We’re tracking the conservative culture clash with woke Hollywood hypocrites to keep you up to date on who’s winning and who we hate.
Here’s what happened today:
Non-Binary Bond
James Bond franchise producer Barbara Broccoli said that Daniel Craig’s 007 successor would not be a woman, but did suggest the fictional British spy could be “non-binary” in future films.
After Craig’s final turn in “No Time To Die” after five films, Broccoli said she believed that Bond would always be a man in future iterations when asked by an interviewer.
“I do, because I don’t think that we should be making films where women are playing men,” she remarked. “I think we should be making more films about women. I think Bond will be a man.”
When the interviewer suggested that he could be “Non-binary, perhaps, maybe one day?” Broccoli said, “Who knows? I mean, I think it’s open. We just have to find the right actor,” but maintained that said actor would have to be British.
“And British, as we know, can be many things,” she concluded.
Punching Back
Liberal comedian Sarah Silverman shot back at fellow liberal critics who lashed out at her after she criticized MSNBC host Joy Reid for failing to read an article before tweeting about it.
“You’re a news outlet, the truth has to matter,” Silverman wrote after Reid hysterically posted that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ plan to become the 23rd state to create a civilian guard was “fascisty bananas.”
“We’re so divided we can’t even criticize, critique the people [on] our own side. We can’t even critique anyone in your own party without punishment,” Silverman said on her podcast last week.
“One of the hosts of ‘The View’ was like, ‘What hubris for Sarah Silverman to accuse a black woman of not reading,’ Oy! Jesus H— What the f— I f***ing— I surrender! Good grief!”
“I cannot believe I need to say this, but I did not criticize Joy Ann because she’s black, but because she’s a Harvard-educated journalist with the responsibility ideally of showing the whole picture and not just a piece of a picture,” she explained.
Silverman questioned where she could get the news without a spin, so she could form her own opinion based on the facts. “I’d like to draw my own conclusions sometimes. I mean, I’m interested in other people’s thoughts, but, um, it can’t only be that.”
“And good grief!” she concluded. “You dare criticize anything in your own party, you’re the enemy. And that kind of black and white thinking on both sides…it’s such a turn-off to me: That ‘you’re either with us or against us’ kind of vibe with no room for questions or critique — it feels very not liberal to me.”
Rebuttal Ad
(SPOILER) Chris Noth proved he was alive and well in a Peloton commercial the company released, after market shares tanked when the actor’s “Just Like That…” character Mr. Big dropped dead after an intense ride in the first episode of HBO’s “Sex and the City” reboot.
In the ad, Noth and Allegra, the Peloton instructor who led him on the ride during the show, cozy up together on a couch and toast to new beginnings. “You look great,” she says to Noth, who replies: “I feel great. Shall we take another ride?”
The camera pans out to reveal two matching Peloton bikes, while Ryan Reynolds narrates the rest of the commercial.
“And just like that… the world was reminded that regular cycling stimulates and improves your heart, lungs, and circulation, reducing your risk of cardiovascular diseases,” he says in a voiceover. “Cycling strengthens your heart muscles, lowers resting pulse, and reduces blood fat levels. He’s alive.”
A company spokesperson said they were aware their product would be used in the show’s first episode, but HBO “did not disclose the larger context surrounding the scene to Peloton in advance.”

Out Of This World
“Good Morning America” anchor Michael Strahan rocketed into space on the third crewed flight of Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin, nearly a month after “Star Trek’s” William Shatner became the oldest person ever to reach the stars.
The ex-NFL player blasted into the great beyond from a launch site in West Texas on Saturday morning along with five other crewmates, including Laura Shepard Churchley, the daughter of Alan Shepard, who was the first American to go to space in 1961.
“It’s almost like an out of body experience,” Strahan said after returning to Earth. “It’s hard to even believe it happened.”
Over the weekend, @michaelstrahan took a trip … to space 🚀

Bisexual
DC Comics’ Wonder Woman came out as super gay in the latest issue of “Dark Knights of Steel.”
Thermyscira-born Princess Diana kisses her new love interest, Zala-El, after the Kryptonian learns her father was murdered, when Lois Lane arrives on the island to deliver the grave news. Both characters are expected to feature predominantly in the rest of the series.
Despite Wonder Woman’s principle love interest being WWI pilot Steve Trevor, it has been “strongly implied numerous times” that the superhero is bisexual.
