President Donald Trump's daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, told Americans to expect more transparency "soon" from the White House regarding the so-called "Epstein files," adding she believes the president "wants to set things right."

"I do think that there needs to be more transparency on this. And I think that that will happen," said Lara to journalist Benny Johnson Monday. "…He hears all the noise and he hears of the consternation out there, and I think he's gonna want to set things right as well."

"To everybody out there who's all worked up about it, there's no great plot to keep this information away that I'm aware of. I do just believe that maybe it's been slow-rolled for reasons that hopefully we understand down the line. And I think we're probably gonna get more transparency on it very soon."

Well, I do think that there needs to be more transparency on this. And I think that that will happen. I mean, look, I don't know what truly exists there, but I know that this is something that's important to the president as well.

He does want transparency on all these fronts that everything we're talking about, because it's frustrated him as well. He sat for four years like the rest of us did and saw lie after lie, our country just being sent down the wrong path. And it was really frightening, very upsetting to a lot of people to see.

And I would actually say over the past 10 years, we've all kind of endured this. Prior to that, it was probably happening, Benny, but we just weren't as aware of it. It wasn't until Donald Trump came down that golden escalator that he just kind of blew the doors off of everything and people started to wake up and realize, "Wait a minute, things are not as they have always been presented to us."

And I do believe that you will see that [transparency]. Now, as it relates to the president, I know that this is probably not his number one thing he's focused on. He's focused on a lot of other important things. We've got this big announcement with Russia going on. I think as we're speaking right now at the White House, we have, you know, a Middle East—we're trying to get peace over there.

We're trying to make sure that Iran's nuclear arsenal is obviously completely decimated. We want to make sure everything is on the right track for this country. Fortunately, you see no border crossings in the last month. Zero, by the way. I think that's incredible. And no one's talking about that enough. Zero illegal border crossings in the month of June. Amazing how that's all gone. So I don't know that this was top of mind for him, but he hears all the noise and he hears of the consternation out there.
