'It's a cover up': Musk floods X with posts attacking Trump over Epstein

ech billionaire Elon Musk, who earlier this month feuded online with President Donald Trump after stepping down as the head of the Department of Government Efficiency, has been flooding his social media feed with criticism of Trump and his administration's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files.

He's even used his AI chatbot Grok -- which just clinched a $200 million deal with the Trump administration -- to address the issue.

The administration angered many of Trump's supporters when it announced last week that it would not release any additional files on Epstein, the wealthy financier and convicted sex offender who died in jail by suicide in 2019, after earlier promising to do so
