Bill Maher Bashes Pete Hegseth as ‘Worst Thing to Hit the Pentagon’ Since 9/11
Breitbart ^ | 04.28.2025 | Paul Bois

Posted on 04/28/2025 7:22:46 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Comedian Bill Maher recently bashed Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, calling him the “worst thing to hit the Pentagon” since the September 11 terrorist attack.

Maher delivered his hit against Hegseth during his “New Rule” segment on Friday night’s episode of his HBO show.

“New Rule: Pete Hegsteth’s parents have to take away his phone. He can have it back when he’s shown us he’s grown up enough to use it responsibly,” Maher said.

“I’m not saying Pete makes a terrible defense secretary, but he’s the worst thing to hit the Pentagon since Flight 77,” he added.

Bill Maher’s joke referenced the time National Security Adviser Mike Waltz mistakenly included The Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg in a group Signal chat wherein Hegseth and other members of the Trump administration discussed sensitive details about U.S. military strikes in Yemen. Weeks later, another report alleged that Hegseth created a Signal messaging chat that included his wife and brother, granting them access to sensitive military discussions.

"Comedian Bill Maher recently bashed Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth."

Shut up, Maher. You are irrelevant and no one is interested in what you have to say.

I would like to see Bill get in the boxing ring with Pete and go a few rounds, if he could even last beyond 30 seconds.

It is the fall back position, in his blood, hard to let go and think clearly.

Oh, its the Signal “scandal” again? Old news. I’d say move on to something new but there is nothing new. The MSM strategy is to keep beating on Signal as if its a weekly new scandal.

Make up sex.

Maher and the far left just took a break. Now they’re back in bed together.

Why oh why would anybody expect otherwise? Rabid dogs do not heal. He has no brain, he just studies the script given him and reads it.

When Maher speaks an opinion, on any topic, he speaks with the confidence of one who has done his research. But has he?

Obviously not of he thinks these “leaks” are worse than the degrading of the actual military over the last few years with DEI, lower physical standards and handing over billions of our defense assets to Ukraine.

If Maher is against him he must be doing good for the nation.
