For years we've been told by secretive power hoarders we need to compromise some of our hot freedom for security. Civil Libertarians have always known that hogwash claim was stinkier than week old trout jam, and we have warned about compromising liberty in the name of safety.

Easy spying is supposed to nab bad guys, but what happens when the small cabal of desperate men who head the security state see the future president as the bad guy?

Here is a piece of advice: If you want to strengthen your views, challenge them.

Implying women are too weak to take a joke is *implicitlty* sexist, and ridiculous.

Washington is nothing if not an orchard of absurdities, and poking fun at power brokers is neither sex blind nor for the faint of heart.

I have nothing wrong with comics and writers poking fun at the President, as long as it's funny. When it's the same retread jokes with predictable punchlines, that's when it's offensive.

Buttigieg was a naval reservist who served as a lieutenant in Afghanistan, so he has seen first hand how American foreign policy has veered wildy off her once-well-rooted tracks.

It must be hard being Jim Carrey. His precipitous fall from comedic grace has climaxed in a sad thud as the once brilliant rubber-faced comic has transformed into an unfunny, thick human hemorrhoid.

Socialism is antithetical to freedom, because when it breeds and thrives, people die.

The promise of socialism is a lie.

Beto is not a transformational political saviour. He is a hypocritical hack who's so lightweight he goes where the wind blows even if it tumbles him and the economy to irreversible hell.

Work always triumphs over dependency, as anyone who is engaging in the economy can attest.

Wealth creation and job growth are nothing to be ashamed of, and the expression of economic creativity is a beautiful manifestation of freedom.

God bless America!

Beto O'Rourke speaks in annoyingly pert platitudes like some mediocre yoga instructor who promises to 'build a movement.'

Beto is banking on his sacharrine positivity as the ultimate antidote to President Trump's honest saltiness.

Oh my garden, I hope Cory Booker runs for president, just to watch him lose.

Do you know who pays for socialized medicine? You do. And do you know what people do when they think it's abundantly free? They loot.

Everyone wants to be liked. It's a basic human impulse for some of you, and that explains the turn-on-a-dime hypocrisy from people like Jim Carrey and Sean Penn.

What's cooler than pretending you hate money and giving away someone else's stuff under the guise of 'fairness?' You know what's cooler than that? Having the ability to make your own money, your own damn choices and not being subjected to mob theft that steals opportunity right out from under you.

If money weren't cool, pseudo-socialists like Bill Maher and Chelsea Handler would tell jokes for free in soup kitchens.

Heavy handedness and entitlement goody bags are no way to solve our immigration and border crisis, but I've learned to expect almost nothing from the dimwits in power who feel entitled to take everything.

If you leave government life for greener private sector pastures, why on earth do you still need to peep into the nether reaches of national secrets unless you're either addicted to preserving that special power or you plan on making sweet cash off your top secret stash?

There really shouldn't be public schools, should there?

If you think about the kind of people you want to have in this country, you want people who are hardworking, people who are ethical, people who look out for their families and their communities and people who are very physically strong.

There's a difference between John Bolton and Mike Pompeo.

It's really great when you can admonish a lawmaker, but at the same time, get them to talk about the process of making government more transparent, then that's great.

I talk to a lot of Democrats.

Like sexual harassment in the workplace and two-martini lunches, VJs are the stuff of legend whose time and train have passed, but I was fortunate enough to sneak into the express and ride it through the greatest age.

What people consider my worst interviews were kind of the best, as well, in a way, because they were so surreal, like J Mascis.

We don't want to raise sheltered children. They should see different parts of the country, and they should experience things.

I made myself a promise that every time I turned on the microphone, no matter what it was, I was going to say something of value.

I'm consistently pro-freedom. No matter where I go, whether it's Fox or when I'm walking around the block or going to the dog park, I will agree with people on pretty much half of everything. Freedom is something I believe in across the board, and I will fight for that.

Here's what set MTV apart from places like ABC News and other bastions of liberal news dissemination: we had a prime demographic, a twenty-four-hour cycle, and an aura that simply could not be manufactured, bought, or faked by the major networks.

I didn't like Jenny McCarthy when I first met her.

I had such a warped self-image. And I really think America thought I was an eccentric loudmouth. I thought I was demure.

In the beginning MTV was totally cool. Later on, there was more specific wording as to what I was allowed to do in public and the press.

I come from a very long line of very superstitious Romanian women who hold on to their chastity probably way too long.

When I say I'm going gangster, I'm working really hard at something.

Too many people have already lost their lives to HIV and AIDS, and the more celebrities who can bring attention to the issue, the better.

People with HIV and AIDS are nothing to be afraid of. They are people just like every single one of us, and each has a story to tell. These people should be helped, embraced, and not dismissed. We need to open our hearts and our minds to them, and we just may learn we're pretty much all the same.

I know Bea Arthur left the Pam Anderson roast really early, but it could have been because she was half dead; I don't know.

I'm a take-no-prisoners type of comic, and I'm lucky because my fans get me and never have a problem with the politically incorrect themes of my act. But I am continually amazed by how a certain section of our society seems to be so freakin' sensitive about jokes.

Andy Dick is so gay, he thinks Margaret Cho is funny.

I hate comics who look at comedy as therapy. But at least it gets things out of my system in a funny way.

I always order soup, dessert, and a sandwich or whatever main course. But then the idea is you have to eat such a small portion of it and bring the rest home.

I do a big roast of Trump during my set now - which I clearly expanded on - because there's so much to make fun of him about now.

Make a list of the people in your 'choir'... If you're not on your own list, then you're doing something wrong.

I remember, after the Pamela Anderson roast, being told, 'You're sold out - you can add two more shows.'

Nobody escapes during Lisa Lampanelli's show.
