We’re tracking the conservative culture clash with woke Hollywood hypocrites to keep you up to date on who’s winning and who we hate. 

 Here’s what happened today:

 

Apology

Liberal “Hocus Pocus” witch Bette Midler issued an apology to West Virginians after insulting them while spewing hate at their Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin for announcing that he would not support Biden’s Build Back Better bill on Sunday.

“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,” she tweeted on Monday morning. “He sold us out. He wants us all to be just like his state, West Virginia. Poor, illiterate and strung out.”

Midler issued a follow-up tweet apologizing for the attack half an hour later. “I apologize to the good people of WVA for my last outburst. I’m just seeing red; #JoeManchin and his whole family are a criminal enterprise,” she wrote

“Is he really the best WV has to offer its own citizens? Surely there’s someone there who has the state’s interests at heart, not his own!”

 

Sexual Assault Allegations

“Sex and the City” alums Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, and Kristin Davis addressed the sexual assault and misconduct allegations against co-star Chris Noth in joint statement on Instagram. 

“We are deeply saddened to hear the allegations against Chris Noth,” they wrote in the post. “We support the women who have come forward and shared their painful experiences,” it continues. “We know it must be a very difficult thing to do and we commend them for it.”

Noth has been accused of sexually assaulting three women between 2004 and 2010. He has since been dropped by his talent agents, A3 Artists, and fired from CBS’s “The Equalizer” starring Queen Latifah. 

Noth’s “Sex and the City” character Mr. Big was killed off in the first episode of HBO’s reprisal of the series, “And Just Like That…”

Vaccination Push

The Biden Administration released a TikTok video with The Jonas Brothers to promote COVID vaccinations, which was so bad it was called “cringe” by multiple critics. 

In the post, the Joe Bros lip-sync to an audio clip from Sidetalk NYC’s popular interview with a homeless man that mispronounces Biden’s name as “Joe Byron.” 

Critics on both sides of the aisle had nothing but hate for the ridiculous video. “Sometimes I think it can never get worse and then this happens,” replied conservative pundit Samantha Marika.  

“Biden cringe watch,” wrote another, while Saurabh Sharma tacked on, “Cringe is the new state religion.”

“Why make life saving policy when you can make content, that’s what I always say,” commented liberal writer Amelia Montooth. “We live in hell,” chimed in lefty Luke Savage.   

 

Charged

Wannabe actor David Pearce, 39, who was arrested for manslaughter of Los Angeles model Christy Giles and designer Hilda Cabrales-Arzola, after allegedly dumping them unconscious at two separate area hospitals, has been charged with sexually assaulting four other vicitms. 

Pearce was slapped with two counts of forcible rape, one count of raping an unconscious or asleep person and one count of sexual penetration for a foreign object for incidents stemming from 2010, 2019, and two more in 2020.

Pearce has been held on $3.4 million bond, in addition to the $1 million bail the LAPD set for the manslaughter charges, after Giles was pronounced dead on scene and Cabrales-Arzola hung on for two weeks in a coma before passing.  

Two other men, Brandt Osborn, 42, and Michael Ansbach, 47, were arrested as accessories to manslaughter, for allegedly being present at Pearce’s apartment when the women were given drugs and overdosed, then helping Pearce drop their bodies off at two seperate hospitals.  

 

Christmas Canceled

Queen Elizabeth bucked her traditional Christmas celebrations with extended family at Sandringham estate as the omicron variant rises in the U.K.  

Prior to the pandemic, the royal family congregated at the estate to open presents on Christmas Eve and attend church services on Christmas Day at St. Mary’s Magdalene Church, followed by Christmas lunch on the property.

Buckingham Palace said the 95-year-old queen’s decision to cancel the festivities “reflects a precautionary approach” to hosting large gatherings as COVID continues to rage globally. 

 

RIP

Il Divo singer Carlos Marin died of an undisclosed illness at the age of 53 on Sunday. 

“It is with heavy hearts that we are letting you know that our friend and partner, Carlos Marin, has passed away. He will be missed by his friends, family and fans. There wiIl never be another voice or spirit like Carlos,” Il Divo said in a statement.

“For 17 years the four of us have been on this incredible journey of Il Divo together, and we will miss our dear friend. We hope and pray that his beautiful soul will rest in peace. With Love — David, Sebastien and Urs,” the band concluded.  

Marin was admitted to an ICU in England while the Simon Cowell created group was touring the United Kingdom. They were forced to postpone the tour due to his illness.  

“I am finding this so difficult to put into words how I feel right now. I am devastated Carlos Marin has passed away. He loved life. He loved performing and always had so much appreciation towards the fans who supported the group from day 1,” Cowell tweeted on Sunday. “Rest in peace Carlos. I will miss you.”
