Musk Accuses Trump of Being in the Epstein Files in Break-Up Tweet Storm

The Big Beautiful Break-Up

Published: June 6, 2025, 12:41 am

    Elon Musk has accused President Donald Trump of being in the so-called “Epstein files,” regarding Jeffrey Epstein, the registered sex offender and accused sex trafficker.

    Musk made the bombshell allegation after a relentless day of posting attacks against Trump, with whom he had been a close ally mere weeks ago.

    “Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files,” Musk posted to X. “That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!”

    Musk added in a follow-up post, “Mark this post for the future. The truth will come out.”

    Trump did not immediately address the allegation. He has been photographed with Epstein and traveled on his jet, but has distanced himself from having any involvement in the disgraced financier’s long list of alleged wrongdoing.

    Trump has a checkered history of comments about Epstein. In his decade as a politician, Trump has strongly condemned Epstein’s alleged crimes and claimed he was never a “fan” of the socialite, who frequented Palm Beach and New York, like Trump.

    In an interview with New York Magazine in 2002, however, Trump was much more complimentary. He said Epstein was a “terrific guy” who “likes to have fun.”

    Trump added, “It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do. And many of them are on the younger side.”

    Explosive tapes recorded by the reporter and author Michael Wolff, which were first published by the Daily Beast last year, alleged that Epstein once said he was Trump’s “closest friend for 10 years.”

    Epstein also alleged in the tapes that Trump first slept with his future wife, Melania Trump, on his now-infamous jet, dubbed the “Lolita Express.”

    Right-wing circles have called for additional information about the 2019 jail cell suicide of Epstein for years. Trump indulged these calls on the campaign trail, promising to release all details about the case to the public if he returned to office.

    Such a release is yet to come, however, more than four months into his second term. Instead, FBI Director Kash Patel, who Trump appointed this year, reaffirmed in May that all evidence points to Epstein dying by suicide.

    Right-wing influencers exit the White House after meeting with President Donald Trump. They are holding a binder dubbed “The Epstein Files: Phase One.” The binder contained no new information about Jeffrey Epstein, and the stunt was criticized by Democrats and MAGA alike

    The Trump administration was also criticized relentlessly in March after it invited right-wing influencers to the Oval Office to receive binders dubbed “The Epstein Files: Phase One.” The group left the meeting with big smiles and showed off their binder, but when they opened it, they found it contained no new information.

    Musk had a falling out with the president in recent weeks that recently erupted into an all-out civil war. He raged earlier on Thursday about Trump’s “ingratitude” for the $288 million he spent to propel him back into the Oval Office.

    Those posts came shortly after Trump claimed that Musk grew upset with him for not nixing electric vehicle credits in his proposed “Big Beautiful Bill.”

    “Elon is upset because we took the EV mandate,” Trump said. “I know that disturbed him.”

    This sent Musk’s attacks to another level. He claimed Trump would not have won in November if it were not for his public support and check-writing.

    “Without me, Trump would have lost the election,” Musk wrote. “Dems would control the House, and the Republicans would be 51-49 in the Senate.”

    Trump responded even more harshly on Truth Social.

    “The easiest way to save money in our Budget, Billions and Billions of Dollars, is to terminate Elon’s Governmental Subsidies and Contracts,” Trump wrote in one post. “I was always surprised that Biden didn’t do it!”

    In a second, he said, “Elon was ‘wearing thin,’ I asked him to leave, I took away his EV Mandate that forced everyone to buy Electric Cars that nobody else wanted (that he knew for months I was going to do!), and he just went CRAZY!”

    Musk’s allegation about Trump’s ties to Epstein followed shortly after.
