Musk vs. Trump: Epstein Files Spark Explosive Allegations
What started as a minor online spat has now erupted into a high-profile controversy between Elon Musk and Donald Trump, centered around the late Jeffrey Epstein and long-sealed court documents.
On June 5, Musk shocked many by posting on X (formerly Twitter):
“@realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files… Have a nice day, DJT!”
He followed up with: “Mark this post for the future. The truth will come out.”
The post instantly went viral, igniting fresh speculation over who may be named in the unreleased Epstein files, a trove of legal documents believed to expose powerful individuals tied to Epstein’s alleged sex trafficking network.
While Trump has not responded publicly, his former associate David Schoen—Epstein’s lawyer before his death—dismissed the claim:
“There was nothing implicating President Trump during my time as Epstein’s lawyer.”
Epstein, who died in 2019 under controversial circumstances, remains a central figure in ongoing conspiracy theories. Musk’s accusations now raise serious questions about transparency, as many recall Trump’s previous pledges to release all Epstein-related documents—promises that remain unfulfilled.
As the feud escalates, the public waits to see if Musk’s claims will trigger real disclosure—or just deepen the mystery.
