Shifting Stance on Release

- 📈 However, as the effort gained momentum, Trump changed his stance and backed the release.
- 📧 Trump's name has appeared in previously released emails from Epstein, though the White House has downplayed their significance.
Potential Obstacles to Release
- ⚠️ The Department of Justice (DOJ) might argue that the files cannot be released because they are part of an active investigation.
