This is a recycled trump tweet. Are you aware?

Nov 2025:

Trump told his followers in a Truth Social post on Wednesday: "The Biden Administration did not turn over a SINGLE file or page related to Democrat Epstein, nor did they ever even speak about him.” 

The post appears to imply that the Biden administration was somehow withholding key information related to the Epstein files.

But if you actually care,

From 2021 through 2025 when Biden was president the Epstein files were under strict federal court orders. Federal judges controlled the records to protect the privacy of trafficking victims including minors. Biden could not overrule those protections and no president can bypass federal judges to release sealed court evidence to the public.

Note that Congress can (and did) do so. Under Biden, for some reason, Congress wasn't interested in doing so despite being a republican majority then as well.

Finance Committee members were allowed to review thousands of Epstein files in camera.

(Finance Commmittee Chair Ron Wyden (D-OR): We asked the Treasury Department during the Biden administration to show us the materials, show us the suspicious activity reports. They did. We asked Republicans to join us in efforts to do some subpoenas afterwards to get more information, and Republican senators weren't willing to do that.

Here's more reasons if, again, anyone actually gives a shit rather than a rah-rah tankie piss-on-the-democrats wankfest.
