So happy to see Kathy !!!!!

[@evitasdad]

More gutsy than people sitting at home sending her death threats.

[@phillipanderson7398]

I don't send death threats but if I see her I do reach for the tv remote.

[@vx4928]

understanding of all the people to get death threats Kathy Griffin me if you don't like the picture fine whatever but she ain't hurt nobody rape nobody!you got disgusting people in Hollywood like Weinstein and all these other nasty motherfukers going around raping women and molesting kids and shit like that but you want to kill somebody because you don't like a joke that they didn't the magazine when you got people doing real shit like raping or molesting children you're so fucking stupid do a death threat to people who deserve it morons!

[@markcadieux3445]

@Underdog What about people who posted pics of President Obama being lynched? Did you condemn those losers too?

[@solidandsoiled]

So glad I got to know Kathy Griffin from shane's video with her! I agree that the photo was insensitive but the reaction that followed was insane.

[@vasp99]

I love Kathy ! Her balls are the size of watermelons and she stands up for all of us !

[@joelvinson]

She doesn;t stand up for me. I'm not gay.

[@vasp99]

Yes she does moron . Civil rights are for all of us even hateful right wing cowards .

[@joelvinson]

She doesn't stand up for civil rights. SHe's pushing for her rights, and her rights alone. She cares about nothing mroe than to stop the hemmorhaging in her bank account. Can't blame her for that, as it's being a professional victim is quite the lucrative profession these days. Also, I'm not right wing, if you're implying that I am. My feelings weren't hurt to the degree you were attempting, since I was laughing heartily. Apologies. I shall be much more offended next time. Pinky Swear.

[@vasp99]

Why is OK not to be "politically correct" for some folks and not for comedians? Let people like or dislike their acts but respect their First Amendment's right like some do with the Second. Welcome back, Kathy!

Kathy got a bum deal because Trump can't take a joke.

[@Adam-hp2xg]

Are you really that dense? I'm going to take a picture of myself holding up your bloody severed head, hahahahaha what a gag!

[@henrydawkins3128]

Adam S hey moron it was not a real head.

[@edwardbernayse6665]

i don't know. personally i don't care nor was offended by her performance art photo but regular people with no fame or money have gotten visits from the FBI too and have gotten kicked off of facebook for offensive things that they posted about obama. if you are a famous celebrity like her than of course you are going to be interrogated by the FBI and CNN is going to fire you and some of your fans will get pissed off at you. still in wish her luck with her future. i don't think she got a bum deal but instead got the same kind of deal that anybody else would've gotten if they posted something like that up about the president elect. still i'd hate to see anybody get their life ruined over something like that whether it was something they posted about trump or obama.

[@parreyany9423]

[@jellis9618]

The fact that she was investigated at all and the biggest criminal (traitor) in the country is free in Florida is an appalling miscarriage of justice.

[@ruabossy4700]

Good for you, Kathy.

[@0010-r5n]

Pretty cool interview

[@geoffdearth7360]

The photo she put out was distasteful but not worthy of her persecution.

persecution lol

I cant wait to see her at Carnegie Hall !! The only mistake Kathy made is apologizing. Its a free country. At least it was.

I think it's funny how he says, "well we're not going to take that picture" not getting the severity of her concern, now Trump tweets that SNL should be investigated by the courts, that's it's not legal??...Hmm well if anyone is surprised, just remembered Kathy Griffin tried to alert her peers the comedians and the press. Just saying.

[@jdkrasinki2214]

thanks BILL for putting Kathy back on the spotlight and allow her to speak..... you are a great man!

[@Sbannmarie]

JD agreed!

[@Craznar]

One doesn't have to find her funny to defend her right to be a comedian.

[@Craznar]

Comedy is always offensive to at someone, somewhere. That's the nature of the beast. The A, B and C walk into a bar - the C is always a dufus. If she had seriously made claims about Bill's sexual preferences - then that would have been a low blow (no pun intended). However she didn't ... she made a joke, a joke which I found slightly humorous - about a person in power, a person with the ability to respond in kind. Anon - you need to lighten up a bit :)

[@MrMalcolm900]

Here is the problem with your comment, it's not a right to make a threat to the president of the United States. No matter how much you hate them or have this thing for him making a threat is not a right. As I read these comments and all these people are defending her I can't help but understand how are people so ignorant? She made a threat to the president of the United States making a threat to anyone is not a symbol of free speech there are limitations towards every amendment in the Constitution. This should be Civics one on one. Her joke wasn't only tasteless but she promoted violence whether she intended to or not. You might have found it funny but to the unhinged mind it is a threat that should be taken seriously. My question is would you have the same sentiments about Ted Nugent when he made threats to Barack Obama?

[@downshift00]

MrMalcolm900 what was her threat? It was a picture. In order to be a threat, a verbal statement has to be made which she didn't. If you want to see a threat, go check out Ted Nugent make a statement to threaten to kill Obama

[@Craznar]

Here is the problem with your comment ... she didn't.

[@carlossegovia3011]

Being a comedian is not a "right", is a talent that she does not have.

[@willhiggins9563]

I don’t care what Fox News and conservative snowflakes ❄️ say, Kathy Griffin is great. Also, we need more red heads in entertainments. LOL.

[@theparadiddlydoo2771]

Free speech? Oh... in that case Bill can invite Ben Shapiro onto his show then.

[@edwardbernayse6665]

never thought she was funny but i think it's really edgy to have her comedy routines about making fun of hollywood celebrities. not interested in the brand of comedy but still i do think it shows that she isn't going to cow tow and toe any hollywood line.

[@musicsesame]

she may at times be offensive, she has her right to

[@steveb4662]

Mary Rosales" So was Joan Rivers and a number of other comics and it didn't stop them either. It's so good to see her back on U.S. TV!

[@SusanHopkinson]

I agree, although she gets very personal at the expense of friends. I was sorry to see her talk about Maher’s sexuality, which is none of anyone’s business if he’s not talking about it.

[@PeanutsAssorted]

Susan... THAT WAS A JOKE! He's not actually fluid, she had the 3 gay guys joke and Bill, then upped the joke. She didn't talk about his sexuality. Oh my god

[@MOOFLAB]

Mary Rosales that is true and that gives me the right to not like her :)

[@mosesking2923]

She has the right to be offensive....the same way CNN had the right to fire her. Freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences.

[@michaelneel4828]

Truly can say I never cared for her but now i'm going to see her in NY just because she will not be put out to pasture by you REPUBLITURDS !!! I'm Loving It !!!

[@sikelelaowen5493]

Department of justice , Interpol WOW! I didn’t know, that’s mad one bad decision shouldn’t do that to someone’s rights. Also what a waste of peoples taxes when there are real dangers and challenges facing them. Good luck Kathy.

[@ManuelPabloArnao]

We ALL love you, Kathy! Thank you for speaking truth to justice for all of us. We miss you and are happy to have you back ❤️

[@SpiralBreeze]

Absolutely ridiculous what she had to go through. Being treated like a criminal when she did nothing wrong.

[@wendyscott8425]

And Spiral Breeze, I missed her on New Year's Eve. I don't usually watch CNN, but I always found her New Year's Eve bit with Anderson Cooper hilarious, and since we are not big on going out for New Year's Eve, this was a fun tradition of ours for years. I hope they get her back. I didn't watch last Dec. 31/Jan. 1.

[@davidlindsay9564]

Presidental threats are taken seriously. She did it to shock people, well it did. It pissed people off, and she has to deal with the consequences.

[@wendyscott8425]

And yet, David, when "conservatives" _actually_ burned President Obama in effigy, with real fire and everything, how many of them got investigated by the FBI and Homeland Security? How many of them were put on the no-fly list? Kathy Griffin is a woman, of course, so that gives all those "men" the right to persecute her for her stunt. She DID nothing to Mad King Donnie. She made no threats. She's a comedian, and maybe this joke didn't work, but it was still a joke, a mask with ketchup on it. It's amazing to me how "conservatives" get away with almost anything, especially when it came to their persecution of our first black president, and all they can do is whine when the least hint of displeasure over their so-called president is shown by the other side. He acts like a baby, and so do "conservatives" these days. You can dish it out, but you sure can't take it.

[@davidlindsay9564]

...and every president going back 100 years has had the same treatment, usually by bonehead fringe elements. I'm sure they all are investigated. DOJ takes that stuff very seriously. She got put on the no fly list? Good. Make an example out of her. Sends a message. Some nutjob is planning something He will think twice, "Gee if they did that to her? what'll they do to me?" Everything is investigated, especially since JFK. Obama wasn't persecuted at all. He had the media and Hollywood as his own little lapdogs and even SNL went soft on him. Thats why they are after Trump, they have had to be toadies for 8 years. He couldn't handle 1/10th of the attacks the media wages on Trump. Show your kid a picture of his Dad beheaded, see how funny that is. Obama wasn't our first black president. He was mixed race, and when we have a real black president (and it'll be a republican) Obama will be re-classified as such. All Obama's so called "achievements" are being flung into the trash bin. Which is great, because thats what DJT was hired to do. History will prove Obama to be an abyssmal failure, it'll take a while as the media has so much invested in him, but its already starting to happen. When Obama lost you didn't see conservatives crying and wanting safe spaces, we didn't cry for impeachment before he was even sworn in. You liberals are the ones who can't take it. Its fun though. The guy tweets something and its funny watching all of you just lose your minds over every little thing.

[@SR-oc7fc]

It could have been considered a death threat. Actions have consequences, so I have no problem with the fact that she did AND that she was investigated hard. It was her choice to push the envelope.

Caleb Paddack it was a symbolic picture, not a threat. But Trump has lied, committed obstruction, defrauded vets and citizens through his universities, ruined communities around his casinos through not paying contractors and bankruptcy, had affairs, made his name through racist Birtherism and the effects of this bought and paid for President will be felt in the environment for years. Your country is riddled with toxic sites, water pollution, gun deaths and the biggest crime to you is a photo of him beheaded by a tiny women. Marie Antoinette style.

[@sideonsid2885]

[" _what has he done that compares_ " ] As a candidate he referred to "2nd Amendment remedies" as a solution if his opponent were to win . Also have you completely forgotten the violence at his rallies ? I quote - " Trump continued, before saying to loud cheers: “I’d like to *punch him in the face* , I tell ya.”. Sounds like incitement to violence ? And his supporters did assault protesters . In New mexico , a wheelchair bound man was assaulted at his rally. watch this video and you can hear Trump urging on his rabid supporters , ask yourself if Kathy griffin's actions compares ? edition.cnn.com/2017/04/15/politics/donald-trump-rally-lawsuit/index.html

Hear hear!!! Any comments that don't shamelessly kiss his ass sends him into a tantrum. The GOPs don't seem to realize that their patron saint.. Reagan.. would be totally disgusted with his party and would hate this orange buffoon.

[@hymanocohann2698]

Anny The Anon have you ever corrected a spoilt brat in front of it's parent?

[@pjangels609]

So if let's say comedian Dennis Miller did a photo shoot with decapitated head of Bill Clinton or Obama that would be acceptable too, right?

[@jaspertrip7524]

Jesus, I mean... sure I found the picture distasteful, and it should’ve gotten a bit of attention, but this is way over the line. She did not deserve to be treated this way.

[@harveychadbourne5180]

Jasper Trip as Americans we should b outraged. But as usual we r complacent n blind to the truth

[@riverspirit7]

"Jesus"? Come on, you don't believe in Jesus, right?

[@toddtaliaferro7876]

Despite past setbacks, I think Kathy is sincere here. I don't sense any hidden agenda.

[@woodchuck003]

She is sincere in her stupidity. The investigation that happened the here was completely normal. A satirical writer from Cracked got investigate for writing an article about kidnapping Obama's kids. Her and Bill acting like this is new thing that only happened because Trump is mean is complettly false.

[@toddtaliaferro7876]

woodchuck 00 ~ We need to remember that she broke no laws. What she did was certainly in bad taste, but she apologized immediately and sincerely. I understood what she was going for and if the head had been more comical in appearance she might have gotten away with it.

[@smgalia]

Did you not read what he said? This is not new. She just happens to be more famous than the writer at Cracked. Or the Fox News reporter. Or the conservative people Obama had his IRS "keep an eye on." When morons like Maher and Griffin whine about this as if it's a new thing, it's for their own self interest. Stop acting like fucking babies all the time and vote him out. It won't work, but that's the way.

[@VfletchS]

Duh? So magnanimous of you!

[@SpiraResident72017]

Well she kinda blamed the alt right for her treatment while in reality everybody was pissed. It was even somehow like a meme saying that Griffin united the left and right in their hate for her

[@carolinegranados5682]

Love her!!💕💗 I really wish more would support her, she deserves that

[@jbt6007]

Kathy is smart -- she calculated her down fall and will calculate her comeback.

[@camille1068]

Love you, Kathy Griffin, bouncing back from the shaft -- W O W -- Carnegie Hall and The Kennedy Center booked. You were wronged, you deserve these venues, and you WILL come back even bigger!!! Americans want to hear your stories. You deserve to work in your own country. YOU ARE A TRUE PATRIOT!!!

[@stephendise2895]

Camille unk I want pictures of her SUFFERING AND DYING, OK??? FOR HUMOR!!!

[@yesgregyes1416]

Steve Bannon wears the badge of being a racist with pride but Kathy Griffin isn't supposed to go all in on a picture? Gimme a break. Welcome back, Kathy. The fact that you had it all taken from you is embarrassing. Go get it back 10 fold. 100 fold. And laugh all the way to the bank.

[@yesgregyes1416]

Kathy is going for laughs. That is the full extend of her intention. Steve Bannon and his sadistic collaborators at Cambridge Analytica are seeking to undermine the hope Obama tapped into. But you can't put hope back in the bottle. Sorry, bitches. #DataBreach #CambridgeAnalytica #TreasonWeasels

[@yesgregyes1416]

I will keep it up. Thanks for your permission.

[@debsmith2877]

Welcome home KG!

[@Tonimaroni2BeKindToAnimals]

Thank you for having Kathy on❣️

[@WBush-uc9pe]

I believe Kathy Griffin should be able to swing her comedic fist as hard as she wants to, in whatever direction she cares to, unless it results in physical injury. No, being butt-hurt isn't a physical injury, Donald.

[@stevexyz1173]

W. Bush she swings it only one way and with malice...thats why its not funny

[@WBush-uc9pe]

Steve Xyz I believe you should be able to swing your rhetorical fist as hard as you want to, in whatever direction you care to, unless it results in physical injury. No, being butt-hurt isn't a physical injury, Steve.

[@stevexyz1173]

W. Bush carlin, joan rivers, carson, etc..all were political comics and came out swinging...but hate wasnt in their routine..cant say the same for maher, griffin, silverman, kimmel..

[@zombiblitzen3899]

Depicting the decapitation of POTUS is fine but if I depicted the decapitation of Hillary then I'd be sick in the head right?

[@Cyber_Freedom]

Steve Xyz why don't you go do your homework and see how much shit (fat fuck) limbaugh or alex jones says for that matter But that's one sided that you don't get butt hurt over. Meanwhile let's cry because they picked on the moron.

[@sherifox2854]

Bought my tickets to see Kathy Griffin in Calgary, can't wait. Was the photo in poor taste? Yes but it was freedom of speech. How she was treated afterwards was beyond ridiculous. I have always been a fan and I will always support her.

[@fifermcgee5971]

Good for you Sheri, enjoy the show. This was extremely cruel thing to do to a fellow American. Maybe she was a little over the top however, the leader appears to be over the top every week.

[@xenondoro8573]

If it's the same show as in Europe, it's gonna be pretty weird on in all honesty. The celebrity and gay jokes that she is known for are like 20% of the act and the rest goes on and on and on about Trump.

[@saggyt7473]

really ? how much are they?

Sheri Fox Well you announced your idiocy to the world. DOES Kardashian tell you what to think today too?

You both carry on the role that Lenny Bruce and my favorite Mr. George Carlin lived. Comedians that are not just funny. Ones that can slap you in the face with the realty. Thank you both. Down with chump the clown!

[@eriiidelrey6314]

I love her I defended her through out that time of the photo yu gave me will at one point in my life Kathy ❤️❤️❤️

[@kathymac310]

I am not a celebrity. I publically support you and what happened was bullshit. I may not be Seinfeld but it's the best I have

[@Overton_Windows]

I’m not crazy about Kathy Griffin. I’ve never found her to be that funny. But being detained on a regular basis? That’s just scary.

[@rorymurray256]

Ryan Ranger Lenny Bruce suffered real persecution. Arrested multiple times. Had his cabaret license revoked. He wasn't allowed to work. And he was much funnier.

[@AxelSituation]

Exactly!!! and Don Jr goes on tv and says 'we want to decimate her', and NOTHING HAPPENS TO HIM!!! Think about that for a minute.

[@davidlindsay9564]

The Trumps don't own comedy clubs. The public made it clear we don't like what she did and made it known. Let her be made an example of, it was a stupid thing to do. If we just treat it like its no big deal, then someone else will do something worse.

[@Melbourne-s4x]

So much for a free country. For from it, and the fools who fell for Trump's lies.

[@Adam-hp2xg]

What part of this speaks to her not being free? She was free to take the photo, she was free to post the photo, and the companies and individuals she works with were free to react to it. Freedom is a multi-lane highway, friendo

[@Lumby1]

Land of the free and home of the brave? Don't think so. Not without 300 million guns, you're not.

[@praetorxian]

Hillary would have been so much better. She's got a clean slate and a full deck. 🤘

[@Chicago611]

You rock Kathy!!

[@rvsblackfeather]

Thanks Bill Maher and I'm extra excited for Kathy Griffin. Knock'em out the box! You're fantastic!

[@danboyle116]

Here's what I don't get: Did she at any time explicitly or even implicitly violate any laws? I know Trump just might be the most insecure person in the country - or more - but how much of our resource was wasted on harassing her? As is pointed out very early, it's a 1st amendment issue and should have been dismissed at the time. But then, of course, we've got President Hamsterhands ...

[@lukew2194]

She lost some work opportunities because of her own stupidity and now she wants everybody to feel sorry for her and give her money and attention.

[@praetorxian]

Any threat against the POTUS, substantiated or perceived, Republican or Democrat, will launch conjoining investigations by both the DOJ and Secret Service. Period. The victim tears from KG is getting old. If someone had done the same with Obama, same process.

[@firstlast9788]

Lol, Ted Nugent wants to kill Obama and Hilary and gets invited to White house, but Kathy holds a fake head and everyone goes insane. That is the whole point, when republicans do it no one blinks, but when a liberal pulls some shit call the national security. Y'all are stupid.

[@smiller2044]

Yay! Kathy is back.

[@BranDawg81]

This shit didn’t age well, did it?

Looks to me like she should check into a hospital. Yikes! She just keeps looking worse! Does she even eat?!

[@mike0rr]

Like Bill always says, the Left is to soft. Thank you Kathy for not being afraid to play ball and have some fun while doing it.

[@artknight3683]

The left is soft? Seriously? I have to sit and eat my lunch at work watching CNN and it is non-stop, one after another episodes of essentially "Our President is a Sub-Human who should be impeached and drawn and quartered. It is disgusting. If anyone spoke about you or your family like that, you would be enraged.

[@AndersJackson]

+Art Knight, you are for free speach? Are you thinking that no one are allowed to comment on what the POTUS does, and drag shame on USA by being trumpery? Is that what you want? A president that uses the forces of his job to help his daughter sell dresses to companise, by threatning them? Giving his son in law lots of top jobs which he has no time to do, if he even had the experiance to do them? And what about what they, including the current POTUS said about the previous POTUS? What fox news said about the former POTUS?

[@AndersJackson]

+arthur bellington Googlecalendar, That is what ACTUALLY this current right wing POTUS did. Nothing like what you just made up. No,I am not a democrat. Far from that.

[@DominiqueMayfield]

You must get your "facts" from fox news. Trump did say he loved the poorly educated.

[@wendyscott8425]

Art Knight, if anyone in my family acted like Benedict Donald, I would be enraged. BTW, did you get as upset when Fox Noise endlessly spouted anti-Obama propaganda the entire time he was in office? It was disgusting. If anyone had spoken about me or my family like that, I would be enraged. CNN is a corporate-owned entity. Since when did corporations become "the left"?

[@michaelyoung2518]

It’s alright for Trump to make a video of him hitting a golf ball that knock HC off her feet? What kind of bs is this?

[@TheUFOnetwork]

One is a realistic, ISIS-style beheading that encourages murder... the other is an unrealistic, cartoonish clip clearly meant for satire. One is against the President of the United States, the other is against a literal sociopathic criminal (to be arrested soon). One directly affected and traumatized a child, the other did not. One was against someone who has assassination attempts on him every other week (by unstable leftist radicals) the other was not.

[@erik3423]

Oh you mean like when Trump said this? "Hillary wants to abolish, essentially abolish, the Second Amendment. By the way, and if she gets to pick --if she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is, I don't know." -Trump By the way I think the asylum you escaped from would like you back now.

[@davidlindsay9564]

Yeah. And? If the second amendment was threatened you be pro-2A would rise up. duh.

[@wiredreamer7825]

I might not be a fan of Kathy Griffin's "stand-up" (recapping "Real Housewives of Whereverthefuck," as an e.g., is hardly comedy to me) but what happened to her over a silly, ill-advised photo shoot should frighten anyone who loves - or loved - this once-and (hopefully)-future great country of ours. Of course she would rise above this. Her fans are steadfast, furious and legioned - and very few, if any at all, abandoned her. And - during the nine-or-so months since that photoshoot, as each passing minute has proven beyond a scintilla of a doubt that the man who lost the popular vote by millions is a dangerous, albeit laughable, sociopath who has made America the laughingstock of the planet - the time is ripe for her resurrection. Welcome back, Kathy. You have prevailed.

[@rodnelson3492]

Wire I completely disagree with the first part of your statement, but completely agree with everything else. Bravo.

[@wiredreamer7825]

No she didn't. The insane, sociopathic snowflakes on the right went ballistic when a comedienne posed with a fake head of their maniacal, debased sociopathic leader. That is all. The aftermath of such silliness was a low-point in our country's history.

[@Industryworth]

comedy is simply the ability to engage and find common ground. You dont like to find common ground with women thats why

[@artsyfartsy6286]

I love you and support you Kathy!

[@HughJorgan1]

Great to see Kathy coming back. Huge fan of her skills. She'll get massive support where ever she goes. And it's logical for Bill to have huge empathy for her. At 2:43....he's referring to his infamous joke about the 9/11 hijackers. Both are guilty of poor timing and jokes taken too far. But all is forgiven.

[@ticnatz]

Over-simplify much? Europe, in an overall sense, rejects nationalistic vitriol. Sure some fools are buying into the fear mongering, just like a lot of fools in America are. That doesn't make them right, or sensible. When logic is discarded, fear is instilled, and the species comes closer to self-annihilation. We've been down this street many times. One more time might be the end of humanity. Worth the risk, right?
