<\/p>\n
Bill Maher<\/strong> did not hold back Friday night, calling comedian Hasan Minhaj<\/strong> a shady liar.<\/p>\n The ‘Real Time’ host ended his show worrying that the concept of truth has become relative, and Exhibit A is Donald Trump<\/strong>, making wild claims and then simply declaring them to be true.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n He then broadens out and says both sides — the left and right — are guilty as charged. As Maher puts it, the right pushes conspiracy theories and the left embraces “emotional truth.”<\/p>\n BM then takes aim at Minhaj, and there’s more beef here than in any happy meal. Minhaj accused Maher of saying Muslims should be rounded up and incarcerated — something Bill has never said.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Maher then references a New Yorker<\/strong> story, which calls Minhaj out for making up stories<\/strong> for his act. Specifically, Minhaj says he asked a girl to the prom and at the last minute her parents said she couldn’t go because he was a person of color. False, says the New Yorker.<\/p>\n And then there’s the story of the FBI hunting Minhaj down and throwing him against a car because they thought he was a terrorist. Again, false, says the mag.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Minhaj told the New Yorker, emotional truth is first — factual truth is secondary. Not so, says Maher … not at all.<\/p>\n There’s a lot more here … check out the vid.<\/p>\n
