Gina Carano shared the following post regarding her thoughts on the hotly debated U.S. election.

We need to clean up the election process so we are not left feeling the way we do today.
Put laws in place that protect us against voter fraud.
Investigate every state.
Film the counting.
Flush out the fake votes.
Require ID.
Make Voter Fraud end in 2020.
Fix the system. 🇺🇸

#FireGinaCarano Trending you love to see it

She’s spread batshit conspiracy theories about covid, spread batshit conspiracy theories about election fraud, and mocked pronouns. She no longer gets the benefit of the doubt.

Get her outta here, @starwars.

Gina Carano retired from MMA following her first career loss which came at the hands of Cris Cyborg under the Strikeforce banner in 2009.

Since then Carano has found stardom in Hollywood starring in numerous blockbuster movies as well as the aforementioned Star Wars “The Mandalorian” series.

According to Carano, she almost returned to MMA after being offered $1 million to fight Ronda Rousey. However, Gina claims that UFC president Dana White pressured her into accepting the fight, and thus it did not end up happening.
