Former Fox News personality Pete Hegseth was appointed as Donald Trump’s Secretary of Defense on Friday, following a tightly contested vote in the Senate that required Vice President JD Vance to cast the deciding ballot. This narrow outcome was influenced by the defection of three Republican senators, who sided with Democrats largely due to concerns regarding Hegseth’s past issues with alcohol as well as allegations of abusive and inappropriate behavior, which he continues to deny.
During a recent episode of “Real Time,” Bill Maher took the opportunity to poke fun at Hegseth while engaging in a comedic segment titled “Things You Don’t Know About….” This segment involves Maher sharing a list of humorous and exaggerated ‘facts’ about notable individuals, highlighting their more problematic aspects. For this episode, Maher presented “24 things you don’t know about Pete Hegseth.”
As the skit unfolded, Maher humorously fabricated quotes attributed to Hegseth, starting with, “When Trump first asked me to be Secretary of Defense, I said, ‘Secretary, I ain’t no woman.’”
Continuing with tongue-in-cheek remarks, Maher claimed, “I don’t know the meaning of surrender or last call.”
On a whimsical note, he quipped, “I got the idea for Concerned Veterans for America from veterans saying, ‘we’re concerned about your drinking.’”
In another joke, Maher referenced multiple allegations of Hegseth’s infidelity, stating, “My favorite sex position is where my wife lies face down and I’m 10 miles away [with] a cocktail waitress.”
Further adding to the absurdity, Maher joked, “My ancestors are Norwegian, which is why you often find me sleeping outside with the dog.”
He then humorously shared, “I hold the Guinness record for a number of times being told by a bouncer, ‘please don’t touch the dancers.’”
Adding a bizarre twist, Maher remarked, “I think Amelia Earhart is proof women can’t drive.”
To cap off the comedic act, Maher playfully stated, “My drag name is Miss Ogynist,” and concluded with, “And I have a tattoo on my penis that reads, ‘you must be this tall to ride.’”
