Finally: Businesses Drop Sponsorship of Vile Ugly Hag Jennifer Welch After She Celebrates the Murder of Charlie Kirk (For About the Fifth Time)

Demonic.

Cash App, Chewy, Boll & Branch, and Lola Blankets said on Friday that they no longer sponsor or advertise leftist Jennifer Welch's I've Had It podcast, according to company statements and customer service messages shared online amid backlash.

Cash App condemned violence in announcing it was no longer sponsoring the show. Chewy and Lola Blankets addressed their ties to the podcast in responses shared by customers, while Boll & Branch publicly ruled out future advertising. Their statements did not all specify when the sponsorships ended.

"We do not condone violence of any kind, and we are no longer sponsors of this podcast," Cash App wrote on X in response to a user who tagged the company and called for a boycott over its sponsorship of the episode.

"Does Cashapp support the mocking of a murder victim?" the user asked.

Chewy said it was no longer connected to the podcast in a customer service response shared by X user Val Candee.

"I do want to clarify that Chewy is no longer affiliated with or sponsoring the 'I've Had It' podcast," the representative wrote.

...

The hosts had been discussing posts mocking conservative positions on abortion, vaccines, and transgender issues when Welch reached the comment about Kirk. Before reading it, she praised the people writing the posts and said their jokes made her feel patriotic.

"We're digging up Charlie Kirk and doing it again," Welch read.

Both hosts lowered their heads and laughed for more than 20 seconds.

In related entertainment news: People have been wondering when James Gunn would be fired as co-president of DC's film division after the divisive Superman and unifying Supergirl. (It unified people in contempt.)

People thought that Gunn's move to put the Superman sequel in production early would keep him in the job at least through the film's release. In the industry, this is called the Kathleen Kennedy Gambit.

But the gambit didn't work for Gunn.

DC Studios Shocker: James Gunn, Peter Safran Stepping Down with Marvel Alum Jeremy Latcham to Take Over

The duo were believed to be safe amid the Skydance takeover of Warner Bros., but now have a former Kevin Feige protege taking over their division.

In a major shakeup that will send shock waves throughout Hollywood and the comic book world, James Gunn and Peter Safran are stepping down as co-CEOs of DC studios.

Skydance, which now oversees the division thanks to its acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, has appointed former Marvel exec Jeremy Latcham to the post of president and chief creative officer of DC Studios.

Gunn and Safran are stepping down from their leadership roles effect Dec. 1, four years after taking over the job to much fanfare. The duo released three movies during that time (Superman, Supergirl and Clayface), as well as three live-action TV shows (The Penguin, Peacemaker season 2 and Lanterns), and had a decade's worth of plans in the works. In an Instagram post in which he talked about the highs and lows at DC, Gunn acknowledged that being an exec was "trying, to say the least." He added: "I dislike the at-times corporate nature of the job (thanks to Peter for taking the brunt of that.)."

The duo will still be in the fold creatively, at least on a few projects, as Gunn has Superman sequel Man of Tomorrow in post-production for a planned release next year, with the TV spinoff The People v. Gorilla Grodd also in post. Gunn and Safran remain producers on The Batman: Part II as well, for a 2028 release date. With their executive days done, the plan is for them to return full time to their creative work. Gunn rose to fame as the blockbuster filmmaker behind Guardians of the Galaxy, while Safran is a prolific producer on numerous DC and horror titles. Gunn revealed in his Instagram post Monday that he is writing one more secret DC movie, and that the characters they set up will live on beyond them.

"James and Peter launched a new era for DC Studios and led it through a period of real transformation, resetting the foundation and building a slate we're incredibly proud of," Skydance chairman and CEO David Ellison and co-CEO Ynon Kreiz said jointly in a statement. "We're grateful for their passion, contributions and commitment to this legendary brand."

...

Per Skydance, Latcham will lead DC's film, television and animation slate, overseeing the creative pipeline, along with production, talent and strategy.

...

The exit now puts into question the vast plans the duo announced when they took over and tried to steer the DC movies beyond the long shadow cast by the Zack Snyder era. Gunn and Safran started off with the successful launch of a new Superman movie last year but then stumbled big with Supergirl, a critical and commercial bomb. Their third movie, Clayface, has generated strong reviews and is a moneymaker.

So the guy who greenlit the racist replacement fantasy "Lanterns" is now out.

Good.

Update: Dave Chappelle says he "feels better" now that Charlie Kirk has been murdered.

I'm not sure what this entire statement is about. Does he mean he figures that some controversial public speakers are going to be killed, so he's glad that one of them was not himself?

Or does he just cheer on the murder of a white man? (Chappelle is and always has been a black cracker racist.)

I don't know.

Either way, this is toxic. .
