Two bits from Bill Maher’s latest show

Here are two short (ca. 7 minutes each) clips from Friday’s “Real Time” show with Bill Maher; watch ’em before they take them down.  They’re both good–and larded with humor. The first is his opening monologue about the censorship and fear of American media. Maher points out that Jimmy Kimmel’s firing occurred exactly 24 years […]

But he also call’s out the Left’s attempted curbs on free speech (I didn’t know that Lisa […]

Bill Maher: Latest “new rule” on timorous Democrats

I guess Bill Maher is back with his “Real Time” show, and in the latest bit he’s going to anger a lot of “progressives”. Why? Because he’s taking out after Democrats—in particular, the cowardice of Democrats.  (Even liberal Democrats haven’t forgiven Maher for saying that he had a cordial dinner with Trump—despite Maher’s having called […]

“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert”. - J Robert Oppenheimer.
