meant the case files, not an alleged client list. The Justice Department invited conservative bloggers to view binders labeled The Epstein Files: Phase One, though much of this evidence was already public. Later, the Department of Justice and FBI released a joint statement, finding no evidence of a client list or other information that would lead to new criminal investigations. President Trump defended Attorney General Bondi amid criticism from his supporters. Republican and Democratic representatives sought a House vote to release the files, but their petition did not reach the necessary signatures. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche interviewed Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell, who claimed there was no client list. Maxwell was later transferred to a minimum-security prison. Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released a birthday book for Epstein, which included a page allegedly written and signed by Trump, a claim the president denied. Finally, House Democrats released emails from the Epstein estate, leading to a bill to release the Jeffrey Epstein files being brought to a vote. DNN | The Daily News Now!
