Comedian Bill Maher slammed President Joe Biden this week for his continued failure to secure America’s southern border, saying that Biden’s executive order this week is effectively meaningless and will change nothing.

Maher made the remarks during his “Real Time” show Friday evening on HBO while talking about the reason that he believes Biden is going to lose in a rematch this November against former President Donald Trump.

“If Biden loses this election, it’s going to be because of two things: He’s old … and immigration,” Maher said. “I mean, just on a political level, I don’t think they could have handled it worse.”

“He’s finally, after saying he couldn’t do anything, he’s gonna issue an executive order — by the way, this is the same executive order Trump tried to get through the courts and they didn’t let him do it,” he said. “But he’s gonna finally try it six months before the election, which says we will put a cap of 2,500 now, asylum seekers coming in. If it passes 2,500, if it’s 2,501, then we automatically close the border. Fire marshall says ‘No more!’ He’s gonna come here and close the club! And if you don’t have a stamp on your hand, you can’t get back in!”

“But when it goes down to 1,500, then we resume standard asylum procedures. It’s like surge-pricing with Uber,” he continued. “It’s a bizarre scheme that of course has pleased nobody. It looks like a last minute — it looks like he did nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing.”

Maher then claimed that Republicans spiked a bill on the border because they didn’t want it to pass despite the fact that most Republicans who came out against the bill did so because they pointed out that it would have effectively made Biden’s illegal immigration crisis even worse.

“Now [Biden’s executive order] looks like this is his last minute before-the-election Hail Mary pass, and it’s not gonna succeed,” Maher said as he then noted that Biden has let in nearly 10 million illegal aliens into the country, a number greater than the entire population of Nicaragua.

“He let in all of Nicaragua,” Maher said.

Top Israeli officials said on Saturday that they will stop at nothing to bring home the remaining hostages that Palestinians terrorists kidnapped during their October 7 massacre in Israel.

The remarks come after the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) launched a rescue operation earlier in the day — which included airstrikes and special forces commandos executing raids at two locations in Gaza — that successfully led to the recovery of four hostages who were still alive.

“Today, Israel carried out a remarkable rescue operation, freeing four hostages held by Hamas,” said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. “We’re committed to getting the release of all the hostages, and we expect Hamas to release them all — but if they don’t, we’ll do whatever it takes to get them all back home.”

“Hamas is committing war crimes every day, including the holding of these hostages,” he added. “Our soldiers are performing in the most valiant and moral way to end this war with a victory against these killers and against these kidnappers, and we shall prevail.”

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said in a video message that the mission was “one of the most heroic and extraordinary operations I have witnessed over the course of 47 years serving in Israel’s defense establishment.”

“IDF, ISA and Special Forces, as well as the forces who supported [those in the field], have conducted an unprecedented operation — daring in nature, planned brilliantly, and executed in an extraordinary fashion,” he continued. “The various security agencies cooperated closely — the IDF, ISA, and Special Forces — acting as one single unit.”

He noted that there was “heavy” gun fire that erupted during the rescue operation, which he said happened in the most complex [urban environment in Gaza].

“I do not remember having completed operations of this kind — at this intensity and with this level of cooperation and success,” he said, later adding: “We will do everything possible to return all the hostages home.”
