Rob Schneider’s comedy acts are riling up audiences, tackling free speech controversies, and pushing his support for Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s presidential campaign.
Schneider’s Comedy Sparks Audience Backlash
Rob Schneider is no stranger to the wrath of the so-called tolerant left. Known for his anti-vaccine stance and right-wing views, Schneider has faced audience backlash on several occasions. Recently, he faced uproar at a charity event in Canada hosted by the Hospitals of Regina Foundation where his jokes were deemed transphobic and misogynistic. Yes, in Canada, the land of …niceness…, Schneider managed to ruffle feathers so much that his performance was cut short and an apology was issued to the audience.
Schneider’s ability to ‘shock’ might be a badge of honor in his quest for comedy that truly embraces free speech. He argues that speech acceptable to everyone requires no protection, whereas challenging speech does. If hordes of sensitive event attendees can’t handle ‘edgy,’ they might as well stay home wrapped in bubble wrap.
Supporting Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’
DON’T BELIEVE THE DEMOCRAT’S NEWEST LIE! My friend Robert Kennedy Jr.

In addition to his comedy, Schneider is channeling his energy into supporting independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. He has even participated in comedy nights aimed at fundraising for the campaign. Unlike the Democrats who have turned into the “party of forever wars and censorship,” Kennedy seems to be giving voice to issues that the current administration would rather ignore.
“We spent five times more than they do in Europe for health care. And we have way worse results. We can’t have 60% of the American population unhealthy, 54% of children. That needs to be the biggest story for you guys in all mass media. The fact that children have chronic illness at over 50%, that’s a 10-12 year-old statistic. So we have to get people healthy,” Rob Schneider said, echoing comments made by his friend Kennedy.
Taking a stand is never easy, but Schneider has shown time and again that he’s not afraid to go against the grain. His political shift began in 2012 when he protested against a bill that required child vaccination exemptions to have medical approval.
Schneider’s support for Kennedy hasn’t gone unnoticed. In fact, it’s caused quite a stir within the Democratic Party. Perhaps because Kennedy is addressing the issues that matter to Americans—health care costs, homelessness, and public health, instead of focusing on foreign conflicts.
Controversial Fundraisers and Hollywood Blacklisting
At a recent fundraiser for Kennedy, Schneider pulled no punches, making jokes about the pandemic protocols and “wokeness.” For Schneider, the event was a night to remember. Alongside other comedians like Adam Carolla, Jeremy Piven, and Michael Binder, Schneider criticized high taxes in California and Disney’s stance on the transgender movement. The event was held at the Million Dollar Theater in Los Angeles for tickets ranging from $150 to $1,500.
“I’m trying to find a new way to make sure Hollywood never f***ing hires me again for a movie,” Schneider said.
It all goes to show that Rob Schneider isn’t about to shut up, sit down, and conform to Hollywood’s liberal agenda. Instead, he’s ready to take risks and speak on issues so many in Tinseltown fear to utter. As Schneider continues to support Kennedy, the liberals’ anxiety can be felt from coast to coast. With Kennedy addressing the issues that matter, it’s no wonder the Democrats are worried
