Still, Maher called today’s ceremony “an event so unimportant, even the Russians aren’t fixing it.”

He also touched on yesterday’s shooting at a high school in Santa Fe, Texas; Donald Trump’s latest Twitter tantrums, which revolve around China and the FBI, among other things; and the partial defunding of Planned Parenthood. Watch the full segment below.
