Comedian Bill Maher spoke to Megyn Kelly about the pro-Hamas madness on college campuses, and both agreed that the social justice warriors have lost it by sticking up for terrorists.

During Sirius XM’s “The Megyn Kelly Show” podcast, Kelly asked the host of HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher” how we got to a place where the Left is defending terrorists and supporting murderers like Hezbollah and Hamas with pro-Palestinian protestors “chanting at Jews that they can’t go to class.”

“If I ever needed a reason or rationale for making the case that the Left has changed, it would be this,” Maher replied. “The fact that they’re now marching for the terrorists, really? The people who see themselves as the most liberal people in the world, the social justice warriors, are standing with some of the most illiberal people in the world.”

“Look kids, I know you’re looking for a cause,” he added. “And that’s admirable, that kids want to have a cause. I got one for you. Women. Women around the world, especially in Muslim majority countries. Hamas? I mean, really, you’re marching for Hamas?”

The “Real Time” host said “every possible thing that is a left-wing cause they [Hamas] violate, even the people of course under the rule of Hamas hate them. It’s a fascist dictatorship. It’s worse. It’s a fascist dictatorship with a hard Right, religious bent. It’s like the worst of all worlds. And those are your heroes?”

Kelly brought up the recent TikTok trend by some young people praising September 11th terrorist attack mastermind Osama Bin Laden.

“This is one of the big problems with the Left today is they see race in everything,” Maher replied. “As the guy who is trying to, like, be the common sense person in the middle, just speak for the normies, everything, I think to a lot of people, strikes at the way it strikes me as we start with one thing, this idea over here and then we’re all the way on the other side over here.”

“And of course it’s great that we got more impatient with racism in this country; that is the appropriate response … and then it goes all the way to and ‘no one who is a person of color can ever do anything wrong,’” he added.

“That’s how you get, ‘we don’t talk about China,'” Maher continued. “North Korea starves its people. China puts the Uyghurs in concentration camps. The president of Burundi … said we should march the gays into football stadiums and kill them for just being gay … but none of these crimes are coming from white people, so crickets. Really kids, nothing? No marching against any of this?”

In December, Burundi’s President Evariste Ndayishimiye said, “If you want to attract a curse to the country, accept homosexuality.”

“I even think that these people, if we find them in Burundi, it is better to lead them to a stadium and stone them,” the president said. “And that cannot be a sin.”

A group of elected Democrats released a letter on Monday attacking New York City parents for their “hateful” criticism of the city education department’s transgender sports policy.

Back in March, a parent advisory council representing one of Manhattan’s largest public school districts passed a resolution calling for a “comprehensive review” of the city’s policy allowing trans-identifying students to play on a team of the opposite sex.

The parent council for District 2, which includes the West Village, Hell’s Kitchen, and the Upper East Side, said the 2019 transgender sports policies “present challenges to youth athletes and coaches.”

In its non-binding resolution, the parent council called on New York City’s public school district to “immediately convene” a review committee that includes parents, female athletes, coaches, and “relevant medical professionals and evolutionary biology experts.”

The city education department already plans to reject the resolution and does not intend to change the transgender sports policy, education department officials have said.

The group of 18 New York Democrats attacked the parent council for the “hateful, discriminatory and actively harmful” resolution and demanded it be formally rescinded.

“Though some of you undoubtedly think that this resolution was ‘simply asking for a conversation,’ in reality that conversation was based in anti-LBGTQ+ rhetoric that is spreading in our country, state, city, and school districts, and the impact is heartbreaking,” the letter read. “While this resolution will not result in a change in education policy, the message to trans students that they are not welcome has reverberations, and the consequences can be dire.”

Democrats who signed the letter include Rep. Jerry Nadler, Assemblyman Tony Simone, State Senators Liz Krueger and Brad Hoylman-Sigal, and five City Council members.

“Our school system must stand for justice and equity, not bigotry and hate,” the Democrats wrote. “Our community education councils must be fighting for every student, not attack, ridicule, or marginalize the vulnerable. We stand firmly in support of trans people everywhere, and urge that the CEC does the same.”

Other parent school advisory boards in the city have expressed similar concerns with the transgender sports policy, and in some cases, the debate has gotten extremely heated.

Earlier this month, the Manhattan borough president said he is ousting one member of a different community board for supporting the parent council’s resolution.

Notably, more than half of New York Democrats, 52% support requiring high school athletes to “only compete with others of the same sex that they were assigned at birth,” according to a Siena College poll last month.

About two-thirds of New York voters overall said the same.
