Hollywood is in big trouble, and everybody can feel it now. The panic is real, and it’s setting in. Jobs are drying up, and the people inside the Tinsel Town machine are finally having to admit that something really big is going very wrong. Yes, some of this panic is about streaming, economics, COVID fallout, and production fleeing to other states and countries, thanks to Gavin Newsom. But let’s not play dumb here. Hollywood also did this to itself. The movie industry made a very deliberate choice to stop entertaining people and start lecturing them. When Trump came down that escalator, Hollywood went bonkers.

Here's the truth for Hollywood and all media: Amateurs make better video entertainment, and write more interesting postings for the internet than any of you.

We're content watching movies from the 1940s to 1970s. There are so many good ones! Hollywood lost its way years ago.

The CGI stuff has gotten over the top but the real problem is lousy, lazy scripts. It will be OK for a few lines then become trite and banal. We can remember and quote great lines from older movies ("We will always have Paris") but very few stay with us from any current movie (I'm your huckleberry") is maybe an exception.

Star Fleet Academy is the latest, most glaring, example of Hollywood spitting in the face of the audience. They have no right to act surprised when people throw up their hands in disgust at DEI lecturing from leftist termites and just walk away. I've gone back to watching older shows like the Stargate franchise instead of the garbage being produced today.

Media in general has poisoned itself with their arrogant hatred. We have seen the results in liberal news implosions of viewership, advertising, and finances. Now we are seeing the other side of the coin, Hollyweird and entertainment is also going under and with all that also goes a considerable amount of Leftist voice that helped prop up Leftist politicians. Add in the fact that government cutbacks have cut out lots of Leftist government workers, both directly and through NGOs and another wing of Leftism is collapsing. Leftist education is also fading. Applications are down and many are recognizing that dumbed down Leftist degrees aren't worth all that much. People are fleeing Leftist California and New York. Leftism has become blatantly toxic and the check is coming due for Leftist mental illness and gross incompetence. It's been deeply entrenched in America so it is going to take time to die. We also have to worry about aspects of a 5th column in Republican/Conservative spaces. But good things are happening.

Hollywood liberals have been taking pot shots at middle America for years now, right along with their greasy Democrat politicians. We've been accused of intolerance by people who never tire of telling us how "hateful" we (supposedly) are because we want our immigration laws enforced and those who came here to game our system by claiming asylum, sent home. Between Hollywood "stars" and radical left democrat, socialist, marxist and communist politicians, the American people have been treated as if WE are the problem. Both Hollywood and our lefty politicians have put their contempt for middle America on display for far too long. They need to get over themselves and learn a little humility.

This could have been written years ago. The really strange part is that Hollyweird keeps pumping millions of dollars into woke movies. How many flops must occur until they wake up and smell the coffee? I guess they are being propped up by oversea revenue.

During oral arguments at the Supreme Court on Wednesday, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson made her case for why the children of foreign tourists ought to qualify for birthright American citizenship if they are born in the United States while their parents are on vacation. The case, known as Trump v. Barbara, will decide whether or not President Donald Trump’s executive order to end birthright citizenship for the U.S.-born children of illegal aliens and foreign tourists, often referred to as “anchor babies,” is constitutional. During an exchange with the ACLU’s Cecillia Wang, who is arguing that the order is unconstitutional, Jackson seemingly made a case for why birthright citizenship should extend to foreigners

A local television news anchor in Alabama sparked outrage online for signing off a recent newscast by quoting the founder of an Islamic fundamentalist group blamed for inspiring some of the world’s most lethal terrorist organizations. Ashonti Ford, 38, was wrapping up her 6 p.m. broadcast this past Thursday on Birmingham’s ABC 33/40 WBMA-LD when she cited a quote attributed to the late Hassan al-Banna, the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood. “Before we go, a quote from the founder of the Islamic Brotherhood: ‘The quieter you become, the more you’re able to hear,’” she said as she closed the March 26 newscast on the Sinclair-owned station.

California gubernatorial hopeful Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., took at least six trips to Doha backed by Qatar-linked sponsors from 2020 through 2024, extending a pattern of foreign-funded travel that previously drew criticism, according to House filings reviewed by Fox News Digital. The disclosures show Swalwell returned to Qatar repeatedly over multiple years, even after he was slammed for taking an $84,000 trip with a few other lawmakers to the Gulf emirate in 2021 sponsored by the U.S.-Qatar Business Council. In addition to that trip, filings from the House of Representatives clerk show Swalwell also went to Doha in 2020, twice in 2022, once in 2023 and once in 2024,

Newly resurfaced videos reveal Republican Louisiana Rep. Julia Letlow promised to create a diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) office at the university where she worked and ensure more “women of color” were hired into leadership roles. Letlow publicly claims to oppose “woke ideology,” and has been endorsed by President Donald Trump in her primary Senate race against incumbent Bill Cassidy. However, a 2020 video shows Letlow participating in a panel interview as a semifinalist for the University of Louisiana, Monroe’s presidential search, where she detailed plans to lead diversity measures and ensure more women, especially ‘women of color,’ would be hired for senior leadership roles. “One of the first things

If it seems like every day, or at a minimum every week, brings news of another scam within the health care sector, you wouldn’t be wrong. From duplicate enrollments to “coverage” of dead people to the recent growth of skin substitutes, examples of waste, fraud, and abuse abound. Recent stories have drawn attention to abuses regarding treatments for autism. The Minnesota fraud scandal brought this issue to the fore, but the problems go well beyond the Gopher State. A recent Wall Street Journal report and investigations by the Department of Health and Human Services’ inspector general show the widespread nature of the problem, which, in addition to outright fraud, also encompasses

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi floated the possibility on Tuesday that Republicans might try to hack into election systems to change the outcome of the 2026 midterm elections. That’s rich coming from a leader in the Democratic Party who chastised the GOP for questioning the integrity of the 2020 presidential election. You’ll recall that Democratic election officials in 2020, without the approval of their state legislatures, made all kinds of last-minute election rule and procedural changes regarding mail-in ballots and due dates, among other matters, in key swing states like Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin,

Some conservative-leaning justices had hard questions for Solicitor General John Sauer on Wednesday when he argued to reverse nearly 130 years of precedent on birthright citizenship, as President Donald Trump was in attendance. The case involves Trump’s executive order instructing agencies not to recognize citizenship for U.S.-born children without at least one parent who is an American citizen. Birthright citizenship is the view that anyone born in the United States—even a child of illegal immigrants—is automatically a U.S. citizen. Sauer noted during Wednesday’s oral arguments that China has 500 birth tourism companies that bring women to the United States to give birth and return to China

The Trump administration has gutted a Justice Department program that helped many thousands of illegal migrants fight the department’s own deportation cases. “It’s going to cause serious problems within the immigration system,” Danielle DeWinter, the legal director of the pro-migration Immigration Project in Illinois, said. Her group has used the Justice Department’s program to get advice and accreditation when fighting 948 cases where the federal government was trying to deport migrants. In this latest salvo to combat illegal migration, the DOJ has effectively shut down the Recognition and Accreditation program, created in 1983, which is part of the Justice Department’s Executive Office for Immigration Review,

Supreme Court Justices from across the ideological spectrum pummeled a lawyer for the Trump administration with biting questions during oral arguments Wednesday over the president’s executive order on birthright citizenship. While it wasn’t fully clear which way the high court will go in the landmark case, Republican-appointed justices made clear they were far from a lock for the administration — all while President Trump was in the room as the first sitting president in US history to observe oral arguments in person. “You obviously put a lot of weight on ‘subject to the jurisdiction thereof.’ But the examples you give to support that strike me as very quirky,”

A new federal rule could significantly raise wages for foreign workers and ignite a broader fight over the future of high-skilled immigration. The U.S. Department of Labor has opened a 60-day public comment period on a proposed rule that would increase required wages for employers hiring foreign workers through programs such as H-1B visas and permanent labor certifications. The proposal, published in the Federal Register, would adjust how “prevailing wages” are calculated, raising the minimum salary levels employers must pay foreign workers to better align with U.S. worker wages, according to the agency. As of Monday, March 30, 52 public comments had been submitted. The Dallas Express was unable to review those comments

Young GOP associations across the country have gotten caught up in all manner of scandals, from racist group chats to Nazi salutes. Earlier this month, the College Republicans of America shared on X that they were “proud to welcome” 23-year-old Brigham Young University student Kai Schwemmer as national political director. The appointment immediately drew scrutiny due to Schwemmer’s past affiliation with Nick Fuentes, the controversial far-right streamer popular with Gen Z and Gen Alpha boys.

Among the pub-table strategists and commentators in Europe talking about Iran you often hear the phrase, “This is not our war.” That’s a view as wrong as it is strategically unwise. Of course it is our war. It is far more our war than America’s. The infiltration of European societies by Islamist networks is further advanced and more acute here than in America. (And solidarity with Israel, whose very existence is under threat, ought to be far stronger in Germany than in the United States.)

The recent massive U.S. strike near Iran’s central city of Isfahan likely sought to render Tehran’s remaining highly enriched uranium stockpile inaccessible by burying it deep underground — a strategy that would negate the need for a prolonged and risky U.S. ground operation to extract the material, according to an Israeli military analyst writing Tuesday. Writing in Ynet on Tuesday, Israeli military analyst Ron Ben-Yishai — a veteran Yediot Ahronot correspondent and Israel Prize recipient — assessed that the strike reflects a deliberate U.S. effort to neutralize Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile by entombing it beneath rock, soil, and collapsed tunnel infrastructure rather than attempting to remove it by force.
