Stephen Colbert and college sex camping videoSeth Meyers have both weighed in on the Trump-Musk social media feud that erupted last week, and now it's John Oliver's turn.
Staring Sunday's episode of Last Week Tonightwith a recap of the big events from past week, the host quickly landed on the war of words that played out between U.S. president Donald Trump and former DOGE captain Elon Musk on X and TruthSocial on Friday. Oliver ran through it all, from Musk's dissatisfaction with Trump's "big beautiful bill" and ending with Musk dropping the (now deleted) "really big bomb" that Trump is allegedly "in the Epstein files."

"At their core, these two men are Real Housewives: Both of them have hair that's expensive and wrong; both have sketchy business ventures I don't fully understand; they both spend far too much time online; and if either of them isn't the center of attention for a single second, they will die."
