Elon Musk is back in the headlines — and this time, he’s aiming straight at Steve Bannon and Donald Trump over the Epstein files.
On Tuesday, Musk alleged on X that Bannon is listed in the Epstein documents, marking yet another bombshell from the billionaire who just last month claimed Trump himself was implicated.
“Bannon is in the Epstein files,” Musk posted bluntly.
Musk Echoes Roger Stone: “Why Was Bannon Meeting Epstein?”
Musk was replying to Roger Stone, Trump’s longtime confidant, who raised eyebrows by posting:
“Why would Bannon meet with Jeffrey Epstein both at his New York home and in Paris after Epstein was convicted on sex crimes in Florida? Why would he coach Epstein for his 60 Minutes appearance?”
Stone was referencing claims from journalist Michael Wolff, who alleged in his 2021 book Too Famous that Bannon media-trained Epstein in 2019 — coaching him to appear “sympathetic” and “not creepy” for a never-aired interview.
Bannon denied the training, saying the meeting was for a documentary project to expose Epstein.
Musk Deletes Trump Accusation — Then Doubles Down
In early June, Musk posted:
“Time to drop the really big bomb: [Trump] is in the Epstein files… That is the real reason they have not been made public.”
He later deleted the post and apologized — but on Tuesday, Musk returned to the issue, writing:
“How can people be expected to have faith in Trump if he won’t release the Epstein files?”
Bannon vs. Musk: MAGA Feud Escalates
Bannon hasn’t taken Musk’s attacks lightly.
He’s previously called Musk a puppet of the Chinese Communist Party, and even suggested the Tesla CEO should be deported.
Now, with Musk turning his fire on both Trump and Bannon, tensions in the MAGA world are heating up.
