After Elon Musk revived the contentious conspiracy theory on US President by connecting Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, White House called it 'an unfortunate episode'. Reacting to the fallout, White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said that the Tesla chief executive's dissatisfaction stems from the One Big Beautiful Bill's exclusion of his preferred policies.Leavitt stated: "As a businessman, [Musk] has a right to speak for his companies, but as POUTS, President Trump has a responsibility to fight for this country." She emphasised the One Big Beautiful Bill as "the most historic piece of legislation" in recent times.The technology entrepreneur, who recently departed from his advisory position at the White House, claimed on Thursday that classified government documents about Epstein's influential associates contain references to the Republican leader.The administration has confirmed its review of extensive documentation, including videos and investigative materials, which Trump's 'MAGA' supporters believe will expose public figures involved in Epstein's criminal activities.Musk posted on X: "Time to drop the really big bomb: (Trump) is in the Epstein files," amid an escalating public disagreement with the president. He added: "That is the real reason they have not been made public."Trump's more conspiracy-minded supporters suggest that government officials and others concealed the involvement of Epstein's associates in his crimes.These supporters typically direct accusations towards Democrats and Hollywood personalities, rather than Trump. No official source has verified the president's presence in any documentation.Musk provided no supporting evidence for his assertion and did not specify which files he referenced. The allegation has prompted Democrats to demand the release of these materials, attempting to redirect a MAGA conspiracy theory against its originators.Epstein died by suicide in 2019 in a New York prison whilst facing sex trafficking charges. Trump has rejected claims of visiting Little Saint James, Epstein's private island in the US Virgin Islands, where prosecutors allege he trafficked underage girls.Before his election, the president expressed willingness to release Epstein-related files. Whilst the administration has released over 63,000 pages regarding the JFK assassination, Trump's commitment to releasing the Epstein files remains unfulfilled.
