Whitney Cummings talks about her roasting of CNN and the Democrats on New Years Eve:

"If you love your party, you have to be able to criticize it. I don't really take sides ... I always thought of myself as a pretty liberal person. I don't think the Left is as liberal as it used to be. The Left became the party of censorship. 'My body, my choice,' but you have to take this vaccine. And, 'my body, my choice,' the pro-choice party, but you don't have a choice in your candidate," she said, repeating a line from her CNN roast.

"I'm not an expert on politics ... but I am an expert on hypocrisy. I was raised by hypocrites. I've dated hypocrites. I know hypocrisy when I see it," she said about her CNN segment. "So for me, I didn't think I was being political. I was just pointing out hypocrisies across the board."

Why not roast Donald Trump during her CNN appearance? That would be "hacky."

"That's home-court advantage," she cracked about CNN's liberal bias. "There's nothing risky or dangerous about that. It bothers me when comics say stuff that's self-righteous and they get applause when they're being fake-brave," she added. "If I was gonna roast Trump, I'd have to do that on Fox News."

"And I already roasted Trump," she said, alluding to the 2011 Trump roast on Comedy Central.

Pointless useless comic Jim Gaffigan -- who conservatives formerly embraced, because of his general refusal to use profanity or "blue" material in his act, despite never having been funny -- admits that comedians were instructed to not make any jokes about the Cackling Imbecile Kamala Harris.

I'm not sure that Whitney Cummings was ever really an enemy here. As I mentioned previously, I saw her on a couple of those mostly-male-audience podcasts, one was maybe Chris Williamson, and she was generally taking positions which the leftwing propaganda media would call "far right." Stuff like being in favor of freedom of speech and thinking it wasn't good for society to constantly demonize men. Not a conservative or anything, but not one of the people you'd say were deranged like Alec Baldwin or Sonny Hostin.

My general assumption is that anyone in entertainment who says they're "libertarian" or "criticize both sides" or who "don't have party" are really saying "I lean right, but I don't want to be canceled, so I'm going to be super-vague here if you don't mind."
