Bill Maher’s audience audibly gasps when he reads what the Democratic Socialists of America are actually saying out loud: MAHER: “Trump has told 1 trillion lies, but when he says the DSA are actually COMMUNISTS, that’s not one of them.” “And it’s not hard to prove it just by quoting the DSA and their candidates.” “J.D. Vance was on the show, and I told him that if the Democratic Party keeps going in the direction of the DSA, my vote was in play. And all I heard all vacation was, ‘Oh, my God, you’re a Republican now.’ No, that's not...

Bill Maher just put Vice President JD Vance on notice that his support in 2028 is up for grabs. The “Real Time” host made the admission during Friday’s episode on HBO, telling Vance his vote could swing rightward if Democrats keep drifting toward socialism, as seen on a video clip of the show. “Like, if this is where the Democratic Party is going, where this Democratic socialist, this obsession with Israel, with the Jew hating, they don’t believe in capitalism, no prisons. If this is where they’re going, my vote is in play,” Maher told Vance. Vance, 41, welcomed the...

JD Vance has refused to stop claiming election fraud over the 2020 presidential election ... even after Bill Maher called him out to his face.Read the video transcriptTrump can't run again, and he'd be a little too exciting for me anyway. So it's either gonna be you or Rubio. Here's my deal breaker for your side, OK. Under Trump, you guys have two outcomes that an election can be either we win or they cheated. That has to stop. And the person who. And that means. The person who has to stop it would be you or Marco. Can you...

elf-professed liberal Bill Maher threw some surprise support behind LA candidate Spencer Pratt's mayoral run this week. Maher, 70, repeatedly praised the reality-star-turned-politician's 'drain the swamp'-approach to politics on Monday's edition of Club Random. He agreed that current Mayor Karen Bass and other local leaders did not do enough after last year's wildfires.

He admitted: 'I mean on so many of these things, and you just have the...

Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., said Democrats alienated young male voters by increasingly portraying men as "part of the problem" during a wide-ranging discussion with Rep. Dan Crenshaw, R-Texas, and Donna Brazile about masculinity, parenting and the Democratic Party's struggles with working-class men. "Well, without a doubt, though you know there's part of the Democratic Party became more and more anti-men or describing that they were part of the problem, or they have toxic traits," Fetterman said during the discussion on "Real Time with Bill Maher." "And that's why there's been such a big, big migration away from the Democratic Party...

And finally, new rules. Since yesterday was Israel's birthday, having become a nation on May 14th, 78 years ago, everyone must either wish her a happy birthday or admit they're anti-Semitic. Now, it's everyone's right in a free country to be anti-semitic. But enough with hiding behind Israel or Zionism or Netanyahu. If you think, as so many do now, that when it comes to human rights, Israel is the monster country of all time, you either don't read or you don't care about your own hypocrisy because there are so many worse places. But that's where we are these...

The United Kingdom has fallen. It’s a country where people are jailed for flipping off traffic cameras, where social media posts can also land you in prison, and where smoking is now banned for anyone born after January 1, 2009. That’s just the tip of the iceberg, and it makes one proud to be American that they are not part of this chaos. And HBO’s Bill Maher was not shy about discussing it either.

It's vitriolic because it just encourages the asinine behaviors and reactions in those whose default setting is to be reductive of people,' he added.

President Trump tore into comedian Bill Maher in a Truth Social post late Saturday. "I hate seeing Fox, and other Conservative Outlets, constantly making Low Rated Bill Maher 'relevant' as it pertains to the Republican Party, and beyond. Bill Maher is a weak and ineffective person who I got to know very well during my dinner with him at the White House," he wrote. Trump referenced California Gov. Gavin Newsom's recent appearance on Maher's HBO show. "Maher was defenseless, and totally deficient. Either he didn’t have the knowledge, or he choked, because Gavin went on and on about how good...

Comedian Bill Maher pointed to Vice President JD Vance’s recent remarks from a trip to Hungary during Friday's episode of "Real Time," suggesting the idea of Western civilization is real and worth defending. "Another thing JD Vance said is, ‘We will stand with you for Western civilization,’" Maher began, referencing comments the vice president made in support of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán while framing his government as a defender of Western civilization.

Stephen A. Smith tore into both Republicans and Democrats Friday for lacking clear leadership, suggesting the country is facing a political vacuum while bluntly asking, “Where’s the leadership?” “Look at the Republican Party right now. It’s Trump. You know what I said the other week on my show? I said, ‘Y’all do know he’s leaving in 2028, right?’ Unless he circumvents the 22nd Amendment and runs for a third term, he’s leaving,” Smith said of the GOP on “Real Time with Bill Maher.” “JD Vance, you ain’t [Trump]. Don’t think you are. Marco Rubio, thank God he doesn’t try to...
