Elon Musk deleted two controversial posts from his platform X on Saturday, after spending most of the week attacking President Donald Trump online. The posts—one accusing Trump of being connected to Jeffrey Epstein and another supporting a call to replace Trump with Vice President JD Vance—both disappeared without any explanation. One of the missing posts had Elon making an unverified claim that Trump’s name appeared in Epstein’s documents. No evidence was provided. The original post now leads to a blank X page that simply says, “Hmm…this page doesn’t exist. Try searching for something else.” The other deleted post showed Elon replying “yes” to a user who called for Trump to be impeached and replaced by JD Vance, who has served as Trump’s vice president since January. Vance reacts as Musk deletes post supporting his promotion JD Vance spoke about the deleted post in an interview Friday with podcaster and comedian Theo Von, saying Elon was being emotional. “I think he’s making a huge mistake going after Trump,” Vance said, but added, “Elon is an emotional guy. He got frustrated.” The deleted posts came just days after Elon started going after Trump over his administration’s massive tax and spending proposal, known as the “One Big Beautiful Bill.” Elon, who recently wrapped up his role running the Department of Government Efficiency, had been publicly supportive of Trump just a week earlier. The sudden change shows how fast their relationship has collapsed. That bill appears to be the trigger . Elon has publicly expressed frustration that the legislation didn’t include key policy goals he had pushed for. Karoline Leavitt, Trump’s press secretary, spoke to CNN and dismissed Elon’s attacks as political whining. “This is an unfortunate episode from Elon, who is unhappy with the One Big Beautiful Bill because it does not include the policies he wanted,” Karoline said. But the Epstein accusation is what escalated things. Elon claimed the reason certain Epstein documents haven’t been released is because Trump’s name is in them. He gave no proof, no documents, and no follow-up. Just a bold accusation and then silence. Trump responds with warnings and ends relationship Speaking to Kristen Welker of NBC News on Saturday, Trump said Elon would face “serious consequences” if he backs Democratic candidates in the next election. “If he does, he’ll have to pay the consequences for that,” Trump said in the phone interview. “He’ll have to pay very serious consequences if he does that,” he added, though he didn’t explain what those consequences might be. Trump then made it clear the relationship is over. “I gave him a lot of breaks, long before this happened,” he said. “I gave him breaks in my first administration and saved his life in my first administration. I have no intention of speaking to him.” When asked if the relationship is finished, Trump replied, “I would assume so.” He also criticized Elon for being “disrespectful to the office of the president.” Your crypto news deserves attention - KEY Difference Wire puts you on 250+ top sites
