He’s a gun grabber and member of PETA. He never was a libertarian or had any libertarian tendencies to begin with.

My guess is that his libertarian label had two purposes:
1) It put in a position to oppose those in power. Shows seem to do better that do that.
2) It was about pot. The legalize crowd claims to be libertarian, while they don’t understand any libertarian positions beyond opposition to the war on drugs.

Reminds me of MSNBC allowing for Hardball, a Democrat hack show that should have been Leftball, but they obscure that to fool as many as they can into watching it.

Isn’t Maher one of the guys constantly complaining about the “big money” corrupting our politics?

Maher is the ultimate idiot—aka one who laughs on his way to Hell.

A person who has been dead for two days is better looking than Maher.

Maher’s million dollar contribution is just bait to lure the presidential butt within range of his lips.

Bill Maher is sort of like Al Franken, in that his primary source of fame and success comes from being a creepy jerk that the left holds up as their political guru.

Question ..... what is the maximum donation legally allowed for a personal contribution to a PAC ?

What is the corporate donation limit ?

Bill Maher’s name is his corporation pretty much. Just wondering about specifics etc .... anything a socialist prick like that poser does deserves scrutiny in depth IMO.

How did this guy go from a libertarian to a socialist?

If he could drink it, smoke it, snort it or screw it, MAher was a libertarian. If it didn't fall into those categories, Maher is dim-twit totalitarian socialist.

At least he isn’t running around claiming to be “Politically Incorrect” anymore. I wonder if he ever figured out why most Americans considered that show to be such a joke?

That money probably isn’t even his. Just more foreign money being laundered through the state of California courtesy of Kamala Harris.

Always my first thought as well when socialist progressive celebs give up “anything”.....cash, country and their soul.

Stay safe !

I keep forgetting Maher has (or had) a show. I honestly keep forgetting about him until he does something stupid.
