Disney fired Gina Carano from "The Mandalorian" for the "sin of not bowing to the Woke Left"


Disney fired Gina Carano from "The Mandalorian" for the sin of not bowing to the Woke Left 

"Disney wants you to know they stand for diVeRsiTy and iNcLuSioN.  

"Unless you disagree with any point of Wokeism for any period of time, that is. 

"Gina Carano – pro MMA fighter and actress on the hit Star Wars show, The Mandalorian  was fired by Disney on Wednesday over an Instagram post they said was "abhorrent and unacceptable."

"If you're not familiar with Gina or her character "Cara Dune," here's a summary:"


"See her post and tell us if there is antisemitism in it: 

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the star actress, who is a well-known conservative, on the Disney+ show was fired “after sharing a post on social media implying that being a Republican today is like being Jewish during the Holocaust.”



 Yahoo News . . . "Carano — whose agency has also parted ways with the actress — has yet to comment on her firing, which was spurred by a since-deleted Instagram post that likened being a modern-day conservative to the experience of Jews during the Holocaust in Nazi Germany. But her cause has been taken up by right-wing figures like Ted Cruz who are eager to portray her as another victim of cancel culture. Some have also noted that Carano’s co-star Pedro Pascal drew allusions between Trump supporters and Nazis and Confederate soldiers in a since-deleted Instagram post in November, but hasn’t faced the same repercussions." . . .

"The world IS open but no one is allowed to work. Working is a right you, as an American have. It gives us purpose, focus, pride and most importantly a way to support the ones we love. People are dropping like flies from depression and suicide, overdoses, MURDER. Enough already." Then we have this one: "Open up your businesses & churches. Put whatever regulations you want to because that is your right but open them up. You’re telling me Covid-19 knows the difference between a protest or praise & worship. I haven’t even been to church in over a decade but I sure would go now."

Kamala Harris Joked About Killing Trump, Pence

Newsmax  "Vice President Kamala Harris once joked on national television about killing former President Donald Trump and former Vice President Mike Pence.

"In a Twitter post Wednesday, political activist Jack Posobiec shared a video of Harris on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" in early 2018.

"The then-senator from California was asked a question that served as the setup for a kind of cage-match quip: If she had to be stuck in an elevator with Trump, Pence, or former U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions, which one would she pick?

" 'Does one of us have to come out alive?" Harris responded.

"Harris laughed loudly as the show's crowd applauded enthusiastically.

"Posobiec's tweet came with former President Donald Trump under scrutiny for inciting violent behavior by supporters. Wednesday was the second day in a Senate trial for Trump, who was impeached by the House and has been accused of encouraging protesters to join a violent siege on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. Five deaths have been linked to the siege, including one Capitol Police officer." . . .

Biden’s appeasement of Iran begins

 Power Line Blog "Joe Biden is determined to appease Iran, and the appeasement has already commenced. Its public manifestation centers now on Yemen, and the Houthi rebels there.

"The Houthis have long received considerable Iranian financial and military support, including in recent years cruise missiles and drones. They have used Iranian weaponry not just against the government of Yemen, but also against Saudi Arabia and the UAE, Iran’s arch enemies and allies of the U.S.

"Thus, as John Bolton says, the Houthis are a threat to the oil-producing Gulf monarchies. As is Iran, of course." . . .

Biden to De-list Houthi Rebels as Terrorists  . . . "The move is Biden’s latest slap to U.S. allies in the region — and an apparent attempt to appease Iran, which the Biden administration hopes to entice back to the negotiating table.

"Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) accused Biden of appeasement in a statement Saturday: . . ."

A brain-eating toxin has invaded the Capitol.

Establishment Media Express Collective Outrage over Democrats’ Impeachment Video . . . Impeachment manager Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), who previously objected to results from Donald Trump’s 2016 victory, showed a dramatic video that spliced together Trump’s statements with protesters who attacked the Capitol.

"The video, for example, edited out Trump’s remark to his supporters to “peacefully make their voices heard.”

"Nevertheless, journalists sounded off: . . .

One person escapes the brain-eaters at the Senate impeachment trial spectacle

Only one answer suffices.  A brain-eating toxin has invaded the Capitol.

. . . "And only one person escaped its ravages: Chief Justice John Roberts.

"John Roberts, maligned and belittled for his squishy jurisprudence, this time was the only person who actually read the U.S. Constitution and abided by its words.  Only Roberts had the common sense to socially distance himself from the bonfire of insanity.

"And those 44 senators who by their presence sanctioned a "vote" to quash a proceeding that would examine the existence of Donald Trump as a witch should have instead escaped with John Roberts to enjoy a cigar, and a splash of bourbon, along with a game of billiards, or a bowling tournament."

France expresses alarm about America’s drift into left-wing radicalism

"When the French think you're tilting left, you're about to capsize."  Daniel F. Melton

Liberty Unyielding  "America has moved to the left so rapidly that Europeans are now expressing alarm about it. As journalist Glenn Greenwald notes, “Obama-endorsed French President Emmanuel Macron has joined numerous French intellectuals & journalists in warning that ‘out-of-control woke leftism of US campuses and its attendant cancel culture’ poses a grave threat due to the social strife it creates.”

"Greenwald links to a New York Times article that asks, “Will American ideas tear France apart? Some think so. Politicians and prominent intellectuals say” that left-wing “social theories from the United States on race, gender, and post-colonialism are a threat” to French unity and stability:

"French politicians, high-profile intellectuals and journalists are warning that progressive American ideas — specifically on race, gender, post-colonialism — are undermining their society. “There’s a battle to wage against an intellectual matrix from American universities,’’ warned Mr. Macron’s education minister.

"Emboldened by these comments, prominent intellectuals have banded together against what they regard as contamination by the out-of-control woke leftism of American campuses and its attendant cancel culture…..
