Billionaire Elon Musk deleted the tweet about the Epstein files citing U.S. President Donald Trump’s name in it. Trump and Musk got involved in a verbal duel after the latter alleged that the Epstein files were never made public because his name was also included.
Musk had stepped down from the post of special government employee from the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) while citing that he wants to focus more on his business.
It is reported that Musk was upset with Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill’.
Musk had posted on X, “Donald Trump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!” Now, he deleted the post.
Later, Musk hinted at a possible truce while responding to a post of American Fund Manager Bill Ackman. The fund manager said, “I support @realDonaldTrump and @elonmusk and they should make peace for the benefit of our great country. We are much stronger together than apart.” Musk said, “ You’s are not wrong.”

Trump, Musk disagreed on latest bill
Musk’s dramatic meltdown came at a pivotal moment for Trump’s self-described “big, beautiful bill,” which encompasses sweeping tax reductions and expanded military expenditures.
The two took to their respective social media platforms to spew sharp criticism and allegations against each other, waging a war of words between the two most prominent personalities in the world.
The feud reached its peak when Musk made explosive allegations about Trump’s connection to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, marking a dramatic escalation in their increasingly personal conflict. The feud between the two men got nastier, less than a week after Musk officially left his position spearheading the quasi-official Department of Government Efficiency.
Vance backed Trump
US Vice President JD Vance has extended support to US President Donald Trump amid the public breakdown.
In a post on X on Friday, Vance said, “President Trump has done more than any person in my lifetime to earn the trust of the movement he leads. I’m proud to stand beside him.”
