Bill Maher

Stop trying to debunk it.

This is Bill Maher apologizes to QAnon.

So I'm just going to play this video.

This is absolutely mind-blowing in my opinion that Bill Maher is saying this.

That Bill Maher is saying this.

Right.

What were your thoughts about the Epstein files and three million pages being released? And, you know, now we are hearing that Bill and Hillary Clinton have both agreed to testify in the House, you know, ahead of the contempt of Congress vote.

So, you know, I mean, QAnon, yes, a lot of crazy there.

Start your free trial today.

Welcome to an HBO podcast from the HBO Late Night series, Real Time with Bill Maher.

Oh, look at this.

I know.

Now go watch Overtime on YouTube.

Thank you, ladies and gentlemen.

It's not a huge wheel tonight, but you know, it's a hundred dollars to spin as normal, but we do have a bunch of stuff on there.

We got this terrible segment Paul pulled, which is Bill Maher, Ted Cruz, and Kid Rock in the same fucking place.

Oh,

God.

It's weird.

That hairline is in full retreat, bro.

Oh yeah, he looks like he's gonna play Bill Maher in like a biopic or something.

Young Bill.

What's the lesson in that? Is that anytime Iran, this dangerous theocratic regime, anytime they want to shut down the straight, that's the lesson that they've learned in this, which they, you know, this could have, I mean, that could have been the case at any time.

I mean, the fact that the regime in Iran needs to be dealt with many people, even Bill Morris says, I agree, you know, with the military action in Iran, that it needed to take place.

But I believe that if the economy wasn't affected by that, that's the same thing I was explaining to you guys about, you know, why Bush created the housing bubble and created that economic marketplace that gave him the economic uh, growth that he needed to show that the economy is growing, even though we, I'm taking you off to war in Afghanistan and Iraq, the economy is growing because of the housing market.

That's how, uh, how George Bush benefited from the bubble that he created.

And they are coming for his seat.

But why? This guy was elected as a Tea Party candidate.

Last week, he was on the Bill Maher show.

And Bill Maher was interviewing him.

Hey, which brings up a question.

You know, on Bill Maher's show, they sit back and he'll occasionally smoke a blunt or on Joe Rogan.

How do these guys get around the secondhand smoke laws and do that?

Well, when he does his, what is it? I forget his podcast, Bill Maher.

He's doing it in his house.

It was still – he's got

You can bend the knee now.

You can act like all of these Republicans and the Morning Joe types and the Bill Maher types who raced to Donald Trump to protect themselves and their station in our society.

But eventually, It's not going to save you.

Even if you're a Republican, you are under threat because fascism always needs an enemy.

And then so he started denouncing our health care system and Trump got offended and hit him, hit him.

And instead of ducking it, instead of pulling like a Bill Maher and trying to suck up to him, he can probably he doubled down.

And he's been battling Trump ever since.

And Trump tried to get him fired.

And there's a real hypocrisy.

And I would say, you know, when you look, for instance, at the other side of the coin and you see the sort of sneer that Bill Maher brings to his criticism of religion, you know, it's with that absolute certainty that there's no spiritual life to be had, that if people believe in God, they're believing in invisible friends and so forth.

And it's the same thing.

And so I begin from a different premise, and that is that paradox is actually a good thing.
