Comedian Shane Gillis jabs Trump on Epstein at ESPYs

LOS ANGELES, JUL 17 – Shane Gillis used the ESPYs stage to criticize Trump’s alleged Epstein cover-up amid growing GOP division, drawing mixed reactions from the audience and sparking public debate.

  • On Wednesday, Shane Gillis hosted the ESPY Awards at the Dolby Theatre, delivering a sharp roast that included a veiled jab at President Donald Trump.
  • The Department of Justice earlier this month said Epstein did not maintain a `client list` and that no further files would be released, halting further disclosures and fueling GOP backlash.
  • During his set, Shane Gillis referenced UFC, President Donald Trump, Mike Pence and Jeffrey Epstein, also including the January 6, 2021 attack.
  • Some online users applauded Gillis’s roast, while President Donald Trump called it a `hoax started by Democrats`.
  • Broad public frustration over Epstein-related secrecy suggests deeper political fallout, as a CNN poll conducted by SSRS found half of Americans dissatisfied with government transparency about the case.
