Musk Deletes Bombshell Posts Linking Trump to Epstein Files Amid Feud

In a whirlwind of digital drama, Elon Musk has stirred the pot and then quickly tried to clean it up. The tech titan recently deleted a series of inflammatory posts on X, where he alleged that President Donald Trump’s name appears in unreleased Jeffrey Epstein files, suggesting this was why the documents remain under wraps. The posts, which included a bold claim that the truth would eventually surface, sparked a firestorm before vanishing from Musk’s timeline.

The spat between Musk and Trump, once a cozy alliance marked by Musk’s hefty $277 million donation to Trump’s campaign and his role overseeing the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), has taken a sharp turn. Their falling-out escalated when Musk criticized Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill, arguing it balloons the deficit by $2.5 trillion. In response, Musk didn’t just stop at policy critique—he went nuclear, hinting at Trump’s involvement with Epstein and even endorsing a post calling for Trump’s impeachment and replacement by J.D. Vance. That post, too, has disappeared.

The White House fired back, with Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt calling Musk’s accusations an “unfortunate episode” driven by his disappointment over the bill’s content. A source close to the Epstein matter pointed out that Trump’s administration released some Epstein files, which included his name but revealed nothing new. The source also questioned Musk’s motives, noting his months-long “bromance” with Trump, where he once professed admiration “as much as a straight man can love a straight man.”

Meanwhile, Attorney General Pam Bondi has been pushing for the release of the full Epstein dossier, including records, audio, and video tied to the case. Despite her efforts, key documents, like a rumored client list, remain unreleased, fueling speculation and controversy. The files released so far include flight logs and a redacted “masseuse list,” believed to reference Epstein’s victims, though many named in the documents face no accusations of wrongdoing.

This saga underscores a deeper tension: the public’s hunger for transparency in the Epstein case clashes with the slow drip of information, leaving room for wild claims and quick deletions. As Musk and Trump’s feud plays out, the real story may lie in what’s still hidden—and why.
