Sydney Sweeney has one word for the notion that women are any less vicious than men when it comes to rising to the top of Hollywood's eat-or-be-eaten food chain. Fake!The "Anyone But You" actress recently called BS on the industry's cloying "women empowering other women" narrative. Sweeney should know. Back in April, veteran producer Carol Baum launched an out-of-nowhere attack on the up-and-comer. 'All of it is fake and a front for all the other s**t that they say behind everyone’s back.'"There’s an actress who everybody loves now: Sydney Sweeney. I don’t get Sydney Sweeney," Baum griped. "I was watching on the plane Sydney Sweeney’s movie [‘Anyone but You’] because I wanted to watch it. I wanted to know who she is and why everybody’s talking about her. I watched this unwatchable movie — sorry to people who love this ... romantic comedy where they hate each other."Baum threatBaum — whose credits include “Dead Ringers,” “Father of the Bride,” and “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” and who also works as an adjunct professor at the University of Southern California's School of Cinematic Arts — added, "I said to my class, ‘Explain this girl to me. She’s not pretty, she can’t act. Why is she so hot?’ Nobody had an answer.""How sad that a woman in the position to share her expertise and experience chooses instead to attack another woman," Sweeney's rep responded."If that’s what she’s learned in her decades in the industry and feels is appropriate to teach to her students, that’s shameful. To unjustly disparage a fellow female producer speaks volumes about Ms. Baum’s character."Claws outSweeney opened up about Baum's catty conniption in a recent interview with Vanity Fair: "It’s very disheartening to see women tear other women down, especially when women who are successful in other avenues of their industry see younger talent working really hard — hoping to achieve whatever dreams that they may have — and then trying to bash and discredit any work that they’ve done," the 27-year-old Sweeney responded. "This entire industry, all people say is 'women empowering other women.' None of it’s happening," Sweeney continued. "All of it is fake and a front for all the other s**t that they say behind everyone’s back."High school with moneySweeney is not the only star to feel Tinseltown's mean girl vibes. Anne Hathaway and Jennifer Lawrence have also commented on the tendency for female performers to become a target when they're at their professional peak.Sweeney thinks she knows why. "I’ve read that our entire lives, we were raised — and it’s a generational problem — to believe only one woman can be at the top. There’s one woman who can get the man. There’s one woman who can be, I don’t know, anything.""So then all the others feel like they have to fight each other or take that one woman down instead of being like, Let’s all lift each other up," Sweeney concluded. "I’m still trying to figure it out. I’m just trying my best over here. Why am I getting attacked?"As Blaze News reported in August 2022, liberals attempted to cancel Sweeney because guests at her mother's 60th birthday party were wearing "Make America Great Again" inspired hats and a "blue lives matter" shirt.The celebrity actress brushed off the outrage, "You guys, this is wild. An innocent celebration for my mom's milestone 60th birthday has turned into an absurd political statement, which was not the intention. Please stop making assumptions. Much love to everyone and Happy Birthday Mom!"Like Blaze News? Bypass the censors, sign up for our newsletters, and get stories like this direct to your inbox. Sign up here!

Every single one of Donald Trump’s Cabinet picks has been followed by immediate wailing and gnashing of teeth on the left, but the award for the most controversial pick goes to Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.), who is nominated to the role of attorney general. Steve Deace, however, is “here for it” — not just for the appointment of Gaetz but for the full panel Trump has chosen to be in his administration and their collective mentality to “[bring] this whole thing down.” “This is Hulk smash,” says Deace in reference to Trump’s appointees. However, “this Cabinet appointment of Gaetz is the biggest middle-finger appointment in the history of the U.S. presidency,” he says. While Steve isn’t sure if Gaetz is “a righteous person,” as “there are serious [sex trafficking] allegations against [him],” he also knows that this DOJ has no qualms about “indicting Republicans or conservatives,” especially the anti-establishment type. If the allegations against Gaetz, who is undeniably a firebrand, are true, why hasn’t he been indicted already? Steve says that there are two possibilities here: One, “this Department of Justice knowingly allowed a creeper to sit in a congressional seat for the last few years.” Or two, “they don’t have the goods, and they’re smearing [Gaetz].” However, Steve says there’s “a way we get clarity.” “Let’s have a confirmation hearing. … Why don’t we just call witnesses, [Gaetz] calls his, people testify, and let’s find out?” he proposes. Some may think that a hearing is impossible now that Gaetz has resigned his congressional seat and Congress no longer has jurisdiction over him, but Steve says the investigators can “still release their report.” “Are you guys just sick of being told stuff but never being shown stuff?” Steve asks in frustration. “I sure as hell am.” To hear more, watch the episode above.

Whoopi Goldberg said on "The View" earlier this week during a discussion about the economy in relation to the presidential election that "I appreciate that people are having a hard time. Me too. I work for a living."Uh-oh. But she wasn't done. The outspoken co-host of the far-left talk show added stridently that "if I had all the money in the world, I would not be here, OK? So I'm a working person, you know? ... I know it's hard out there."'She made it seem like she's struggling and that she has no choice but to ... really pick herself up every day and just head over to work a lot of manual labor.'In regard to Goldberg's 2016 contract extension with "The View," Variety reported that "she will continue to earn her current annual salary, which is in the $5 to $6 million range."Not incidentally, when her heavy-duty Manhattan shift is over, Goldberg reportedly retreats across the bridge to a tony Northern New Jersey community, where her nearly 10,000-square-foot "Georgian Colonial-style residence" with eight bedrooms awaits her. Goldberg reportedly bought the place in 2009 for a cool $2.8 million.So as you might expect, head-shaking outrage erupted once everyday people picked up on Goldberg's pronouncement about her "working person" plight.But perhaps the most eye-opening responses came from Ana Kasparian and Cenk Uygur, hosts of the far-left show "The Young Turks." Neither of them were pleased with Goldberg's words, either."Whoopi, you can't say ... you work for a living and then 'I know your pain' et cetera as if you're a person who isn't spectacularly wealthy," Uygur reacted. "You have to at least acknowledge, 'Look, guys, I get it. I'm wealthy, and I used to be poor, but I haven't been poor in a long, long time. But, you know, here's the ways that I can relate.' Just be honest about it, no problem, right? But when you make it seem like you're barely getting by and you're worried about your grandkids ..."Kasparian added, "She made it seem like she's struggling and that she has no choice but to ... really pick herself up every day and just head over to work a lot of manual labor. ... The way she carried herself in that segment was ridiculous. ... She's not a working-class American."You can watch the Young Turks' reaction to Goldberg's "I work for a living" commentary here.Like Blaze News?

New York City Mayor Eric Adams slammed his fellow Democrats for focusing too much of their campaign messaging on fascism fears rather than speaking to "working-class people issues."In a Friday appearance on ABC News' "The View," Adams told the left-leaning panel that the Democratic Party lost the election because it failed to prioritize addressing issues that impact everyday Americans.'What are we doing for everyday people in the country?'"What you saw in this city and this election, when you saw a shift in the city and the state becoming redder, is because we stopped talking about working-class people issues," Adams stated. "What moms and pops are afraid, 'I can't pay my college tuition. The rent is too damn high. Health care is too expensive.' We stopped talking to everyday New Yorkers and Americans."Adams explained that working-class Americans are far more concerned about affordability than fascism. He seemed to criticize Democrats for campaigning on comparing President-elect Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler."When I'm in the street talking to them, they're not asking me, 'Tell me about fascism,'" Adams claimed. "They're talking about finance. They're not talking about Hitler; they're talking about housing. We need to talk to everyday, working-class people, and we stopped doing that."Co-host Joy Behar pushed back on Adams' comments, arguing that Democrats did address those issues."Part of the business of campaigning is getting your message out and being clear with your message," Adams replied. "Even the experts in their party were saying, 'Get back to the message.' What are we doing for everyday people in the country? And this same thing happened in 2022. When I got elected in 2022, I stated that, 'Listen, we need to be talking about crime in this country.' They ignored it. We lost the election. During 2023, I said we had to deal with this migrant-asylum issue. It was on the top one or two issues in the country. We ignored it. We have to go back and talk to those issues that people are worried about."Since April 2022, more than 210,000 foreign nationals have arrived in New York City. The city's taxpayers have spent over $2.3 billion to provide accommodations for the migrants.Adams announced last week that the city will stop supplying migrant arrivals with prepaid debit cards at the end of the year, Blaze News previously reported.Like Blaze News?
