Trump Urges Release of Epstein Files Naming Democrats, Claims They Will ’Embarrass’ Party

Former U.S. President Donald Trump has called on the Department of Justice to release any documents from the ongoing Jeffrey Epstein investigation that may name or implicate figures within the Democratic Party.

Speaking publicly in interviews and on social media, Trump claimed that such files would expose wrongdoing and “embarrass” Democrats, asserting that the focus of investigations has been politically biased.

Trump’s remarks come as the Justice Department continues to process and release batches of Epstein-related records, following federal mandates aimed at increasing transparency while protecting the privacy of victims.

The former president suggested that Democrats, rather than Republicans, were the primary figures connected to Epstein, although no verified evidence has been presented publicly to support these claims.

The call has intensified political tensions in Washington, with supporters embracing the push for disclosure and critics warning against politicizing sensitive investigations. Some Republicans have aligned with Trump’s position, while others emphasize the importance of adhering to legal processes and ensuring that information is released responsibly.

The Epstein files, part of a broader congressional effort for transparency, have already prompted scrutiny of multiple high-profile individuals. Trump’s latest demand underscores the continuing intersection of political narratives and high-profile criminal investigations, highlighting the contentious atmosphere surrounding the partial public release of documents and the broader debate over accountability, privacy, and the timing of disclosures.

The situation remains fluid, with the Justice Department expected to continue reviewing and redacting files before they are made public, leaving questions about the potential political impact of any disclosures still unresolved.
