Jimmy Kimmel is calling B.S. when it comes to Melania Trump denying ties to Jeffrey Epstein. The First Lady held a surprise public address at the White House on April 9, apparently blindsiding husband Donald and other White House officials, in order to declare she’s “never been friends with Epstein.”

“I have never had any knowledge of Epstein’s abuse of his victims,” Melania told the press. “I was never involved in any capacity—I was not a participant, was never on Epstein’s plane, and never visited his private island… I have never been friends with Epstein. Donald and I were invited to the same parties as Epstein from time to time, since overlapping in social circles is common in New York City and Palm Beach.”
