Elon Musk has carried out a mass purge of Trump administration allies from his social media, after weeks of mounting tensions over the Big Beautiful Bill bubbled over into a full-scale attack on the integrity of officials working on the Jeffrey Epstein case.

The world’s richest man has expressed fury over Attorney General Pam Bondi’s claims that a full and thorough investigation had not produced an Epstein ‘client list’ which she had previously said existed.

‘This is the final straw,’ Musk said, sharing a meme.

One day later, he unfollowed Bondi on his X account. He then unfollowed Fox News, which had earlier platformed Bondi as she insisted she had thoroughly investigated the matter.

Trump had vowed to uncover the true extent of the ‘cover up’ surrounding Epstein’s crime and his death.

Now, the FBI and Bondi insist he did in fact commit suicide, and that the purported client list they’d long discussed does not exist.

Musk has also now purged his X account of other Trump allies, including House Speaker Mike Johnson, Congresswoman Nancy Mace, Energy Secretary Chris White, MAGA activist Scott Presler and the White House‘s Rapid Response account.

He railed against the Trump administration for not taking any action to arrest those related to Epstein’s child sex trafficking crimes, twice suggesting it was because they were looking to cover for people on the list.

Back in early June when he and Trump first fell out over the Big Beautiful Bill, Musk sensationally claimed on X that the president was ‘in the Epstein files’ and thus trying to delay their publication.

‘Time to drop the really big bomb: [Trump] is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!’,’ he wrote, before ultimately deleting the post and apologizing.

Now he claims that former Trump advisor Steve Bannon is implicated in the files.

Trump addressed the Epstein files on Tuesday during a Cabinet meeting, appearing to mock a reporter who questioned Bondi’s findings.

‘Are you still talking about Epstein? This guy has been talked about for years. Are people still talking about this creep? I can’t believe you’re asking a question about Epstein,’ the president said.

Trump’s base, including high-profile allies like Tucker Carlson and Glenn Beck, are demanding answers and accusing Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel of ‘lying’ to the American public.

Right-wing journalist Laura Loomer posted: ‘Who releases a statement about the Epstein files on the Sunday night of 4th of July weekend? Someone who doesn’t want you paying attention.’

Earlier this year the Trump administration hosted conservative influencers to the White House to give them updates on the Epstein files.

The group was trotted out of the residence holding binders that claimed to contain additional information on Epstein and his crimes.

However, the contents of those binders were later discovered to be full of previously disclosed information and lacked any new bombshells as promised.

Bondi said in February Epstein’s client list was ‘sitting on her desk,’ but has since walked back that statement.

Musk’s status within Trump’s political sphere has been teetering on the brink for months after the duo fell out over Trump’s controversial Big Beautiful Bill, which ultimately passed through Congress last week.

He described the bill as an ‘abomination’ which would ‘destroy millions of jobs in America and cause immense strategic harm to our country.’

Trump’s BBB is $3.3 trillion legislation package encapsulating much of what he campaigned on, extending the 2017 tax cuts and eliminating tax on tips and overtime.

At the time, many Republicans refrained from publicly criticizing Musk even as he and Trump’s tit-for-tat worsened.

Speaker Johnson said at the time: ‘I count Elon Musk as a good friend, and Congressional Republicans appreciate everything he has done to put a spotlight on waste, fraud, and abuse in government.

‘With all due respect, Elon is simply wrong about the One Big Beautiful Bill.’

But the relationship has soured even further with Musk’s latest round of attacks and in light of his vow to launch an America Party to run against the Republicans and Democrats.

The party will challenge Republicans in the 2026 midterm election, targeting specifically those who voted in favor of the BBB – which was all but five Republicans.

‘I am saddened to watch Elon Musk go completely “off the rails,” essentially becoming a TRAIN WRECK over the past five weeks. He even wants to start a Third Political Party, despite the fact that they have never succeeded in the United States,’ Trump said.

Even Trump’s most loyal right-hand woman, referred to as the ‘Ice Maiden’ in Washington, has now weighed in on the demise of the bromance her boss and Musk briefly enjoyed.

Chief of Staff Susie Wiles said Musk appeared to have a ‘fatherly fixation’ on Trump and the pair shared somewhat of a father-son connection.

‘It was a great thing when it was a great thing, and had a very, I think, a very troublesome ending,’ she said.

‘The president was very, very kind to him, and Elon had so much to offer us… I know that what has been said doesn’t ring accurate to me, but I don’t know, I enjoyed working with Elon.’
