Kathy Griffin Is Done Holding Back “This President Is Different”
"I've been through the mill, so I'm back on the road", before boasting that she sold the tickets for her Carnegie Hall show in less than 24 hours.
"Look, I'm not holding back on this family", said the 57-year-old comic.
When asked why Kathy was taking such a stand, she said that she was fighting for her First Amendment rights, which was also her reasoning for the photo shoot to begin with.
Griffin responded with a "F**k you".
Her mistake, she now realizes, was in not knowing she was "part of the Trump wood chipper".

Kanye West 'attacked for presenting new ideas'
All of this comes after the release of a video in which West professes his love for Donald Trump and says he's "inspiring". Kanye West admitted to getting liposuction in 2016 during an appearance on TMZ Live Tuesday.
In May of 2017, comedian Kathy Griffin stirred up controversy when she memorably posted a photo posing with a bloody replica of Donald Trump's head.
"How do you sleep at night?" she asked him.
Apparently, Griffin has taken another 180-degree turn, and she seems to have been emboldened by Michelle Wolf's no-holds barred appearance at the White House Correspondents Dinner over the weekend.
After being criticized by everyone from Trump himself to former first daughter Chelsea Clinton, Griffin issued a tearful apology on video and even held a press conference to do damage control after she was sacked from her New Year's Eve gig on CNN (even her former NYE co-host, Anderson Cooper, said he was "appalled" by the "completely inappropriate" photo). A month later, Griffin found a new resolve and declared that she wasn't afraid of Trump and the villain spin media outlets had put on her. The only reason she chose to apologize was because she thought it would be offensive to people like the family of Daniel Pearl, who was a writer for Wall Street Journal that murdered by terrorists back in 2002. "Of course with my connection with the military I thought of literally Daniel Pearl's mother and so I thought, ok, obviously not very many people literally witnessed that horrendous event, but when I thought of her I thought, ok, apologize". "I had to spend two hours convincing my mom I hadn't been recruited by Al-Qaeda - my mom got death threats in her retirement village, and my sister got death threats in her hospital bed, and I lost her to cancer - that's why I shaved my head".
'I sincerely apologize. I am just now seeing the reaction of these images. The images are too disturbing, I understand how it offends people. "I performed in Iraq and Afghanistan, two places Trump has never been and can't find on a map", she said. Me and Spicey are in the back. She then punctuated her statement with an expletive directed at Trump. "Eight years", she says, sharing the length of time she was told to fly under the radar by crisis managers.
