- Jesse Watters asserted that Epstein’s wealth came from Lex Wexner, Leon Black, and the Rothschilds, and described Epstein as “mostly just a fixer” who could procure “a girl.”
- Brian Kilmeade quipped “Hanged from a noose” during a riff about Epstein performing at a future halftime show, after Watters and Gutfeld joked about the idea.
- Gutfeld defended Pam Bondi and derided House Judiciary members as “drama queens,” calling committee witnesses “imposters” and the hearing political theater.
