Welcome to Best of Late Night, a rundown of the previous night’s highlights that lets you sleep — and lets us get paid to watch comedy. Here are the 50 best movies on Netflix right now.
A MAGA Meltdown
Some fans of President Trump have felt betrayed since he dismissed the conspiracy theories about Jeffrey Epstein’s death in a lengthy social media post, basically telling them to move on.
On Monday, Seth Meyers called the MAGA infighting “a monster of their own making.”
“They made the Epstein conspiracy a center of their worldview, despite the fact that Trump and Epstein were photographed together, and partied together, and Trump called Epstein a terrific guy, and Epstein called Trump his closest friend of 10 years.” — SETH MEYERS
“In a post over the weekend on Truth Social, President Trump told his supporters to ‘not waste time and energy on Jeffrey Epstein, somebody that nobody cares about.’ Yeah, nobody cares about him! The guy only had, like, one friend.” — SETH MEYERS, referring to Trump
“How dare you fixate on a story from the past, something Donald Trump has never done? He’s focused on the issues of today, not the 2020 election, or the Russia investigation, or Hunter Biden’s laptop, or Hillary Clinton’s email server, Joe Biden’s autopen, or Rosie O’Donnell making fun of him, or his ratings for ‘The Apprentice,’ which ended in 2015, or deceased golfer Arnold Palmer’s unusually large penis, which, by the way, we have yet to see definitive proof of.” — SETH MEYERS
“That’s right, President Trump reprimanded his supporters on Truth Social for focusing on the Epstein files — and maybe some other stuff. I only made it through Chapter 1.” — SETH MEYERS
“This is the most Trump’s written since Hooters got on Yelp. Look, I don’t know if Jeffrey Epstein killed himself, but I’m sure, after this, some of Trump’s advisers did.” — SETH MEYERS
The Punchiest Punchlines (Flat Earth Edition)
“Oh, here’s a sentence I’ve never said: There’s some fun news involving Jeffrey Epstein.” — STEPHEN COLBERT
“Wait a second. If it was sitting on Pam Bondi’s desk in February and now it doesn’t exist, that can only mean one thing: Someone stole Pam Bondi’s desk.” — STEPHEN COLBERT, referring to Epstein’s supposed client list
“Yeah, everyone from Trump supporters to Democrats are asking to see the Epstein files, and everyone who isn’t is definitely in those files.” — JIMMY FALLON
“You can’t take this away from your base — that is MAGA’s favorite conspiracy. What are we going to find out next? That immigrants aren’t eating cats? That if you sail to the horizon, you don’t fall off the world?” — STEPHEN COLBERT
