William Shatner just tweeted the following:“It’s called Presentism and it was used wreak havoc on history several years ago when statues were torn down, books were banned and things renamed to prove how progressive the world had become. Just listen to my opening monologue on Star Trek TOS on Paramount+. They intentionally garbled it on every episode because I say ‘where no man has gone before’ That’s Presentism at its finest hour.”https://x.com/WilliamShatner/status/1909959257753358797

During his recent Club Random podcast, HBO Real Time host Bill Maher bemoaned the return of Donald Trump to Washington D.C. and insisted that he just might quit both his HBO talk show and his standup career to avoid having to deal with Trump again. “I’m shitting my pants. I mean, I may quit because I don’t want to do another,” Maher said while speaking with controversial guest Jane Fonda. “I did all the Trump stuff before anybody. I called him a con man before anyone, I did ‘he’s a mafia boss,’ I was the one who said he wasn’t...

Comedian and HBO host Bill Maher called Jane Fonda “naive” during their “Club Random” podcast conversation during which the Hollywood actress demanded the end of fossil fuels as we know it. “It’s never going to happen,” Maher said. Jane Fonda appeared on Monday’s episode of the “Club Random” podcast during which she and Bill Maher chatted on a wide range of subjects, including getting old (Fonda turns 87 this month), marriage, and politics. At one point, Fonda steered the conversation to her favorite activist cause — climate change.

Smith and Bill on the bad things about certain sports, Aaron Judge's post-season struggles, PED’s in sports, nepo babies, boxing’s big problem, how the Dems lost America, identity politics versus big stuff like the economy, immigration, crime, dating preferences, Stephen’s Trump interactions, aging and attractiveness, and hope for the future.

Comedian Bill Maher and Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson engaged in a tense clash over the issue of transgender athletes in sports. As part of a wide-ranging discussion about the many reasons why the Democrats lost the 2024 election, Mahher and Tyson delved into the topic of the recent resignation of Laura Helmuth, the former chief editor of Scientific American magazine, who stepped down from her post after the revelation of deleted social media posts in which she referred to Trump voters as the “meanest, dumbest, most bigoted” people. Helmuth chalked the posts up to “shock and confusion” following the election....

It's time for Democrats to stop screaming at people to “get with the program,” and instead make a program worth getting with.

Bill Maher once again blasted the left during Friday’s episode of his HBO show, “Real Time.” Maher, who is a centrist liberal, declared that Democrats lost the presidential election because they were “brats” and “snobs.” “I’m sure every single member of the Saturday Night Live cast was a Harris supporter, but what if one of them wasn’t?” Maher asked. The comedian continued, “What if one of those cast members was for Trump? Would they have felt comfortable saying so? I really don’t think so. They would have had to keep it to themselves. That’s not a good place for us...

Maher opened his show suggesting the left's "intolerance" to Democrats who don't toe the party line on every issue cost them votes this election.

Today Legion M announced the feature documentary William Shatner: You Can Call Me Bill will debut in theaters in North America on March 22, which happens to be Shatner’s 93rd birthday.

William Shatner playing the role of Michael Myers is not something you will find on the actor's resume, but in a way, the Star Trek legend has been playing the Haddonfield killer since his first appearance back in 1978’s Halloween. As everyone knows by now, the mask used by Michael in the franchise, which has become so synonymous with the character that it has never changed across many sequels and reboots, was originally just a regular Captain Kirk mask from a costume shop, but does the likeness to Shatner mean he is in line for any royalties from the horror...

The European Union has just run crosswise with Captain James T. Kirk, and by any measure the Captain is right to blast Europe’s left-wing, nanny state, cancel culture, loons for their latest “diversity” move. This week, news broke that the EU — which apparently stands for Entirely Useless — is looking to make the world safe from evil “gendered” words, like man, male, guys, and anything testosterone related, The Telegraph reported. This impinges directly on one of Captain Kirk’s most famous lines, the one that serves as the opening monologue to the famed 1966 series, “Star Trek.” TV viewers and...

“Shatner blamed “stupid human beings for the threat of extinction.”

William Shatner is a man who has spoken powerful English in a long acting career. As Captain Kirk, he said, “Sometimes a feeling is all we humans have to go on.” And the actor also said, "I always use a stunt double. Except in love scenes. I insist on doing them myself." He was the oldest man ever to fly in space. God Bless William Shatner. Lets not let manhood die.
