Overview

• Bill Maher argued that Democratic thought leaders are not rebuking anti-American and pro-Hamas rhetoric among young supporters, which he claims poses a significant political threat to the party.
• He highlighted polling data showing that less than 25% of Democrats under 30 are proud to be American, with over half expressing embarrassment about their country.
• Maher cited examples of youth support for Hamas, chants for the Houthis, and the slogan 'Globalize the intifada,' which he described as troubling signs of ideological extremism.
• He urged Democrats to 'reclaim the flag' and teach younger followers that the American flag symbolizes freedom, contrasting it with the keffiyeh and other symbols tied to extremist movements.
• Maher warned that the Democratic Party's alignment with 'weak and woke' ideologies risks alienating mainstream voters and jeopardizing future electoral success.
