He doesn't identify as Jewish. Here he is with Martin Short ruminating on why people think he's Jewish but he's not. Then he makes some borderline antisemitic "jokes", bc of course he does. He's Bill Maher. Starts around 3:40.https://youtu.be/6fdztHeqwgU
Until his early teens, he was unaware that his mother, whose family was from Hungary,[10] was Jewish. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Maher
