Overwhelming votes in both chambers of Congress directing the Justice Department to release the full files from the Jeffrey Epstein investigation sent a clear message: Make it all public.
Yet there's reason to doubt all the information collected by the federal government during its investigation into the disgraced financier and convicted sex offender will see the light of day despite the House and Senate both voting for its release.
Here's why the complete Epstein documents still might not come out even when President Donald Trump signs the Epstein Files Transparency Act, as he said he would.
Two days before Trump changed his tune by calling for House Republicans to vote to release the Epstein files, the president ordered the Justice Department to investigate Democrats linked to Epstein, who died by suicide in a federal prison in 2019.
Trump singled out former President Bill Clinton, former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, and venture capitalist Reid Hoffman, as well as JPMorgan Chase, as subjects of investigations.
Under the Epstein files bill, the Justice Document would be able to withhold documents that "would jeopardize an active federal investigation or ongoing prosecution, provided that such withholding is narrowly tailored and temporary."
