How Was Musk’s Army Status Revealed?
On June 4, 2022, Musk shared a controversial post on Twitter. The meme featured – a fire-breathing dragon, a dinosaur, a unicorn, and a text that read, “The Epstein/ Maxwell client list,” – under the title, ‘Things I’ll never see in my life’. His caption read, “Only thing remarkable than DOJ not leaking the list is that no one in the media cares. Doesn’t that seem odd?”

The text in his meme is a reference to the infamous billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. Musk questioned why the Justice Department has not yet leaked Epstein’s client list, potentially exposing other wealthy elites who took part in the illegal sex-trafficking ring.
After his origianl tweet, he acknowledged that the previous tweet was controversial and may make him some enemies. He tweeted, “Sometimes I think my list of enemies is too short, so…” To this, Dogecoin’s original creator Shibetoshi Nakamoto replied advising Musk not to “say anything bad about BTS.” Shortly after that Musk replied that he is in fact a fan of BTS.
