Dressing for Success in Hollyweird

Posted on by

They did the casting for Reagan all wrong; consequently, the movie is disqualified for an Oscar. Those who want awards and accolades in Tinseltown need to do casting like this:

Cynthia Erivo, the black lesbian actress cast to play Jesus in ‘Jesus Christ Superstar’ at the Hollywood Bowl showed up to the Oscars on Sunday evening looking like a demonic vampire.

The establishment media “could just melt” over it:

As noted earlier, this blasphemous choice to play Jesus was appropriately best known for her role in a movie named Wicked.

If moonbat culture continues to decay or rather expose itself at its current rate, within a few years Hollyweird events will feature actresses devouring live fetuses before the adulating media.

They Forgot to Make Reagan Diverse

Posted on by

Even if everyone agreed that Reagan was the best movie of the year, it wouldn’t get the Oscar, because it failed to meet DEI requirements:

The movie, starring Dennis Quaid as the Republican president, couldn’t hit any of the criteria that the Academy for Motion Pictures requires of Best Picture nominations, including that their casts be at least 30% from traditionally underrepresented groups such as minorities, women and the LGBTQ community.

If only they had cast Jussie Smollett as Ronaldus Maximus.

Good thing the DEI quotas don’t work retroactively:

“By these new rules, many previous winners would never have been recognized,” said “Reagan” screenwriter Howard A. Klausner to The Post.

Such movies include Patton, The Godfather, Amadeus, and Rocky.

You can see why there aren’t more movies celebrating the Founding Fathers and the American Revolution. No nonwhites, no sexual deviants, no critical acclaim.

Despite its lack of Oscars attention, “Reagan” commands a glowing 98% audience approval rating on the film-scoring website Rotten Tomatoes, although it also garnered a dismal 18% critics score.

The critics score measures compliance with liberal ideology. Diversity stops being politically correct if applied to viewpoint. As a general rule, the lower the score, the better the movie.

Again we see that as with the Nobel Peace Prize, Pulitzer Prize, and Presidential Medal of Freedom under Democrats, any award bestowed by the moonbat establishment is worthless or worse.

Haitian Imported by Biden Accused of Triple Homicide

Posted on by

When you read about homicidal maniacs from abroad spilling blood in our country…

The Fayetteville [North Carolina] Police Department said that 26-year-old Mackendy Darbouze has been charged with three counts of first-degree murder for allegedly killing 77-year-old Beatrice Desir, as well as a 13-year-old and a 4-year-old.

…you wonder how they got here, considering that the most expensive military in the world ought to be more than a match for such invaders. Here’s how:

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) told Fox News that Darbouze had flown into the U.S. in July 2024 as part of Biden’s Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela (CHNV) migrant flights mass parole program.

Sounds like we even paid for Darbouze’s ticket from Haiti. In return, we get multiculturally enriched with this:

A local ABC station in Raleigh reported that authorities said Darbouze greeted police at the door with blood on his hands, face and pants.

At the time of the stabbing, authorities added, there were three other children inside the home.

That’s what North Carolina will be like after civilization has been eradicated. It’s what progressives have been progressively imposing.

By the way,

This same program allowed Jose Ibarra, the Venezuelan convicted murderer of Laken Riley, to enter the U.S. as well.

These killers were imported as part of a war waged by Democrats against American society.

Sydney Local Woman of the Year Is a Man

Posted on by

Liberals put us all at risk by lowering standards so that women can work as firefighters, police officers, even soldiers. Then they take awards explicitly intended for women and give them men.

In Australia, this year’s Sydney Local Woman of the Year has been announced. His name is Brianna Skinner.

New South Wales MP Alex Greenwich explains why Skinner was given the honor:

“Brianna’s own experience of transitioning from male to female highlighted to her [sic] the discrimination and bureaucratic discrepancies that outdated NSW laws imposed on Trans and gender diverse people.”

When it comes to the cultural Marxist hierarchy, women must know their place. They are above men per se — but well below men who pretend to be women.

Presenting Mr. Skinner.

Libs Begin to Admit Net Zero Is Pie in the Sky

Posted on by

When you see this in Roto-Reuters, stick a fork in net zero:

The pursuit of net zero carbon emissions has been a resounding failure. Despite trillions of dollars spent on renewable energy, hydrocarbons still account for over 80% of the world’s primary energy and a similar share of recent increases in energy consumption, according to The Energy Institute. … The financial markets were already losing confidence in the energy transition before Donald Trump returned to the White House.

Like society’s descent into leftism, the green energy transition has been presented to us by the liberal establishment as historically inevitable. Yet it is not going to happen.

Solar and wind power have grown to a mere 3.5% of primary energy production.

Massive government subsidies cannot erase the fact that these are not economically rational means of generating electricity because they are intermittent.

Germany and the United Kingdom, which get a relatively large share of their electricity from renewables, also suffer from the world’s highest electricity costs.

The damage goes beyond inflated electric bills:

High energy costs have crippled domestic manufacturing.

Even if you believe that reducing CO2 emissions will improve the weather,

Targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions are measured on territorial production. This incentivises countries to switch from domestic manufacturing to importing energy intensive goods, often from countries such as China and India, whose factories are largely powered by coal-powered electricity. Thus, the reduction in an individual country’s emissions can lead to an increase in global emissions.

There will be energy transitions in the future, just as there have been in the past. However,

Each was accomplished by market forces rather than government fiat.

It has been obvious for some time that green energy is not economically sane and that a serious attempt to impose net zero would result in economic collapse. Why is Reuters beginning to acknowledge this now? JoNova answers:

Because reality is making Reuters look stupid — it’s not the reality of high costs or blackouts, but the reality that Trump won, and set fire to the “transition” fantasy by dumping Paris, dropping subsidies, opening gas fields, and installing a corporate energy CEO as the US Energy Secretary. Chris Wright and JD Vance are dropping truth bombs in speeches that can’t be ignored. Word is spreading fast, and if Reuters don’t report this, they risk being turned into the same irrelevant wreckage the US mainstream media channels already are.

Reclaiming the MSM’s lost credibility may be as lost a cause as green energy.

Elvira, Mistress of Moonbattery

Posted on by

Anyone remember Cassandra Peterson, a.k.a. Elvira, Mistress of the Dark? She got her 15 minutes by presenting cleavage in a vampy outfit while hosting horror B movies. Here’s what she’s up to nowadays:

There is only one way to be more of a pop culture bubblehead than Sheryl Crow: by imitating Sheryl Crow.

These ditzes seem to think their donation to the moonbats at NPR come out of Elon Musk’s pocket rather than their own.

Small surprise that Elvira would be a fan of the Democrats — and not only because she is an LGBTer produced by the degenerate entertainment industry. Something has been rising toward the surface among liberals that is straight out of one of the movies she hosted, but more disturbing.

Transgender Clinic in India Was Financed by Us

Posted on by

No wonder liberals are so enraged at Trump reining in spending by USAID. It has resulted in the closure of India’s historic first dedicated transgender healthcare clinic:

Mitr Clinic, located in the south Indian city of Hyderabad, had its US foreign funding cut off under a 90-day USAid freeze signed off by Donald Trump.

Angrily whimpers a transgender patient named Roomy:

“Mitr was the only facility where we were getting free healthcare without any discrimination. I am heartbroken and enraged with its closure.”

Actually, the “gender-affirming [i.e., gender-denying] services” provided in India under the guise of healthcare were not free. They were paid for by US taxpayers, effectively at gunpoint.
