Trump fumes as DOJ finds 1M more Epstein documents: ‘When do they say no more’

WASHINGTON, DC: The Justice Department announced this week that federal prosecutors and the FBI had uncovered more than 1 million additional documents tied to Jeffrey Epstein, significantly expanding the scope of records still under review. The discovery, made by officials in New York, has prompted a sharp response from President Donald Trump, who questioned when the disclosures would come to an end.

The newly uncovered material comes as part of an ongoing review tied to a transparency mandate, which has required federal agencies to release previously sealed or unreleased records connected to Epstein and his longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell.

Donald Trump reacts to DOJ discovery

Reacting to the development, Trump accused the Department of Justice of wasting time and resources on what he described as a politically motivated effort.

“Now 1,000,000 more pages on Epstein are found. DOJ is being forced to spend all of its time on this Democrat inspired Hoax,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “When do they say NO MORE, and work on Election Fraud etc.”

He also claimed the focus on Epstein was being used to shield Democrats from scrutiny.

“The Dems are the ones who worked with Epstein, not the Republicans,” Trump added. “Release all of their names, embarrass them, and get back to helping our Country!”

In a follow-up post, Trump argued that renewed attention on Epstein was intended to distract from what he described as Republican accomplishments, calling the controversy “just another Witch Hunt.”

DOJ releases thousands of Epstein documents

The Justice Department previously released thousands of pages of records on Friday, December 19, as part of one of the most extensive disclosures tied to the Epstein investigation so far. The release included court filings, correspondence, and photographs, some of which had not been made public before.

 According to the DOJ, several images were described as graphic in nature, though officials did not specify when or where they were taken. Some materials were partially redacted to protect the identities of victims and individuals not charged with wrongdoing.

The newly released records also included photographs showing Epstein and Maxwell in social settings with well-known public figures, including former President Bill Clinton and pop star Michael Jackson. Officials did not provide additional context regarding the nature or timing of those interactions.

1 million more Epstein documents spark renewed backlash

On Wednesday, December 24, the Justice Department confirmed that officials in New York had discovered more than 1 million additional documents potentially tied to the Epstein case. The department said reviewing and preparing the material for release could take several more weeks.

The announcement reignited political backlash, particularly from Trump, who has repeatedly criticized the continued focus on Epstein. He has previously argued that the renewed scrutiny fuels conspiracy theories and distracts from other national issues.

Despite the criticism, the DOJ has maintained that it is legally obligated to review and release the material under congressional directives, emphasizing that the process remains ongoing.
