If Disney Fired Gina Carano, It Should Fire Pedro Pascal

Gina Carano Fired by Disney After Holocaust Tweet While ‘Mandalorian’ Co-Star Pedro Pascal, Who Compared US Migrant Facility to Nazi Concentration Camp, Not Fired (breitbart.com)  "The Walt Disney Co. dropped actress and MMA star Gina Carano from its hit Disney+ series The Mandalorian on Thursday, caving to a cancel campaign after the actress compared the current political climate to Nazi Germany on social media. But in what appears to be a corporate double standard, her co-star Pedro Pascal has also conflated current politics with Nazi Germany and remains employed by the studio.

" 'The difference is that while Carano compared current Democratic policies to the Nazis, Pascal likened the Trump administration to Germany’s Third Reich.

" 'In a 2018 tweet, actor Pedro Pascal attempted to smear the Trump administration by comparing the detention of migrant children at the border to Nazi concentration camps. Pascal used the hashtag #ThisIsAmerica while juxtaposing photographs of a Nazi concentration camp dated 1944 and what appears to be a photo of migrant youths in a border facility." . . .

 "Pedro Pascal didn’t mention in his tweet the fact that the Obama-Biden administration built many of the fences, often referred to as “cages,” at U.S. border facilities that were used to detain adults and separate them from children apprehended at the U.S.-Mexico border.

"While Gina Carano has espoused libertarian and right-leaning views on social media, Pascal has promoted his progressive ideology and left-wing politics on Twitter.

"On President Trump’s last day in office, Pascal tweeted “BYE.” When Twitter banned the president earlier last month, the actor expressed his joy." . . .

EPIC! Trump's Defense Team ABSOLUTELY RUINS Democrats With 13 Minute Montage of "Fight" Word Like Trump Did!

 

http://www.terrellaftermath.com/

EPIC! Trump's Defense Team ABSOLUTELY RUINS Democrats With 13 Minute Montage of "Fight" Word Like Trump Did!   The Democrats demonized President Trump for using the word ‘fight’.  Trump’s attorneys responded today with a collage of clips from each of the Democrats in the room using the word ‘fight’.

"This portion of today’s events on Capitol Hill was excellent.  The Democrats claim that because President Trump used the word ‘fight’ in his speech on January 6th in Washington D.C.  However, what every Democrat in that room forgot was that they too had used the word previously in political speech." . . .

Former President Trump’s lawyers on Friday presented a montage showing Trump’s high profile critics promoting and condoning violence, featuring President Joe Biden, Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA), Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), and more.

“ 'Contrast the president’s repeated condemnations of violence with the rhetoric from his opponents,” Trump’s counsel said as the montage began to play, featuring former President Trump reiterating his position as the “president of law and order and an ally of all peaceful protesters.”

Democrats FightFightFight!

The public has had enough of cancel culture and cultural Marxism, and it’s fighting back.

Disney officially cut ties with Carano over an image the actress posted to her Instagram depicting a Jewish woman running from Nazi guards with the caption: . . . “Because history is edited, most people today don’t realize that to get to the point where Nazi soldiers could easily round up thousands of Jews, the government first made their own neighbors hate them simply for being Jews. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views?”

Gina Carano To Produce And Star In Upcoming Film For The Daily Wire | The Daily Wire

"Actress Gina Carano is partnering with The Daily Wire to produce and star in an upcoming film exclusively for Daily Wire members.

"Carano and The Daily Wire announced the new partnership on Friday, two days after the actress was ousted from her role in the Disney Star Wars spinoff show “The Mandalorian.” Disney cut the actress on Wednesday in what critics alleged was a politically-motivated hit.

“ 'The Daily Wire is helping make one of my dreams — to develop and produce my own film — come true. I cried out and my prayer was answered,” Carano said in a statement Friday. “I am sending out a direct message of hope to everyone living in fear of cancellation by the totalitarian mob. I have only just begun using my voice which is now freer than ever before, and I hope it inspires others to do the same. They can’t cancel us if we don’t let them.' ” . . .

The persecution of Gina Carano - spiked (spiked-online.com)  "Her sacking perfectly illustrates the hypocrisy and intolerance of the woke elites."

. . . "Schwarzenegger’s Holocaust Relativism was arguably more egregious than Carano’s. Hers was at least a little vague. He marshalled a specific event, one of the darkest in human history, and used it to make a showy, viral political point in the here and now. And yet he became the man of the hour while Carano is a witch who must be burned." . . .

Gina Carano’s Mandalorian Firing a New Hollywood Blacklist (nymag.com)  . . . "Trumbo gained some martyrdom when he was hauled to Washington to testify in front of the House Un-American Activities Committee. “This is the beginning of the American concentration camp,” he warned. (Fortunately for Trumbo, his antagonists, unlike Carano’s, were not witless enough to confuse hyperbolic Nazi comparisons with anti-Semitism.)" . . .

The Cultural Civil War Begins  "The Powers That Be cancel Morgan Wallen and Gina Carano, and America rallies to them."

Carano refused to follow the cultural Left’s demands that she identify her pronouns on her social media profile, and supposedly that makes her “transphobic.” She expressed doubt, as perhaps most Americans have, that Jeffrey Epstein killed himself. Carano made fun of the wildly over-the-top COVID restrictions in California, a mainstream enough position that opposition to those restrictions has now fueled a recall election against that state’s governor, Gavin Newsom. She expressed doubt over the integrity of the 2020 election.

With a new administration, an even more malignant tone on the left

 

Patricia McCarthy  "Psaki daily tries to cover up her lack of any actual policy knowledge with phrases like "I'll have to circle back to you on that," over and over and over again.  When asked an even remotely challenging question, she insults or mocks whoever asked it.  She may be the worst press secretary ever.  She seems to think she's a star on a reality TV program, tasked with coming up with the best takedown of any reporter with a legitimate policy question.  She is wholly unprofessional, as is just about every other person Biden has appointed to his Cabinet and staff.

"The first weeks of this administration have been a disaster.  Psaki's tone is in keeping with the words of every other appointee.  Essentially, their attitude is, "We're in power now, the media is on our side, so you all are under our thumb." 

"The left, as always throughout history, is all about power and control.  Leftists do not respect or revere the freedoms guaranteed to all Americans by our Constitution.  They loathe that document with every fiber of their being; it limits their power over us.  Any protestations to the contrary are lies.

"If you do not realize by now that our left, from Woodrow Wilson to Jimmy Carter Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, and now Joe Biden, is motivated by a deep disdain for our working people, our middle class, you are fooling yourself.  As we are seeing right now before our eyes, the American left has embraced a 21st-century version of Maoism.  Look no farther than Thomas Freidman, who for ten years has revealed his elitist class's high regard for China and his contempt for America.  See Lee Smith's column, "The Thirty Tyrants"; he reveals the moment our ruling class became Sinophiles.  Joe Biden will never cross China; his every move will strengthen the CCP and weaken America." . . .

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." . . .

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

Via Current Affairs

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…..

Students at Catholic Georgetown U. Protest Appearance by MLK’s Pro-Life Niece

 Legal Insurrection

Student activists at Georgetown University, a Catholic school, have decided that Dr. Alveda King, the niece of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., should be condemned after speaking there.

Her crimes? She is pro-life and supported President Trump.

Hank Berrien writes at the Daily Wire:

Student Activists At Catholic University Protest MLK’s Pro-Life, Trump-Supporting Niece

Self-described “pro-choice” students at Georgetown University have demanded that the Catholic university “publicly condemn” the pro-life speakers who participated in the Cardinal O’Connor Conference on Life in late January. Among the speakers singled out by the student activists is Dr. Alveda King, the niece of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., whom the students accused of “promot[ing] bigotry and hatred.”

“The conference, which bills itself as ‘the largest student-run, pro-life conference in the nation,’ has been held at Georgetown for more than two decades,” Angela Morabito of Campus Reform noted.

"Here’s an excerpt of the petition attacking King:

Speaker Alveda King is Martin Luther King Jr.’s niece. However, unlike her uncle who preached tolerance and justice, Alveda King promotes bigotry and hatred. She uses her platform to publicly promote extreme anti-LGBTQ ideologies: she has compared same-sex marriage to genocide, compared homosexuality to fatness, and written that same-sex marriage and abortions cause natural disasters. She is also an avowed Trump supporter, and has publicly and continuously countered allegations condemning Trump for being racist, tweeting “President Trump is not a racist!! He is one of the best presidents America has ever seen! I fully support him!”

Furthermore, she has referred to abortions as “womb-lynchings,” stating that “lynching is not a sacred cow reserved for the lamentations of descendants of black slaves in America.” In addition, she has publicly voiced her opposition to the Black Lives Matter Organization, inaccurately claiming that it supports “genocide and mayhem.' ” . . .
