- During the Grammys, host Trevor Noah joked that since Epstein is gone, Trump needs a new island to spend time with Bill Clinton, referencing Greenland.
- Trump denied ever visiting Epstein’s island, called the comment false and defamatory, and attacked the broadcast on Truth Social as “the worst.”
- He said he would send his lawyers to sue Noah and criticized CBS, though news outlets reported no formal lawsuit had been filed as of Monday.
- The Justice Department days earlier published more than three million pages of Epstein-related records that include references to Trump, Bill Clinton and others.
- The ceremony also featured pointed political statements, with Bad Bunny saying “ICE out” and Billie Eilish declaring “no one is illegal on stolen land.”
