The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 3: 5:05pm- On Thursday, President Donald Trump welcomed German Chancellor Friedrich Merz to the White House. While taking questions from the press, Trump was asked about Elon Musk’s public criticisms of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Trump accused Musk of suffering from “Trump derangement syndrome”—explaining: “He’s not the first. People leave my administration and they love us and then, at some point, they miss it so badly. Some of them embrace it and some of them actually become hostile.” Musk responded in a series of vitriolic social media posts which included suggestions of impeachment, the threat of creating a new political party, and accusing Trump of being in the Epstein files. 5:15pm- While publicly feuding with President Trump over the proposed Republican tax and budget bill, Elon Musk posted to X: “Time to drop the really big bomb: Donald Trump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!” Rich notes that prior to this specific post, reconciliation between the two billionaires was still possible. But with these explosive allegations, any chance of friendship is now likely off the table. 5:20pm- While appearing on Joe Rogan’s podcast, FBI Director Kash Patel refused to get involved in the Donald Trump-Elon Musk feud. Although, he did address Musk’s claims that Trump is referenced in the Epstein files—explaining: “I don’t know how he would know.” Patel also revealed that he was recently “swatted.” 5:40pm- What color tie should Rich wear on the Laura Ingraham Show later tonight?
