Ellen DeGeneres packs her bags for the UK and says she’s 'never coming back'



Several Hollywood stars threatened to leave the United States if Donald Trump won the election. How many of them will prove good on their ultimatums remains to be seen.

However, one star who is most certainly on her way out of the country is Ellen DeGeneres. And she’s not just leaving; she’s “never coming back.”

Dave Rubin and co-hosts Winston Marshall and Isabel Brown discuss the television star’s exodus.

“She can't live in her Montecito house worth a hundred million dollars anymore with all of her servants. She's moving to the U.K.,” says Dave. “I am fairly certain that the jihadists running the streets of London love lesbians.”

“Please keep her,” sighs Marshall, who’s from the U.K. “Things are bad enough.”

In all seriousness though, liberal hysteria following Trump’s win has grown to comical levels.

“I read the other day that a cruise company is actually offering a four-year cruise for almost $200,000 at over 400 ports of entry for you to temporarily escape the country while Trump is president,” says Brown.

Further, it’s ironic DeGeneres is specifically fleeing to the U.K. where free speech “is not a guaranteed right.”

One would think that “talk show hosts like Ellen DeGeneres that are quite used to the protections of being able to say everything that's on [her] mind and to criticize the people in power” would appreciate our First Amendment, but apparently the U.K.’s Orwellian grip on speech is preferable, adds Brown.

Denzel Washington complains about 'Gladiator II' directors cutting his gay kissing scene — ‘They got chicken’



The highly anticipated “Gladiator II,” starring Denzel Washington in the role of Macrinus hits theaters this Friday.

One person who isn’t excited about the sequel, however, is Jason Whitlock.

His disappointment stems not from the movie itself but rather from what Washington decided to reveal about his role in the film.

“I actually kissed a man in the film but they took it out, they cut it, I think they got chicken. I kissed a guy full on the lips and I guess they weren’t ready for that yet. I killed him about five minutes later. It’s ‘Gladiator.’ It’s the kiss of death,” he said.


Shemeka Michelle, who joins Jason on the program, expresses her confusion.

“Over the course of his career, he never did a sex scene or any type of strong kissing out of respect for his wife, … yet you go and kiss a man,” she says, adding that Washington could have easily given his “kiss of death” on the cheek.

“They have to pledge allegiance to the alphabet mafia. … In some form or fashion, they always have to let you know, ‘I don't hate the gays’ or ‘I don't hate the trans. I'm really a friend,’” she tells Jason.

“I think there is a right of passage in Hollywood and in the music and entertainment industry that you have to promote that lifestyle,” Jason agrees. “You can't reach that level of stardom in Hollywood without going through that right of passage.”

As for Washington’s profession of Christianity, Whitlock says he’s skeptical now.

“He's gone his whole career and had a pretty rock-solid reputation, had presented himself as some sort of Christian. I had always questioned it, and now I have the proof,” he says.

Washington could have said, “Hey, you know what? I know that's a big movie, but I'm good. I'm worth 200 million, 300 million, 400 million — whatever. I'm good. I've had enough. I'm not going to kiss a man,” Jason sighs.

Will Hollywood dial back the woke meter now that Trump is returning to power?



The election that will bring Donald Trump back into power as the 47th president of the United States proved a lot of things: People care more about the economy than “reproductive rights,” people don’t trust Kamala Harris’ policy flip-flopping, and as Rick Burgess points out, people don’t buy into the left’s woke agenda.

They “[overplayed] their hand,” he says.

It turns out that people at large still have their wits about them because they rejected the wokeness that demands setting aside all logic and reasoning.

The question now is: Will the entertainment industry, which has been poisoned by woke ideology, get the message and correct course?


“Will movie makers, will entertainment people get that cue?” Burgess asks Bubba Bussey.

“No, not to the level you think they would,” says Bubba, noting that in 1984 when Reagan won 49 states, he mistakenly believed that that was “the end of liberalism.”

“But it’s never that way,” he adds. “There’s a lot of people in the middle out there ... that just kind of vote for who they like.”

On top of that, “If you just look through history, it swings back and forth all the time.”

If we want to see a change that isn’t fleeting, Bubba says the Trump administration needs to “get busy right away and make some real changes that are substantive and make a difference in everybody’s daily life,” otherwise “the pendulum will swing back.”

Mark Wahlberg echoes Trump's plan to move Hollywood film industry — '[Nevada's] got everything to offer'



At a recent rally in Nevada, Donald Trump brought up an interesting subject: Hollywood.

“If I pull this off with the help of your governor, a lot of Hollywood will be moving from California because right now you don't have the land … it's owned by the federal government. We're going to open up that land to you; you'll be able to build studios and everything else,” he told a cheering crowd.

Dave Rubin loves Trump’s idea to take a crumbling Hollywood and move it somewhere else where it can be prosperous.

And apparently, Mark Wahlberg agrees.

Dave plays a clip of the actor “talking about his mission to bring film studios to Nevada.”

“I’m hoping to premiere my next film here and hoping to make lots of films here and move lots of studios and streamers and everybody here to create new jobs, new industry. I think [Nevada’s] got everything to offer.

Wahlberg articulated his goal to “bring something to the table when coming to Las Vegas because Las Vegas obviously has so much to offer.”

“I think when people hear Las Vegas, they think of the Strip and casinos, which is fine, but 20 minutes away, it's one of the most amazing communities that I've ever been a part of. It's all about faith and family, and it’s thriving,” he explained.

“I wanted to come with something to offer myself, whether it be hopefully bringing the film industry here, bringing, you know, a factory here to make shoes and apparel and creating other opportunity and jobs. I want to enrich the community and be a part of something,” he continued, emphasizing his intentions to “be connected to people,” “find great partnerships,” “work hard with people,” “create opportunity,” and “inspire other people.”

Dave admires someone who’s willing to leave his home behind for the sake of building a better community.

“He saw what was happening there and said, ‘Oh, there are places where I can do this better and I can be part of something that is building and thriving,” he says.

“That really is the message right now for America,” he continues. “Which way do we want to go? Do we want to be more like California, or do we want to be more like … a Nevada that is thriving or a Florida that is thriving or a Texas that is thriving?”

‘I wish I was black’: Ben Stiller bows down to Kamala in HUMILIATING fundraiser speech



The rich and famous love to tell middle-class Americans how to live and who they should vote for, and unfortunately, once funny guy Ben Stiller is no different.

“Is there anything better than Hollywood celebrities on the things that they say?” Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” comments before playing a clip of Stiller speaking during a Kamala fundraiser, during which he says a whole lot of nothing.

“I’m so genuinely excited about the potential to actually win this election,” Stiller began. “What’s happened the last couple of weeks, just the turn of the tide, and that you know, Vice President Harris can actually win this thing if we all just rally around and really take advantage of this incredible energy.”

“I just want a decent person in the White House, you know, a person who cares about democracy more than themselves, who doesn’t lie, who’s not fomenting anger and rage, someone who cares about people, and that’s what Kamala Harris is,” he continued.

Stiller then went on to praise that she’s “like a human being” and “acts like a human being.”

“She has empathy and she has humor and it's beautiful when she laughs because she’s a real person who is reacting to things,” he said, sounding fairly delusional.

Stiller attempted to talk policy by exclaiming that Kamala “wants to put an end to gun violence in this country” and “the fact that she’s going to fight for a woman’s right to choose.”

While his discombobulated and ill-informed speech didn’t seem as if it could get any worse, it got worse.

“I’m Jewish and Irish. I wish I was black. Every white Jewish guy wishes he was black,” he attempted to joke, adding, “It’s just, get out there and vote and donate and like take advantage.”

WATCH: Resurfaced clips of Kimmel and Colbert show what they USED to think of Kamala Harris



The media is working hard to erase Kamala Harris’ problematic past and pitch her to the nation as the savior of democracy. Mainstream outlets don’t want you to remember that not that long ago, everyone was talking about how she was the least popular vice president in the history of the country. They don’t want you to remember the countless times she was lambasted for another word salad. They don’t want you to remember how her first run for president failed miserably before voting even began.

And they certainly don’t want you to remember that some of America’s most popular late-night talk show hosts (ahem, Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert) roasted her on live television.

Dave Rubin isn’t one to forget, though. Although Kimmel and Colbert have changed their tune to be in sync with the media’s current Harris narrative – and have even invited Harris on their shows – Dave has receipts from the past.

- YouTubeyoutu.be

In the first clip, Kimmel says, “Americans really aren't happy with this vice president, Kamala Harris. Kamala Harris has an approval rating of 28%, which makes no sense because she basically has nothing to do. I mean, it’s like criticizing a backup quarterback – Tom Brady is okay; I don’t love the way Blaine Gabbert has his legs folded on the bench,” Kimmel jested.

But his digs got even sharper.

“Kamala’s approval rating of 28% is even lower than the 30% who approved of Dick Cheney in 2008 after he shot a guy in the face,” he said, as the audience roared in laughter.

In another Kimmel clip, the comedian, while standing in front of a mock choir, said, “Kamala’s approval rating is now at 28%, which is a historic low for any modern vice president.”

After this statement, the choir burst into a song with the following lyrics: “She may not be polling well with her base, but at least she didn’t shoot an old man in the face!”

In the third clip, Stephen Colbert said, “Now if Biden, uuhhh, do not run, the next person in line would obviously be Vice President Kamala Harris. Only one teensy problem … her approval dipped to 28%. To put that into perspective, the movie ‘Batman vs. Superman’ has an approval rating of 29%. So Kamala Harris is 1% less popular than watching two and a half hours of Batman and Superman wrestle each other, then realize their moms have the same first name so they decide to be friends.”

The talk show hosts’ comments are hilarious and true. But they no longer are consistent with the mainstream media’s narrative. Chances are Kimmel and Cobert regret these past segments on their shows.

'Real subtle': season finale of Amazon Prime show features presidential assassination plot scheduled for January 6, debuts ONE WEEK after Trump shooting



“The Boys” – a television series about rogue superheroes – is one of Amazon Prime’s most successful shows to date. However, with each season, the producers have dialed up the wokeness and all but ruined the show. Its popularity rating has dropped in tandem with the increased politicization of the characters and plot.

In her last video, Lauren tackled the show’s pro-abortion agenda. In this review, she lambastes the finale, which was destined to be a scandal due to its contents and timing.

- YouTubewww.youtube.com

To backtrack a bit, in this season of “The Boys,” the writers have made it clear from the get-go that the character of Homelander, who is the face of the entire series, is a parody of Donald Trump – the left’s version of Donald Trump, that is.

Homelander and his supporters are painted as racist, sexist, fascist, and just plain evil. It could easily be said that his character mirrored the mainstream media’s incessant cries of “Trump is Hilter!”

Interestingly enough, the finale of “The Boys” dropped on July 18, not even a week after Trump’s near-assassination. But did that stop the creators from airing the episode, which, believe it or not, centered on the plotted assassination of a president (which was scheduled for January 6) and Homelander’s plan to take over America and imprison those who don’t get on board with his agenda?

No, it did not.

The finale dropped as scheduled, but the original title of the episode – “Assassination Run” – was changed to just “Season 4 Finale.” The producers also threw in a disclaimer at the beginning of the episode that read: “Viewer discretion advised. This episode contains scenes of fictional political violence. Any similarities to recent events are completely coincidental and unintentional. Prime Video, Amazon MGM Studios, Sony Pictures Television and producers of The Boys oppose, in strongest terms, real-world violence of any kind.”

“You've just spent an entire season absolutely skewering American conservatives, and your season finale is set to air just a few days following the assassination attempt on Donald Trump, and in said finale, you also feature an attempted political assassination, this time at the hands of your Donald Trump parody character,” says Lauren, adding that she “personally would not have wanted to be on the PR team for Amazon.”

“Basically the entire message of Season 4 of ‘The Boys’ has been that conservatives are domestic terrorists; they are the real threats; they are the violent ones,” she continues.

Further, when it comes to Amazon’s disclaimer, Lauren argues that the entire reason it was necessary is because of the show’s failed attempt at satire.

“I think satire is best done when it's frankly more layered and less obvious and more thematic than just simply parodying specific individuals and specific events,” she says.

WATCH: Viral resurfaced clip from 2020 may be the wokest thing in existence: 'Your son’s tumor is caused by racism.'



2020 – the height of the everything is racist, sexist, homophobic, etc. mentality – produced some utterly ludicrous ideas, but none so ludicrous as what was pitched by the creators of NBC’s “New Amsterdam,” which thankfully ended in 2023.

Dave Rubin plays what will inevitably go down in history as the wokest moment on television.

Resurfaced Clip from 2020 May Be the Funniest ‘Woke’ TV Ever Madeyoutu.be

In what can only be described as sickeningly melodramatic, a doctor speaks to a worried mother whose son is suffering from some kind of tumor.

“Your son – he feels threatened on a daily basis, like everything he's earned can just be taken away. He’s disenfranchised, but because his life is seemingly free from all this, because he can’t name it, he’s internalizing it…I think your son’s tumor is caused by racism,” the doctor sighs.

“I can’t imagine why that show was canceled!” laughs Dave, adding that the clip is bizarrely “making the rounds now” despite being filmed four years ago.

PragerU’s Xaviaer DuRousseau equates watching the clip to “cyanide poisoning.”

“I am just so repulsed by that show,” he says. “To make it seem like, oh, because people hurt your feelings, now you have cancer … it’s like can we please be serious? Like that’s more unserious than Fauci trying to tell us about COVID.”

“There’s nothing that sells more in this country than victim bingo.”

Five reasons ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’ is the girlboss movie we actually DO need



Nearly ten years ago, "Mad Max: Fury Road," featuring Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy, dazzled audiences across the globe with its post-apocalyptic, dystopian narrative. The film was a success, scoring 97% on Rotten Tomatoes and winning six Oscars.

Now the franchise is back with a new film, starring Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth, but does the movie live up to its predecessor?

Many have been skeptical of “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga,” given that most modern female-centric films tend to come with a progressive agenda.

“Leading up to its release, a lot of people were rolling their eyes thinking that this is going to be just another tale of a woke feminist girlboss,” says Lauren Chen, who's BlazeTV's guru when it comes to exposing woke cinema.

Surprisingly, however, “almost nobody – especially those who've actually seen the movie – are calling it woke, feminist, or implying that Furiosa is a girlboss in any type of way.”

“Even though Furiosa is a woman and she is strong and a main character, she is far, far from the Mary Sue likes of Rey or Captain Marvel that people are so keen to hate on,” Lauren explains, adding that “Furiosa is a good case study of how a character can be strong and a woman and competent but also not be a feminist Mary Sue wet dream.”

What makes Furiosa a real girlboss?

For starters, “she actually makes mistakes,” unlike the Mary Sue archetype, who is practically perfect in every way.

Further, “she actually has to learn, grow, and rise through the ranks in order to be successful,” says Lauren, who condemns Rey and Captain Marvel as examples of modern-day Mary Sues who’ve “gotten everything that they want right away without ever having to work.”

“[Furiosa] really starts from nothing – a little girl with no skills … and it's only after years and years and years that she eventually gains not only a title that is worthy of respect but also skills to go along with that.”

“Reason number three why Furiosa is not a Mary Sue,” according to Lauren, “is that she does not have magical superpowers that make her better and stronger than everybody.”

In fact, “she gets her own a** handed to her many, many times throughout the film. She even loses an arm because she gets outsmarted,” Lauren explains. “She’s a character who goes through hell, which makes her interesting.”

Additionally, Furiosa’s character diverges from the typical female lead role in that she actually “depends on other people” – unlike the trendy goddess archetype whose strength and independence transcend any need for support or community.

“Furiosa herself is not perfect, and that actually allows for other characters to, you know, do things in the movie that are meaningful,” says Lauren.

The last reason for why "Furiosa" is not a Mary Sue film has to do with the male characters in the movie. To hear the final point, watch the clip below.
