Lara Trump said the White House intends to publish additional material from the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, pledging “more transparency” during an interview released on 14 July. The president’s daughter-in-law, who spoke with conservative commentator Benny Johnson, added that Donald Trump “hears the noise” from supporters and “will want to set things right.” Her comments come one week after the Justice Department issued a memo stating Epstein died by suicide in 2019 and that officials found no “client list” of powerful associates—an assessment that angered parts of the president’s base and prompted calls for Attorney General Pam Bondi to resign. Over the weekend, the president had urged followers to “not waste time” on the controversy, saying the files were a distraction. Lara Trump acknowledged the apparent contradiction, suggesting any release would protect minors and witnesses. She did not specify what documents might be made public or give a timeframe, but said the administration was mindful of supporters’ demands. The statement signals a possible shift in the White House’s stance as pressure mounts for fuller disclosure of federal records tied to Epstein’s trafficking network.
