Bette Midler will receive one of the country’s highest cultural distinctions when The Kennedy Center in Washington D.C., hands out its annual awards, elevating the anti-conservative singer-actress into the national pantheon of the country’s top performing artists.
Midler has been active as an anti-conservative activist, using her massive social media following to launch attacks on Republicans, conservative figures, and the United States itself.
She has even championed physical violence against certain conservative politicians, including Donald Trump and Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY).
Midler’s attacks on conservatives have been nasty and profane in nature.
Last year, she told then-White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany to “go f### yourself” while urging Joe Biden to kick then-President Donald Trump “in the nuts.”
She again championed physical violence when she praised the neighbor who physically assaulted Sen. Rand Paul .
In one of her most notorious insults, Midler made fun of then-First Lady Melania Trump’s accent, calling her “an illegal alien” who “can’t speak English.”
Midler endorsed New York billionaire Michael Bloomberg’s bid for the White House last year before eventually backing Biden.
The Kennedy Center received $25 million in stimulus funding last year as part of the federal government’s $2 trillion coronavirus relief bill.

I think the NEW criteria for the Kennedy Center Awards is based on how much you hate Trump.
I hope she chokes.
They didn’t enough Kennedy’s.
She needs an introduction to Ahmad Umar and his buch of rascals before she makes more comparisons.
The Kennedy Center should be ashamed of itself for this.
Bigmouth won a Bigmouth Award ?
The Kennedy Center is TDS-unhinged.
Pelosi must be so jealous. Pelosi is the RBG of the Center and probably will die before she gets her bought and paid for award.
GAY ALERT! GAY ALERT! Homos are celebrating !!!!
Surprised it took so long.
Nothing but a Glorified, OVERRATED, campy Yenta, thinking that doing EVERYTHING OVER THE TOP - singing, acting,saying outrageous double entendre jokes, just being herself on talk shows, and more - is “talent”. No matter how how overrated her singing is, no matter how many roles she undeservedly gets,no matter how much the media glorifies her,proclaiming her great, We see right thru it.
Weird. I’ve not really been aware of her politics. Here’s what it means:
I got rid of Barbra Streisand’s records several decades ago and still refuse to listen to any of her stuff, yet I have a lot of Bette Midler on vinyl. I was just listening to it a few days ago.
Maybe I need to be more consistent.
Number One Fag Hag.
Started out playing the bath houses, when Barry Manilow was her piano player, bet Barry enjoyed that.
“I think the NEW criteria for the Kennedy Center Awards is based on how much you hate Trump.”
Maybe that and also the great truth that our country’s greatness is due largely to the greatness of our entertainers.
She was famous for showing one of her boobs on her HBO concert special in the mid 1970’s and her first hit record was a remake of the Andrews Sisters Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy.
Awwww, too bad. Thought she was dead.
