A DEMOCRAT senator has claimed a “big” Epstein file “full of actionable information” is locked in a drawer in the Treasury Department.

Senator Ron Wyden has urged officials to conduct a more in-depth investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s financial transactions. He specifically called for the examination of 4,725 wire transfers, accumulating to approximately $1.1 billion, connected to an account maintained by Epstein.

On the Senate floor, Wyden, aged 76, emphasized: “Somewhere in the Treasury Department, Mr. President, locked within a file cabinet, lies a comprehensive Epstein dossier filled with actionable insights.”

He urged: “Follow the money [and] details about his financing and operations that await investigation.”

The Dem senator even claimed the Biden administration let his aides take a look at the Treasury’s file last year.

Wyden revealed: “The dossier indicates that Mr. Epstein used various Russian banks, which are currently facing sanctions, to facilitate transactions linked to sex trafficking.

“A lot of the women and girls he targeted came from Russia, Belarus, Turkey and elsewhere.”

He added: “One shudders to think about the kinds of people who must have been involved in trafficking these women and young girls out of those countries and into the Epstein web of abuse.

“These are all potential leads.”

Beyond the mysterious account – kept with JP Morgan Chase – Wyden said how “hundreds of millions more flowed through other accounts,” meaning authorities have “even more to investigate”.

Wyden’s office discovered four major banks flagged over $1.5 billion in transactions after Epstein was arrested in July 2019, the New York Times reports.

Epstein was found hanged in his cell on the 10th, but speculation has been rife that others were involved – and the release of the footage has sparked another flareup of controversy.

It was released last week after a leaked memo showed that a probe concluded Epstein’s death a suicide, and the “client list” of people implicated in Epstein’s crimes allegedly does not exist – contrary to popular conspiracy theories.

Wyden added on Thursday: “I wrote to the Attorney General, Ms. [Pam] Bondi, Treasury [Secretary Scott] Bessent, FBI Director [Kash] Patel, and I asked them all to produce the Epstein file to the Senate Finance Committee so it could be reviewed.”

He explained he had “made that request multiple times”.

The Dem Senator later said: “We are going to stay on this fight to hold the wealthy individuals accountable for the harm that they clearly were involved in, in injuring the young women and others in this sex trafficking.

“[There was] real evil – real evil done to women and girls by Jeffrey Epstein.

“Nobody gets to sweep that under the rug.”

Since his death, people have speculated that Epstein blackmailed prominent figures involved with his sick crimes.

The FBI’s conclusion that it does not exist directly rails against what administration officials have previously said.

In an interview on Fox News in February, Pam Bondi herself said the client list was “sitting on my desk right now to review.”

She addressed the comment during a cabinet meeting last Tuesday, explaining that she had meant the Epstein file in its entirety.

And it was hoped that the confirmation Epstein’s death was suicide would put to bed theories that he had been murdered to prevent him from divulging names.

However, even the release of the CCTV footage has failed to snuff out the conspiracies – leading to some within Trump’s own ranks to call for the further release of the full files.

Many within his MAGA movement allege that the files about the paedophile’s crimes have been withheld to protect big names.

US House Speaker Mike Johnson said this week he supported the release of the files.

Speaking on a podcast with Benny Johnson, the Republican said: “It’s a very delicate subject, but we should put everything out there and let the people decide it.

“I’m for transparency,” he added.

Other conservative figures have since demanded to see all the documents related to Epstein’s crimes, even as Trump has tried to put the issue to bed.

Lauren Boebert, another conservative Republican said a special counsel should be appointed to investigate the financier’s crimes if more Epstein files were not released.

And Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana said the voters expect more accountability.

Even Trump’s daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, a Fox News host, has called for “more transparency” from the administration.

On Tuesday, Trump said the DoJ should release all “credible” information from its probe into the notorious sex criminal.

But he repeated his claim that the so-called Epstein files were “made up” by his Democratic predecessors in the White House – despite saying multiple times during the election campaign that he would “probably” release them.

He told reporters in the White House: “I don’t understand why the Jeffrey Epstein case would be of interest to anybody.

“It’s pretty boring stuff.”

Trump’s frustration boiled over on Wednesday when he unleashed a scathing rant on Truth Social, taking aim at those he holds responsible for the ongoing attention, and those who have “fallen” for them.

The President hit out at “radical left democrats”, who he claims peddled the theories about Epstein’s death and the so-called client list.

And he fumed that his past MAGA supporters had “bought into this ‘bullshit,’ hook, line, and sinker”.

The MAGA camp remains left divided over a lack of clarity regarding the release of the hyped files.
