<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bill Maher says “woke” Hollywood may nominate him for awards, but insists they’ll never actually give him one because he doesn’t play by their rules.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The 69-year-old comedian <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&amp;v=xMwFeeKvwno&amp;embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fnews.dailywire.com%2F&amp;source_ve_path=MjM4NTE">said</a> as much during an episode of “Club Random” that was filmed before the Golden Globes on Sunday. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I’ve been nominated for 33 Emmys, and they would never give it to me,” Maher told his guest, Joel Edgerton. “That’s not a gag number. That’s a real number. It’s crazy.” He went on to list all the things he’s been nominated for in various categories. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Obviously, it’s something I said. Well, it’s everything I said,” he joked. “Because I speak freely. And this woke town f*cking hates that. And that’s okay. I’ve made my peace with that.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If by “some miracle,” he received an award, he said, “I really should be shocked.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Maher was nominated on Sunday for Best Performance in Stand-Up Comedy on Television. He lost to fellow Hollywood outcast Ricky Gervais.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Gervais, who is well known for his iconic no-hold-barred, celebrity roasting monologue at the 2020 Golden Globes ceremony, won a coveted statuette Sunday night for his Netflix special, “Morality.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The 64-year-old comedian was not in the audience to accept his award, but later posted about it on X, writing, “I f*cking won. Again.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The moment of Gervais’ triumph was <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/wanda-sykes-hijacks-golden-globe-win-by-ricky-gervais-makes-it-about-trans-community?author=Amanda+Harding&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Wanda+Sykes+Hijacks+Golden+Globe+Win+By+Ricky+Gervais%2C+Makes+it+About+%E2%80%98Trans+Community%E2%80%99">hijacked</a> by Golden Globes presenter Wanda Sykes, who used Gervais’ absence to mock him. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“There’s some people pissed off that a queer black woman is up here doing the job of two mediocre white guys,” Sykes said while presenting the award, “But first I want to give them some love.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She also referenced Maher, saying, “You give us so much. But I would love a little less. Just try less.” The camera panned to Maher, who appeared perplexed and was not smiling.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Ricky Gervais, I love you for not being here,” Sykes said while still listing nominees. “No, I love you. But if you win, I get to accept the award on your behalf, and you are going to thank God and the trans community. Oooh, Ricky!”</span></p>
