The George floyd riots were actually the same as the night of long knives, where rioters were given permission by the state to burn down the right part of town without fearing the law.
It is well known by those who still hold truth and freedom close to their hearts that Antifa and BLM are nothing but stormtroopers for the left-wing elite.

Also, Cara Dune merch is selling like mad while Sequel trilogy stuff is rotting away on the shelves.

Looks like she'll be on the Babylon Bee Podcast (yes they have a podcast) in the near future.




Probably due to their breaking news coverage on the story...

Gina Carano is apparently going to be collaborating with the Daily Wire's Ben Shapiro on some new film project.


Deadline said:
Carano will develop, produce, and star in the upcoming film, which The Daily Wire says it will release exclusively to its members as the company looks to bolster its entertainment division. Details are being kept under wraps but it will be produced as part of Daily Wire’s partnership with Bone Tomahawk producer Dallas Sonnier and his Bonfire Legend banner.

Also breaking news... The Daily Wire has an Entertainment Division?

Hmm. . .
I had a feeling that her next project would involve Ben Shapiro.
Didn't expect it to happen so soon though.

Yeah, they released a movie call Run, Hide, Fight earlier this year. It actually doesn't suck to my surprise. Definitely a summer action B-movie, but it was more than serviceable and was definitely hurt by being associated with DW.

Huh.


Well if they get moar content then maybe. Not going to subscribe to a service im actually pretty ambivalent on watching in general as Right Wing commentary goes but if they get a bigger media library or so a thick discount perhaps.

Oh lol use the Code 'GINA' to get 25% off. 😁

What Democrats control the Daily Wire?
Ben is a diehard neocon that has begrudgingly adopted enough libertarian positions to remain relevant to the American Right. He does not like any position that makes him unpalatable to professional society and is very clearly happy that he doesn't have to defend Trump anymore. I wouldn't call him controlled opposition or even a RINO, but he is as moderate as one can get and still be a Republican these days. I canceled my subscription over his craven kowtowing surrounding the events this January.

There are other commentators at Daily Wire, but the site revolves around Ben and to a lesser extent Jeremy Boring so everyone more or less mirrors their positions.

Shapiro at least tends to be principled and thoughtful in his positions from what I have seen. He's not much of a populist, but he also doesn't deny right populism nor does he deny that the DC establishment has systemically failed much of the country, unlike most of the true "Establishment". He was a Tea Partier back in that period, and that was really the initial inkling of the rise of right wing populism.

Not from what I've seen. In particular, I'm not a fan of his inability to acknowledge facts that don't match his preconceptions.

He can have some points now and then, but he's also a pretty insufferably smug twat at times. I was likewise unimpressed with how he walked back a lot of his positions on the elections thanks to what happened at the Capitol. I understand he was probably just trying to cover his ass, but at the same time, walking it back like he did wouldn't save him from the people who would be coming after him anyway. And likely they still will - probably he's on AOC's list of undesirables. ;)

Some lady decided to do some actual journalism and interview Gina Carano about the whole affair.


Breaking news, Gina Carano isn't anti-Semitic. Also apparently John Cusack and Ice Cube have posted actual anti Semitic memes and celebs like Chelsea Handler, Jameela Jamil, Jessica Chastain and P Diddy have honored and publicized Loyis Farrakhan on their social media.

The Hollywood Reporter had a decent article today on the Gina Carano controversy.

Specifically they pointed out the various levels of contradiction and inaction Disney responded to when it came to previous controversies.

The Hollywood Reporter said:
On Feb. 10, The Mandalorian’s Gina Carano became the latest member of the Disney fold to do so, joining a list that includes Roseanne Barr, James Gunn, Letitia Wright and Liu Yifei — each drawing varying degrees of action or inaction from the studio. And no studio faces greater scrutiny over its decisions than the family-friendly Hollywood giant.

Of course it's important to note that Roseanne Barr was successfully cancelled for her crude (but apparently ignorant remarks) because the opinions she voiced were targeted against Democrats. James Gunn of course made some bad jokes that Mike Cernovich exposed years after the fact and while temporarily cancelled, returned to Disney to direct Guardians of the Galaxy in the future after outcry from several of the Hollywood elite including fellow cast mates. This of course didn't prevent James Gunn from apparently approving the cancellation and firing of Gina Carano. Letitia Wright left social media after posting an anti-vaccine video but has already been the subject of praiseworthy biographical articles and AFAIK hasn't been cancelled from anything by Disney. This is the same with Liu Yifei, who shared an image on Social Media from a CCP newspaper that endorsed the actions of the Hong Kong police in suppressing the pro-Democracy Protests in Hong Kong in 2019. While she declined to attend several events, she wasn't cancelled by Disney to any degree and never apologized for her behavior.

You could probably add to this other Disney notables such as Pedro Pascal, as well as Film Producer Jack Morrissey who posted a meme stating his desire to see MAGA Kids shoved into a wood chipper among undoubtedly many others.

A Crisis Public Relations Rep also had something interesting to say that is probably common knowledge of course but rarely said or acknowledged by half of the country and certainly not by mainstream press terribly often.

The Hollywood Reporter said:
“I don’t know what people at Disney personally believe or don’t believe with regard to politics, but as a corporate entity, they want to stay as trouble-free as possible. And anything that’s going to offend the left is a problem,” says crisis PR rep Juda Engelmayer. “I have clients who are making an extraordinary effort to post what the social left wants to see.”
