Elon Musk Says Trump Hasn't Released Epstein Files Because He's Named in Them
· VLADTV
The feud between President Donald Trump and billionaire Elon Musk has erupted into full public view, with Musk now accusing the sitting president of having ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Musk made the explosive claim on X — the social media platform he owns — writing, “Time to drop the really big bomb. [Trump] is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public.”
He followed it up by urging followers to “Mark this post for the future. The truth will come out.”
The post comes amid a series of escalating jabs between the two high-profile figures. Musk has publicly criticized Trump’s proposed “big, beautiful” spending bill, calling it fiscally reckless. He also claimed Trump wouldn’t have won re-election without his influence and accused the president of being ungrateful.
In response, Trump reportedly threatened to cancel federal contracts with Musk’s companies and referred to him as “crazy” during a recent closed-door meeting, according to sources close to the administration.
Once allies with overlapping agendas, the breakdown in their relationship is now playing out in real time, with Musk's latest Epstein allegation marking the most serious claim yet in their very public war of words.
