Whoopi turns 'election denier' in unhinged 'View' whoop-de-do



Amber Ruffin is the perfect political comic for our age. That’s not a compliment.

The former late-night host (does anyone remember her Peacock show?) is now the new voice of the resistance alongside Colbert and co.

Lucas wasn’t shoe-horning progressive platitudes into his movie or lecturing audiences on Jedi privilege. He cared about the franchise first and foremost.

Ruffin gained attention after she was hired and later fired from being the comic host of last month’s White House Correspondents’ Association D.C. gala. The not-so-august body realized Ruffin’s hard-left shtick wouldn’t mesh with its laughable attempt to play the “we don’t choose sides, y’all” card.

Ruffin has never been THAT funny.

Now, she’s riding that cancellation wave to accidentally remind us the WHCA got it right the second time. She’s too unhinged even for late-night TV (but not “The View”).

First, she promoted the “very fine people” hoax to smite President Donald Trump, as if everyone with a functioning brain didn’t know it’s been repeatedly debunked, even by the liberal Snopes.

Now, she’s warning us on, where else, “The View” that President Trump will keep “disappearing” people who cross him. She also suggested Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will start abducting autistic children.

Even “The View” producers must have blinked hard on that twofer. Here’s betting the show’s legal team brewed a few extra pots of joe that day ...

'Sith' happens

“Star Wars” fans once hated franchise creator George Lucas so much they made a movie about it. The 2010 documentary “The People vs. George Lucas” let fans take Lucas to the nerd woodshed. They roasted the filmmaker for replacing the original film trilogy with an “updated” version that messed with core parts of the saga.

Google “Han shot first” to get the gist of the debate. The trio of underwhelming prequels Lucas delivered added fuel to the fire.

Now? Well, after a decade of Disney-produced “Star Wars” content, some, if not all, is forgiven. The 20th anniversary rerelease of “Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith” (written and directed by Lucas) made a shocking $25 million last weekend. That’s more than many new films earn in their opening frames.

Why? “Sith” was better than we remember, for starters. Plus, “woke” wasn’t even a thing back in 2005. Lucas wasn’t shoe-horning progressive platitudes into his movie or lecturing audiences on Jedi privilege. He cared about the franchise first and foremost. That’s all. Now, that’s more than enough.

Maybe, the one sequel we need is “The People vs. George Lucas 2: The Apology” ...

Off-key

Neil Young can’t stop embarrassing himself.

It’s bad enough that the former free speech warrior tried to get Joe Rogan canceled for sharing the “wrong” pandemic views on his Spotify platform. It got worse when Young ripped his music off the platform in protest and, later, quietly put it back in.

Now, Young is barking at Elon Musk’s EV company Tesla via song, and both the lyrics and the message couldn’t be more muddled.

“Come on Ford, come on GM / Come on Chrysler, let’s roll again ... China’s way ahead, they’re making clean cars,” Young sang at a recent concert. Guess he hasn’t heard about China’s affinity for not-so-clean coal plants.

Need more lyrics?

“If you’re a Democrat, taste your freedom / Get whatever you want, taste your freedom.”

Oh, and the song calls Telsa owners “fascists.”

We’ve lost David Crosby, sadly, but can’t the surviving members of Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young stage an intervention?

Whoopi's whoopsie

Another day, another unhinged conspiracy on “The View.”

This time, Whoopi Goldberg got the ball rolling by suggesting President Donald Trump fixed the 2024 presidential election. Quick! Get Robert Mueller on line one! The walls are closing in!

I want to remind people that [Trump] took credit for Biden’s economy — BOOMING economy, claiming investors knew he was going to win. I think he should stop saying that because you’re going to make somebody investigate how investigators would know you were going to win. I'm just putting that out there. You know.

Hey, she’s just asking questions. And since it’s “The View,” the questions remain nuclear-grade dumb.

Don’t Blame Disney. Star Wars Has Always Been Terrible

Before Disney made Star Wars gay, it was just a poorly written cash grab meant to sell merchandise to dweebs.

George Lucas strikes back at woke critics who say 'Star Wars' is 'all white men'



"Star Wars" creator George Lucas defended the franchise from criticism that it was mostly composed of white males on Friday at the Cannes Film Festival.

The 80-year-old was at the festival to receive Palme d'Or honors on Saturday at the closing ceremony when he made the comments about the first six movies of "Star Wars."

'People are always discriminating against something.'

“They would say, ‘It’s all white men.' I'd say, it's not. Most of the people are aliens," he said, according to People magazine.

"And the idea is you’re supposed to accept people for what they are, whether they’re big and furry or whether they’re green and whatever — the idea is all people are equal," he added.

He went on to point out that his original movies only showed discrimination against robots and droids.

“And that was a way of saying, people are always discriminating against something, and sooner or later, that’s what’s going to happen,” he continued. “I mean, we’re already starting with AI, saying, ‘Well, we can’t trust those robots.'”

He cited several minority actors who were featured in the original movies including Billy Dee Williams as Lando Calrissian and Samuel L. Jackson as Mace Windu in the prequel movies.

Lucas then pointed to the strong female characters in the franchise.

“Who do you think the heroes are in these stories? What do you think Princess Leia was? She’s the head of the rebellion," Lucas added. "She’s the one that’s taking this young kid who doesn’t know anything and this boisterous, I-know-everything guy who can’t do anything and trying to save the rebellion with these clowns."

Lucas became fabulously wealthy as a result of the lucrative deal he struck to receive merchandise royalties from the "Star Wars" movies. He later became even more fabulously wealthy when he sold the franchise to Disney in 2012 for $4.05 billion.

While many fans saw the Disney purchase as a new hope for the franchise, the subsequent trilogy of movies has angered many by dismantling some of the popular narratives of the original storyline.

'Why does everything new have to undermine what came before?'

Critics have already lined up to warn fans that the next "Star Wars" show to be released will likely have woke elements owing to far-left statements made previously by the director and other principle

“It looks like this series is going to be the worst that Disney 'Star Wars' has ever seen,” said Lauren Chen of "Pseudo-Intellectual" on Blaze Media. “Why does everything now have to be subversive? Why does everything new have to undermine what came before?”

Despite that disappointment among many fans, Disney has recently said it has made almost $12 billion from the sci-fi franchise.
