Elon Musk has said an Axios report that the Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) had concluded there was no evidence of a Jeffrey Epstein client list was the “final straw”.

The report also said the agencies had concluded there was no credible evidence the disgraced financier and pedophile blackmailed high-profile and prominent individuals, and confirmed that surveillance footage showed Epstein had killed himself in prison.

“So… umm… then what is Ghislaine Maxwell in prison for?” Musk posted to his X platform, referring to Epstein’s former girlfriend and associate who procured underage girls for him to abuse.

    Two complete but tangentially connected sentences that you’re trying to link are joined with a semi colon. If it were only a quote and not intending to connect two separate but related sentences or thoughts a colon would have been appropriate.

    Notice how I didn’t change the intent of your comment, I merely offered advice rather then insisting you don’t know what the intent of the sentence you wrote is.

                You were joining two related thoughts. If you’re going to be a Grammer Nazi you better be correct every time or people will throw it in your face.

                And again, leave me alone professor disingenuous.

                    Common isn’t always correct, the proper punctuation is a semi colon because it’s not just a quote it’s your quote linking two sentences to make one more complete thought.

                    If you’re going to be a pedant to me twice at least try to be correct once.

                    And again I can’t make it more clear, stop contacting me.
