Barbra Streisand Says She ‘Can’t Live In This Country’ If This Happens

The well-known singer and performer Barbra Streisand reiterated her intention to leave the country in the event that Donald Trump wins the presidency once more.

The vocal Democrat, who actively supported Hillary Clinton in 2016, voiced her distaste for living in the nation under Trump’s presidency in an interview with Stephen Colbert on “The Late Show.”

When Colbert questioned Streisand about where she may go if she were to leave, she casually said, “Probably England, I like England.”

This statement is reminiscent to one she made prior to the 2016 election, in which she declared she would think about moving to Canada or another nation in the event that Trump won.

Like a number of other celebrities, Streisand chose to stay in the United States after the 2016 election, despite her prior promise to depart in the event that Trump was elected president.

Several celebrities, including Amy Schumer, Bryan Cranston, and Cher, made comparable vows yet continued to reside in the nation following Trump’s election.

Trump has frequently been criticised by Streisand, who has dubbed him the “Liar in Chief” and the “Groper in Chief.” She has called Trump “so stupid” and “so ill-informed,” expressing her profound regret in his “heartbreaking” election triumph in 2016.

With “Walls,” her album from 2018, Streisand persisted in her criticism of Trump.

The sharp lyrics of the song “Don’t Lie to Me” questioned the falsification of facts and the worldwide fallout from such activities.

Barbra Streisand described Trump’s presidency in 2021 as “four years in a black hole,” highlighting the toll that disinformation has on people, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.

She emphasised the need of honesty and called on leaders to be open and honest, saying, “Tell people the truth; they can deal with it.”

Streisand’s public discourse on politics and societal concerns is shaped by her uncompromising candour.

Mom Leaves Note on “Disrespectful” Son’s Door – What She Wrote is Taking the Internet by Storm

Most adults know that being a grown-up isn’t as simple as it seems to a child.

Kids might see things like food in the fridge, a comfy home, and unlimited internet, but they often don’t understand the work it takes to have those things. One mom decided to teach her disrespectful son a funny, “real world” lesson to show him that “nothing comes for free.”

In 2015, Heidi Johnson was struggling with her defiant 13-year-old son, Aaron. She explained that Aaron “wanted the benefits of growing up without the responsibility that comes with it.”

Aaron had started making a little bit of money as a YouTuber and thought he didn’t have to follow his mom’s rules about doing his homework. He even stormed out of her room, saying he was a “free person” because he was “making money.”

In response to his behavior, the single mother wrote a “tough love” letter to Aaron and shared it on Facebook. Almost ten years later, her post has gone viral again.

Johnson’s note begins, “Since you seem to have forgotten that you’re only 13, and I’m the parent, and that you don’t want to be controlled, I guess you need a lesson in independence.” In what she called a “roommate contract,” she laid out the rules Aaron would need to follow if he wanted to act like an adult.

She continued, “Since you’re earning money now, it should be easier for you to pay back for everything I’ve bought for you.” Johnson added that if he wanted things like his lamp, lightbulbs, or access to the internet, he’d have to pay his part of the costs.

In her letter, Johnson listed the conditions Aaron would need to follow, including paying for rent and utilities. She also expected him to cook his own meals and help with regular cleaning around the house.

Johnson signed the letter, “Love, Mom.”

Taking Action

Living in Venice, Italy, Johnson shared that when Aaron saw the letter taped to his door, he crumpled it up, threw it on the floor, and stormed out of their apartment.

Johnson felt he just needed some time to think—and she used that time to start taking back some of the things from his room.

Once Aaron had time to think, he asked his mom what he could do to start re-earning his privileges. He even gathered more items from his room and handed them to her, asking how he could earn them back.

Johnson explained that this was never about making him pay her back; it was about teaching him to understand the cost of things. Aaron quickly realized he couldn’t afford rent, utilities, or food on his own.

Online commenters supported her approach, praising her for her creative discipline style. One person wrote, “Great job! Nothing in the agreement is harsh, but it will teach him a lesson he’ll remember.” Another said, “You’re an amazing mom for giving your son a chance to learn and grow.” A third comment added, “Bravo for being a parent and not just a maid.”

Some people accused her of publicly shaming her son. In response, Johnson wrote another post saying she was “not ashamed” of what she did.

“A teenager will push their limits,” she explained. “They’re in a stage where they’re stepping into adulthood but still rooted in childhood… I can’t send this child into college or the workforce with an attitude of ‘I’ll get to it when I feel like it’ when a boss asks him to get a job done. That’s how the real world works.”

Johnson ended by saying, “Nothing in life is free. Somewhere, someone is making a sacrifice.”
