This was strange on Bill Maher

He was talking about the three intelligence officers that testified and that Whiny Donny tried to negate and Maher listed them:

Gina Haspel, Dan Coats and...McCabe, also included the photos of all. And none of his guests corrected him: You mean Christopher Wray..

A bit sloppy, perhaps. Many people misspeak when talking extemporaneously. Even great speakers, like Presidents Obama or Clinton make mistakes from time to time. Trump, of course, is in a class of his own.

Still, it doesn't obviate the points that Maher was making about Trump and the Intelligence Community.
