John Oliver Mocks Trump's Mentions in Epstein Emails
A TV show host named John Oliver made fun of Donald Trump because Trump's name showed up in emails from a man named Jeffrey Epstein, who did bad things.
John Oliver said it was embarrassing for Trump that even the bad guy thought Trump was a 'dick.'
John Oliver also made fun of another TV person, Megyn Kelly, for saying things that sounded like she was trying to figure out if Epstein was worse for liking younger kids or older kids, which Oliver thought was a bad way to talk about such a serious topic.
At the end of his show, John Oliver also helped auction off weird items to support public TV, and his show will be back next year.
John Oliver highlighted Donald Trump's frequent mentions in newly released Jeffrey Epstein emails, including one where Epstein called Trump the 'worst person' he knew.
Oliver satirized Trump's alleged involvement by saying it's bad when even Epstein, described as the "guy running the pervert express to crime island," thinks Trump is terrible.
The host also criticized Megyn Kelly for her remarks distinguishing Epstein's alleged victims by age, calling it "pedophile math."
The episode announced an auction of unusual memorabilia, like a bronze cast of LBJ's testicles, to support public media.
Oliver's show, 'Last Week Tonight,' is scheduled to return in February 2026.
