Congress has approved a bill ordering the US Justice Department to release files on Jeffrey Epstein. The House passed it 427-1, and the Senate cleared it without debate. The move follows President Donald Trump’s sudden call to make the records public after backlash from his supporters. The bill requires Attorney General Pam Bondi to release all unclassified documents within 30 days, though sensitive details can be withheld. Lawmakers from both parties pushed for transparency. Survivors of Epstein’s abuse said the release is vital for justice. Trump denies any wrongdoing and says he cut ties with Epstein years ago. (PC: BBC)
