Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Monologue: Epstein Files, Bubba, and Political Mayhem

(00:53 – 11:35)

• Epstein Document Dump:
  Colbert unpacks the political crossfire after Congress released new documents from the Epstein trove, skewering both parties’ media strategies and the unintended consequences for Trump.

  • “In this new batch, Trump's name appeared over 1600 times. Wow. That's a big number. What numbers are less than that? 900, 600, 500, 1200. That checks out.” (02:33)

• The “Bubba” Email:
  With his trademark irreverence, Colbert riffs on the now-infamous 2018 email from Jeffrey Epstein’s brother referencing “Trump blowing Bubba,” exploring internet theories and the official denial that the “Bubba” in question refers to Bill Clinton or even a horse.

  • “If people have to deny that you went, shall we say, Churchill Downs on a horse – you've already lost. I don’t know what you’ve lost, but it’s gone forever.” (07:35)

• Republican Infighting and Trump’s Response:
  The host details the legislative battle over releasing the Epstein files, Trump’s frantic attempts to pressure Republicans, and the comedic chaos that ensued, including Trump’s flamboyant social media posts.

  • “When intimidating MAGA failed, Trump tried another desperate ploy… I will be asking AG Pam Bondi and the Department of Justice, together with our great patriots at the FBI, to investigate Jeffrey Epstein's involvement and relationship with Bill Clinton...” (09:09)
  • “If he really has nothing to hide, Trump as President can order the Department of Justice to release the Epstein files… Yes, if he wants, Trump can provide the full release, something he did not provide. A horse.” (11:24)

Welcome one and all Mr. And Mrs. America and all the ships at sea to the Late Show. I'm your host, Stephen Colbert. Hey, how was your weekend? Good. Great. Small talk over. Let's talk about Epstein. Okay. Last week Democrats in Congress released a handful of salacious emails about Trump from a trove of documents provided by the Epstein, including one in which Epstein says that Trump quote, knew about the girls that prompted Republicans to accuse Democrats of cherry picking. Let's pause there for a second, guys. I'm going to say for this one, maybe go with a different fruit. That's just my advice. This is for you now. So to prove the Democrats were, let's say pineapple choosing House, Republicans released 20,000 plus pages of other Epstein documents. They did it to show that they were way more transparent than the Democrats who they say released just enough to make Trump look bad. And they were right because the Republicans additional release of documents made him look awful. For instance. Okay, just for starters, in this new batch, Trump's name appeared over 1600 times. Wow. That's a big number. What numbers are less than that? 900, 600, 500, 1200. That checks out. Now, these are not casual mentions either. In one email, Epstein wrote, I have met some very bad people. None as bad as Trump. Not one decent cell in his body. Whoa, it's gotta hurt. When Jeffrey Epstein calls you a bad guy. That's like cold. That's like an airport muffin accusing you of being drunk. Now, it's possible that this big trove of emails the Republicans dumped out there were supposed to be sort of a flooding of the zone and to muddy the waters and make the story confusing and take it off the front page. But this weekend, one of those emails captured the nation's hearts and minds. It was. You know what it is? I can tell. It was from Jeffrey Epstein's brother Mark, who emailed Jeff in 2018, telling him to ask Jeff's friend Steve Bannon, quote, if Putin has the photos of Trump blowing Bubba. Okay, okay, okay. I don't want to talk about this. I mean, I try to be a good person. You know, I taught Sunday school. We have standards at the Late show, but we also have a self imposed mandate to talk a lot about what a lot of people are talking about. And for the past few days, a lot of people have been talking about this email. First of all, who is this lucky Bubba? Well, lots of folks pointed out that Bubba is a nickname for former President Bill Clinton. Okay, one second. Hold on. Ready? Nope, not enough. More, more, more, more. Wow. The Ed Sullivan Theater always wanted to come in here, but our hot president on President fun was short lived because Mark Epstein released a statement saying this email was, quote, part of a humorous private exchange between two brothers. And any attempt to conflate that reference with President Clinton misrepresents both the purpose and the tone of the original correspondence.

[Ad Lib/Commercial Voice]

Boom.

[Stephen Colbert]

Boom. Mark, let us have a silly one. I mean, we were off the air when this story broke, and I never even got to do jokes like, now we know how Trump got a taste for politics. And this means the President's recent legislation is technically Trump's second big beautiful bill. Okay, okay, I told you. Okay, we've had our fun. Ha ha. But the truth is important. It was not Bill Clinton. So next, the folks on the Internet started claiming Ghislaine Maxwell had a horse named Bub. Check the batteries. I don't know what's wrong with this thing. So intrepid reporters reached out to Epstein's brother, whose spokesperson said the 2018 message was not about a horse. That's actually too bad. It could have been Trump's most stable relationship. Thank you very much. Thank you. Now, again, none of this is true, I'm being told, but I'm going to go ahead and say that if people have to deny that you went, shall we say, Churchill Downs on a horse, you've already lost. I don't know what you've lost, but it's gone forever. Keep in mind, these emails weren't even the ones we're waiting for. They were again released by Epstein. The Justice Department still won't release their Epstein files. But that might be about to change, because last week, Arizona Representative Anelita Grijalva was finally sworn in. And. As promised, she became the final signature needed on the discharge petition, which could force the release of the Epstein files. So when this happened, Trump began, and I don't want to get bogged down in psychological jargon here, freaking out and pressuring other House Republicans who had signed the petition to withdraw. It got so serious that top Justice Department officials summoned Republican Congresswoman Lauren Boebert to a meeting in the White House Situation Room. Yes, so named after the little known founding father from New Jersey, Mike the Situation Sorrentino. Yeah, yeah, he's in that new Ken Burns documentary now. Boebert stuck to her guns. So Trump tried intimidating other anti pedophile Republicans. On Saturday, he posted lightweight Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Brown Greengrass turns brown when it begins to rot. Betrayed the entire Republican Party. If you have to add a footnote, listen up. Your mama is so fat that when I say she sits around the house, what I mean is she takes up the entire cubic volume of a standard American home. I'm talking two bedrooms, two and a half bath, zestimate. Zestimate of $400,000. Your mom. Your mom is a chunko. Is the gist of my insults. When intimidating MAGA failed, Trump tried another desperate ploy posting. I will be asking AG Pam Bondi and the Department of Justice, together with our great patriots at the FBI, to investigate Jeffrey Epstein's involvement and relationship with Bill Clinton. Larry Summers, Reid Hoffman, JP Morgan Chase, and many other people and institutions. JP Morgan and Chase. Wow. He's telling the United States Attorney General to investigate his political opponents for Bill Clinton. That's gotta come as a real blow. Hey, great joke, Steven. Thanks. Sex positive stallion. So Trump did everything he could to quash the vote on the files and distract from him, but none of it worked. In fact, here's Kentucky Representative Thomas Massie yesterday talking about GOP support for the bill. I think we could have a deluge of Republicans. There could be a hundred or more fun fact deluge of Republicans. Also the name of America's most boring water park. Okay, so sounds like a bunch of Republicans are going to vote for this bill to release the Epstein files. And after it was obvious he was going to lose, Trump posted House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files because we have nothing to hide. I don't care. All I do care about is that Republicans get back on point. Ironically, if he really wants Republicans to get back on point, and if he really has nothing to hide, Trump as President can order the Department of Justice to release the Epstein files without Congressional authorization anytime he wants. Yes, if he wants, Trump can provide the full release, something he did not provide. A horse. We got a great show for you tonight.

Julia, it's always nice talking to you. I've gotten to talk to you a few times over the years and we're both empty nesters. I mean, we share that in common. I feel like our relationship's getting pretty tight these days.

[Julia Roberts]

Yeah.

[Stephen Colbert]

But even given how close we are, there are some ways that you don't know some people. You know, it's like there's this armor we put up between each other. And what do we most want to be? Not alone. We want. We want to be known by other people. And so what we have done just really as a service to some of our guests here at the Late show, is we've come up with something called the Colbert Questionnaire. It's a series of questions that are. That have been psychodynamically charged in order to get underneath the tripwire of our own defenses. And so you will be fully known to people if you answer these questions honestly. And I'm wondering whether you have the courage to be known.

[Julia Roberts]

Do you have the courage to know me? To receive me?

[Stephen Colbert]

We will do our best. We will brace ourselves. All right, brave girls, here we go. Colbert questionnaire. Julia Roberts, what is the best sandwich? Oh, yeah, we don't play. We don't play here.

[Julia Roberts]

Well, God, there's so many. Okay. The best sandwich of my youth.

[Stephen Colbert]

Okay.

[Julia Roberts]

Everyone's gonna hate. But then I grew up. The best sandwich of my youth. Peanut butter and jelly with sour cream and onion potato chips smashed in it.

[Stephen Colbert]

Nothing wrong with that. I'm not hating on that.

[Julia Roberts]

This is a house divided right now. Did you hear that?

[Stephen Colbert]

Oh, 100%.

[Julia Roberts]

Yeah.

[Stephen Colbert]

100%.

[Julia Roberts]

Yeah.

[Stephen Colbert]

Okay. On what bread?

[Julia Roberts]

Wheat. Oh, not white, because it would stick in the gap in my teeth.

[Stephen Colbert]

Did you used to have a gap in your teeth? Could you whistle through it?

[Julia Roberts]

No, but I could put a popsicle stick in it. I was adorable.

[Stephen Colbert]

What was the first concert you attended?

[Julia Roberts]

Cheap Trick.

[Stephen Colbert]

Cheap Trick. Rick Nielsen.

[Julia Roberts]

Yeah.

[Stephen Colbert]

Holy cow.

[Julia Roberts]

It's one of the cooler, like, like, rando facts of my life. I want you to want me.

[Stephen Colbert]

Your mama's all right.

[Julia Roberts]

Yes.

[Stephen Colbert]

Daddy's all right.

[Julia Roberts]

Yes.

[Stephen Colbert]

Wow. That's great.

[Julia Roberts]

And my mom thought I was at Donna Walters house studying for a math.

[Stephen Colbert]

Test, and you snuck out to go see Cheap Trip.

[Julia Roberts]

Yeah. Which I never did that. Honestly, I never did that.

[Stephen Colbert]

But it was worth it for that.

[Julia Roberts]

It was. Yeah.

[Stephen Colbert]

Damn.

[Julia Roberts]

Thank you for that response. Yeah.

[Stephen Colbert]

Rick Nielsen wrote the theme song to the Colbert Pour.

[Julia Roberts]

Is that the truth?

[Stephen Colbert]

Yeah. Because I called him up and I said, I'd love you if you wrote the theme song to my show. Because my character, the Stephen Colbert who was the character that in my mind, every night before he went out to do his show, he would look into the mirror and sing along with the entirety of I Want yout To Want Me Live from Budokan.

[Julia Roberts]

Wow.

[Stephen Colbert]

That was my backstory.

[Julia Roberts]

I think you were putting time into that.

[Stephen Colbert]

Yeah, backstory, not back. Reality backstory.

[Julia Roberts]

Got it.

[Stephen Colbert]

What is the scariest animal. Oh.

That's a good one.

[Julia Roberts]

Gosh, I love you people.

[Stephen Colbert]

Do you still have it?

[Julia Roberts]

I don't think I do.

[Stephen Colbert]

Where did it happen?

[Julia Roberts]

At the Atlanta Civic center where my dad took me to see the king. And I still determined to make me cry. Not gonna do it.

[Stephen Colbert]

Aw. Yul Brenner or dad?

[Julia Roberts]

Both.

[Stephen Colbert]

Aw.

[Julia Roberts]

Yeah.

[Stephen Colbert]

Window.

[Stephen Colbert]

[Julia Roberts]

Honestly, it's. It's. And I love my boys. I have two. But when the socks are waiting too long for me to do the laundry.

[Stephen Colbert]

Sure. Yeah.

[Julia Roberts]

It's nothing against them. It's just time. Boys in general, it's just time and sweat.

[Stephen Colbert]

Earliest memory.

[Julia Roberts]

This morning.

[Stephen Colbert]

Other than today. The earliest memory on the first. Earliest memory you can remember.

[Julia Roberts]

Gosh, Honestly, it's, you know, just my family in Georgia in a park where my parents worked. Being with my sister kind of off to the side and. Yeah. Not having any idea who all the people were, like, what they were doing. They were putting on giant papier mache heads. What did I know?

[Stephen Colbert]

This was like, why were they putting on giant paper mache heads? Did they run A parents had a theater.

[Ad Lib/Commercial Voice]

At a theater.

[Stephen Colbert]

They did. Oh, that's wonderful. How old do you think you were?

[Julia Roberts]

Three.

[Stephen Colbert]

That's pretty early.

[Julia Roberts]

Yeah.

[Stephen Colbert]

Okay. Cats or dogs?

[Julia Roberts]

Well, don't tell my cat, but dogs.

Now, our cat.

[Stephen Colbert]

Do you have dogs? Have a dog?

[Julia Roberts]

We have dogs and we have a cat and our cat is a dog in a cat suit, basically. She's rad. Yeah.

[Stephen Colbert]

You only get one song to listen to for the rest of your life. Oh, what is it now? You don't have to listen to it continually. This isn't like some sort of torture situation. But when you go to listen to this is the music that you get to pick. So what would you pick if you could only have one?

[Julia Roberts]

That is such a hard question.

[Stephen Colbert]

Well.

[Julia Roberts]

There. Maybe like. I'm sorry. I know.

[Stephen Colbert]

No, all the time in the world.

[Julia Roberts]

Ok. Because now I'm conflicted. At first I thought of nothing and now I have things that are saying, no, pick me, pick me inside of me.

[Stephen Colbert]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Julia Roberts]

And I'm thinking there's this incredible song. I don't know if this is the name of it, but it's the first words of it. Oh, Darling by Supertramp. Oh, I have one person who loves me. Yeah, right.

[Stephen Colbert]

Yeah.

[Julia Roberts]
