Here’s what New York Post reported:

Tesla CEO Elon Musk angrily accused a top Trump aide of leaking information about key appointments in the next administration during a “massive blowup” at a dinner at Mar-a-Lago, according to a report.

Musk, who was named co-head of a new advisory body known as the “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE), has been feuding with Boris Epshteyn, a special assistant to Trump’s during his first term in 2017 who still holds sway with the president-elect, according to Axios.

Last Wednesday, the tension between the two men reportedly reached a boiling point at Trump’s Florida estate. Dinner guests witnessed a “massive blowup” and a “huge explosion” as Musk lashed out at Epshteyn about tipping off the media, the outlet reported.

“You don’t know what you’re talking about,” Epshteyn, who gave Trump legal advice during his recent criminal trials, reportedly fired back.

Musk and Epshteyn were not immediately available to comment.
