Simple, almost everything about Trump is about money. Someone who has a lot to lose from the release of the Epstein files has paid Trump to oppose the release.
More money than being the commander commission-in-chief of the USA?

I suppose after he became the president he saw there is no real risk of being impeached

Epstein files bill will head to Trump's desk after approval by House and Senate
By Caitlin Yilek

What to know about the Epstein files bill:
  • The Senate approved a House-passed bill that would require the Justice Department to release files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, effectively sending it to President Trump's desk as soon as it's formally transmitted from the House to the Senate on Wednesday.
  • Mr. Trump said earlier this week he intends to sign the bill.
  • The bill, known as the Epstein Files Transparency Act, would compel the Justice Department to publicly release files related to Epstein and his co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell within 30 days of it being signed into law, with some exceptions for survivors' personal information and other sensitive material.
  • Mr. Trump dropped his opposition to the bill earlier this week, opening the door for House Republicans to vote for its passage after months of stalling. It passed the House 427-1, and moved through the Senate unanimously. Despite their ultimate support, many GOP lawmakers denounced the vote as a stunt, arguing Democrats were seeking the documents to attack the president.
  • The vote was the product of a lengthy effort to force the issue in the House, with four Republicans joining all Democrats last week to sign a petition to bring the matter to the floor. House Speaker Mike Johnson opposed the effort but ultimately supported final passage.

Knowing who nick sortor is, I'm certain that he instigated this drama and is crying wolf now. I hope both these demographics go at each others throats.

Today, I designated the Muslim Brotherhood and Council on American-Islamic Relations as foreign terrorist and transnational criminal organizations.

This bans them from buying or acquiring land in Texas and authorizes the Attorney General to sue to shut them down.

The real cause of US aggression against Venezuela is a 20 year $1 billion joint development programme with China to restore Venezuelan oil exports to 60,000 barrels per day.

Chevron would not profit as before.

Meanwhile US oil production has plateaued. Active rigs are just one-third of the rig count a decade ago.

Oil, gold reserves, lithium, rare earths. So much wealth to steal and so close to US refineries.

If the Americans control the Venezuela oil reserves, they would be able to manipulate the oil price, that could affect india.

Trump forced to sign
Trump Signs Explosive Bill Unlocking Hidden Epstein Documents | APT
United States President Donald Trump has signed a bill compelling the Justice Department to release all files, communications, and remaining records tied to Jeffrey Epstein within 30 days. The move, which Trump had resisted for months, sets off a high-stakes countdown that could expose thousands of unreleased pages linked to the late financier’s criminal network, his political associations, and the federal investigation into his 2019 death in custody. The legislation bars officials from withholding documents over political sensitivity, positioning the upcoming disclosure as one of the most anticipated and volatile releases in recent U.S. political history.
