Comedian Bill Maher called Democratic politicians "cowards" while doubling down on his stance that the Sept. 11, 2001, hijackers were not — a position that infamously led to ABC canceling his show more than two decades ago.
In a segment on HBO's "Real Time with Bill Maher" Friday, the comedian reaffirmed his opinion that "the terrorists weren't cowards" which he initially said after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
"I know a guy whose show got canceled just for saying the terrorists weren't cowards. And that guy was right. They weren't cowards, but I'll tell you who is: Democratic Party politicians," Maher said.
He added that this "moral confusion" within the party is most notable when talking about "a place called Gaza."
"A little strip of land that was not part of the original Israel, but which they won in a war launched against them, but then gave back as a peace gesture," he said.

Right-wing political commentator Megyn Kelly has an issue with Caitlin Clark. On Sunday, August 2, Clark was asked to weigh in on the growing debate over transgender athletes competing in women's sports after her teammate Sophie Cunningham said she opposed it. While speaking with the media, Clark gave a brief, PG response that appeared to sidestep the debate altogether. Kelly wasn't buying it, blasting Clark's response as "cowardly" on both her podcast and social media.
On "The Megyn Kelly Show," the former Fox News anchor unleashed on some of the women in the WNBA, many of whom have come out in support of transgender athletes and spoke about the importance of inclusivity in sports.
"These women's coaches are absolute effing cowards, and we have taken one step forward, two steps back when it comes to this issue. I am sick of people who don't know anything about this spewing their ignorance all over the internet, whether it's verbally or through their dumb T-shirts or the attacks on the Sophie Cunningham who simply spoke truth about how it's not fair to allow men to compete in women's sports," Kelly said.
Kelly went on to say that she was surprised that the topic of transgender athletes competing in women's sports was still a pressing topic, adding that she believed people had moved on from this conversation several years ago.
She then turned her attention to Clark and blasted the Indiana Fever star for her PG answer on the topic. "I'm sorry, Caitlin Clark was directly asked to speak on it, and she was cowardly! She refused to do it," said Kelly.

Is this where we are in 2026? I know there is a culture war raging across the United States, but we're talking about Texas here — TEXAS.
But let's back up for a second…
The college football playoff is the all consuming driver in the sport now. There's no way around it, and we have nothing to blame except for everyone. Conferences, networks, fans, coaches, politicians, alumni… everyone is to blame for trying to make the CFP bigger than the sport itself. We've lost sight of what we are and what we have been for decades.
Don't get me wrong — I too enjoy the college football playoff, but not once have I ever uttered with meaning that it's more important than the season itself. There's a difference.
Still, there is so much tied into the CFP that it's no big mystery as to why programs start doing stupid things — which brings me to the New Age Cowards. It doesn't matter of it's a southern California surfer bro or a Texas panhandle oil bro… the bros are running scared.
