* Epstein’s email Address: Jost joked about the absurdity of Epstein using the email address “jeevacation@gmail,” comparing it to a similarly dark hypothetical email address for Jeffrey Dahmer.
* Putin, Trump, and “Bubba”: Michael Che addressed an email referencing Putin having photos of Trump with “bubba” (a nickname for Bill Clinton). He quipped, “So I guess that’s one job Trump has created.”
* Graphic Imagery: Che made a disturbing joke about the alleged sexual encounter, stating the image was burned into his brain like a scene from The Shining, and the segment showed a manipulated image of Trump and Clinton superimposed onto that scene.
