It’s no secret that Hollywood has always leaned left — but ever since the election of President Donald Trump, it has officially gone insane.
It has gotten so bad, in fact, that conservatives in the movie industry are being persecuted and silenced.
Director Tony Tarantino – the pro-law enforcement, pro-Trump, and pro-American father of director Quentin Tarantino — has experienced this liberal sabotage firsthand. Radical leftists are keeping him from creating a film that is much larger than the big screen.
Why? It’s pro-conservative.
The film, “Prism,” is a police drama which combines factual accounts of the life of Mexican drug lord “El Chapo” Guzman with fiction, providing support to President Trump’s strict immigration policies and the need for a wall at the U.S- Mexico border.
Tony has personally pledged to donate 10% of the profits from his upcoming film “Prism” to help families of fallen, disabled, and injured law enforcement officers, and an additional 10% to those struggling with pediatric cancer.
“I don’t want, need, or desire a $250 million mansion in Hollywood hills. I’m 77-years-old, what do I need that for?” Tony said about his plan to share his personal profits from the film. “Money is a … tool, you can use it for good or evil, so I’m going to use it for good.”
On top of the donations, Tony has cast seven active law enforcement officers from Texas alone in the film for the sake of realism and to provide lucrative work to these great men and women.
Having four cousins who were NYPD cops, one who was killed on duty and another who was paralyzed on the job, Tony said he has a special place in his heart for law enforcement. But it’s created a rift between him and his son Quentin.
In October of 2015, Quentin attended a number of marches for Black Lives Matter, which Tony refers to as “a terrorist organization.”
Quentin took it even further when he referred to officers as murderers, and it left Tony mortified and furious.
Since then, Tony has distanced himself from his son and committed to doing all he can to help our nation’s finest — and that has angered Hollywood’s elite.
As a result, liberal producers have worked tirelessly to have funding pulled from the project — all because Tony supports Trump.
Earlier this year, Tony and his business manager Lurleen Hilliard spoke with John Driscoll from Wells Fargo about funding the film, and said they were told it was an amazing movie and a done deal.
Tony was moving along in the process of funding his film and all signs pointed toward “action”, until Quentin became involved.
After the bank was contacted by Quentin and liberal film producers the Weinstein brothers, the lender changed its tune. Wells Fargo reportedly decided to revoke their funding from the pro-cop “Prism.” Instead, the bank chose to help Quentin create a film glorifying the life of serial killer Charles Manson.
Driscoll has yet to respond to a request for comment.
While it’s clear which film would do greater good in America, liberal Hollywood is more interested in lining their pockets than doing the right thing.
His promise to film “Prism” in the state of Texas has also caused backlash from the Hollywood elite, who much prefer the California liberal sanctuary of Los Angeles to patriotic Texas.
Later, Tony says he experienced that very same liberal backlash again when a second production company pulled their interest in investing in the movie.
He was scheduled to meet with Cedarfair Entertainment CEO Matt Ouimet, but was revoked of that chance after social media posts expressing his support for Trump were discovered by the company.
After a weekend of Tarantino Productions sharing pro-law enforcement and pro-Trump posts, Tony was abruptly sent an email canceling their funding meeting — and the reason given speaks volumes to the political reality that has taken over Hollywood.
“I’ve done some work over the weekend with various consultants and board members and we believe that the best way we can support our police officers is by continuing to entertain their families,” the email provided by Lurleen read.
“Our brand is about ‘fun’ not politics and unfortunately, as you are well aware, this issue is politically sensitive.”
Supporting cops is politically sensitive?
When contacting, Cedarfair Entertainment declined to comment.
Of course, this is just one of the countless examples of the “tolerant” left only tolerating like-minded views.
“It’s a kick in the teeth to law enforcement,” Lurleen protested. “Money is being taken from deserving law enforcement officials who are desperate for help because of Hollywood’s fear of anything conservative.”
At the time of publishing, Wells Fargo and Cedarfair Entertainment have both declined to comment.
In the misinformation age of fake news that America finds itself, the silence of conservative voices is detrimental to American values.
Tony is a true patriot and U.S. Marine Corps veteran, trying to help his fellow Americans in any way possible and said he is “shocked at how sabotaged I’ve been for loving America.”
Even though the backlash they face is harsh, both Tony and Lurleen say they refuse to back down to the Hollywood elite.
“Prism” is ready to go into production, and they will continue to fight for the funding they need to protect and serve those who gave their lives doing just that.
