You might be aware of the small kerfuffle on Real Time with Bill Maher this week, wherein Jim Jefferies told Piers Morgan to "fuck off."
J.K. Rowling — who not only opposes the Trump EO but has also voiced opposition to Morgan in the past — seems to have enjoyed the moment.
Yes, watching Piers Morgan being told to fuck off on live TV is *exactly* as satisfying as I'd always imagined. https://t.co/4FII8sYmIt
Morgan responded:
And the Twitter war went into full effect.
Rowling brought up an award win in which she beat Morgan:
#StillHurts
And invoked Crabbe for a lesson:
.@piersmorgan If only you'd read Harry Potter, you'd know the downside of sucking up to the biggest bully in school is getting burned alive.
Rowling's fans quickly jumped on board as well, weighing in on the feud.
Man who claims to have never read a word of Harry Potter quotes liberally from Harry Potter book https://t.co/DhSD0bck9q
Morgan even responded to some.
There were some well-placed CNN burns:
Hey girl, are you CNN? Because you just cancelled Piers Morgan. https://t.co/xE0Om8LPbs
While others just used Harry Potter GIFs to express their opinion.

Just another day on Twitter.
