Epstein files 'top priority' for Musk's new America party, deepening Trump feud

Elon Musk says his America Party would prioritise Epstein files

Tech billionaire and former Trump ally Elon Musk, who recently launched his 'America Party,' stated that releasing the Epstein files will be a top priority for the party.

Musk made this statement in a series of posts on X. When asked whether exposing the Epstein files was a top priority for the America Party, Musk responded with a ‘hundred points’ emoji, signaling strong confirmation.

“How can people be expected to have faith in Trump if he won’t release the Epstein files?” Musk asked pointedly on X

When an X user asked whether “exposing the Epstein files (will) rank high on the America Party’s list,” Musk responded with a firm “100,” clearly indicating the party's intent.

He also claimed that the Republican leader appears in unreleased government documents related to Epstein, who died by suicide in 2019 while facing sex trafficking charges.

“Time to drop the really big bomb: (Trump) is in the Epstein files," Musk posted on his platform.

“That is the real reason they have not been made public," he alleged.

Musk did not specify which documents he was referring to and provided no evidence to support his claim.

He initially stood by the statement, later adding, “Mark this post for the future. The truth will come out."

However, both posts were deleted the following morning.
