Trump's name appears in Epstein documents, according to Elon Musk's recent post
Elon Musk Stirs Controversy with Bold Claim 🌩️
In a bold move, tech mogul Elon Musk recently sent shockwaves through the digital sphere by suggesting that the US administration's reluctance to release the Epstein Files is due to President Donald Trump's alleged mentions within them.
Musk voiced his opinion in a post on his platform X, stating "@realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That's the real reason they haven't been made public." This provocative tweet has since gathered over 10 million views. In a familiar tone, Musk signed off his post with the playful term "DJT."
The Epstein Files refer to the Justice Department records concerning the notorious convicted sex offender, Jeffrey Epstein, who reportedly procured underage girls for sex for an entourage of high-profile individuals.
Interestingly, Musk didn’t provide any concrete evidence to back up his claim or disclose his source of information regarding the files. The billionaire, who previously served as a close advisor to Trump, recently departed from the newly-created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and has since criticized the Tax-Cut and Spending bill, referring to it as a "disgusting abomination."
Trump, in response, allegedly asked Musk to leave the administration, citing his behavior as grinding his nerves and labeling him as going "crazy."
