Despite years of claims that Jeffrey Epstein kept a "client list" and that his death behind bars was suspicious, the Department of Justice and the FBI have reported that the disgraced New York financier and convicted sex offender never kept such a list and died by suicide.

"Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files," Musk wrote in a since-deleted tweet, which arrived amid a major falling out with the President. "That is the real reason th
