The White House admitted it has “no specific timeline” for releasing the remaining Jeffrey Epstein files.
It can be recalled that last month, President Donald Trump was asked point-blank about the long-awaited release of documents tied to Jeffrey Epstein during a swearing-in ceremony for Paul Atkins as the new chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
A reporter asked, “When can we expect the Epstein documents to be released?”
President Trump responded calmly but pointedly: “I don’t know. I’ll speak to the attorney general about that. I really don’t know.”
During an interview on Full Measure with Sharyl Attkisson, Comer accused Pam Bondi’s DOJ of stonewalling the release of Epstein files.
Speaking about the newly formed Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets — which is investigating major scandals including the Epstein files, the JFK assassination, and the 9/11 coverups — Comer exposed the alarming pattern of bureaucratic resistance he has encountered.
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.), chairwoman of the Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, has also intensified her demands for Attorney General Pam Bondi to release the long-awaited Jeffrey Epstein client list, citing the recent deaths of two victims and a growing erosion of public trust in the Department of Justice (DOJ).
On February 25, 2025, TGP detailed Luna’s public confrontation with the Attorney General, noting that Luna had sent letters to the DOJ on February 11 and 19, requesting updates on the declassification process.
Bondi has repeatedly claimed she is reviewing the Epstein files, stating on Fox News that the documents are “sitting on my desk right now” and that their release is a directive from President Trump.
However, her promises have yet to materialize into the full disclosure demanded by Luna and her allies.
The Gateway Pundit reported that Bondi’s initial release was met with backlash, particularly after conservative influencers received binders labeled “The Epstein Files: Phase 1,” which contained little new information.
Luna clarified that neither she nor her task force had been consulted on the release.
The documents, consisting primarily of Epstein’s address book, fell short of the comprehensive client list demanded by lawmakers and the public.
In March, during an interview with Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) on OANN, Luna announced that she is not confident about the Epstein client list release.
Gaetz asked her point-blank:
“Are you confident, as you sit here now, that there will be an Epstein client list that the American people will see?”
Luna’s response:
“I’m not confident on the Epstein client list because I haven’t had the briefing yet from the Department of Justice. I’ll know more tomorrow on that. But based on what I’m hearing from the attorney general, she keeps saying that she is going to release something, so I’m going to take her at her word for that. Now, whether that something is a full list, we have asked for the full list. We have asked for all the documentation. We are pushing for maximum transparency. But again, we do not hold declassification authority. That is up to the attorney general.”
During last week’s White House press briefing, O’Handley directly questioned Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt on when the remaining Epstein materials would be released or whether any arrests were imminent.
O’Handley:
My question is about the Epstein files. A couple of months ago, the DOJ released what they called Phase 1 of the Epstein files, and they announced that a lot of those files—the remaining files, probably the bulk of the files—were actually in the New York field office.They requested that they be returned the day after. Some legacy media reports show that not only were those files returned to the DOJ, but that hundreds of FBI agents are going through them day after day and getting them ready for public release.
Do you have any updates from the DOJ or the FBI on when those files are expected to be released, and also when we might start seeing some arrests of the client list?
Karoline Leavitt:
I can assure you that the Attorney General and her team at the Department of Justice are working on this diligently. For a specific timeline, I’d have to check in with them, and we can certainly do that for you, Rogan, in the effort of transparency.But I will tell you, the Attorney General is a bulldog. She is someone you want on your team, and when she wants to get something done, she gets it done. I’ve seen her do it in various instances already in her time as Attorney General, and when she makes a promise, she keeps it. So I don’t have a specific timeline for you on that, but I do know that they’re working on it over there. Thank you.
