"Fucken Wall" Also great Fox's news that Mexico is moving towards legalizing pot, defunding the cartels.

I agree that he's been great - and very funny, too! He's the best, along with George Takei, who needs to be Bill's next guest!

Early and often.
Elizabeth Warren was on Maher many times before she even became a Senate candidate; it gave her terrific exposure to a solid base of liberals young & old.i.e. Maher's audience. I'm looking forward to Maher giving the same valuable airtime to as many as possible of the strong but widely unknown Dems running in 2018.

The Olympics has preemptived Seth Meyers and Colbert and The Daily Show have been repeats, so I was looking forward to Bill Maher's take on the state of current events - thought we all could use a little humor.
