Just like voters did in 2008 and 2016, Hulu has taken a hard pass on Hillary Clinton. The Disney-owned Hulu has axed its planned dramatic series about Hillary Clinton — simply titled Rodham — after nearly two years in development, according to a report from Variety. 20th Television, which is producing the series, is reportedly shopping the project to other streamers, with stars Claire Danes and Dakota Fanning expected to play Clinton at different stages of her life. omes as a surprise since the streamer is the home of the four-part documentary Hillary (2020), which features a lengthy sit-down interview

Exactly who would be the audience? Probably the WOKE audience that Disney loves. However, the 90+% of Disney's potential audience could care less about the ultimate political failure.

"Meet the Hitlers" would have been a better Hulu choice, attracting more viewership, than this odious "Rodham" dung smoothie.

You know, the "Rodham" show could have worked. That is, assuming that you could get Mel Brooks to re-work his script for "The Producers." I'm thinking, "Springtime for Hillary and America. Bad News for Freedom and Faith..." The investors could be all the Clinton Foundation donors... with Bill as the Producer.

The PIAPS is chronologically within five years of the superannuated dotard from Scranton. There's no point in trying to fill that hot air balloon so she'll fly again. Nobody who's not in the Clinton Foundation has any interest in any Clinton's political future, or in glorifying an especially ugly, particularly dishonest person, both inside and out. This froggy parrot is definitely deceased.

Vladimir Lenin allegedly said, "Give me four years to teach the children, and the seed I have sown shall never be uprooted."  America's leftists have taken those words to heart and, since the 1930s, have assiduously winnowed their way into America's education system.  The COVID lockdown, for all its destruction, may have ended up performing a huge service by exposing to parents just how bad the leftist toxin has grown in the last ten to fifteen years.  The sea change in parental attitudes toward education is shown in the fact that, across America, public school enrollment is collapsing.

One of the most frustrating aspects of the Biden administration — and Lord knows there are a lot of things that infuriate people about them — is the way the U.S. went from a net energy exporter to record high gas prices and a reliance on oil imported from other countries. The administration knows exactly what it’s doing. The White House has acquiesced to the environmental lobby, and the end game is a push for “green energy” that’s both infeasible and expensive, at least right now. But that hasn’t stopped the drive to punish Americans who haven’t followed the administration’s flippant advice to buy an expensive electric vehicle. In the meantime,

Netflix is seeing a sharp rise in the number of long-term customers cancelling their subscriptions, signaling a new threat to the left-wing streamer’s financial stability, according to a new study. Consumers who had been Netflix subscribers for more than three years accounted for just 5 percent of total cancelations at the start of 2022, but that figure jumped to 13 percent in the first quarter of 2022. Also in the first quarter, total cancellations spiked to 3.6 million people, compared with around 2.5 million in the previous five quarters.

Entrepreneur and business magnate Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, said the "obvious reason" for inflation in the United States is that the federal government printed way too much money that it did not have to stimulate the economy, which increased demand but supply (goods and services) could not keep up -- thus, the prices went up. Speaking at the All-In Summit by video on Monday, Musk said, "The obvious reason for inflation is that the government printed a zillion amount of more money than it had, obviously." "So, it's like the government can't just, you know, issue checks far in excess of revenue without there being inflation

He also said that Twitter has a “very far-left bias” and that he viewed his effort to buy Twitter as a “moderate” take-over to stop that bias. But he didn’t leave it there. He decided to go all-in and throw caution to the wind on Wednesday. Not only did he say that he confirm that yes he would be voting Republican, he ripped them as the party of “division and hate.” “In the past I voted Democrat, because they were (mostly)

In the final stretch of vote tabulation, McCormick had garnered a small edge over Oz until that flipped late Tuesday night. As of Wednesday morning, each candidate had won around 31 percent of the vote with roughly 95 percent of votes counted.

However, that wasn’t the only video that they dropped.

The former head of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce has been charged with lying to a mortgage lender in a growing Orange County political corruption scandal, federal authorities announced Tuesday. In a criminal complaint, the FBI accused the chamber’s former president and chief executive Todd Ament of plotting with an unnamed political consultant to funnel chamber money into Ament’s personal bank accounts by laundering it through the consultant’s public relations firm. The money was used to influence a bank’s decision to lend Ament more than $1.1 million to buy a sprawling $1.5-million home in Big Bear, the complaint says.

The company at the center of a baby formula crisis could face criminal charges, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Tuesday, as Democrats considered new government controls over the baby formula industry. “I think there might be a need for indictment,” said Mrs. Pelosi, who has realigned the House agenda to address a baby formula shortage. Democrats are also considering legislation that would give the federal government more control over the supply and distribution of formula, particularly when shortages arise. The plan would require formula companies to report inventory to the Food and Drug Administration, which could then move supplies from one state to another to fill empty shelves.

Do you know what it’s technically called when “government takes control of the means of production?” Yeah, that. This afternoon Joe Biden invoked the Defense Production Act giving Health and Human Services the legal authority to control the supplies needed for the creation of baby formula (how it is made), and the authority to determine distribution equity (who gets it). White House – “[T]he authority of the President conferred by section 101 of the Act to require performance of contracts or orders … is delegated to the Secretary of Health and Human Services with respect to all health resources, including the ingredients necessary to manufacture infant formula.”
