Author, historian and expert on Islam, Robert Spencer is CBD and J.J.'s special guest where, with the backdrop of Donald Trump's imminent arrest and detention as a political prisoner, they discuss his timely book "The Sumter Gambit: How the Left is Trying to Foment a Civil War," as well as major realignments in the Middle East, and much more!

Report/Rumor: Panic in the halls of Disney as the Wokies awake to a new reality in which they can be fired for poor performance; Iger orders executives to make the already-announced 7000 layoffs on an accelerated basis and start firing people now
Iger is a woke monster. He's only doing this because Disney is losing billions, and he has an activist investor who will stage a proxy fight unless he gets this woke disaster straightened out fast.

Discussion/speculation: Victoria Alonso had been set on a glide path to a "soft exit" back in 2021
The key idea here is that Alonso's position was made-up only for her. The position did not exist before they gave it to her, and it almost certainly will not exist now that she's gone. They're suggesting that she was "promoted" to a non-vital job as part of a plan to eventually get rid of her. But after the huge cost overruns of Marvel's latest flops, they decided to push her out sooner rather than later. Although she's in charge of VFX, she's also in charge of "physical production," meaning the actual shoots (and re-shoots, and re-re-shoots, and re-re-re-shoots) of Marvel movies.
Note that it's been previously rumored that both Marvel and Lucasfilm have taken to a shooting technique they call "scrapbooking," where they film multiple possible endings and multiple plot-exposition scenes which will lead to those possible endings. Then they choose which movie they want to assemble after test screenings. And because audiences haven't liked these movies lately, they wind up having to do re-shoots and more re-shoots later. This is obviously very costly. I don't think that's Alonso's fault, though: Having a good script in hand isn't part of physical production, it's part of development. And ultimately it's Feige approving this "scrapbooking" CYA strategy rather than just getting the script into proper shape before shooting and saying, "The script is the story, period."
Not positive this is actually happening, though. But multiple channels report on it.

Manhattan's Soros DA Alivin Bragg contacts police in anticipation of indictment of Trump next week
No more protection for Democrats, including presidents, their families, and their corrupt wives like Hillary. LOCK THEM ALL UP. If one side is going to risk political civil war by jailing the leaders of the other party, then we're all playing that game.
Alvin Bragg better stay within NYC's limits, too. That m*****f***er looks like violates drug laws on the daily, and I can see Red State Police sniffing at his hotel doors to see if any illegal substances are being consumed.

Your weekly reminder that the left supported Russia for 100 years exactly (1917 to 2017) and took its side in every dispute, arguing against every military system designed to deter them or shoot down missiles, arguing endlessly that we should concede the entire world to the Soviet Union, even laughing in a 2012 presidential debate at the notion that Russia was a "global foe."
But then in 2016 Russia spent $150,000 on FaceBook ads to stir up political trouble which a failed alcoholic lesbian claimed was "stealing the election."
At that point, the left became the absolute most unhinged of Dr. Strangelove level Russia hawks, and began attacking anyone who didn't now want to start a nuclear exchange with Russia a "RUSSIAN AGENT."
Just forget about those previous 90 years, eh, comrade? Like when the Democrat party was made up of front groups directly funded by the KGB?
Leftists have no patriotism, except to leftism itself. They championed Russia when it was invading the world and funding terrorist groups to attack Europe, Israel, and the US. They finally decided that Russia might be a Bad Guy when they ran $150,000 in ads on FaceBook that Hillary Clinton said "stole" the election from her.

Tucker Carlson obtains an addtional 40,000 hours of unseen footage. This time it involves Brandon. [Mis. Hum.]

Megyn Kelly actually interviewed the "former" CIA agent who now orders social media companies around about who to censor, Renee DiResta. You will be shocked, I'm sure, to discover that she doesn't have any conservatives working in her censorship pressure organization. Oh wait, she doesn't flatly admit that, she just hems and haws and says "I wish we had more conservatives working with us..."
They make absolutely no concessions about all the censoring they did of information that has been proven to be 100% True. They just keep repeating that it didn't come from the proper "reliable" sources. The only "experts" they think are "reliable" are the ones who get everything wrong. Which is a strange use of the word "reliable." Unless it just means... an agent who can be relied upon to advance Regime propaganda, no matter what the actual truth might be.
Which is, of course, precisely what they mean by it.

Space Ice, the guy who savages Steven Segal movies and praises John Claude Van Damme as a demigod, reviews The Fifth Element
It's not my bag but commenters are always mentioning this movie.

MLB batter called out on strikes after 9th inning time violation ends game. New timing rules result in automatic strike call if batter is out of the box for 8 seconds and automatic ball call if pitcher is not set after 15 seconds (with bases empty and 20 seconds if runner on base). Prepare to be confused and disappointed this season. [dri]
