Mindy Kaling opens up about weight loss, ‘I truly feel so healthy now Mindy Kaling is speaking openly about her changing relationship with weight, health, and the public attention that has followed her physical transformation over the years.

'Anti-common-sense': Bill Maher lashes out at Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton for dodging his show Bill Maher recently criticized prominent Democrats, including Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton, for allegedly refusing to appear on his show, preferring instead to engage only with audiences that already support them.

He claimed Democrats are hesitant to face environments where they aren’t guaranteed admiration, contrasting this with past leaders like George W. Bush and Barack Obama, whom he described as pragmatic. According to Maher, t...
