Barbra Streisand reminds the world that Trump’s lies are for the gullible — and plenty are still falling for it

Barbra Streisand just dropped another pointed critique of President Donald Trump on BlueSky on April 8, 2026, sharing a quote from Representative Jim McGovern saying, “So he’ll stop bombing Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz which was open before he started bombing Iran. Got it.” This sentiment, originally shared by McGovern on X earlier that day, cuts straight to the heart of the recent ceasefire agreement with Iran.

Streisand has consistently used her platform to vocalize her concerns about Trump and his administration. She’s been a steadfast critic, warning people about what she views as misleading claims or outright “propaganda” coming from the president. It is clear she wants people to look beyond the headlines and really question the narratives being presented.
