It’s a war of statements, insults, and explosive accusations. The American president has kicked his former best friend out of Washington. The boss of X, SpaceX, and Tesla has decided to drop a bombshell on Trump.

Donald Trump stated on Truth Social: "Elon was getting tiresome, I asked him to leave. I removed the law requiring everyone to buy electric cars when no one wanted them, and he just went crazy."

Trump is now also threatening to cancel Musk's huge state contracts.

For his part, Musk claims that Trump would have lost the 2024 election without him and accuses him of "ingratitude", but goes even further: Elon Musk has announced plans to deactivate an American spacecraft.

And pushing even further and harder, he drops a bombshell against Trump, accusing him of being involved in one of the biggest sex scandals, specifically in the Jeffrey Epstein case, named after the businessman accused of organising a vast network of underage sex trafficking between the 2000s and 2010s.
