Go Birds, Fuck ICE, and Free Palestine: Hannah Einbinder's Bold Emmy Moment

 



Hannah Einbinder, the Emmy-winning writer and star of the HBO series Hacks, made a bold statement in her 2025 Emmy acceptance speech by saying "Go Birds, fuck ICE, and free Palestine", advocating for Palestinian freedom. As a Jewish artist, her criticism of Israeli policies drew significant attention.

The post from the CensoredHumans account highlights claims of censorship against pro-Palestine stances in Hollywood. It suggests Einbinder has faced exclusion or backlash in subsequent award shows following her speech, fueling discussions about industry blacklisting.

The speech quickly went viral, combining a shoutout to her favorite NFL team (the Philadelphia Eagles — "Go Birds"), criticism of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and solidarity with Palestine. Reactions were sharply divided: some praised her courage and political activism, while others criticized it as inflammatory, one-sided, or inappropriate for an awards show, with calls for boycotts and responses from figures like the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.


This moment occurred at the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards in September 2025, where Einbinder won her first Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series. The profanity was bleeped during the live broadcast, but unedited clips spread widely online.
