The White House has heralded Star Wars Day with an eye-catching AI-generated image of a buff-looking President Trump wielding a red lightsaber and characterizing him as a Sith slayer. Trump, 78, looked stoic in the image, with bulging biceps and the American flag, as well as bald eagles behind him, in the stunning social media post by the White House. “Happy May the 4th to all, including the Radical Left Lunatics who are fighting so hard to … bring Sith Lords, Murderers, Drug Lords, Dangerous Prisoners, & well known MS-13 Gang Members, back into our...

Just some fun for us old people who remember the special thing that happened for the Universe during summer 1977.

It doesn’t take a genius to read between the lines of Disney’s latest political stunt. Disney’s latest Star Wars spin-off series Andor has made an less-than-subtle jab at the conservative right by featuring a scene of “Imperial Officer” trying to rape “undocumented migrant.” While the incident obviously takes place within the Star Wars universe, it is clearly intended to mirror President Trump’s policy of ending the flow of illegal immigration. The Hollywood Reporter details: Yet even by Andor standards, a scene from the second season is leaving fans shocked: An Imperial officer tries to violently rape a Rebel fugitive, Bix...

<p>In one of the best examples of "sleep in the bed you made" moments you'll ever see, Star Wars actor and voice of the Joker, Mark Hamill, decided to promote his new film on Bluesky.

The Kremlin has accused President Trump of attempting to erode Russia and China’s nuclear potential with his plan for an Iron Dome missile defence system. The programme was “yet another confirmation of the US focus on turning space into a scene of armed confrontation and deployment of weapons”, Maria Zakharova, the chief spokeswoman of the Russian foreign ministry, said. Trump issued an executive order on Monday mandating a process to develop an “Iron Dome for America”, a reference to the aerial defence shield used by Israel. Zakharova said that this implied “a sharp intensification of the US national missile defence...

By now, many Americans are familiar with leftists’ unhealthy obsession with forcing transgenderism onto adults and children alike. But as it turns out, these delusions about biological sex are also popping up in a galaxy far, far away. In their latest act of left-wing activism, The Walt Disney Company’s “Star Wars” brand is giving fans a look at its first-ever trans-identifying clone trooper, named “Sister.” According to Breitbart News, the character was originally introduced in a young adult novel two years ago but is now getting his first visual appearance in a new “Star Wars” encyclopedia.

A recent episode of the woke Star Wars show went overboard with its anti-male, pro-feminism rhetoric by including a scene where lesbians use Force to immaculately conceive babies.

It's early, so all the precincts haven't reported yet, but the early returns of the gayest Star Wars ever ain't great. And by that, I mean Star Wars: The Acolyte is tracking to be – by FAR – the most hated of the entire franchise. That's right. Worse than Last Jedi. Worse than Solo. Worse than Attack of the Clones. According to Rotten Tomatoes, through two episodes, the newest Disney+ series – which made waves earlier this week when it was deemed the gayest Star Wars yet during an interview with creator Leslye Headland – has an abysmal 31% approval...
