Elon Musk publicly defended Donald Trump after The Wall Street Journal<\/em> published a controversial letter allegedly written by Trump to Jeffrey Epstein around 2003. The letter, found in Epstein\u2019s birthday letter book, reportedly featured a sketch of a nude woman and the line, \u201cHappy Birthday \u2014 and may every day be another wonderful secret,\u201d signed \u201cDonald.\u201d Musk expressed skepticism on X, saying the letter didn\u2019t sound like something Trump would say.<\/p>\n

Trump vehemently denied the letter\u2019s authenticity, calling it \u201cfalse, malicious, and defamatory.\u201d He warned Rupert Murdoch and The Wall Street Journal<\/em> that publishing the letter would result in legal action. After the article went live, Trump reiterated his threat, calling the letter a fake and promising to \u201csue [Murdoch\u2019s] ass off.\u201d<\/p>\n

In response to the renewed scrutiny surrounding Epstein, Trump announced he had instructed Attorney General Pam Bondi to release select files related to Epstein\u2019s criminal case, pending court approval. However, it remains uncertain whether a judge will allow the documents to be unsealed. Bondi said she was prepared to petition the court by Friday.<\/p>\n

White House officials also denounced the report. Vice President JD Vance called it \u201ccomplete and utter bullshit,\u201d and Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt labeled it a \u201chatchet job.\u201d Leavitt claimed the Journal never provided a copy of the alleged letter, admitting they didn\u2019t have it in their possession when asked.<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s legal threats and push to release Epstein-related documents come amid ongoing tensions with Rupert Murdoch and conservative media, reflecting a growing rift in previously aligned political and media circles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
