 "'Nothing will be good for troublemakers,' says Trump as he demands release of Epstein court documents")
US President Donald Trump Saturday (July 19) took to his Truth Social platform to address mounting pressure to release grand jury transcripts from the criminal cases of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, stating that even if the courts approve their release, “nothing will be good enough for the troublemakers and radical left lunatics.”
“It will always be more, more, more. MAGA!” Trump posted.
The statement followed a Friday move by the Department of Justice, which asked federal judges to unseal the grand jury testimonies in response to a request Trump made on Thursday.
Trump had announced that he directed Attorney General Pam Bondi to “produce any and all pertinent Grand Jury testimony, subject to Court approval.”
The push to release Epstein-related files has intensified, with even some of Trump’s staunchest supporters joining critics in demanding transparency.
Epstein, who died by suicide in 2019 after his arrest on federal child sex trafficking charges, remains a focal point of public scrutiny.
Trump’s Saturday post suggests he’s feeling the heat but is reluctant to take further action.
“I have asked the Justice Department to release all Grand Jury testimony with respect to Jeffrey Epstein, subject only to Court Approval,” he wrote.
“With that being said, and even if the Court gave its full and unwavering approval, nothing will be good enough for the troublemakers and radical left lunatics making the request.”

Trump denies the letter’s authenticity and is seeking at least $10 billion in damages.
