Although President Donald Trump ordered the Justice Department to request the release of more details in the probe of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, he claimed Saturday that the move may do little to quell the outspoken criticism of his administration's handling of the case.

"I have asked the Justice Department to release all grand jury testimony with respect to Epstein," Trump said.

The Trump administration faces increased pressure from lawmakers to disclose more details on the Jeffrey Epstein case. President Trump ordered Attorney General Pam Bondi on Thursday to seek the release of grand jury testimony related to the case.
