Things have really heated up between Elon Musk and Donald Trump! Musk just dropped a major bombshell, claiming Trump’s name is hidden in those sealed Epstein files. This, of course, has everyone talking about the “Epstein files” again and demanding that everything be released.
Musk’s Bold Claim
On June 6, 2025, Musk went straight to X and posted:
“Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!”
This tweet definitely poured gasoline on the already burning fire between Musk and Trump. They’ve been bickering over policy and throwing personal insults for a while now.
The Epstein Files: What We Know
The “Epstein files” are basically a huge collection of documents – think flight logs, contact lists, and evidence collected from Epstein’s properties. Back in February 2025, the U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi, along with the FBI, released some of these files. We got to see pilot logs from Ghislaine Maxwell’s trial, Epstein’s so-called “black book,” and a list of masseuses (though some names were blacked out). But a lot of stuff is still sealed or heavily edited, which leaves a lot of questions unanswered about who was involved with Epstein.
Political Reactions
Musk’s accusation has stirred up a lot of reactions. Democratic politicians are using this as an opportunity to push for the full release of the Epstein files, saying we need transparency and accountability. The White House is brushing off Musk’s claims, saying he’s just upset about recent policy decisions, especially how electric vehicle subsidies were handled in the “One Big Beautiful Bill.”
A Little Background
Donald Trump’s connection to Jeffrey Epstein has been under scrutiny for years. Back in 2002, Trump called Epstein a “terrific guy” who liked younger, beautiful women. There’s also a video from 1992 that shows Trump and Epstein hanging out at Mar-a-Lago. But Trump has since tried to distance himself, saying they had a falling out and he wasn’t a fan of Epstein.
The Feud Continues
The Musk-Trump relationship has gone from supportive to downright hostile, with public arguments and accusations flying back and forth. Musk’s recent claim about the Epstein files is the biggest blow yet. Everyone’s waiting to see what else comes out, and the pressure is on to release all the Epstein documents so we can finally see the full picture.
