Warning ... take Donald Trump at his word, says Bill Maher.

The 'Real Time' host bore in on Republicans -- and there are lots of them -- who dismiss alarming Trump messaging as just jokes, or hollow threats.

When Trump messages Due Process is just an obstacle to be maneuvered around or ignored, his supporters and even those in Congress pass it all off as one-liners, Bill says. Or threatening opponents with criminal prosecution just for their beliefs, or saying he'll be a dictator on day 1, or saying he's gonna run for a 3rd term, and on and on ... just silly talk.

Lana Del Rey is kissing and telling ... the singer claimed she smooched Morgan Wallen -- and then threw shade at him -- in her brand new song "57.5", which she debuted at Stagecoach Friday night.

There's no guessing when it comes to the new song's lyrics as she sang ... "I kissed Morgan Wallen / I guess kissing me kind of went to his head / If you want my secret to success / I suggest don’t go ATVing with him when you’re out west."

Thanks for the advice.

Bert Kreischer stuck to his brand -- shirt off, energy on -- and gave a performance that could make the Magic Mike crew sweat!

It all went down -- literally -- in "The Jennifer Hudson Show"’s iconic spirit tunnel, where Bert ripped off his shirt on sight and busted out some filthy moves to a custom remix of Nelly’s “Hot in Herre.”

Scott Peterson should get a new trial proving he could not have committed the murders because of new scientific evidence -- so claims the Los Angeles Innocence Project -- but Nancy Grace says the so-called "scientific evidence" is a load of crap.

Nancy appeared on the new episode of the "2 Angry Men" podcast and addressed a new theory that would have made it impossible for Scott Peterson -- who's serving a life sentence for the murders of Laci and their unborn child, Conner -- to have committed the crime.

The L.A. Innocence Project says based on scientific technology that was not available when Peterson was tried back in 2004, fetal testing puts the date of death somewhere between December 28, 2002 and January 5, 2003.

Pedro Pascal is slamming J.K. Rowling after she backed the UK Supreme Court’s new ruling that trans women shouldn’t be legally recognized as women under Britain’s Equality Act.

The actor’s sister, Lux, is transgender, so you can imagine this hit him hard -- and Pedro didn’t hold back, commenting "awful disgusting S*** ... Heinous LOSER behavior" under a clip of someone discussing the 'Harry Potter' author celebrating the anti-trans ruling.

Jon Cryer's relationship with Charlie Sheen hasn't always been smooth ... but, if he had to choose him or President Donald Trump to have their finger on the nuclear button, he says he's taking President Sheen every time.

Cryer said, "I have been pointing out, and I have been screaming to the rooftops, that Donald Trump is the Charlie Sheen of politics … I have to tell you, I love Charlie Sheen, I loved working with him when he was sober, but he was, he's full of s***. He has been full of s***, he has serious addiction. His addiction is obviously serious, drugs, but Trump is just addicted to feeling important."
