Countdown to detonation: A massive bomb is about to be detonated. - "It's time for the major explosion"
Hey there! Here's the scoop on a heated online exchange that has got everyone talking.
- The Tinderbox:Elon Musk (53), the renowned tycoon, sets Twitter ablaze with a bombastic statement, claiming that the name of none other than President Donald Trump (78) surfaces in some mystery files related to the infamous Jeffrey Epstein (1953-2019), the convicted sex offender. Musk boldly declares, "It's time to drop the real big bomb." He taunts the President, "@realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That's the real reason they weren’t made public. Have a nice day, DJT!"
Musk's evidence? Well, he didn't seem to have much, but did say, "Remember this post for the future. The truth will come out." These so-called "Epstein files" are documents [1][2][3] detailing Epstein's affiliations with various celebrities.
The Sparks Fly Before
Musk's fiery salvos came after President Trump threatened to cut government deals with Musk's company on True Social. Bizarrely enough, until recently, the two seemed to share a special bond. Musk had worked under the newly-formed "Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)" within the US government until the end of May.
Trump remained silent on Musk's Epstein accusation, according to various media outlets [4]. When asked by reporters about it, Karoline Leavitt (27), Trump's press secretary, just brushed it aside. Leavitt declared, "This is just Elon being antsy because 'One Big Beautiful Bill' doesn't contain the policy he desires. The President is focused on getting this historic legislation passed and making our country great again." Musk had previously publically criticized Trump's budget bill as a "disgusting abomination."
Trump was also "very disappointed" in Musk, signaling that his close relationship with the former White House top advisor was no more. Musk took to Twitter [5], among other things, stating that Trump wouldn't have bagged a second term if it wasn’t for spending a quarter of a billion dollars on his campaign. The spat between the two tech titans doesn't seem to be cooling off just yet...
