Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) voiced his support on Wednesday for the “complete release” of government documents linked to the infamous pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

“Eventually, there needs to be a resolution,” Thune stated, addressing the concern from President Trump’s supporters regarding the administration’s management of the files related to the Epstein case.

“We all want to ensure that justice is achieved and there is complete transparency and openness about this issue,” the leading Republican senator mentioned during an interview with Fox News “Special Report” host Bret Baier.

The FBI and Justice Department announced the conclusion of a “systematic review” of the Epstein case last week in a controversial, unsigned memo, which indicated that no further disclosures in the case were coming. 

The review found “no credible evidence” that Epstein, who died in his Manhattan jail cell on Aug. 10, 2019, “blackmailed prominent individuals” or that investigations against “uncharged third parties” were warranted. 

The memo included a link to surveillance video from the Manhattan prison where Epstein died, suggesting that no one entered the convicted pedophile’s cell the night he committed suicide. 

Earlier Tuesday, Trump accused his “past supporters” of buying into the “Jeffrey Epstein Hoax,” arguing that it’s all a “scam” involving documents cooked up by previous Democratic presidential administrations. 

The president described those demanding more information about the case as “weaklings” and declared that he doesn’t “want their support anymore.”

“The president and Attorney General Pam Bondi will make the right decisions, but I’m always a believer in transparency,” Thune said Wednesday. “I think more is always better.”

The Senate majority leader argued that from “get go, maybe there were unrealistic expectations” about what the Trump administration would be able to release about the government’s investigation into Epstein.  

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) has similarly expressed support for “transparency” regarding the government’s Epstein probe.

“It’s a very delicate subject, but we should put everything out there and let the people decide,” the House speaker told conservative podcast host Benny Johnson on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, polls show that most Americans disapprove of the Trump administration’s handling of the Epstein files. 

Just 17% of voters approve of the administration’s approach in the Epstein matter, while 63% disapprove, according to a Quinnipiac University national survey released Wednesday. 

Among GOP voters, 40% approve of Trump’s handling of Epstein disclosures while 36% disapprove, the survey found.
