Billionaire Elon Musk posted a statement on X after the latest dump of over 3 million pages from the Epstein files on Friday.
Musk has previously called for the Epstein files to be released. However, in the latest batch, there were some email exchanges from Musk himself, including emails between Musk and Epstein in 2012 and 2013, discussing a potential visit to Epstein’s private island.
From Breitbart: The emails released Friday show Musk’s name with his email address redacted. In October 2012, Epstein invited Musk to his island, telling him, “you won’t suffer.” Musk begged off due to work commitments, but added that after reaching goals at multiple companies, he “could use a break.”
In November 2013, Epstein offered to send Musk a private helicopter to transport him to the island, asking “how many people will you be for the heli to island?” According to the documents, Musk responded that it would be just him and Riley. In the same exchange, Musk asked, “What day/night will be the wildest party on your island?”
Musk has stated emphatically that he never went to the island, although the emails show Epstein continuing to invite him, and offering to send a helicopter to pick him up.
As expected, the media pounced on the emails between Musk and Epstein. Musk then released the following statement:
Nobody has fought harder for full release of the Epstein files and prosecutions of those who abused children more than I did, knowing full well that the legacy media, far-left propagandists and those who are actually guilty would:
1. Admit nothing
2. Deny everything
3. Make counter-accusations against me
I knew that I would be smeared relentlessly, despite never having attended his parties or been on his “Lolita Express” plane or set foot on his creepy island or done anything wrong at all.
Nonetheless, the extreme pain of being accused of being the opposite of who I am was worth it.
The strong must protect those cannot protect themselves, especially vulnerable children. I will gladly accept any amount of future pain to do more to protect kids and give them a chance to grow up and have happy lives.

This is exactly how I felt stepping forward about the trans mutilation of children. Worth all the slander, defamation, and threats. https://t.co/IvOFHvAJmg
