The HBO comic dubbed the Palestinian keffiyeh headscarf the new equivalent of the Che Guevara T-shirt and scorned protestors' 'cosplay as revolutionaries'

The HBO comic and pundit blasted demonstrators who have brought chaos to 'normies' with sit-down protests on major roads and college campuses as damaging their own cause. He dubbed the Palestinian keffiyeh headscarf the modern equivalent of the Che Guevara T-shirt and scorned their 'cosplay as revolutionaries' while disrupting the lives of those who have to work for a living. 'Hey, if it makes you feel good to cosplay as revolutionaries. Knock yourself out. Burn yourself out. Just don't drag Gaza into it,' he said on Real Time with Bill Maher. 'Also, throwing stuff on paintings is just stupid. No one sees mashed potatoes on a Monet and thinks he's got a point, I should recycle my cans.'

Lemon had appeared alongside Scott Galloway, professor of marketing at the NYU Stern School of Business on Friday's episode of 'Real Time with Bill Maher'.

The HBO host, 68, used his show Real Time with Bill Maher to talk about child safety and insisted it is 'every adult's job to protect them'. He insisted that Republican Florida Governor Ron DeSantis was not wrong in his attempt to crack down on the 'creepy stuff' at Disney. 'As one of the few people in the public eye who's gone through life and never had kids, someone has to tell me why am I always having to defend them,' he said. Maher went on to slam the Drag Queen Story Hour trend and said it is 'time to admit' that it's 'more for the queen than the kids'.

In a conversation with Katie Couric on his Club Random podcast, the controversial comedian defended the Oscar winner, who has been accused of sexual abuse by his adopted daughter with Mia Farrow , Dylan Farrow . Maher said: 'I don't think he committed that crime ... There was two police investigations that exonerated him.' The HBO star went on to slam the actors who have denounced Allen following his fall from grace due to the allegations, which Allen has denied. 'There's these actors who won't work with him anymore and some of them made movies with him are saying, "I regret doing that." 'What a bunch of pu**ies!' Maher said. Maher went on to say that Mia Farrow was 'vindictive' and had motivation to falsely accuse Allen of raping their child. He went on: 'So first of all, I just flat-out believe [Allen]... I believe a 57-year-old man didn't suddenly become a child molester in the middle of a divorce proceeding and a custody battle in a house full of adults in broad daylight.' When Couric pushed back, saying Allen's taste in women was 'pretty damning,' Maher wasn't having it. The comedian replied: 'Do you think he's the only guy who likes that? Really? 'Do you think he's the first guy who wanted his girlfriend to dress in anklets and baby doll [dresses]? That's what we grew up on, that's what we find sexy…that doesn't make you a pervert.' Maher eventually admitted it is possible Allen is guilty, as 'anything is possible.' However, he added that there isn't enough evidence for Hollywood to have made Allen a social pariah. Dylan Farrow claims that Allen touched her inappropriately in August 1992, when she was seven.

Couric, 67, made the remarks on the latest episode of the Club Random podcast, where she talked about former President Donald Trump and the MAGA movement with host Bill Maher.

'I mean globalization and the transition from an industrial to a technological society - I don't know if you've ever been jealous of someone else or resentful - it is such a corroding and bitter, almost bile feeling,' she added. The comments have left Trump supporters in fury, as many took to social media to blast the former CBS News anchor and her comments as 'disgusting' and 'out of touch'.

Bill Maher launched into a scathing rebuke of Republicans for their flip-flopping on abortion rights, saying they resemble 'the dog that caught the car.'  The comedian, 68, laid into abortion rights while discussing Arizona's stringent Supreme Court ruling instating a near-total abortion ban, which led some Republicans - notably Donald Trump - to walk back support amid backlash.  Trump previously called for the overturning of Roe v Wade, which triggered the Arizona ruling, but angered supporters as he came out this week against a national ban. 

Billy Dee Williams defended the right of actors to portray characters using Blackface while chatting with Bill Maher.

On Friday's 'Real Time,' the unlikely comparison was made by the progressive, days after Trump's lawyers said that their client had been unable to obtain a bond to guarantee the settlement of the civil-fraud verdict against him.

The sum, he pointed out, is due to arrive on Monday, triggering him to bring up the comedic-strip cartoon's infamous distaste for the week's day. Comparing the cat's coat to the ex-head-of-state's equally orange head of hair, Maher showed no mercy as he tore into the figurative fat cat, whom he went as far as to frame as - what else? A 'p***y.'

Democrats, according to Bill Maher, should focus on class and education rather than race if they want to win the presidential election. According to polls, Democrats among non-white Americans are at their lowest point in 60 years, and Donald Trump is polling much better with them than in 2020. Americans were more complicated in their identities than ever before, and Maher said that they don't fit into neat little boxes anymore.' I don't think it earned them one vote for their strong emotional ties to Ghana,' he said.

During Bill Maher's most recent episode, he delivered a closing monologue titled "Cheer Up," which he used to say that the US economic conditions are better than Biden is given credit for. Why are Biden's approval ratings so low when things are generally pretty good?' He inquired. Yes, inflation persists for a variety of things, but a good, nice-sized TV now costs 60 bucks.' Who gets credit for that? On the phone, we've got next-day delivery, stuffed-crust pizza, medical weed, GPS, and porn. Cheer the f**k up!' He told his audience.

The 73-year-old Fox contributor made the remark on Monday, stifling a laugh as he said, 'it ain't ever going to happen.' Maher, 68, made the proposal three days before the 52-year-old Republican Haley fell out of the election after 48 hours. Maher called a ticket with Joe Biden and the ex governor of South Carolina a 'dream,' one that would guarantee a victory come November. Rove responded by throwing cold water on the commentator's assertions, describing them as "innovative" before finally shooting them down.

The Academy Award-winning actor took aim at supporters of the 2024 Republican nominee, referring to them as those who "like to f**k with people." Since stepping up his public skepticism ahead of the presidential race in 2016, De Niro has bashed Trump mercilessly for years.

Bill Maher, the host of 'Real Time,' pleaded with President Biden to accept his age and suggested that he'let his old fart flag fly.' Instead of being so dismissive of such criticism, Maher advised Democrats to make the age issue work for them instead of being so dismissive of such criticism. Maher discouraged attempts to appeal to younger voters and recommended that we concentrate on connecting with older voters. Maher later joked that Biden's funeral should be held in the state of Union embracing his age and using a walker.

The criminals have yet to be identified by authorities, but DailyMail.com has published photographs of them.

'We have some idea,' Coulter replied. We'd know if it was a white man shooting if it were a white man shooting.'
