IIn this clip, Bill Maher and Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan dive into one of the most urgent issues of our time: political violence in America. In this raw conversation, Bill reacts to the news of Charlie Kirk being shot, why violence can never be an acceptable tool in politics, and how both the left and right need to confront their roles in fueling division. From Sarajevo to sectarian conflict, they explore the dangers of ignoring history—and why free speech must remain the foundation of democracy.
