- Bill Maher Roasts Trump For Rage-Feuding in Middle of War: ‘Tell ME Why!’
Comedian and pundit Bill Maher roasted President Donald Trump for rage-posting about their feud in the middle of a war, asking Mediaite to “Tell ME why!” On Friday night’s edition of HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher, the interview guest was New York Times bestselling author Annabelle Gurwitch, whose newest memoir “The End of My Life is Killing Me: The Unexpected Joys of a Cancer Slacker” releases March 17. The panel guests were Sen. Adam Schiff, Democratic senator from California; and Don Lemon, award-winning journalist, founder of Lemon Media Network, and host of “The Don Lemon Show” podcast. But Trump loomed over the show like an invisble guest after the president spent Friday morning peppering his social media feed with posts attacking Maher. Those posts were in anticipation of a promise Maher made to viewers two weeks ago to drop the hammer on Trump: BILL MAHER: OK, we’re off next week. The next week our show, I think March 6th, we come back. I’m going to address this at the end. His whole long screed. Yes, and prove that I don’t have Trump derangement syndrome. Maher opened the show by mocking Trump in his monologue and showing a Mediaite headline that purported to answer the burning question on Maher’s mind — why?: BILL MAHER: I’m not joking! An hour later! And what happened with the Valentine’s Day Massacre and his tweet about that, which I’ll be talking about at the end of the show. Okay, this is today. And then 15 minutes later, he did again, back to the war. “We are moving thousands of people out of the Middle East to safer places.”. Okay, an important message to get out. Then back to me. Uh, the, uh, the uh, The people at Mediate wrote a headline that said, “Here’s why Trump is raging at Bill Maher in the middle of an actual war.”. Why? Tell ME! I… This is… This is getting weird. I’m just telling you, thank God I didn’t spend the night.

Comedian and pundit Bill Maher hit back at President Donald Trump with new revelations about their dinner and post-date texts after Trump spent his morning pre-lashing out. On Friday night’s edition of HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher, the interview guest was New York Times bestselling author Annabelle Gurwitch, whose newest memoir “The End of My Life is Killing Me: The Unexpected Joys of a Cancer Slacker” releases March 17. The panel guests were Sen. Adam Schiff, Democratic senator from California; and Don Lemon, award-winning journalist, founder of Lemon Media Network, and host of “The Don Lemon Show” podcast.

The next week our show, I think March 6th, we come back. I’m going to address this at the end. His whole long screed. Yes, and prove that I don’t have Trump derangement syndrome. Maher made good on his promise this week by devoting the bulk of his “New Rules” segment to the feud. He opened with two solid minutes refuting Trump’s account of the dinner and revealing their post-repast conversations: BILL MAHER: And finally, new rule, someone has to help Donald Trump understand that I don’t suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome, he suffers from Bill Maher Derangements Syndrome. Okay, three weeks ago, I woke up to some things the president had written on his truth social media platform that, somehow, were not true. I don’t know how they got in there. It’s not like the president to just make things up when he’s mayor. But on this occasion, he did. Which I forgive, but on Valentine’s Day, that hurt. You– But just to set the record straight, from what the president claimed, I didn’t ask for the dinner. Our mutual friend asked me. It’s on tape from my podcast. Also, I wasn’t nervous and scared, and the dinner wasn’t quick. I was there almost three hours, and it wasn’t vodka, it was a margarita. I didn’t ask for it right away. I had a drink before dinner, and then a couple more during. I was having a good time. So were you, Don, because we were talking like real humans, not like that crazy act… [TheTopNews] Read More.6 hours ago
- Oil Guru Amazed How Trump Turbocharged Gas Prices With ‘Stupid’ War: ‘This...A longtime oil trader expressed amazement at President Donald Trump’s decision to go to war with Iran, because doing so “was the only way” to drastically upend global crude markets. The U.S. and Israel commenced airstrikes on Iran last Saturday, during which Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was killed, along with dozens of top officials. More than 1,000 Iranians have been killed, including more than 175 people – mostly young girls – in an airstrike on a girls’ elementary school. U.S. officials reportedly believe the American military was responsible for those killings. Iran has responded by attacking U.S. military installations in the region, including one in Kuwait that killed six U.S. service members. Additionally, Iran has also essentially shut down the Strait of Hormuz, a narrow passageway connecting the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman. The strait is absolutely vital in global trade. In 2025, 31% of all seaborne oil sailed through it. Predictably, oil prices have spiked. Over the past week, U.S. crude prices jumped 35%, which is the most in trading history going back to 1983. On Friday’s All In on MS NOW, Chris Hayes spoke with Dan Dicker, a longtime energy trader. “Oil prices have been low,” Dicker said. “Even post-pandemic, when everything was getting crazy, eggs were getting crazy, milk was getting crazy, oil prices didn’t spike that much. They spiked a bit, it’s true. Most of the reason that I’m around and twiddling my thumbs for the past three years is because oil prices have had systemic supply glut and have been flat basically since the pandemic ended.” Dicker went on to say that war with Iran was basically the only way to completely reverse the situation: The only way possible to destroy those flat prices is would be to get into a stupid war with Iran. And he’s chosen this. This was the one thing that was going right for his economy that he could point to and say, “I’m keeping gas prices low,” whether it was his fault or not. We know it’s not. But this was the only way to screw it up – and he found it. […] Basically, the bottleneck for most of the Saudi, U.A.E., Qatari supplies come through the straits of Hormuz and the straits of Hormuz have been a choke point that the Iranians have had control over for 35 years. It’s not like this is a new threat that hasn’t… [TheTopNews] Read More.6 hours ago
- Mark Levin Insists Iran War Is Actually ‘A Peace Mission’Fox News host Mark Levin alleged that the U.S. is engaged in “a peace mission” in which it has bombed more than 3,000 targets in Iran in less than a week, according to the Department of Defense. The U.S. and Israel commenced airstrikes on Iran last Saturday, during which Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was killed, along with dozens of top officials. More than 1,000 Iranians have been killed, including more than 175 people – mostly young girls – in an airstrike on a girls’ elementary school. U.S. officials reportedly believe the American military was responsible for those killings. In response, Iran has bombed several U.S. allies, including Kuwait, where the Iranians hit a U.S. military installation, killing six American service members. President Donald Trump has said the bombing campaign could last for at least a month and is reportedly considering deploying U.S. soldiers to Iran. Appearing on Friday’s Hannity on Fox News, Levin accused Democrats of trying to “sabotage” the military, which he claimed – with a straight face – is engaged in “a peace mission.” Levin said: First of all, I would ask the Democrats a question. If you had your way today, you would cut this whole war off right now. You would say, “Surrender. Get out.” They would redevelop everything that they’re developing right now because that’s what they tried to do the other day and they failed by a few votes. The American people need to understand the Democrat party is trying to sabotage the United States military, the commander-in-chief in the middle of a military operation, what they I call a peace operation because that’s what it is. Peace through strength. This is peace through strength. This is a peace mission That’s number one, number two, they’re giving aid and comfort to the enemy. Levin went on to call Democrats “the enemy within” and claimed that “the American people don’t like” the Democrats’ opposition to the war.8 A PBS News/Marist poll released on Friday shows that 56% of Americans oppose U.S. military action in Iran. Hours before the U.S. began bombing Iran last week, Levin was on Hannity and told Trump to end negotiations with the country. “There’s a time for negotiation, there is a time for diplomacy, and I think the president has demonstrated he’s bent over backwards that that time does not last forever, that that time is up!” he said… [TheTopNews] Read More.8 hours ago
- Chris Hayes Defends Peter Doocy After Trump Scolded Fox ReporterMS NOW host Chris Hayes mocked President Donald Trump for berating Senior Fox News White House Correspondent Peter Doocy on Friday. Less than a week into the war that the U.S. and Israel launched against Iran, Trump hosted a college sports roundtable at the White House to discuss ways to improve the NCAA. Predictably, reporters at the event were more interested in asking questions about the war, particularly right after The Washington Post reported that Russia has been sharing intelligence with Iran to help target U.S. soldiers. Doocy sought to get Trump’s reaction. “President Trump, it sounds like the Russians are helping Iran target and attack Americans now,” the reporter said. “That’s an easy problem compared to what we’re doing here, but can I be honest?” Trump responded. “I have a lot of respect for you. You’ve always been very nice to me. What a stupid question that is to be asking at this time. We’re talking about something else.” Hayes aired the exchange on Friday’s All In and defended Doocy’s questions by assuming the role of Trump in a mocking tune: You’re asking me about war? About our American service members being targeted by an adversary at a time like this when I am trying to solve the transfer portal? Do you know how much money these schools are paying in NIL? Do you know? We are talking about serious business here! And you want to ask about war? The host went on to say that the war “has no real objectives, no real plans, no end goals.” Watch above via MS NOW.The post Chris Hayes Defends Peter Doocy After Trump Scolded Fox Reporter first appeared on Mediaite.

- Pete Hegseth Mocks ‘Iranians That Think They’re Gonna Live’ In a preview of an upcoming 60 Minutes interview released on Friday, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth mocked “Iranians that think they’re gonna live” while answering a question on reports that Russia provided Iran with intel to target American soldiers in the ongoing conflict. In the clip, CBS News’ Major Garrett cited three sources “telling us that Russia is providing intelligence to Iran on U.S. positions and movements.” “The average American might hear that and think that’s a big and dangerous deal,” continued Garrett. “Is it?” “Well, we’re tracking everything,” responded Hegsesth. “We have the best intelligence in the world… President [Donald Trump] has an incredible knack at knowing how to mitigate those risks, and so the American people can rest assured their commander in chief is well aware of who’s talking to who, and anything that shouldn’t be happening — whether it’s in public or backchanneled — is being confronted and confronted strongly.” “So the American people can therefore expect conversations with the Russians to stop this?” clarified Garrett. “Well, I,” Hegseth stumbled. “President Trump, as people have seen, has a unique relationship with a lot of world leaders, where he can get things done that other presidents — certainly [former President] Joe Biden — never could have. And through direct conversations or indirect, through him one-to-one, or through his cabinet, messages definitely can be delivered.” “Does this put U.S. personnel in any more danger than they otherwise would be — Russia’s involvement?” asked Garrett. “No one’s putting us in danger,” said Hegseth. “We’re putting the other guys in danger. That’s our job. So, we’re not concerned about that. We mitigate it as we need to. Our commanders factor all of this, but the only ones that need to be worried right now are Iranians that think they’re gonna live.” Notably, when Fox News’ Peter Doocy asked Trump about the reports on Friday at the White House, Trump shot down the question quickly, raging, “What a stupid question that is to be asking at this time.” Watch the clip above via 60 Minutes on YouTube. The full interview will air on Sunday on CBS.The post Pete Hegseth Mocks ‘Iranians That Think They’re Gonna Live’ first appeared on Mediaite. [TheTopNews] Read More.9 hours ago
