Bette Midler raised eyebrows on Sunday when she asked people to imagine what would have happened if Hillary Clinton had claimed the 2016 election was stolen.
&#8220;Can you imagine what would have happened if Hillary Clinton had claimed the election was stolen?&#8221; Midler posted on X Sunday evening.

Can you imagine what would have happened if Hillary Clinton had claimed the election was stolen?
&mdash; bettemidler (@BetteMidler) <a href="https://twitter.com/BetteMidler/status/1792323638223352170?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 19, 2024</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
The remark, seemingly out of the blue from the legendary singer and actress whose career in Hollywood and on Broadway has spanned more than five decades, immediately attracted criticism as well as a fact-check.
Critics pointed out that Clinton is on the record questioning the results of the election she lost to former President Donald Trump.
“There was a widespread understanding that this election [in 2016] was not on the level,” Clinton <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/news/hillary-clinton-maintains-2016-election-was-not-on-the-level-we-still-dont-know-what-really-happened/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.nationalreview.com/news/hillary-clinton-maintains-2016-election-was-not-on-the-level-we-still-dont-know-what-really-happened/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1716310654531000&amp;usg=AOvVaw1TVL8Vaz1kYd5zc1vYUP3N">said</a> in October 2020 during an interview on The Atlantic’s politics podcast, The Ticket. “We still don’t know what really happened.”
“There’s just a lot that I think will be revealed. History will discover,” Clinton continued. “But you don’t win by 3 million votes and have all this other shenanigans and stuff going on and not come away with an idea like, ‘Whoa, something’s not right here.’ That was a deep sense of unease.”
Just two months earlier, in August 2020, Clinton said Joe Biden, then the Democratic presidential nominee, should not concede the upcoming 2020 election “under any circumstances” because she believed “this is going to drag out, and eventually I do believe he will win if we don’t give an inch, and if we are as focused and relentless as the other side is.”
During the same interview, the former secretary of state also called Trump a &#8220;puppet of [Russian President Vladimir] Putin&#8221; and said he &#8220;did not have the temperament to be president.&#8221;
Social media users were quick to point out Clinton&#8217;s comments to Midler.
&#8220;She did for like years,&#8221; one X user <a href="https://x.com/Howlingmutant0/status/1792340530539770182" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://twitchy.com/amy/2024/05/19/bette-midler-asks-us-to-imagine-what-would-happen-if-hilary-clinton-had-claimed-election-was-stolen-n2396412&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1716310654531000&amp;usg=AOvVaw0XBfRrvy9BW85fS4SQvVqB">wrote</a>.

&#8220;Trump&#8217;s getting us all used to the idea that he can pardon himself for his part in Russian interference in the election. The colossal balls on this guy! How can he even walk without clanking?&#8221; Midler posted in 2018.
Trump has repeatedly claimed the 2020 election was &#8220;stolen&#8221; due to ballot fraud exacerbated by an increase in mail-in voting during the pandemic.
In recent months, however, Trump and Republicans have encouraged voters to take advantage of mail-in voting when necessary.
Last month, Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/112300168902589359" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/112300168902589359&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1716310654531000&amp;usg=AOvVaw0ftF6pZibdV0EZCFFbAZ-7">told</a> supporters that “ABSENTEE VOTING, EARLY VOTING, AND ELECTION DAY VOTING ARE ALL GOOD OPTIONS.”

Leftist activist and actress <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/bette-midler">Bette Midler</a> had a tantrum on <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/twitter">Twitter</a> after she lost her blue checkmark Thursday as part of a planned update to the social media platform.
“Elon, deciding that I’m not me, I’m a fake, &amp; obliging ME, who has contributed mightily to your platform, (at least until you “tweaked the algorithm &amp; tanked my metrics”) to pay monthly because you don’t have enough money &amp; you’re humiliated b/c everyone thinks you’re a pathetic douche, is the funniest thing you’ve ever done. Let that sink in. Sorry to hear about your rocket,” she <a href="https://twitter.com/BetteMidler/status/1649218711348473856">wrote</a>, addressing billionaire Twitter owner <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/elon-musk">Elon Musk</a>. 
The “Hocus Pocus” <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/celebrities">actress</a> had already complained about the development earlier in the day.
“Elon took my blue check away! I’m unverified! After all these years and thousands of tweets and free content, this worm has the nerve to de-certify me,” she wrote. That message went viral, earning 1.9 million views and many mocking replies.

“Sorry for your loss, life is tough,” the Hodge twins <a href="https://twitter.com/hodgetwins/status/1649364396899008513">wrote</a>.
“And you are&#8230;?” Ron Coleman <a href="https://twitter.com/RonColeman/status/1649182920282710016">replied</a>. Another user replied to Coleman with, &#8220;I didn&#8217;t even know she was still alive, much less on Twitter.&#8221;
“If you had any self awareness, this tweet would embarrass you,” a third person <a href="https://twitter.com/tweettruth2me/status/1649206995566600194">said</a>.
Following the update, only government accounts were eligible for free verification on Twitter. Individuals and businesses now need to pay the social media platform $8 per month to be part of the Twitter Blue program, which also permits the edit feature on tweets.

Meme maker Carpe Donktum started a joke GoFundMe for Midler to raise funds for her verification. “In light of the recent Blue Check tragedy. A GoFundMe has been set up for one of the most tragic victims, [Bette Midler],” user CasuallyGreg <a href="https://twitter.com/CasuallyGreg/status/1649386803374485505">wrote</a>. “Please donate what you can to support this poor unfortunate woman.”
As of Friday morning, the <a href="https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-a-witch-get-verified">campaign</a> had raised $160.
While almost all celebrities lost their blue checkmarks with the update, Musk made sure that three prominent figures who publicly promised they would never subscribe to Twitter Blue kept their verified status despite not paying for it. 
NBA star LeBron James, horror author Stephen King, and “Star Trek” actor William Shatner are all still verified on Twitter. 
King tweeted on Thursday, “My Twitter account says I’ve subscribed to Twitter Blue. I haven’t. My Twitter account says I’ve given a phone number. I haven’t.”
Musk replied by saying, “You’re welcome namaste.” The world’s richest man later <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1649211324344201218">confirmed</a> he had kept blue checks for “just Shatner, LeBron and King.”

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/bette-midler" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bette Midler</a> lost her temper and grossed out the internet this week over a snarky retort to her tweet calling for more use of solar energy.
The “Rose” singer and actress tweeted out a graphic with a painting of the sun and the message: “If God wanted us to have free, unlimited clean energy, he would have given us a giant fusion reactor in the sky.” The pie-in-the-sky post prompted a hypocrisy roast from one Twitter user that enraged the entertainer, who turned 77 on Thursday.
“Bette is so worried about this that she abandoned her house, car, stopped flying and gave up on all modern conveniences and now lives in a solar powered hut in the forest,” tweeted a user who goes by Bookshelf Q. Battler. “What a great example she set for the rest of us. Three cheers for Bette!”

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Midler, a hardcore leftist with a Twitter following of over 2 million, didn’t appreciate the retort and replied with a two-Tweet retort.
“If you knew what I have done to mitigate the criminal environmental craziness in this country, you would kiss my ass,” she wrote. “I have done my part, and I have done YOUR part. I have done geothermal, solar, hybrid, electric cars, composting, recycling, I bathe once a month! F**k you!”
“In addition, I have saved parks, built parks, cleaned parks, sent kids to schools, taught them how to play music, honored nature by giving people actual LAND to grow their own food and find peace and serenity in nature,” she added. “WHAT HAVE YOU DONE BESIDES SLAG ME?”
Midler’s fans reacted with a vengeance, citing the former star’s long record of activism. But others seemed unable to get past the revelation that Midler bathes just a dozen times per year.
“What a stank witch,” <a href="https://twitter.com/PoppaWoody16/status/1598810177922375692?s=20&amp;t=B2wr-4godlqmsLZM8j_FqQ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote one</a>.
“Bette Midler says “I bathe (=bath) once a month,” wrote another.  “Well, each to his own. Personally I prefer to shower. Every day.”
Last month, Midler <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/stay-classy-bette-midler-slammed-after-suggesting-maga-women-move-to-iran" target="_blank" rel="noopener">blasted women who support former President Trump</a> ahead of the midterm elections.
 “Hey MAGA women, if you want a country run by men and religion, move to Iran,” <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/bette-midler-gets-attacked-as-a-terf-after-saying-women-are-being-erased-due-to-terms-like-birthing-people-people-with-vaginas" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Midler’s</a> tweet read.
Twitter users reacted angrily, calling the “Hocus Pocus” star out as a “bully,” “hateful,” “sexist,” and more.

Bette Midler got slammed by social media users Friday after she suggested that MAGA women should move to Iran if they want a country run by &#8220;men and religion.&#8221;
The <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/bette-midler" target="_blank" rel="noopener">76-year-old</a> activist and actress shared the post on <a href="https://twitter.com/BetteMidler/status/1588517688795602944?s=20&amp;t=ddLkN7eEHlITxU_E8glmrg" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Twitter</a> with her 2.1 million followers ahead of the 2022 midterm elections in which polls show that Republicans are expected to make gains against the Democrats.
&#8220;Hey MAGA women, if you want a country run by men and religion, move to Iran,&#8221; <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/bette-midler-gets-attacked-as-a-terf-after-saying-women-are-being-erased-due-to-terms-like-birthing-people-people-with-vaginas" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Midler&#8217;s</a> tweet read.
Reading through the comments, many people on Twitter were not happy with it and called the &#8220;Hocus Pocus&#8221; star out as a &#8220;bully,&#8221; &#8220;hateful,&#8221; &#8220;sexist,&#8221; and more.

&#8220;You truly have no idea how women are treated over there so your comparison is disgusting,&#8221; one person tweeted. &#8220;My husband did 3 tours in the middle east, he can shed some light on the atrocities that occur to women.&#8221;
&#8220;Hey Bette if you want bully people into voting the way you want you feel free to move,&#8221; another shared.
Another wrote, &#8220;Uh. Considering the Iranian women fighting and risking their lives to change things I feel like this is a really bad take.&#8221;
&#8220;Bette, I&#8217;ve been a fan of yours since I was a little girl, and I still am, but these tweets are so alienating,&#8221; another person shared. &#8220;Do you ever even try to consider why people might believe differently than you do? Maybe try having a conversation with one of these &#8216;maga women&#8217; you are sneering at.&#8221;
One person tweeted, &#8220;Guess you haven’t been paying attention! A lot of maga women are running for office. So how about you moving to Iran. They feel the same way you do about people who disagree politically. You would fit in.&#8221;
One commenter simply stated, &#8220;Stay classy.&#8221;
&#8220;If this were the other team, it&#8217;d be denounced as sexist, racist, xenophobic, Islamophobic, etc,&#8221; another person explained.
Another noted that the actress, who proudly calls herself a feminist, should be supporting Iran women.
&#8220;Hey Feminist, why aren&#8217;t you supporting the women of Iran?&#8221; the person wrote. &#8220;Those are truly oppressed women, yet they are standing alone.&#8221;
&#8220;Iran is based on Islamic principles,&#8221; another concluded. &#8220;MAGA wants to keep our country based on Christian principles. There is a wide difference between these principles. No comparison.&#8221;

Bette Midler was slammed on Wednesday after she promoted fake news about Republican Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake from a parody website.
The <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/bette-midler">76-year-old actress</a> shared a screenshot from the &#8220;About Me&#8221; section of the satire site mocking Lake, describing her as embracing &#8220;far-right nationalism and the forceful suppression of any opposition.&#8221; The page went on to say Lake &#8220;strongly&#8221; opposes &#8220;democracy.&#8221;
&#8220;Heeere&#8217;s #KariLake, running for Gov of #Arizona, spewer of Q-anon conspiracies and all around nasty nut job!&#8221; Midler <a href="https://twitter.com/BetteMidler/status/1587833141061992449?s=20&amp;t=ly-5F15y-OYuNEE8w8uuqw">tweeted</a> to her 2.1 million followers. &#8220;Don&#8217;t let the cute package fool you! She&#8217;s lethal!&#8221;
https://twitter.com/BetteMidler/status/1587833141061992449?s=20&#038;t=ly-5F15y-OYuNEE8w8uuqw
Reading through the comments, many people noted that the site included a disclaimer: &#8220;This Website Is Parody &amp; Proudly Created By Toby Morton.&#8221;
&#8220;It&#8217;s lifted from a fake/parody site,&#8221; one person wrote to Midler.
Another shared, &#8220;This is Fake. Badly done Bette.&#8221;
One Twitter follower wrote, &#8220;As awful as she is, you&#8217;re sharing a fake webpage &#8211; and doing that only blunts efforts to argue against her.&#8221;
While another tweeted, &#8220;This website is a parody account , it shows this at the bottom of the page . Do bette[r].&#8221;
&#8220;Don&#8217;t share fake info./memes,&#8221; one person wrote. &#8220;The real stuff is bad enough on its own!&#8221;
Another shared, &#8220;This is obviously a parody web site. You are not doing any favors by posting this as if these were Kari Lake&#8217;s own words.&#8221;
While another person brought it back to the actress blasting the GOP for reportedly spreading misinformation, noting Midler did just that.
&#8220;Typical liberal hypocrite, spends how many tweets yelling about GOP spreading lies at election time, but then you take a screen grab of a site that even acknowledges it is parody, a screen grab to circumvent potential filters,&#8221; the person wrote. &#8220;You&#8217;re trash, &amp; the worst actress in HP series #fact.&#8221;
At the time of this publication, the &#8220;Beaches&#8221; star had yet to respond to the numerous tweets calling out that she was promoting a <a href="https://www.karilake2022.com/home">fake website</a>, and the post was still up.

Satire

Some prominent right-leaning minds can no longer tweet to their heart’s content.
Think <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jordan-peterson-id-rather-die-than-delete-truthful-tweet-for-cancel-creeps">Jordan Peterson</a>, <a href="https://www.thewrap.com/people-who-have-been-banned-from-twitter/">Mike Lindell, James O’Keefe, and Gen. Michael Flynn</a>. “Don’t Burn This Country” author Dave Rubin nearly joined this list, but decided to delete an “offending” tweet to rejoin the platform.
The Babylon Bee is similarly blocked <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/twitter-responds-to-babylon-bees-appeal-keeps-them-locked-out-of-their-account?%3Futm_source=twitter&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_campaign=dwtwitter">from tweeting its faux news headlines</a>.
Twitter says each violated the platform’s community standards, and the claims are dubious for some of the aforementioned names.
Yet another group is allowed to thrive on the social media platform. They say incendiary things, spread fake news like wildfire, and promote physical violence against their political foes. And they live to tweet another day.
Meet the progressive stars who can say virtually anything they like without consequences from Twitter. Some are Hollywood heavy hitters. Others exist on the periphery of show business but still have outside influence.
They’re all secure in the knowledge that they won’t collide with Twitter’s censorious overlords, and if they do they’ll never face a full banishment. Why? It’s hard to deny the obvious. Each share the “approved” opinions that align with Twitter’s brain trust.
<h4>Bette Midler</h4>
The Divine Miss M. may be 76, but she’s forever young on Twitter. She uses the platform relentlessly, sharing her hard-Left views with her 2.1M followers. And, along the way, she cheers on physical violence against conservatives.
Perhaps the most egregious examples are the two times that Midler applauded the man who hospitalized Sen. Rand Paul in 2017. Paul’s neighbor, Rene Boucher, physically assaulted the Kentucky Republican, breaking six of his ribs and causing him to have <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-11-08/rand-paul-says-he-suffered-six-broken-ribs-in-attack-at-his-home">part of one lung removed</a>.
“Where’s Rand Paul’s neighbor when we need him,” <a href="https://www.wdrb.com/news/actress-bette-midler-facing-criticism-over-tweet-about-kentucky-u-s-sen-rand-paul/article_1d0ca3bf-d7c7-5a1a-b4f4-63d28177fe7c.html">Midler tweeted in 2018</a>.
Even the Left has been offended by some of her content, as she has also shared <a href="https://hornet.com/stories/bette-midler-homophobic-comment-2/">homophobic messages on Twitter</a>, in an attempt to smite President Donald Trump.
<h4>Tom Arnold</h4>
The comic actor doesn’t command the stage like he did while married to Roseanne Barr. He does still work the comedy club circuit and snags occasional gigs, like his ill-fated VICE show “The Hunt for the Trump Tapes.”
He also weaponizes his Twitter account in some of the nastiest ways possible.
He’s used racially-charged language against <a href="https://twitchy.com/gregp-3534/2018/04/22/tom-arnold-goes-on-unhinged-rant-over-candace-owen-tweets-tells-her-suck-racist-dk/">both The Daily Wire’s Candace Owens</a> and the politically engaged duo <a href="https://www.bet.com/article/upvuar/tom-arnold-makes-racist-remarks-toward-black-conservatives">Diamond and Silk</a>. The “True Lies” star also lashed out at Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, suggesting <a href="https://www.hollywoodintoto.com/tom-arnold-kavanaugh-pedophile/">he’s a pedophile</a> without a molecule of proof to back it up.
He’s the rare far-Left celebrity who felt a smidge of Twitter’s wrath. The platform allegedly removed one of his tweets <a href="https://twitchy.com/samj-3930/2019/10/18/he-is-one-sick-puppy-tom-arnolds-veiled-threat-against-trump-so-malicious-and-vile-twitter-yanked-it/">suggesting someone assassinate President Trump</a>.
<h4>Ron Perlman</h4>
The “Sons of Anarchy” standout spent four solid years attacking President Trump with every tweet he could muster.
The Trump years evidently brought out the worst in the veteran character actor. He once said he’d risk <a href="https://www.hollywoodintoto.com/ron-perlman-trump-twitter-resistance/">death to bring down President Trump</a>, which could have been interpreted as a veiled threat of violence.
Along the way, Perlman showed just how malicious he could be on social media. The “Beauty and the Beast” alum once celebrated the death of Libertarian philanthropist David Koch and wished his <a href="https://twitchy.com/sarahd-313035/2019/08/26/ron-perlman-dials-up-the-drama-after-twitter-temporarily-suspends-him-for-this-totally-innocuous-tweet-referencing-the-koch-brothers/">brother would soon follow him to the grave</a>, a message so ugly even Team Twitter cried foul.
Sometimes Perlman is so unhinged he deletes his own messages. He took a wild swipe at the Supreme Court following a concealed carry verdict, tweeting, “The latest Supreme Court decision on firearms neglects to say the one thing that they actually meant to say; for whites only.”
He quickly <a href="https://twitchy.com/brettt-3136/2022/06/23/ron-perlman-says-supreme-courts-concealed-carry-decision-neglects-to-say-for-whites-only/">erased his missive</a>.
<h4>Ellen Barkin</h4>
The “Animal Kingdom” star joined the ranks of celebrities <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2018/10/01/ellen-barkin-trump-should-be-removed-not-just-from-office/">wishing death</a> on a sitting president in 2018. She also said disgraced comic Louis C.K. should be <a href="https://www.hollywoodintoto.com/tnt-no-comment-ellen-barkin/">raped and shot</a> on the social media platform. Oddly she received no pushback from Twitter, though she did eventually remove the tweets. 
<h4>Alec Baldwin</h4>
The “30 Rock” star may be in trouble for the accidental shooting death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of “Rust.” However, he is yet to be punished for any of his incendiary Twitter missives.
Baldwin once fantasized about <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/alec-baldwin-trump-beaten-rodney-king-concede">President Trump getting pepper sprayed</a> and knelt on until he ran out of oxygen. He also threatened to <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/alec-baldwin-vengeance-against-twitter-user">“find” a fellow Twitter</a> user after they had brief words on the platform.
The versatile actor previously <a href="https://www.latimes.com/entertainment/gossip/la-et-mg-alec-baldwin-twitter-rant-meltdown-gandolfini-funeral-20130628-story.html">slung homophobic slurs on the site</a>, and he compared President <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/alec-baldwin-trump-hitler-twitter-republicans">Trump to Hitler</a> in another scorching hot and hateful message.
<h4>David Cross</h4>
Mr. Never Nude himself can play dirty on social media. Witness his response to President Joe Biden’s call for unity shortly after his election victory. <a href="https://twitter.com/davidcrosss/status/1343053684347908097?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1343053684347908097%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;amp%3Bref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.breitbart.com%2Fentertainment%2F2020%2F12%2F29%2Fdavid-cross-defends-saying-i-want-blood-after-biden-called-for-healing-i-was-referring-to-menstrual-blood%2F">“F*** that, I want Blood</a>,” the “Arrested Development” alum cried. That tweet, of course, is still up.
<h4>Joss Whedon</h4>
The “Avengers” director’s career is in purgatory after his bullying behavior went viral in 2021. His <a href="https://www.hollywoodintoto.com/joss-whedon-hate-media-twitter/">rage-tweeting</a>, however, didn’t so much as dent his professional career, nor boot him off of Twitter.
Whedon once mocked the appearance of cancer-stricken teens to score a cheap shot against Rep. Paul Ryan. That’s on top of his wish that Ryan get anally gored by a rhino until he died. He also <a href="https://www.hollywoodintoto.com/joss-whedon-wishes-death-trump/">called for President Trump’s death</a> – a liberal celebrity’s de facto take on the Commander in Chief.
Whedon’s Twitter account is still active, but he stopped sending new messages in 2020.

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/bette-midler">Bette Midler</a> is responding to all the backlash about her alleged “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/transgender">transphobic</a>” comments from earlier this week, defending her original tweet and doubling down on why she wrote it.
“PEOPLE OF THE WORLD! My <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/twitter">tweet</a> about women was a response to this fascinating and well written piece in the NYT on July 3rd. There was no intention of anything exclusionary or transphobic in what I said;  it wasn’t about that,” Midler <a href="https://twitter.com/BetteMidler/status/1544470451476467715">shared</a>.
“It was about the same old sh** women – ALL WOMEN – have been putting up with since the cavemen. Even then, men got top billing. But seriously, folks, if anyone who read that tweet thinks I have anything but love for any marginalized people, go to Wikipedia and type in my name,” she continued in a <a href="https://twitter.com/BetteMidler/status/1544470452889853952">follow-up</a>.
“I’ve fought for marginalized people for as long as I can remember. Still, if you want to dismiss my 60 years of proven love and concern over a tweet that accidentally angered the very people I have always supported and adored, so be it,” Midler <a href="https://twitter.com/BetteMidler/status/1544470454005538816">continued</a>. 
“But the truth is, Democracy is slipping through our fingers! I’m all in on trying to save Democracy for ALL PEOPLE. We must unite, because, in case you haven’t been paying attention, divided we will definitely fall,” she <a href="https://twitter.com/BetteMidler/status/1544470455167422464">concluded</a>. 
The linked article led to a New York Times opinion piece titled, “The Far Right and Far Left Agree on One Thing: Women Don’t Count.” The <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2022/07/03/opinion/the-far-right-and-far-left-agree-on-one-thing-women-dont-count.html?smid=url-share">article</a> blames conservatives for stripping women’s rights by overturning Roe v. Wade, but it doesn’t let liberals off the hook. Instead, the author accuses radical leftists of disrespecting women in a different way. 
“A number of academics, uber-progressives, transgender activists, civil liberties organizations and medical organizations are working toward an opposite end: to deny women their humanity, reducing them to a mix of body parts and gender stereotypes,” writer Pamela Paul argued. She does not agree with language which eliminates the word women or their essential roles, including new terms such as “menstruators” and “bodies with vaginas.”
Midler seems to agree with that assessment. The original tweet that <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/bette-midler-gets-attacked-as-a-terf-after-saying-women-are-being-erased-due-to-terms-like-birthing-people-people-with-vaginas">got her into trouble</a> said, “WOMEN OF THE WORLD! We are being stripped of our rights over our bodies, our lives and even of our name!”
“They don’t call us ‘women’ anymore; they call us ‘birthing people’ or ‘menstruators,’ and even ‘people with vaginas!’ Don’t let them erase you! Every human on earth owes you,” the tweet read.
Critics were quick to call out Midler for what they called trans-exclusionary language, comparing her to another famous TERF (trans-exclusionary radical feminist), J.K. Rowling. Other followers agreed with Miller and applauded her for speaking out on the highly controversial topic.

‘It Wasn’t About That’: Bette Midler Responds To Criticism About Alleged ‘Transphobic’ Tweet

Bette Midler Responds To Criticism About Alleged 'Transphobic' Tweet

Transgender

Singer Bette Midler landed in hot water with the far left — for the second time in two days — when her attempt to insult the United States Supreme Court backfired in spectacular fashion.
Midler has been decrying the Court&#8217;s 6-3 <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/aoc-is-getting-her-nails-done-as-an-act-of-reclamation-after-dobbs-decision/">decision</a> in Dobbs v. Jackson Women&#8217;s Health Organization — which included a 5-4 decision <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/five-reasons-to-celebrate-the-overturning-of-roe/">overturning</a> landmark abortion cases Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey — since it was handed down in late June, and Tuesday was no exception.
The tweet that prompted the backlash was a group photo of the court members, with all but the three liberal justices — Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, and the since-retired Stephen Breyer — edited to look as though they were part of the Taliban, the medieval Islamic fundamentalist group back in charge of Afghanistan after President Joe Biden&#8217;s disastrous pullout.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<a href="https://t.co/rfW8ql7J1p">pic.twitter.com/rfW8ql7J1p</a>
&mdash; bettemidler (@BetteMidler) <a href="https://twitter.com/BetteMidler/status/1544409932883181569?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 5, 2022</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Midler was not the only one to draw that comparison — singer Barbra Streisand referred to the Court as &#8220;the American Taliban&#8221; after the decision was handed down, and singer Patti LuPone asked, &#8220;What is the difference between the Taliban and the Christian Right? I&#8217;ll now add the Supreme Court. America is on her knees.&#8221;
But shortly after the &#8220;Hocus Pocus&#8221; star fired off her tweet, critics came for her, asking why she couldn&#8217;t complain about the Court without dragging Muslims into the conversation. One was Marc Lamont Hill, a Temple University professor who was fired by CNN 2018 amid widespread accusations of anti-semitism.
&#8220;Wow. Bette Midler is on a roll this week. From transphobic to Islamophobic,&#8221; <a href="https://twitter.com/marclamonthill/status/1544501375815630848">tweeted</a> Hill, who gave a speech to the UN in which he accused Israel of &#8220;ethnic cleansing&#8221; and called for an end to Israel &#8220;from the river to the sea,&#8221; a phrase borrowed from terrorist Hamas leaders.
Other hard-core leftists objected to evoking the Taliban as a metaphor for extremism, despite the Afghan group&#8217;s well-known policies of brutality and oppression of women.
Author Laila Lalami <a href="https://twitter.com/LailaLalami/status/1544473865945878528">added</a>, &#8220;Can&#8217;t you people ever fight extremism without being Islamophobic? Muslims aren&#8217;t your rhetorical tool.&#8221;
&#8220;Your friendly local Muslim &amp; lawyer AGAIN reminding you that Islam permits abortion for a variety of reasons &amp; keeps that healthcare decision between a woman &amp; her loved ones &amp; doctor,&#8221; Qasim Rashid <a href="https://twitter.com/QasimRashid/status/1544473097180528640">tweeted</a>. &#8220;Stop using our faith as your punchline. Call this for what it is—100% ‘Christian’ nationalism.&#8221;
&#8220;It&#8217;s Christian Nationalism. This is homegrown. No need to denigrate Islam and Muslims for this extremism. Stop making us the pinata and bogeyman please. Also, traditionally, Sharia allows for abortion up to the first 4 months and makes exceptions for the woman&#8217;s health,&#8221; author Wajahat Ali <a href="https://twitter.com/WajahatAli/status/1544469888521101314">objected</a>.
&#8220;Bette Midler was like, &#8216;well I did transphobia yesterday, so maybe I’ll go with racism today,'&#8221; one Twitter user <a href="https://twitter.com/jenny2x4/status/1544466808081551364">commented</a>.
&#8220;Can y’all find a way to critique Christian nationalism without being islamophobic?&#8221; another <a href="https://twitter.com/Danez_Smif/status/1544450257697865728">added</a>. &#8220;Bette, it’s tired. If you can’t find a way to be &#8216;liberal&#8217; without throwing minorities under the bus, you are doing it very wrong. Give it a rest.&#8221;
Midler was <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/bette-midler-gets-attacked-as-a-terf-after-saying-women-are-being-erased-due-to-terms-like-birthing-people-people-with-vaginas/">labeled a TERF</a> (Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist) on Monday for calling on women to push back against being erased by woke terms like &#8220;birthing person.&#8221;

Bette Midler found herself on the other side of the woke brigade Monday after she tweeted out that women were being erased due to terms like &#8220;birthing people&#8221; and &#8220;people with vaginas.&#8221;
The <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/ban-viagra-bette-midler-goes-on-rant-about-how-men-must-have-a-limp-d-if-pregnancy-is-gods-will">76-year-old</a> actress&#8217; name started <a href="https://twitter.com/BetteMidler/status/1543979948611981313?s=20&amp;t=L94h3hX_5ENQ-x9zR-5-VQ">trending on Twitter</a> on the Fourth of July after she posted <a href="https://twitter.com/BetteMidler/status/1541445229999521793?s=20&amp;t=YZerzvVCifmJOHOkBQ5bbw">another rant</a> about how women were &#8220;being stripped of their rights&#8221; following Roe V. Wade being overturned. In a 6-3 decision, the United States Supreme Court voted to uphold a Mississippi law, and that ruling overturned Roe.
&#8220;WOMEN OF THE WORLD! &#8221; Milder&#8217;s post read. &#8220;We are being stripped of our rights over our bodies, our lives and even of our name!&#8221;
&#8220;They don&#8217;t call us &#8216;women&#8217; anymore; they call us &#8216;birthing people&#8217; or &#8216;menstruators,&#8217; and even &#8216;people with vaginas!'&#8221; she added. &#8220;Don&#8217;t let them erase you! Every human on earth owes you!&#8221;

However, using terms that the woke mob finds not inclusive, like &#8220;women,&#8221; landed her in a host of trouble, and she was labeled &#8220;right wing&#8221; and a &#8220;TERF,&#8221; a derogatory acronym used by some leftists that stands for transgender-exclusionary radical feminists.
&#8220;Bette when we use those words we&#8217;re including trans men and non-binary people who are also impacted by this new ruling,&#8221; one user tweeted. &#8220;We&#8217;re not erasing women— we&#8217;re including those who are forgotten.&#8221;
&#8220;Since there&#8217;s women who reject the word woman no other women can use it?&#8221; another wrote. &#8220;Sounds a lot like what the patriarchy would say….&#8221;
Another tweeted, &#8220;Very disappointed to see anti-trans TERF speak from such an icon, and someone who has such a devoted fan base amongst LGBTQIA+ folx.&#8221;
&#8220;Bette, I love you, but you sound like you host a news show on Fox with this tweet,&#8221; one person concluded.
While another wrote, &#8220;Congratulations Bette, you&#8217;re now right wing.&#8221;

Others Twitter accounts, like Libs of TikTok, were quick to ask exactly who are the one&#8217;s trying to erase the term women, pointing out that such language is from the far-left of the political spectrum which the &#8220;Hocus Pocus&#8221; star typically represents.

Abortion activist Bette Midler went on a rant on Twitter in response to Roe V. Wade being overturned, arguing that if pregnancy is &#8220;God&#8217;s will,&#8221; so is a &#8220;limp d***.&#8221;
The <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/come-armed-gun-control-advocate-bette-midler-sends-out-tweet-to-protest-nra-conference">76-year-old actress</a> has been very active on social media lately as she&#8217;s raged over the United States Supreme Court&#8217;s decision to overturn the landmark 1973 ruling as a result of the decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women&#8217;s Health Organization. The ruling recognizes that there is no constitutional right to an abortion and returns the issue to the states to pass abortion legislation, as <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/victory-pro-life-leaders-react-to-overturn-of-roe-v-wade">The Daily Wire</a> previously reported.
In one of her latest posts she said the medical prescription Viagra, which is used to treat men with erectile dysfunction, should be banned now that the right of abortion has been left up to the state a person lives in.
&#8220;Time to ban Viagra,&#8221; Midler <a href="https://twitter.com/BetteMidler/status/1541445229999521793?s=20&amp;t=YZerzvVCifmJOHOkBQ5bbw">tweeted</a> to her more than 2 million followers recently. &#8220;Because if pregnancy is &#8216;God&#8217;s Will,&#8217; then so is your limp dick.&#8221;

Shortly after news surfaced about the court&#8217;s decision that overturned Roe V. Wade, the superstar actress <a href="https://twitter.com/BetteMidler/status/1540343311378030593?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">tweeted</a> that America needed to &#8220;WakeUp.&#8221;

&#8220;The Bill is called HR 8; it has been sitting there for two years!

‘Come Armed’: Gun Control Advocate Bette Midler Sends Out Tweet To Protest NRA Conference

Gun Control

Texas

Uvalde

Actress Bette Midler shared a close-up snap of a woman&#8217;s chest wearing a yellow top that had a message slamming men as pigs and referencing how &#8220;80% of woman&#8221; are reportedly &#8220;against marriage,&#8221; then asking why that was the case.
The <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/try-breastfeeding-its-free-bette-midler-annihilated-for-snarky-tweet-amid-baby-formula-shortage">76-year-old</a> actress shared the eyebrow-raising post on <a href="https://twitter.com/BetteMidler/status/1529199622991716353?s=20&amp;t=Xcq6Jr-B12ez3fAKbuqKfg">Twitter</a> on Tuesday to her millions of followers. The post contained a message that harkened back to an old saying — &#8220;Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?&#8221; — before taking a swipe at men.
&#8220;Couldn&#8217;t help myself,&#8221; Midler tweeted, along with a close-up photo of a woman wearing a fitted yellow tank top with the message written across it in black.

&#8220;For all those men who say, &#8216;Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?’” the shirt read. &#8220;Here&#8217;s an update for you. Nowadays, 80% of women are against marriage. Why?&#8221;
&#8220;Because women realize it&#8217;s not worth buying an entire pig just to get a little sausage,&#8221; the shirt message added, a possible reference to the male anatomy.
The &#8220;Beaches&#8221; star often takes to social media to share her random and sometimes unhinged thoughts. The last one that ended up drawing a backlash against the actress pertained to the nationwide shortage of baby formula. At the time, she told women to &#8220;try breastfeeding.”
&#8220;TRY BREASTFEEEDING!&#8221; the &#8220;Hocus Pocus&#8221; star tweeted to her millions of followers. &#8220;It&#8217;s free and available on demand.&#8221;

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Both her supporters and critics came out and slammed the actress, hitting back with how ignorant the tweet made her sound, as <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/try-breastfeeding-its-free-bette-midler-annihilated-for-snarky-tweet-amid-baby-formula-shortage">reported</a> previously by The Daily Wire. Conservatives and liberals agreed Midler&#8217;s comments were wrong. Some of her followers even suggested that actress’ account must&#8217;ve been hacked.
But the &#8220;Big Business&#8221; star appeared to double-down in a <a href="https://twitter.com/BetteMidler/status/1524953683271761940?s=20&amp;t=-5Y7DcdEObiz_kwYrhl2NQ">follow-up tweet</a> a short time later, &#8220;People are piling on because of former tweet. No shame if you can&#8217;t breastfeed, but if you can &amp; are somehow convinced that your own milk isn&#8217;t as good as a &#8216;scientifically researched product,&#8217; that&#8217;s something else again. The monopoly news is news to me, tho, no lie. #WETNURSES.&#8221;
