President Donald Trump on Tuesday said Attorney General Pam Bondi should decide whether to release materials related to the Jeffrey Epstein case, stating the decision should be based on credibility, as reported by The New York Post.

Speaking to reporters outside the White House before boarding Air Force One, the President addressed mounting pressure from conservatives demanding more transparency regarding the late financier and convicted sex offender.

Former president Donald Trump speaks to an audience during a town hall meeting at Dort Financial Center in Flint, Michigan on Tuesday, Sept. 17, 2024.

“Anything that’s credible, I would say, let them have it,” President Trump said when asked whether Bondi should make more Epstein-related files public.

“She’s handled it very well,” he added, referring to Bondi. “And it’s going to be up to her, whatever she thinks is credible, she should release.”

The comments come amid renewed interest in files connected to Epstein, who died in 2019 in a New York jail while awaiting trial.

Although officially ruled a suicide, questions surrounding his death and connections to prominent political and business figures have continued to circulate.

Despite the heightened attention from Republican lawmakers and grassroots supporters, President Trump appeared skeptical about the significance of any potential disclosures.

“I don’t understand why the Jeffrey Epstein case would be of interest to anybody,” he said. “It’s pretty boring stuff. It’s sordid, but it’s boring, and I don’t understand why it keeps going.”

Calls for the release of Epstein-related FBI files have intensified in recent weeks, particularly as House Republicans pushed a measure aimed at compelling full transparency.

The measure was blocked, with several Republicans voting against it, sparking backlash among the conservative base.

Attorney General Bondi, who previously served as a state prosecutor and has led multiple high-profile investigations since assuming the role at the Department of Justice, has not yet commented publicly on whether or when more Epstein records will be released.

Bondi’s office holds access to federal files that could shed light on Epstein’s activities, associates, and alleged victims. However, the criteria for public release would likely depend on national security, privacy concerns, and prosecutorial discretion.

The President’s remarks suggest deference to Bondi’s judgment while also signaling a reluctance to further elevate the case in the public sphere. No timeline has been provided for a final decision on the release of any documents.
