Do you Remember when Kyle Gass's agent ALSO dropped their Conservative Clients who joked about Nancy Pelosi's Assassination? No? They didn't? Only people who joke about Donald Trump, who called for people to Murder Hilary Clinton and Gays and Drag Queens and Black People, get dropped?

Kyle Gass’s agent was Michael Greene of Greene Talent Agency. Which conservative clients has he represented? If it's true, someone should really hold his feet to the fire on this.

I tried to do some research on his client list, but the only lead I got is paywalled behind IMDb Pro: https://pro.imdb.com/company/co0079462/

Edit: Okay, so I found this interview with Michael Greene from 2020: https://www.backstage.com/magazine/article/la-agent-talks-negotiation-accountability-era-times-1446/

Describe your talent roster.
Great artists who want to use their talent to give back to the world and use their voices for positive change as they get more well-known.
Are industry-changing movements from #MeToo and Time’s Up to “Black Panther” and inclusion riders trickling down into your work?
I think it’s fantastic. Our client Tessa Thompson is very involved with Time’s Up and is using the inclusion rider.
Is the gender parity movement in terms of Hollywood paydays a good thing for you and your clients?
Sometimes, when negotiating, you have to say, “Are you paying her less because she’s a woman? Because the actor is African-American or Hispanic?” You make companies accountable for how they make their deals.
