Some of the richest men in the world are being asked more uncomfortable questions, with Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg appearing in new pictures that appear to show them at a ‘wild’ dinner attended by Jeffrey Epstein.
With continued pressure piling on President Donald Trump and the current administration to release the Epstein files, the Department of Justice has come under fire for swathes of redacted documents and missing pictures.
The DoJ had already defended the temporary removal of materials related to Donald Trump, claiming that certain pieces of evidence had been kept back to protect the anonymity of potential victims.
It's important to remember that being included in the files or pictured alongside Epstein isn't an implication of guilt, with a spokesperson for former President Bill Clinton already defending his inclusion in a December release.

Numerous big names from the world of tech have previously been questioned on potential ties to Epstein, but once again, Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg are being mentioned in the same sentence as the child sex offender, serial rapist, and human trafficker.
As reported by The New York Post, a new image from the Epstein files shows Musk and Zuckerberg among other tech giants at a 'wild' dinner held in 2015.
In an August 20 email from 2015, Epstein messaged billionaire Tom Pritzker, with the latter asking if he'd be in New York later that month. Epstein's response simply says: "Not sure yet. i had dinner with zuckerburg, mu=k, thiel hoffman, wild.”
Other emails mention a guest list that includes PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel and LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman.
It all starts with an email between Epstein and CBS News contributor Peter Attia, with the former writing: "Where are you? I might be in LA Monday, burbank to look at the interior of the other bbj, tonite dinner with Musk, Thiel, Zuckerburg."
The DoJ's files also include a picture of Musk and Zuckerberg that's supposedly from the evening in question, which Epstein emailed to himself in 2015.
People were aware of the 'wild' dinner as far back as 2019, with Vanity Fair first reporting that Hoffman hosted a meal for MIT neuroscientist Ed Boyden in Palo Alta.
At the time, a Meta spokesperson reiterated that Epstein hadn't organized the dinner and that Zuckerberg had only met him in passing.
Like biohacker Bryan Johnson saying he never spoke to Epstein after a short Zoom call, Zuckerberg's team claimed there was no further correspondence with the late financier after the dinner.
The Vanity Fair piece said that Musk introduced Zuckerberg to Epstein at the party, although this is something the world's richest man denied.
Musk said: "I don’t recall introducing Epstein to anyone, as I don’t know the guy well enough to do so, Epstein is obviously a creep and Zuckerberg is not a friend of mine."
This is the second time in as many weeks that Musk has been grilled on a supposed relationship with Epstein, speaking out on X after a series of emails between the pair appeared in a February 2026 release of the files.
In the aftermath of the latest release, Musk took to X to again defend himself, saying: "I have never been to any Epstein parties ever and have many times call for the prosecution of those who have committed crimes with Epstein."
With Musk and Hoffman exchanging barbs online, the LinkedIn co-founder also maintains he didn't do anything wrong, although he says he regrets any association he had with Epstein.
