Barbra Streisand has supported Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, who faces conservative criticism targeting her personal life. Streisand highlighted the double standards in a post on X, questioning why women face harsher judgment for private relationships than men. “How silly that the Republicans want to have Fani Willis fired. For what? Thinking a woman can’t have a private life as well as a professional one? Men do it all the time! How ridiculous is this?” Streisand expressed.
Streisand also criticized Trump and his supporters, suggesting the attacks on Willis deflect from Trump’s alleged attempts to alter Georgia’s vote counts. This controversy underscores the broader debate on gender equality and the pressures on women in power.
Streisand’s defense of Willis emphasizes that women should not be judged for balancing personal and professional lives. It calls for fair treatment and a more supportive professional environment for all.
