President Donald Trump's feud with Tesla/SpaceX/X.com leader Elon Musk took an ugly turn when Musk, referring to the late convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, tweeted, "Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files.

A handful of congressional Republicans have raised questions about the Trump administration's handling of the Epstein case.

Epstein was a wealthy and very well-connected financier who was arrested in 2019 on federal sex trafficking charges. He was found dead in his cell at a federal jail in New York City about a month after his arrest. Investigators concluded he died by suicide.

The first scenario would be shameful and inexcusable. The second would be an unprecedented and historic political and legal scandal. The third option may be the least nefarious, but even if we assume that is what we are dealing with, what we have seen lately is disturbing for entirely different reasons.

Elon Musk mocked the Department of Justice’s new memo that concluded convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein was not murdered and that there was “no credible evidence” that he maintained a “client list” to blackmail “prominent individuals.

The only other explanation that I can think of, again, maybe you’ve got another, is that intel services are at the very center of this story,’ Tucker Carlson said this week.

Tucker Carlson isn’t buying the Department of Justice’s insistence that there’s nothing buried in its files on Jeffrey Epstein—and suggested a far more nefarious cover-up that explains its claims. Carlson said on his podcast Tuesday that it was “obvious” Attorney General Pam Bondi was “covering up crimes” by not disclosing the fabled “client list” Bondi said in February was sitting on her desk.

Conservative commentator Tucker Carlson openly claimed that Jeffrey Epstein was working for the Israeli intelligence services as he addressed a Turning Point USA event Friday. This is a much-discussed conspiracy theory which has now found its way to the mainstream after the Donald Trump administration closed the Epstein case.

For years, President Donald Trump's inner circle suggested there was more to the Jeffrey Epstein story and said Trump should reveal all. A timeline.

Right-wing influencers have accused the Trump administration of withholding evidence of the Justice Department’s investigation into Epstein.
