The President declared on late Wednesday that he had endorsed the legislation overwhelmingly passed by US legislators that instructs the federal justice agency to disclose more files related to the deceased financier, the dead sex offender.

The move comes after weeks of resistance from the chief executive and his political allies in Congress that split his core constituency and caused divisions with some of his longtime supporters.

Trump had fought against releasing the related records, calling the issue a "hoax" and criticizing those who attempted to publish the files available, even though pledging their release on the campaign trail.

Nevertheless he altered his position in the last week after it become clear the legislative chamber would endorse the legislation. The president commented: "Everything is transparent".

The specifics remain uncertain what the justice department will make public in as a result of the measure – the bill outlines a variety of potential items that need to be disclosed, but includes exemptions for specific records.
