Elon musk Accuses Donald Trump of Epstein Ties Amid Public Feud
Updated June 07, 2025
The already tense relationship between Elon Musk and Donald Trump took a turn this week after Musk suggested Trump’s name appears in the yet-to-be-released Jeffrey Epstein files. The accusation came amid a broader exchange of insults between the two figures.
Musk’s broadside included a now-deleted post on X, stating, “Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public.” He added, “Mark this post for the future. The truth will come out.”
Vice President J.D. Vance weighed in on the matter, defending Trump. Speaking on a podcast with Theo Von, Vance dismissed the allegations.”Donald Trump didn’t do anything wrong with Jeffrey Epstein,” Vance said. “Whatever the Democrats and the media say about him, that’s totally BS.”
Vance affirmed his loyalty to Trump, stating, “My loyalties are always gonna be with the president.”
the feud began after Musk criticized Trump’s tax policies, calling them a “disgusting abomination.” Trump responded on Truth Social, saying he didn’t mind Musk turning against him, but that he “should have done so months ago.”
Trump’s past association with Epstein has been well-documented. He once told New York Magazine that he had known Epstein for 15 years, calling him a “terrific guy” who “enjoys his social life.”
Musk himself has faced scrutiny for a photo with Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s accomplice, at a 2014 Oscars party. Musk has claimed Maxwell “photobombed” him.
Following Musk’s claims, Reps. Stephen Lynch, D-Mass., and Robert Garcia, D-Calif., requested clarification from Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel regarding the veracity of Musk’s allegations, Axios reported. The White House dismissed the lawmakers as “lunatics.”
Patel declined to comment directly on Musk’s claim when asked by Joe Rogan.
Vance acknowledged Musk’s entrepreneurial achievements and his efforts to combat government waste but suggested Musk was mistaken to attack Trump. ”I just think it’s a huge mistake for the world’s wealthiest man… to be at war with the world’s most powerful man,” Vance said.
What’s next
The public awaits further developments regarding the Epstein files and any potential implications for those named within them. The ongoing feud between Musk and Trump could also influence political dynamics.
