Elon Musk has joined the growing online backlash against President Donald Trump’s recent remarks about the “Epstein files.” Trump’s post on Saturday dismissing the left’s focus on the Epstein case drew a scathing response from Musk, who called for the release of the files as promised.
Musk, reacting to Trump’s contradictory statements about Epstein, tweeted: “Seriously, he said ‘Epstein’ half a dozen times while telling everyone to stop talking about Epstein. Just release the files.”
Seriously.

He said “Epstein” half a dozen times while telling everyone to stop talking about Epstein.
Just release the files as promised.
He also criticized the failure to bring Epstein’s abusers to justice, calling the situation a “very big deal” and questioning the integrity of the system.
Trump, who has repeatedly dismissed the issue, suggested the files were created by his political opponents, including former Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden, and accused them of holding back damaging information to discredit him. The debate continues as questions surrounding the Epstein case persist.
