US President Donald Trump has urged House Republicans to vote in favor of releasing files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, marking a reversal of his previous stance. The move comes after Democrats on the House Oversight Committee published email exchanges between Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, some of which referenced Trump. The bill, known as the Epstein Files Transparency Act, aims to force the justice department to release all unclassified records linked to Epstein. Trump's change of heart may be an attempt to preempt further speculation and distraction from other topics. The issue has sparked a public feud between Trump and Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, a traditional Trump supporter.

President Donald Trump has reversed his stance on releasing the Jeffrey Epstein files, backing a congressional effort to make them public after realizing he couldn't stop their momentum. Trump reluctantly supported the measure, which is expected to pass overwhelmingly in the House and then move to the Senate. The decision comes after Trump's allies and advisers convinced him that fighting the release would lead to an embarrassing defeat. Trump remains frustrated with the focus on Epstein, whom he claims to have cut ties with before Epstein's criminal charges. The White House is now trying to move past the issue and refocus on Trump's policy efforts, while also investigating Epstein's ties to other prominent figures, including former President Bill Clinton and economic adviser Larry Summers.
