Hopkins explained, "I’m obsessed with numbers. I’m obsessed with detail. I like everything in order. And memorizing. Stella looked it up and she said, ‘You must be Asperger’s.’ I didn’t know what the hell she was talking about. I don’t even believe it.”

Comedian Theo Von is once again addressing the Department of Homeland Security using a video of him to promote ongoing deportations ... vulnerably revealing he was "scared" after DHS published the clip.

Theo speaks about the situation on Friday's "This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von" episode ... telling guest Andrew Santino it was "scary" seeing how much hate he got after the promo video made its rounds. He notes the government shared the clip not long after Charlie Kirk was murdered, and he was therefore "paranoid" ... insinuating he thought his life could potentially be in danger.

ICYMI, the video was created by DHS in late September and starts with Theo making a sarcastic joke about deportation ... and then shows federal agents detaining people. It later touts the numbers of immigrants kicked out of America under President Donald Trump.
