“Real Time” host Bill Maher closed his show Friday night by slamming “Snitch Nation,” which he claims has taken America by storm.
Maher began the monologue by calling out the Texas judiciary law that allows citizens to sue anyone who aides a pregnancy termination beyond six weeks into the pregnancy and be rewarded at least $10,000, saying “no cash prizes for snitching.”
“Jesus, when did West Texas become East Germany?” Maher asked. “Even if you hate sluts and love money, you have to admit bounty hunting people who help pregnant women is pretty un-American. Also, you’re working too hard, Texas! This is 2021. You don’t have to pay people to snitch. America is Snitch Nation now, they’ll happily do it for free.”
“This is 2021. You don’t have to pay people to snitch. America is Snitch Nation now, they’ll happily do it for free.”

The HBO star lamented how snitching is no longer “a bad thing” and how children were once taught “Nobody likes a tattletale” but now “virtually every public accomplishment comes with the obligatory follow-up snitch story a few days later.”

“You’re a loser with WiFi and all the time in the world to listen to long-forgotten podcasts. You’re not a journalist, you’re just a creepy little rat. Go to Texas and catch a runaway embryo. … You know, I don’t want to live in Snitchlandia where you can’t trust your neighbors and you’re always looking over your shoulder, a land of Karens and Gladys Kravitzes, ruled by citizen informants where Republicans sue you for your sex life and Democrats get you fired fora Halloween costume. And then we all go home and applaud ourselves for our courage,” Maher added.
