Musk slams Trump's defense of Bondi on Epstein controversy: 'Just release the files as promised'

https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5398685-elon-musk-criticizes-trump-over-epstein-case/

Tech billionaire Elon Musk blasted President Trump on Saturday over his defense of Attorney General Pam Bondi and her handling of the case related to the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.

Musk, in a late Saturday post on the social platform X, which he owns, responded to another X user who had attached a screenshot of Trump’s Truth Social statement earlier that day and wrote, “This is in the running for worst post ever made.”

“Seriously,” Musk said, agreeing with that sentiment about Trump’s post. “He said ‘Epstein’ half a dozen times while telling everyone to stop talking about Epstein.”

“Just release the files as promised,” Musk added.
