Elon Musk on Saturday (local time) asked Donald Trump to release the Jeffrey Epstein files "as promised", reacting to the US president's long Truth Social post regarding the unrest in the latter's administration over its handling of the case.

Replying to an X user's post on Trump's rant, Musk wrote, "He said 'Epstein' half a dozen times while telling everyone to stop talking about Epstein. Just release the files as promised."
Musk's remark comes days after the Department of Justice (DOJ) and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) closed their investigation into the death of the convicted sex offender, concluding that he was not murdered. The two agencies also denied the existence of the disgraced financier's "client list" - the so-called "Epstein Files" - which allegedly names Trump, among others.
Trump and Musk have been feuding publicly following their split, which was caused by the latter's opposition to the MAGA leader's ambitious "big, beautiful bill."

The Republican has consistently denied allegations that he was named in the files or had any direct connection to Epstein, despite being seen in at least one decades-old video alongside the late financier at a party. On the other hand, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO is among those who allege that the real estate baron is named in the files.
According to the US media, Dan Bongino, an influential right-wing podcast host whom Trump appointed FBI deputy director, has threatened to resign over the Epstein case fiasco.
