In other news - the fight between Elon Musk and Disney CEO Bob Iger has added another chapter. The CEO of X is now looking for people who want to sue Disney for discrimination, even offering to help pay for their legal fees. Musk's call to arms comes on the same day that actress Gina Carano filed a lawsuit against Disney and Lucasfilm, accusing them of wrongfully terminating her from her role in “The Mandalorian.” Musk is also helping to pay for her case. The new addition to the feud comes on the heels of Disney’s first-quarter earnings report, in...

‘I was being hunted down from everything I posted to every post I liked because I was not in line with the acceptable narrative of the time.’Nearly three years after the Star Wars franchise owners fired her from the hit TV series “The Mandalorian” over a repost on social media, producer and actress Gina Carano plans to sue Disney’s Lucasfilm for caving to a “bullying smear campaign aimed at silencing, destroying & making an example out of me.”“The truth is I was being hunted down from everything I posted to every post I liked because I was not in line...

Actress and MMA star Gina Carano is suing the Walt Disney Company for firing her from the Star Wars series The Mandalorian in 2021, alleging the studio violated California law by discriminating against her over her political beliefs. Gina Carano filed the suit against Disney and its Lucasfilm division Tuesday in a California federal court. In a notable plot twist, her court case is being funded by Elon Musk’s X, which has pledged to finance lawsuits of those who claim to have been discriminated against by their employer because of their statements made on the social media platform. Carano is...

Full transparency, this editor HOPES Susan Sarandon understands that the one party controlling the media, message, truth, censoring speech, silencing opposition, and dividing citizens into us and them is literally the Democrats and that she is calling them out for this type of behavior … And knowing her history with mainstream Democrats we think this is a fair assumption. Heck, she came out against Hillary Clinton and they STILL haven’t forgiven her for that. Do we think this makes her a Republican? No. But do we think she’s onto the Democrats and has been for a while? Yes. pic.twitter.com/dYOljrvl2X —...

Actress Susan Sarandon, an ardent leftist during her professional life who routinely retweets other ardent leftists, posted a message on social media akin to the message that actress Gina Carano posted in early 2021 that got her canceled. In early 2021, Carano, then starring in Disney’s “The Mandalorian,” posted a message on Instagram to illustrate her feelings about the hate directed toward political conservatives. She posted a photo with the caption: Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbors…even by children. Because history is edited, most people today don’t realize that to get to...

The legendary former MMA fighter was fired from Disney’s “Mandalorian,” a spinoff of the Star Wars franchise, after an Instagram story comparing the heated political climate to Nazi Germany last year. Carano’s career, however, was not over. She signed on to a starring role in the film “Terror on the Prairie,” which was developed by The Daily Wire. The conservative news outlet is seeking to build a movie business for people who, like Carano, are alienated from Hollywood’s output. “I don’t feel comfortable with mandates,” Carano said in an interview with Libby Emmons in the Post Millenial, adding that vaccine...

TWITTER JAIL—Writers for The Babylon Bee, currently inmates in Twitter Jail, are attempting to slowly tunnel their way out of their cells, according to an exposé by Dateline NBC. The dangerous inmates have allegedly concealed their escape tunnel behind a poster of their longtime crush Gina Carano. "Some of the most ruthless and dangerous people on the planet are residents here in Twitter Jail," said Warden Parag Agrawal. "We have Trump and O'Keefe in isolation. Alex Jones is in and out of the hole... I would be very surprised if these Babylon Bee pests escaped." "But sir," said Keith Morrison...

Earlier this year, actress Gina Carano was fired by Disney for wrongthink. Carano played Cara Dune, a fan-favorite character in the hit Disney+ show The Mandalorian, and her firing left a gaping hole in the cast. It hasn’t been clear what LucasFilm planned to do about Carano’s absence from the show, which won’t go unnoticed by the fans. (Her character was likely intended to have a long future of being connected to the franchise.) However, one site, Giant Freakin Robot, reports that reliable sources say LucasFilm is considering addressing her absence. Giant Freakin Robot previously reported that Carano could return...

The vaccine mandate is out of control. Actress Gina Carano has been featured in a number of major movie productions, including Deadpool, Fast & Furious 6, Haywire, and others. She appeared on various television shows and is often featured as a fitness model and former mixed martial artist. She is widely known as the “face of women’s MMA” following a 7-1 record before retiring from competition. Unwilling to abandon her principles, Carano refused to let Hollywood force every member of her cast and crew to abide by vaccine and mask mandates. While working on the movie titled “White Knuckle,” in...

It’s a real headscratcher – are these people dumb, or do they think we’re dumb, or is it a little from Column A and a little from Column B?Take Heidi Heitkamp – and you can take her since she’s not busy, the people of one of the Dakotas having fired her for being a crappy senator. This has-been was on with Bill Maher – his show is where C-list pols go to die – and they were talking about cancel culture and what happened next was illustrative. See, Heitkamp was supposed to be one of those moderate Dems from the...

The actress, who was recently booted from 'The Mandalorian,' comes from a powerful clan that owns Eldorado Resorts and recently acquired Caesars Entertainment. “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.” That’s how Gina Carano ended a statement responding to her high-profile ouster from UTA and the Star Wars series The Mandalorian while, at the same time, announcing a new film project.

Gina Carano, the conservative actress who was fired from the hit series The Mandalorian for comparing the political climate to the Nazi era, claims her former bosses at Lucasfilm and Disney were 'watching her like a hawk' before her ouster. ‘I’ve been through so much, and I’ve seen so much now, clearly, of the bullying that’s been taking place, and I saw it before,’ the former mixed martial artist tells Ben Shapiro of The Daily Wire in an interview set to air on Sunday. DailyMail.com has sought comment from both Lucasfilm and Disney.

Cancel culture is empowering a new infrastructure that will challenge the dominance of legacy cultural institutions. Corporations are using their power to enforce radical cultural standards—imported into their boardrooms from academia—on the rest of the country. Look no further than the last few days at Disney for evidence. The effect, however, is to empower a new infrastructure that will challenge the dominance of legacy cultural institutions.Ahead of Valentine’s Day, Disney-owned ABC aired a sympathetic report about OnlyFans, endorsing pornography as empowerment without any pushback whatsoever. Then Disney’s Lucasfilms dropped Gina Carano from “The Mandalorian” over a clumsy anti-woke meme she...

Toy industry giant Hasbro has ceased production on the “Cara Dune” action figure following Gina Carano’s firing from Disney’s streaming series The Mandalorian. On Monday, online retailer BigBadToyStore announced it would cancel all existing preorders of Cara Dune action figures in response to outrage over Carano’s social media profiles — which prompted Lucasfilm, owned by Disney, to fire her from the popular show. Carano faced backlash after linking modern American cancel culture to the Holocaust in a since-deleted message. “Gina Carano is not currently employed by Lucasfilm and there are no plans for her to be in the future,” a...

Lucasfilm’s firing of Gina Carano may go down as one of the more 'textbook' examples of public relations blunders. This past week the studio and its umbrella company Disney detached from Carano, following the latest in a series of social media posts which betrayed the political incorrectness of the former MMA fighter. Carano – who had been portraying rebel-turned-mercenary Cara Dune on the hit Disney+ Star Wars series The Mandalorian – had shared the following on her Instagram account: --snip-- Do note that at no point does Miss Carano refer to Republicans, conservatives, or any other specific ideology. She merely...

It used to be possible to follow the allegations and cancellations. Remember when the cooking columnist Alison Roman lost her job at The New York Times because she criticized Chrissy Teigen? That sentence looks just as absurd now as it did then, but so could 10,000 others. And it’s hard to even remember if it happened last week or last month or last year.

One of the stars of the Disney-Plus Star Wars series The Mandalorian, has been canceled by Hollywood’s cancel culture elitists after a series of brutally honest and accurate social media posts addressing both Black Lives Matter protests and today’s current political climate.Gina Carano, who played Cara Dune, a recurring character in the Star Wars spinoff series produced by Lucasfilm and Disney, was abruptly canceled (read: terminated) from her contract after a tweet explaining the verifiable correlations between the genesis of the Holocaust and how Trump supporters, conservatives and Republicans are being treated in the political arena today.A Lucasfilm spokesperson issued...

Well, that was fast! Gina Carano could have apologized for the high crime of memeing. Begged for her job back. The fighter-turned-actress-turned-culture warrior we all need had a different idea. She decided to sign with the Daily Wire. Carano will develop, produce, and star in the upcoming film developed by the media company with the inferior drinking vessel. Have fun calling Gina an anti-Semite while she's hanging out with Ben Shapiro, suckers. Carano also offered a message of hope to others like her: It gets better. "I am sending out a direct message of hope to everyone living in fear...

The reaction was as sweeping as it was swift. In a moment of time, TV and movie star Gina Carano was fired by Disney from her role on The Mandalorian and dropped by her talent agency. What did she do to deserve such harsh treatment? In a social media post, she compared societal hatred in America today because of one’s political views with societal hatred of the Jews in Nazi Germany before the Nazis implemented their maniacal extermination plan. For that, she was canceled.This is what Carano posted (before deleting the tweets on Wednesday): “Jews were beaten in the streets,...
