Elon Musk has publicly claimed that President Donald Trump’s name appears in federal investigative files related to Jeffrey Epstein. Musk suggested that the full release of these files has been withheld to protect Trump from potential self-implication.
This statement has intensified an ongoing feud between Musk and Trump, which recently escalated after Musk criticized a massive government spending bill backed by Trump, particularly over its impact on electric vehicle subsidies. In turn, Trump accused Musk of relying on government funding and even threatened to revoke federal contracts with Tesla and SpaceX.
The dispute has drawn political attention, with some calling for the full release of the Epstein files. While Musk’s claims have stirred significant public interest, there has been no official confirmation or release of documents supporting these allegations. The situation remains fluid and under close watch.
