It's not certain what Trump's 2005 messages for Epstein were for, but the Palm Beach residents who lived 2 miles apart were in a bidding war at the time.

Elon Musk's father has weighed in on his son's high-profile feud with President Donald Trump. Errol Musk compared yesterday's clash as two "elephant bulls or alphas having a go at each other," during an interview with Al Arabiya English on Friday.

In a post on X, the tech billionaire said: "@realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public." He gave no evidence for the claim. The White House described Musk's comments as "unfortunate".
