    Disney’s Hocus Pocus 2 star Bette Midler lost her cool Wednesday when a random Twitter commenter challenged her commitment to environmental activism, launching an unhinged and profane online rant in which she claimed “I bathe once a month!” Bette Midler lashed out at the sarcastic commenter who questioned whether or not the star has made any real sacrifices for her activism. “If you knew what I have done to mitigate the criminal environmental craziness in this country, you would kiss my ass,” she replied, before listing her forms of activism that include recycling, composting, and driving hybrid and electric vehicles....

    Disney’s Hocus Pocus 2 star Bette Midler spent her Thanksgiving trashing the national holiday, posting a meme that denigrated the pilgrims as “undocumented aliens from Europe.” In a tweet on Thursday, Bette Midler posted a meme showing a pilgrim and an Indian sharing a turkey in what appears to be a depiction of the first Thanksgiving in 1621. The meme’s snarky caption reads: “Celebrating the day Americans fed undocumented aliens from Europe.” Midler’s meme inaccurately depicts what actually transpired between the Plymouth colony pilgrims and the Wampanoag Indians at the first Thanksgiving feast. Historical accounts show that both the pilgrims...

    A year ago President Biden went on TV to tell Americans "you're not going to get Covid if you get vaccinated." Today, it was announced that the fully vaxxed and twice-boosted Biden has covid. White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said "his doctors describe his symptoms as very mild. He is still able to eat and sleep with the same vigor he has demonstrated since he took office in January of 2021. He is careful not to infect others—as was demonstrated by his thoughtful fist-bumping during his trip to Saudi Arabia. He continues to be an inspiration to us all."...

    Bette Midler urged moms to simply “TRY BREASTFEEDING” amid the crippling breast formula shortage — and was widely slammed for the “obtuse” and ignorant comment Friday. The 76-year-old “Beaches” star was responding to a tweet from MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle Thursday night that declared the “baby formula shortage reveals an amazing secret oligopoly” of three companies owning “90%” of the market. The Divine Ms. M shot back, “TRY BREASTFEEEDING! It’s free and available on demand,” prompting a firestorm of criticism from parents.

    Actress and singer Bette Midler minced no words in telling West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice (R) what she thought of his governing in the state, saying in a fiery tweet on Friday, “I’d say his dog’s a– would make a better Governor than him!” The Grammy Award-winning singer tweeted a photo of West Virginia's rankings in areas such as health care, the economy and infrastructure, showing the state's overall rank in the country at 47th place. The screenshot of the rankings was apparently sourced from U.S. News & World Report.

    Bette Midler has come under fire from both conservatives and liberals after she tweeted that Senator Joe Manchin ‘wants us all to be just like his state, West Virginia…poor, illiterate, and strung out.’ She infuriated thousands with her snobbish missive which said: 'What #JoeManchin, who represents a population smaller than Brooklyn, has done to the rest of America, who wants to move forward, not backward, like his state, is horrible. He sold us out. He wants us all to be just like his state, West Virginia. Poor, illiterate and strung out.' Criticism for Midler's high-handed comments quickly poured in from...

    Left-wing Hollywood star Bette Midler has insulted the people of West Virginia, describing them as “poor, illiterate and strung out” in a vicious Twitter rant aimed at Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV). She later apologized for her outburst, saying she was angry over the senator’s decision to vote against President Biden’s “Build Back Better” plan. Bette Midler lashed out at the senator in a rageful tweet on Monday. “He wants us all to be just like his state, West Virginia. Poor, illiterate and strung out,” she wrote. (The term “strung out” typically refers to drug addiction.)

    Bette Midler is calling on authorities to arrest former President Donald Trump for attempted murder, claiming Trump deliberately tried to infect Joe Biden with the coronavirus during a televised debate last year. In an impassioned tweet early Friday, Bette Midler claimed Trump knew “full well he was positive” with COVID-19 before the debate, but deliberately turned up too late to be tested. Trump then “screeched, sputtered, spit, and foamed at the mouth, hoping to infect Joe.”

    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...

    Bette Midler is praying to God to defeat the “racist criminal” President Donald Trump and help Joe Biden win on November 3. Taking inspiration from author Judy Blume’s Are You There God? It’s Me Margaret, the Hollywood actress and singer expressed her prayer in a tweet, asking the Almighty to deliver the election to Biden. “Are you there, God? It’s me, Bette. I’m so scared God. We have a fascist in the #WhiteHouse, a racist criminal who hates democracy, denies science & kills our citizens!” she wrote. “#ElectionDay is next week. What if he wins? We won’t have a country!...

    Bette Midler has walked back controversial comments she tweeted about First Lady Melania Trump during the 2020 Republican National Convention. The stage and screen icon drew sharp criticism for calling Trump — who immigrated to the United States from Slovenia — an "illegal alien" and mocking her accent during her RNC speech. "Well, all hell has broken loose because I said Melania 'still can't speak English' last night," Midler tweeted. "I was wrong to make fun of her accent. America is made up of people who speak with all kinds of accents, and they are all welcomed always." In addition...

    Broadway star Bette Midler thought it was a good idea to publicly salute housekeepers and express gratitude for her kitchen appliances — objects she claims she has gotten to know better as the coronavirus pandemic ravages the nation. “I never knew my appliances as well as I’m starting to know them,” the left-wing activist said. “So grateful to #Kenmore and #Maytag. This is no joke. I salute housekeepers around the globe, doing your best to keep your families well, safe and alive.”

    Far-left actress and activist Bette Midler suggested that President Donald Trump is inciting murderous gunmen to do his “dirty work” in an all-caps tweet referencing the heinous El Paso shooter, who took 22 lives and injured dozens more. “REMEMBER WHEN #DonaldTrump SAID HE COULD SHOOT SOMEONE ON FIFTH AVENUE AND GET AWAY WITH IT?” Midler asked her 1.7 million Twitter followers. “WELL, HE DIDN’T SHOOT SOMEONE HIMSELF, BUT HE INCITED OTHERS TO DO HIS DIRTY WORK FOR HIM, AS HE HAS DONE HIS WHOLE LIFE.”

    Actress Bette Midler, who is far from being known for her intelligence, tweeted out a racist remark which suggested some black people, who were attending a Trump rally, were being paid to be there. She topped of her remark using the racial slur “blackground.” “Look, there are African American men in this shot! How much did he pay them to be ‘blackground?’” Midler tweeted in a caption accompanying the image of the Trump rally. Midler’s tweet set off a barrage of criticism from twitter users who called her out for her blatant racism. Political commentator Dave Rubin lectured Midler about...

    Another day, another insult tweeted by the president. On Tuesday, President Donald Trump took aim at Bette Midler, who apologized on Monday for tweeting a fake Trump quote. "Washed up psycho @BetteMidler was forced to apologize for a statement she attributed to me that turned out to be totally fabricated by her in order to make 'your great president' look really bad. She got caught, just like the Fake News Media gets caught. A sick scammer!" he wrote. On Monday, Midler tweeted an apology for a previous statement she had erroneously attributed to Trump.

    Bette Midler sparks controversy. Just a month after she caught fire for asserting that “women are the n-word of the world,” Bette Midler is right back in the middle of controversy after making remarks about Melania Trump’s semi-nude British GQ shoot from 2000. Taking from the flight-themed element of the steamy shoot, Midler, tweeted out: The dry cleaning bill for the upholstery on Air Force One must be insane.” Flipping Trump’s FLOTUS title, Midler added the hashtag “#FLOTITS.” Naturally, the joke wasn’t received as such by many with several users calling out Midler for her comments, accusing her “body shaming”...
