Accepting her first career Emmy win<\/a> in the supporting actress comedy category, “Hacks” star Hannah Einbinder<\/a> concluded her speech with a few parting words.<\/p>\n The 30-year-old Los Angeles native cheered the Philadelphia Eagles (who won their football game against the Kansas City Chiefs earlier in the day), <\/strong>before calling out immigration raids by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and supporting the pro-Palestinian movement.<\/p>\n “Go birds, (expletive) ICE and free Palestine,” she yelled at the Peacock Theater on Sunday, Sept. 14.<\/p>\n Einbinder’s speech went over the recommended 45-second limit, causing host Nate Bargatze’s<\/a> $100,000 donation to the Boys & Girls Clubs of America<\/a> to drop by a few thousand dollars. However, she assured during her speech that she would pay the difference.<\/p>\n Hannah Einbinder accepts the Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series award for “Hacks” onstage during the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards in Los Angeles on Sept. 14, 2025.<\/p>\n At the start of the ceremony, Bargatze said it was his idea to incentivize winners to keep their speeches short with his donation idea.<\/p>\n “Every second you go over, we take away $1,000 from the Boys & Girls Club,” Bargartze previously told USA TODAY<\/a> in an interview<\/a>. “I’m not taking it away. It’s you, if you want to thank your agent and your fifth agent and all this kind of stuff.”<\/p>\n 1<\/span> of 23<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n “The Studio” set a record for most wins for a comedy series; Seth Rogen won for lead actor and directing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Einbinder has been nominated four different times for her role as comedy writer Ava Daniels.
