Trump ORDERS Release Of Full Epstein Documents | Pushes To Declassify Epstein’s DARKEST Secrets

Donald Trump has ordered Attorney General Pam Bondi to release all relevant grand jury documents related to the Jeffrey Epstein case — days after outrage erupted over a Wall Street Journal report alleging Trump sent Epstein a nude-themed birthday greeting. Trump blasted the story as “fake” and promised to sue WSJ, accusing them of printing “malicious lies.” The renewed push for transparency comes after mounting pressure from Trump loyalists demanding the infamous Epstein “client list” be made public. Bondi confirmed she’s prepared to move the court to unseal grand jury files. However, legal experts caution that court approval is still needed for any release. It remains unclear which cases the documents pertain to — Epstein’s 2006 charges or the 2019 federal s#x trafficking indictment. The move reignites the political firestorm surrounding Epstein’s powerful connections and the lack of transparency in the government’s handling of his case. #Trump #EpsteinFiles #JeffreyEpstein #EpsteinClientList #PamBondi #DOJ #TrumpVsWSJ #GhislaineMaxwell #FakeNews #GrandJury #FlightLogs #EpsteinCoverup #WSJScandal #TruthSocial #EpsteinDeath #TrumpOrdersRelease #UnsealTheDocs #EpsteinInvestigation #TrumpLawsuit #Murdoch Also Read Slip Of Tongue!

'Come To Kyiv': Zelensky TORCHES Putin’s Moscow Invite, Won’t Visit Russia Amid Attacks On Ukraine

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has bluntly rejected Vladimir Putin’s invitation to Moscow for peace talks, calling Russia’s capital a “terrorist” city. Speaking to ABC News, Zelensky said he could not travel while Ukraine remained under relentless missile and drone attacks. Putin claimed security would be guaranteed, but Zelensky insisted discussions must happen in Kyiv. While Trump has attempted to broker talks between both leaders, and Putin signaled openness to direct dialogue, the Kremlin maintains the timing is “not ready.” Hopes for peace remain distant amid ongoing war. #ZelenskyVsPutin #UkraineRussiaWar #KyivNotMoscow #ZelenskyRejectsPutin #UkraineConflict #RussiaUkraineTensions #PeaceTalksStalemate #ZelenskyMessage #PutinInvite #UkraineWarUpdate #RussiaUkraineNews #BreakingNews #UkraineFrontlines #ZelenskySpeech #PutinVsZelensky #TrumpPeacePlan #UkraineMissileAttacks #DroneWarUkraine #UkraineCrisis #UkrainePeaceTalks #MoscowInvitation #UkraineWarBreaking #RussiaUkrainePeace #KyivUnderFire #ZelenskyRefuses #PutinSecurityGuarantee #UkraineWar2025 #UkraineResistance #NoTalksInMoscow #KyivStrong Also Read Modi–Putin Bond On Display With Shared Car Ride After SCO Summit :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/modi-putin-bond-on-display-with-shared-car-ride-after-sco-summit-7847359.html?ref=DMDesc Russia, China Oppose 'Discriminatory Sanctions' Against BRICS Countries: Putin :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-china-oppose-discriminatory-sanctions-against-brics-countries-putin-7846217.html?ref=DMDesc Melania Trump Urges Vladimir Putin to Consider Children in Ukraine Conflict :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/melania-trump-letter-to-putin-children-peace-ukraine-011-7832049.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.103~
