Watch Stephen A. Smith win over Bill Maher’s audience with a brutal response to the Olympics banning trans athletes from women’s sports. MAHER: “I imagine this is going to be… another [issue] where you can make Democrats die on the hill that they died on last time.” SMITH: “If... it’s an issue within the Democratic Party, that’s their own damn problem.” “Biological men should not be competing against biological girls in sports, PERIOD.” “I don’t want to get in the way of anybody’s civil rights, civil liberties, or anything like that. But what about protecting the young ladies? Young ladies going up against men, you know, biological men. There is no excuse for that.” “And by the way… Lia Thomas (the swimmer) was ranked over 400th in the world.” “And then he became a she… and NUMBER ONE!” “Well, damn it. Does it really take an Einstein to realize that there’s something wrong with that picture?!” [Bill Maher and the room break out in laughter] “I mean, are we kidding ourselves?!”show more

Bill Maher can't understand why Sophie Cunningham is getting so much flak for saying women shouldn't compete against biological men. CUNNINGHAM: "I am here to extend love, but I also think that love is truth and being honest. And I want to protect young girls in a locker room or young girls in sport who shouldn't have to go against biological men." MAHER: "This is where about 80% of the country is." MATT WELCH: "And Martina Navratilova is and has been for a long time. Prominent athlete (former tennis star) and lesbian." Maher is right. According to a New York Times/Ipsos poll, 79% said trans athletes should not be allowed to compete in women's sports, including 94% of Republicans and 67% of Democrats. Just like the border in 2024, this is an issue that makes Democrats unelectable to the average voter.

Bill Maher just came to WNBA star Sophie Cunningham’s defense after she spoke out about protecting girls in sports from biological men. Maher fired back at the critics, clarifying that Cunningham never said she “hated trans” people...and that her position is shared by 80% of the country. MAHER: “The Indiana Fever star Sophie Cunningham…” “She said I got a lot of feedback and negative feedback about me hating trans.” “She didn’t say she hated trans.” “She said I’m here to extend love but I also think that love is truth and being honest.” “I want to protect young girls in the locker room or young girls in sport, who shouldn’t have to go against biological men.” “Again…this is where, what, 80% of the country is?!”

I shared a video from Nick Freitas yesterday about how to encourage and reach young men. You should check it out if you didn’t see it. Now, here is a clip that shows how to repel and discourage young men. This is so frustrating, Sean DeMars and Neil Shenvi. Leaving aside the whole “woke right” thing, whatever. You acknowledge that the Left has total cultural control. Then you mock the idea that white men are systemically discriminated against in our culture, or that we live in an effeminate gynocracy. What do you think the Left does with its total cultural control? You mock young men by claiming that their discrimination has no basis in reality, but has to be understood via some “gnostic” higher knowledge. This is not fair. We are starting to get more and more hard data on this issue. I will admit that there is an element of “look around, this should be obvious.” It should be, and you’re really sticking your head in the sand to deny these things. But being on the Right is to believe in God’s created reality. It’s not about “lived experience,” it’s about what is actually true. White men are being discriminated against in this culture, and the West has been feminized radically in the last 60 years. The biggest problem with the woke was always that they were wrong, beyond even their philosophical system. It wasn’t merely that they were claiming to be oppressed, but it was that this claim was wrong. "This argument sounds like that argument" is just so lazy when one was factually wrong, and one is factually right. The claims of the Right are correct in general. But at the end of the day, good luck crapping on young men like this. We'll see how that works out for you. I won’t be joining you.

💥NEW: Stephen A. Smith on SCOTUS trans athletes ruling💥 "Let me be very, very clear. Boys should NOT be competing in women's sports. It's a DISSERVICE to the young ladies out there." "We don't even have to get to the other parts about men in women's bathrooms and all that stuff. I don't agree with that either! I got two daughters. H*ll no! H*ll no!" "But this is strictly about transgenders competing in women's sports. No! It was NEVER right. It was ALWAYS wrong ... Riley Gaines is right. Period! She's right." "I'm not backing up. She's certainly not backing up, nor should she. Common sense rules the day, ladies and gentlemen."

NEW: Karoline Leavitt weighs in on the men-in-women's-sports debate following Sophie Cunningham's viral comments supporting protecting women in sports from competing against biological men: "Men should not be playing in women's sports. It's completely ludicrous that anyone could support that." "It's even more ludicrous that you do have Sophie Cunningham, a female athlete herself, very accomplished in her own right, coming forth and speaking that truth that men should play in women's sports." "The backlash she is receiving from Democrats and left-wing figures across the country is astonishing. They are clearly very out of touch with the American public on this issue, which again, is an 80/20 issue. It's common sense."

Sophie Cunningham just became a hero to every young girl who still wants a fair shot. She doubled down HARD: “I said what I said… keeping biological men out of women’s sports. I think it’s common sense. I think I’ll always believe in that. It’s really important to protect children and that’s little girls… That’s why you have Title IX. That’s why you have some of the greats in women’s sports.” While Megan Rapinoe and the usual suspects melt down calling it an “attack on women,” Sophie is out here defending the very thing that built women’s sports in the first place. Zero biological men in the WNBA right now. Zero women in the NBA. Funny how that works. Young female athletes are flooding her with thank-yous: “Watching Sophie say it out loud that girls shouldn’t have to give up fair competition or our privacy meant more than she’ll ever know… Thank you for going first.” This is what courage looks like in 2026. Protect the girls. Protect the sport. Title IX wasn’t a suggestion.

Stephen A. Smith holds a mirror up to the Democrat Party, exposing how their hatred of Trump over policy is costing them elections. Whoopi and the cast of The View did not like it one bit. Producers quickly cut to commercial and ended the segment. SMITH: “What I’m saying is, is that during the campaign were you doing what it takes to win?” “You had too many people going after him for stuff that wasn’t going to stick. It wasn’t going to influence his voters.” “So what I would say to you, Whoopi and what I would say to anybody that doesn’t want J.D. Vance or Marco Rubio or somebody like that to succeed him, focus on what’s going to win!” “That’s where my sports background comes in. Tell me what’s going to win!” “I don’t want to hear about…I understand the LGBTQ community is important. I understand that the desolate and disenfranchised, somebody we should be looking out for, I understand the economy and I understand immigration, I get all of that.” “But the point is, I’m trying to win to make sure that I’m in office and you’re not. What is it going to take?” “The Democrats did not do that last time, and that’s what happened.”

WHOA: Bill Maher looks JD Vance dead in the eye and says his “vote is in play” for 2028. Maher openly admitted to Vance that if socialists take over the Democratic Party, he’s likely voting for him or Rubio. MAHER: “Like, if this is where the Democratic Party is going, where this Democratic socialist, this obsession with Israel, with the Jew hating, they don’t believe in capitalism, no prisons...” “If this is where they’re going, my vote is in play.” VANCE: “Okay, I like to hear that.” MAHER: “It actually always has been. Every year, I don’t make my decision by who has an R or a D, I actually always came to the conclusion that the Democrat was probably better and voted for them.” “And Trump can’t run again and he’d be a little too exciting for me anyway.” “So it’s either going to be you or Rubio.”

This Democrat Senator in Washington says he CAN'T acknowledge that there are biological differences between men and women that would give boys an advantage over girls in sports. "I don't have the scientific expertise to be able to weigh in on that." Are you kidding me?

🚨 PRESIDENT TRUMP JUST UNLEASHED "Everything they have is so CRAZY, but the fact that they don't want to sign voter ID is another issue, it's a big issue! The fact that they don't have proof of citizenship, that they want transgender for everybody, that they want men in women's sports." "So the only way, they assume, the only way they can win is to cheat!" "When you have men in women's sports, it's fine, it's wonderful. By the way, I worked very hard with the Olympic Committee and got that terminated for the Olympics. Very nice." "Now, girls won't have to get beat up in the boxing ring like they did last time. If you saw those fights, two people that transitioned beat the hell out of everyone, out of other people, women. It was not a pretty sight to watch." "So I worked very hard with the Olympic Committee and we were able to get that out. So the Olympics will not have men in women's sports."

Sophie Cunningham Just Told The TRUTH About Men In Women's Sports The WNBA star laid the Trans agenda to waste in a new interview with ESPN. "I got a lot of negative feedback about me hating trans. And I'm like, 'I never once said that’.” "I think that I am here to extend love. But I also think with that love is truth, being honest. And I want to protect young girls in a locker room, or young girls in sport who shouldn't have to go against biological men." That’s real bravery: Telling the truth.

The Democrats, there is this crazy idea in the Democratic Party that if you just repeat insane ideas, eventually the American people are going to believe them.

This is Bill Maher at his best. Maher dragged Patton Oswalt out of his bubble and forced him to confront the brutal reality of the UK’s immigration crisis. He exposed the horrifying details of Muslim grooming gangs, while Oswalt tried to play dumb. Maher didn’t let him. MAHER: “What’s going on in England right is a lot of that.” OSWALT: “What’s going on in England?” MAHER: “Again, not in the bubble…a lot of violence, protests, immigration.” “Andrew Sullivan, for example, says places that my grandfather would not even recognize anymore as British.” “Like, immigration is great, anything can be too much. It’s become ‘Islamicized’ to put it briefly.” Oswalt tried to hand-wave it away. OSWALT: “Anything can be too much, but a lot of times the way that things are framed and represented, is also amplified so that they can make their point.” Maher hit him with the bombshell. MAHER: “But do you know about…the grooming scandal?” OSWALT: “No.” MAHER: “See, that’s a big story!” He then laid out the details the left refuses to confront: “I’m talking about Pakistani men, who were immigrants, who were grooming poor, impoverished White girls, mostly, and making them into prostitutes and sex slaves.” “Like really nasty shit, that would pass for more normal in a traditional Pakistani society, where women are not considered equal citizens.” Maher then delivered his most devastating point: “And if you don’t understand that, and that gender apartheid is the number one issue that you woke people should be concerned with, but seem not to be, then right away we’re not really seeing the world as the same way.” “I’m seeing it much more clearly.” “Gender apartheid should be your NUMBER ONE issue, if you really care about oppression, like a lot…I’m talking about hundreds of millions of the world’s women.” “And it’s mostly because of the tenets of Islam, to be perfectly honest about it.” “In the interest of DEI, they are allowing practices that are so illiberal—which is the great irony—this is the LEAST liberal thing you could be is treating women as a second-class citizen and getting away with shit like this.”

Texas!” Don Lemon: “But if it’s in the entire America, if it’s 5% [tax] of all billionaires, where are they going to go. Are they going to move to another country?” Bill Maher: “If you make it a federal law?” Don Lemon: “Yeah.” Bill Maher: “Well, that ain’t going to happen.”
