Musk Goes Nuclear on Trump's Epstein Crisis With All-Night Posting Meltdown

Musk Goes Nuclear on Trump’s Epstein Crisis With All-Night Posting Meltdown (The Daily Beast)

Elon Musk launched into an all-night X posting spree about Donald Trump’s handling of the so-called Epstein files, as the president makes desperate attempts to get his MAGA base to talk about anything else.

A flurry of posts on Wednesday afternoon, in which Musk asked why “Ghislaine [Maxwell] is in federal prison for a hoax,” proved to be a precursor to a marathon of posts piling pressure on Trump and his administration.

Elon Musk Blows Major Hole in Trump’s Epstein ‘Hoax’ Theory (The Daily Beast)

Elon Musk went on a posting spree Wednesday afternoon to slam President Donald Trump’s claim that the so-called “Epstein Files” are a lefty-created hoax.

The world’s richest man, still just months removed from being Trump’s “First Buddy” before their explosive breakup, pointed out that Jeffrey Epstein’s right-hand woman, Ghislaine Maxwell, remains in federal prison for sex trafficking on his behalf.

“Wow, amazing that Epstein ‘killed himself’ and Ghislaine is in federal prison for a hoax,” Musk wrote, blowing a hole in Trump’s claim.
