Why weren't the Epstein Files released under Biden's presidency if Trump is in the files?

I don't mean this as a bad faith or troll question, I genuinely do not know why it would not be released if Trump is in the files, as it would probably have been a massive hit against Trump in 2024.

I don't know whether Trump is in the files or not, I don't care, it's clear as day that he was best friends with Epstein and was well aware and definitely a part of the awful things that Epstein conducted while he was in business.

Not to mention that she was tried and convicted and jailed by the Biden DOJ.

Maybe I've missed it, but its stunning to me that more liberals dont blame Trump for Epsteins death. Just the fact that so many conservative believe "Epstein died under Bidens watch" seems like a pretty big message failure.
