Elon Musk Demands Epstein Files Release Amid Explosive Claims Linking Trump to Secret Scandal

Elon Musk and Donald Trump—now there’s a saga that’s got more twists and turns than a telenovela on overdrive.

Is this a CEO’s crusade for truth, or just another episode in their ongoing digital soap opera? And while Musk’s fiery accusations briefly vanished, his insistence hasn’t—because hey, who doesn’t love a good cliffhanger?

Elon Musk has urged for the release of the Epstein files, weeks after he accused Donald Trump of being involved in them.

Who could forget the messy breakup that seemed to play out over X just weeks ago?

Musk seemed to go off on an absolutely fiery rant as he hit out at the US President and dropped the rather bombshell claim that Trump ‘is in the Epstein files’.

“That is the real reason they have not been made public,” he wrote in early June.

But within days, that ‘really big bomb’ of a claim appeared to be removed from the boss’ account and he moved on to sharing the results of a drug test to counteract ‘big time addict’ accusations.

He doesn’t seem to have to totally let it go though as fresh comments suggest he still wants the files released.

The said files are part of the investigative documents related to Jeffrey Epstein’s sex-trafficking case, kept classified.

Claiming the reason they hadn’t been made public was due to Trump being involved, Musk had followed up: “Mark this post for the future. The truth will come out.”

While Trump had a long-running friendship with Epstein before the pair fell-out in the early 00s, he has denied any knowledge of Epstein’s abuse.

And the president also reposted comments made by the accused’s lawyer, David Schoen, on X: “I was hired to lead Jeffrey Epstein’s defence as his criminal lawyer 9 days before he died.

“He sought my advice for months before that. I can say authoritatively, unequivocally, and definitively that he had no information to hurt President Trump. I specifically asked him!”

Also reacting to Musk’s claim on a podcast, Vice President JD Vance said it’s ‘totally BS’ and Trump ‘didn’t do anything wrong with Epstein’.

As the President threatened to investigate the Tesla boss with his own Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), Musk circled back to Epstein.

MAGA activist Scott Presler wrote on X yesterday (2 July): “Release the unredacted Epstein files.”

And while he didn’t include any names, Musk responded with a simple: “Yes.”

With Presler then writing back: “Agree.”

Well, what a riveting conversation.

Earlier this week, Trump had also warned his former ‘first buddy’ may have to ‘go back to South Africa’.

“Elon may get more subsidy than any human being in history, by far, and without subsidies, Elon would probably have to close up shop and head back home to South Africa,” he said.
