Wednesday Update: Actress Killed In Hit-And-Run Accident, Musician Plans To File Revenge Porn Lawsuit, Seat On Bezos’ Space Flight Auctions For Mega-Millions 

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:

Gone Too Soon

 

Actress Lisa Banes, who notably starred in 1988’s “Cocktail” beside Tom Cruise and the 2014 Ben Affleck thriller “Gone Girl,” died at the age of 65 after being involved in a hit-and-run accident in New York City.

Banes had been in critical condition at Mount Sinai Morningside Hospital since she was struck by a motorized scooter while crossing the street on June 4th. The driver fled the scene and the police have not made an arrest.  

“We are heartsick over Lisa’s tragic and senseless passing. She was a woman of great spirit, kindness and generosity and dedicated to her work, whether on stage or in front of a camera and even more so to her wife, family and friends. We were blessed to have had her in our lives,” her representative announced on Tuesday.

Day In Court

 

Harvey Weinstein lost his battle to remain in a New York prison after a judge ruled that he will be extradited to Los Angeles to be tried on multiple sexual assault charges. His legal team argued that he should stand trial virtually due to medical treatment he is receiving, but Weinstein’s petition was denied and he will be transferred to California in mid-July.

The disgraced movie mogul is already serving a 23-year sentence but faces an additional 140 years in prison if convicted on the 11 counts of rape and sexual battery that victims claim took place between 2004 and 2013.  

 

Expensive Flight

 

Jeff Bezos is blasting off into space on July 20, and one lucky bidder won a seat next to him on his rocket ship. The former Amazon CEO’s space venture Blue Origin auctioned off a seat on its inaugural crewed flight for an astounding $28 million.  

Bezos, his brother Mark, and the auction winner will be launched 340,000 feet in the New Shepard rocket, where they will hover in zero gravity for three minutes before returning to the ground. The proceeds from the auction will be donated to Blue Origin’s nonprofit, Club for the Future, which supports children aspiring towards STEM careers.  

 

Mega Lawsuit

 

The embattled Megadeth bassist David Ellefsonis filing a revenge porn suit against the person who posted a video of him mutually pleasuring himself with a 19-year-old fan, causing him to get booted from the thrash metal band he founded.  

The Instagram post and the claim that “David Ellefson of Megadeth is a pedophile” went viral on May 9, and though he released a statement from the woman in the video saying was of age and the encounter was consensual, the band let him go four days later. 

“The actions in the video were between two consenting adults and were recorded without my knowledge. I am working with Scottsdale Police Department in their investigation into charges regarding revenge pornography to be filed against the person who posted this video,” Ellefson said in the statement.  

He plans on filing a defamation suit against the Instagram poster when they are identified.  

 

Disgruntled Viewers

 

“The View” co-host Joy Behar blasted Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s apology for comparing wearing masks to labeling Jews with Star of David badges during the Holocaust.  

“I don’t buy any of it. I think she’s full of it. She compares Democrats to Nazis, by the way. So, she says she’s apologizing, but then she says Democrats are Nazis, which shows you that she has no concept of what Nazis actually did,” Behar commented. “And so I think that her apology is as empty as her head, I think she is only doing it to avoid censure, and she needs to be driven out of Congress as soon as possible, in my opinion.”

Co-host Sunny Hostin echoed Behar’s remarks. “She’s been comparing mask measures, vaccination measures, to the Holocaust. And I do believe that she believes that,” Hostin parroted. “I do believe that she wants to make that comparison and continues to want to make that comparison, but she’s trying to head off this censure vote. That’s what this is about.”

 

Officer Lancaster

 

Rod Stewart’s wife Penny Lancaster has become a police officer in London. The 50-year-old television personality was inspired to change careers after she filmed “Famous and Fighting Crime,” where celebrities ride along with law enforcement officials in the UK.  

Lancaster said her new job is “rewarding in so many ways,” and Stewart did not try to keep her from joining the force.  

“It is dangerous, but the police are the public, the public are the police,” she said. “There’s women and men alike … brothers, sisters, uncles, aunties, we’re just regular people but we put that uniform on to help protect,” she commented.

I also compare Democrats to Nazis. They believe in the same things, complete federal government control, disarming the citizens, murder, one party rule and restricting free speech.

At last. Looks like Hollywood’s loudest blowhard and anti-2nd Amendment radical will receive his just deserts. Recall Weinstein’s boast that he’d produce a film to make the NRA “wish they weren’t alive.”

Weinstein went to prison. Epstein went to prison. Weiner went to prison. Cosby went to prison. Yet the left still only makes jokes about all of Bill Clinton’s assaults. FYI they date all the way back to 1969 – when Bill Clinton was accused by Eileen Wellstone at Oxford in England. Bill Clinton was well acquainted with all of the above and also with Clinton and Democrat mega-donor Ed Buck – who is in prison related to 2 gay black men found dead at his L.A. home and for methamphetamine distribution. Isn’t it funny how you never heard a peep out of Maxine Waters regarding the fates of these two men in her own damned district? She sure raised a lot of hell over Jussie Smollett’s faked/staged beating all the way across the country from the people she supposedly represents.

Someone needs to inform the Joyless Behemoth that it is only the power-mad, power-hungry, intolerant, racist, tyrannical Democrats that are, in fact, operating exactly like the Nazis did. This “woman” needs to break open a few history books.

I’ve been telling people for the last several years that the Democrats, “woke” idiots, antifa and BLM have been following exactly the Nazi party tactics of the 1930’s. All of it sounds like Joseph Goebbels Act II.
