NEW YORK – The world is now witnessing an open battle between tech billionaire Elon Musk and U.S. President Donald Trump, as a fracture in their relationship has led Musk to make serious public allegations against the President.
In a series of explosive posts on his social media platform X, the former Dodge chief called for President Trump to be impeached and replaced by Vice President JD Vance.
Musk alleged that the continued secrecy surrounding the Epstein files is due to the presence of high-profile names like Trump's. "The truth will come out one day," Musk wrote in his post, intensifying the public feud.
The Jeffrey Epstein Connection
Musk's allegation centers on the infamous "Epstein files," a collection of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein, a multimillionaire charged with sex trafficking of minors for the benefit of himself and other powerful individuals.
Epstein, who began his career as a math teacher, rose to prominence in the 1970s as an investment banker. He founded his own firm, J. Epstein & Co., in 1982, catering exclusively to clients with fortunes over one billion dollars, which allowed him to build a network of elite contacts.
While he was known as a billionaire, the source of his vast wealth remained murky. According to his will, signed just two days before his death, his assets were valued at over $577 million.
A History of Crime and a Mysterious Death
Epstein's criminal history became public in 2008 when he pleaded guilty to soliciting a minor for prostitution. He was sentenced to 18 months but served only 13 and was officially registered as a sex offender.
The case was thrust back into the spotlight following an investigative series by Miami Herald reporter Julie K. Brown. In July 2019, Epstein was arrested again on federal charges for sex trafficking of minors.
Weeks after his arrest, on August 10, 2019, Epstein was found dead in his jail cell. The death was ruled a suicide, but the circumstances have fueled widespread speculation and conspiracy theories. His death meant that many details of his trafficking network and the identities of his powerful clients and associates were never revealed in a trial.
The "Epstein files" refer to all the information gathered during the investigation, including contact lists, call records, videos, and the names of his associates and clients. In February 2025, a U.S. Department of Justice document revealed that countless celebrities, including Donald Trump, pop icon Michael Jackson, actor Alec Baldwin, and film producer Harvey Weinstein, were on Epstein's contact list.
However, the specific details of their involvement, if any, have not been made public. It is this secrecy that Elon Musk is now weaponizing in his public campaign against President Trump, turning their political and personal rivalry into a high-stakes confrontation with potentially severe consequences.
