Trump tries to bury the Epstein scandal, but Elon Musk will not allow him

It seems that Elon Musk is convinced that he has finally found the heel of Achilles Donald Trump, the only issue that could break the indelible loyalty to a movement that made America great again (Maga): Epstein’s notorious files and treated by the Trump administration.

For years, the cancellation of Jeffrey Epstein’s records was a sacred cup for many on the right. The belief, which the influencers now shared in the seats of power, was that the files contain a secret “list of customers” that would reveal corruption and corruption on a large scale between the strong Democrats and the numbers of the “deep state”. He was seen as the final political weapon. In his previous life, the FBI director, Cash Patel, as a right -wing media figure, told Jalain Beck in 2023 that Trump should “on the first day,” Black Book. “

This long expectation is what made the last advertisement of management explosive. On July 7, the Ministry of Justice and the Federal Investigation Office issued a joint memorandum to conclude its review that did not find a list of legendary clients and there is no new information that can lead to fees. The long -awaited bomb was Dodd, and the repercussions were fast, which created deep cracks within the administration itself. according to Multiple reportsA major break between the leadership of the Ministry of Justice and the Federal Investigation Office appeared to deal with the case files.

According to conservative commentator Dan Bonjino, deputy director of the FBI, the Prosecutor Bam Bondi is now dealing for a review at a White House meeting. Reports from Fox News and other outlets indicate that Bongino has distanced the results and is considering resigning in protest.

In the midst of chaos, the FBI director, Cash Patel, published a statement that he carefully formulated on X. “Conspiracy theories are not correct, were never”, Batel wrote on July 12, without clarifying whether he denied reports of the dispute or the potential resignation of Bongino. “It is an honor for me to serve the President of the United States @realdonaldtrump – and I will continue to do so as long as he invites me.”

Conspiracy theories are not true, and they were not. It is an honor to serve the President of the United States Realdonaldtrump – I will continue to do so as long as he is calling for me.

This internal revolution prompted President Trump to intervene. In the familyEngineer Message On the social truth, he tried to close the controversy by framing the entire Epstein case as a conspiracy spread by his political enemies. Trump wrote, urged his allies to stop “playing in their hands”: “They created Epstein’s files, just as they created the file of Hillary Clinton/Christopher Steel file.” His team ordered his re -focus on his political grievances and “not wasting time and energy on Jeffrey Epstein, a person who no one cares about.”

“Let Bondi do her job – it’s great!” The president concluded.

But where Trump saw a political inconvenience, Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and the founder of Spacex, saw deep moral failure. In a direct response to X, Musk ignored the entire political narration of Trump. Instead, he interfered in the main injustice of the scandal, which increased the anger that Trump sought to extinguish.

“This is a very big deal,” Musk has published hundreds of millions of his followers. “What kind of hell in which we live if thousands of children are abused, the government has videos of the aggressors, yet no aggressors face charges!”

This is a very big deal.

What kind of hell in which we live if thousands of children are abused, then the government has videos of the aggressors, yet none of the aggressors face accusations!?

The reprimand was immediate and strong. While Trump tried to control his political world, MUSK used his huge platform to announce that justice was more important than political games. The division highlights a fundamental difference between the two men: Trump sees the world through the lens of political power, while MUSK, in this case, put himself as a hero for basic justice.

This general dispute represents one of the most important moments of the opposition from Trump’s orbit and it seems to be the latest flash point in the rapidly escalating political divorce. Their alliance is ranked once, which has witnessed the leadership of Musk, a government efficiency team (DOGE), broke in recent weeks due to the basic differences on politics. The rift in a general view of “one beautiful bill” for Trump, a comprehensive tax and spending package that was removed as “disgusting abomination”.

I am sorry, but I can’t stand anymore.

This is a draft law of huge Congress, obscene, filled with pork is disgusting abomination.

A shame for those who voted for her: You know that you made a mistake. You know that.

The policy dispute soon turned into a direct political challenge. In early July, Musk announced the formation of the “America Party”, a third -party movement aimed at challenging the political establishment. This step was a clear indication that musk is no longer satisfied with being a Trump ally.

While their previous battles were on fiscal policy and political strategy, this recent clash of Jeffrey Ibcchin is different. By refusing to allow Epstein’s story to sweep under the carpet, MUSK uses his platform to force a conversation that Trump wants to end it, which proves to be one of the few figures on those who want the right and able to challenge the president directly.
