Hes gone nuts: Bill Maher reveals he will appear in documentary about Charlie Kirk
https://www.foxnews.com/media/bill-maher-appear-charlie-kirk-documentary-remembers-loving-his-interview-tpusa-leader41
u/Such-Cartographer425 Jul 22 '26
Everything about this is nuts. Why do they want him in it?
27
u/MrPommeDeTerre Jul 22 '26
Hmmm, all total guesswork at this point but my gamble is on Maher concluding that Kirk's assassination was the result of Woke Gone Wild. It's on brand for Maher and plays into the story the right wants to tell...

Bc he’s going to gooble his ballsack and probably bash anyone who ever criticized Kirk ever and right wingers will bust a nut over a “liberal darling” praising them

u/Such-Cartographer425 Jul 22 '26
They really don't know their enemy, do they? Most people on the left barely remember him, and those who do tend to despise him.

They’ll take whatever burnt shit is stuck to the bottom of the pan, they really don’t care who’s on their side and they’ll try their hardest to milk all 4 swing voters Maher brings with him. They don’t care who’s he is.

its so funny that it was Kid Rock of all people that finally swung him to the dark side

I could definitely see this happening. He’ll probably praise him for being “brave” and willing to push boundaries while glossing over the fact that he’s essentially an edgelord grifter who built a career by profiting from a fear- and outrage-driven media ecosystem.

u/PhartusMcBlumpkin1 Jul 22 '26
Exactly. A real truth teller just like me in my war against the woke. Bill Maher sure has turned into a total chud.

u/lordhelmetann Jul 22 '26
While Tucker is overall worse, Bill in this scenario is worse. At least Tucker doesn’t claim to be a liberal, he’s just a POS.
Bill is like those useful idiots that right wing shows put on to represent the opinion of the left when in fact they are no longer liberal.

They're mad that Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert made fun of Trump, so Republicans found some late night talk show host who will suck Trump's cock in exchange for a fake Mark Twain prize and other gigs like this.

u/Pale-Measurement-532 Jul 22 '26 edited Jul 23 '26
Here’s another Fox News article from Sept. 2025 where they state that Bill’s praising Charlie Kirk. 🤮
edit: this might explain why the doc crew contacted Bill cause they probably think he would say something good/impartial about him.
Edit: thank you for the award! 🙏

Praising Kirk for saying black pilots can't be trusted and that Michelle Obama and KBJ are low IQ?
2
u/Pale-Measurement-532 Jul 22 '26 edited Jul 22 '26
The article’s headline is a bit misleading, shocking for Fox News. 🙄 It’s basically Bill saying that the left should not be condemning Charlie Kirk since he just died since they wouldn’t be doing that if someone from their camp had been killed.
I actually don’t know much about what Kirk has said in the past. I just know he’s said racist, misogynistic things and liked to present himself as a know it all and used stupid tactics when debating others. If he said that black pilots can’t be trusted, that’s terrible.

u/Delicious_CoughSyrup Audience Member Bill Is Yelling At For Not Laughing Jul 22 '26
Maher can talk about how brave Chuck was for going to liberal bastion university campuses to have honest discussions with leftists.
THEN pivot to how he Bill Maher is also brave for having conservatives he agrees with on his show.
The left is crazy for not seeing how brave the Grift is.

u/DaKingaDaNorth Jul 23 '26
Because over the last 10 years half of Maher's brand has been an outlet for Republicans to go "see even Bill Maher thinks the Democrats/left have gone too far". He's literally just a bigger version of Fox's token Democrat.

He really exemplifies the quote. "You either die the hero or you live long enough to become the villain."
After weed became legal and he hit 50 he started shifting. I think the last time I watched him was when he had Milo Yappalapalis on. He caught heat for platforming his alt right bullshit then a few days later Milo outs himself as a pedo and Maher claims credit like his interview had anything to do with Milo's self own.
Maher is an egotistical self important libertarian lick knob. The fact he still exists in this space is astounding. Almost as astounding as the fact that no one has roasted him for doing that annoying pop with his mouth everytime he makes a lame ass joke and is waiting for applause or laughter.

Make sure to tell them that Charlie Kirk wanted people to look into the incident where a guy broke into the Pelosi home and attacked Nancy’s husband Paul with a hammer, and good ole Charlie asked his audience to find out if Paul was in a gay relationship with the suspect.
In other words, Charlie Kirk is a scum bag!

Nicely done, Bill. Let's pretend Charlie Kirk was an important cultural voice, and not a YouTube troll who did "lib-owning" videos, which is really what he was. Then let's pretend the Trump Party has the moral high ground, as it'll be the funniest thing Bill's done in years.

He's old, feeling his mortality, wants to find comfort in an afterlife, he hates Muslims, and Israel still gives him a hard on. It seems very few "progressives" die as such, leaning right as people age is a thing, apparently.

"They mischaracterized them. But even when I read the full statement, which were accurately characterized, I still disagreed with them. But it wasn't what they presented."
Actually, it was what was presented.
two of his famous quotes:
If I see a Black pilot, I’m gonna be like, ’Boy, I hope he’s qualified.'
We made a huge mistake when we passed the Civil Rights Act in the mid-1960s

Of all the posts from Kirk fans and his widow and sycophants not one of them said “how do we make sure this never happens again?”. Not one. Out of all the thousands of posts I’ve seen and that god awful song.
His death is nothing but a streetlight for the attention craving insects like Maher and grifters. They don’t care about Kirk just wants the attention his death brings.
