This is odd.  We already knew that Trump and Epstein were friends at least for some period of time and have seen photographs of them together.  We also knew that Trump kicked Epstein out of Mar-a-Lago allegedly for the way he treated some of the staff and we know Trump's name appeared in the Epstein black book and other details emerged from several hours of recordings of Epstein's own recounting of his dealings with Trump from 2018 that was released early this year. (Let's assume the details in those recordings are factual)  If the FBI had this information (and they clearly held all of the Epstein files) then why didn't they release it to thwart Trump's chance at a second term?  The FBI lied to Congress and to the FISA court about the reliability of the Steele dossier so why would they have sat on their hands with actual incriminating evidence from the Epstein files? Smell test not passed here.

  Is this Elon speculating as to why the Epstein files haven't been released or does he actually know something?

  What are you doing Elon?
