Musk Claims Trump Is 'Real Reason' Epstein Files Haven't Been Released: 'Time to Drop the Really Big Bomb'

Elon Musk dropped a "big bomb" on Thursday, claiming President Donald Trump is in the Epstein files.

"Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public," Musk wrote in a shocking X post.

"Have a nice day, DJT!" he added.

"Mark this post for the future. The truth will come out," Musk warned in a follow-up post.

The tech billionaire's scandalous claim sent the internet into a tailspin as the post quickly went viral, accumulating more than 23 million views in less than one hour.

The world's wealthiest person and the world's most powerful leader have been exchanging jabs on social media most of Thursday. Their feud reportedly started last month after Musk disparaged Trump's "Big, Beautiful Bill," claiming it was disappointing and undermined DOGE's work.

On Thursday, President Trump responded during an interview in the White House that he was disappointed in Musk. He also claimed the Tesla CEO saw the bill and approved of it.

"He had no problem with it. All of a sudden he had a problem, and he only developed the problem when he found out we're going to cut EV mandate," Trump claimed Thursday, igniting the heated back-and-forth.

Musk's claim came one day after FBI Deputy Director Dan Borgino claimed the administration has video evidence that Epstein died by suicide. He also revealed additional information will be released in the coming weeks.

Trump's relationship with Epstein has been called into question by representatives on both sides of the aisle as well as MAGA supporters. Last month, New York Democratic Rep. Dan Goldman questioned whether the president used his position to block the release of the Epstein files.
