Similar to initial release where they release nothing (substantially) new and it looks like a coverup with an excuse of being under investigation or similar

None of the above, just wanted to get it over with (inevitable) no ulterior motive other than approval / appearance of power / part of his plan
Trump was vehemently against releasing Epstein files but switched as it was clear it would pass (passed 427-1), why did he do this, what was his plan?
the 5 options I put are largely mutually exclusive
1: resolution criteria for this will lean on Ro Khanna who said the victims lawyers and Biden official have seen the files, so will know if they’re not releasing the full files for political reasons
2: straight forward, if it doesn’t get to his desk
3: if he vetoes it
4: based on general consensus, it’ll be clear if this is the case
5: this is what the majority of Americans (specifically consider Khanna, Massie, and MTG in congress) likely want to happen/be the case, but will it actually happen?
