ABC = ALWAYS BE CAVING
HBO

Bill Maher is the latest talk show host coming to Jimmy Kimmel's defense amid his show's suspension -- despite not fully agreeing with his remarks that led to ABC benching the broadcast.

Check out his speech on HBO’s "Real Time" Friday night -- Bill rallied behind his "compatriot" Jimmy, later adding ... "I am with you, I support you."

BM also brought up his own firing from ABC 24 years ago, telling Jimmy ... "If this firing goes for you the way it did for me, you’ll get 23 years on a better network." He took another swipe at ABC, calling it the "Always Be Caving" network.

Plenty of the biggest names in Hollywood have graced the stage of "Watch What Happens Live" -- and we wanna know if you can guess who this glammed-up rapper is!

Luigi Mangione The Feds Are Trying to Put Me To Death Unconstitutionally!!!

Published | Updated

Luigi Mangione's attorneys are taking a big crap on the federal death penalty case against their client in connection with the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson -- and they're asking a judge to completely throw out the indictment!

In new court documents, obtained by TMZ, Luigi's legal team, Karen Friedman Agnifilo, Marc Agnifilo and Jacob Kaplan, claim that Luigi's rights have been "intentionally and serially violated" by the NYPD, federal government and other public officials in order to secure the possibility of the death penalty for him ... and due to these violations, the "unconstitutional" indictment needs to be struck down.

They list numerous examples as to how Luigi -- accused of shooting UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson to death in December 2024 -- has been wronged, starting with the NYPD's alleged leaking of information pertaining to the investigation, including a handwritten manifesto found on his body when he was taken into custody.

We know he might be off the air for a little while ... but we still wanna see if you can guess who this late-night TV show host is!

We ran into this guy and his wife way back in 2017, when we caught him greeting a couple of fans while leaving a restaurant in L.A., and he was pretty popular -- back then, at least. You may also recognize a prolific celeb picture-collector known on the Hollywood streets ...

The thing is, the host in question here got pulled off the air earlier this month after making some comments about the circumstances surrounding a certain right-wing commentator ... so who knows when he's coming back?!
