Social media erupts after Harris introduces ‘mob boss’ accent to attack Trump: ‘Total cringe’
Former vice president and failed presidential candidate Kamala Harris was roasted online Friday after she introduced another accent while trying to impersonate President Donald Trump as a “mob boss.”
“You know, the way that he’s thinking of foreign policy, it seems, is when he talks about America First, it’s to withdraw from these relationships and these connections,” Harris said while arguing that the administration has lost sight of international cooperation as a means to address regional conflict.
“And then he kind of acts like a mob boss. So, then he’s kind of like, ‘Oh, well, you know, you take Eastern Europe, and I’ll take the Western Hemisphere. And then you over there, you, you get Asia, and we’ll just divide it up,’ right?”
Harris made her comments while speaking at a forum with the National Action Network, which was founded by the controversial civil rights activist Al Sharpton.

Almost immediately, the mimicry prompted criticism online.
“JUST IN: CRINGE,” Eric Daugherty, a right-leaning social media personality, said in a post to X.
“Add ‘mafia boss’ to Kamala Harris’ list of embarrassing accents,” a Republican campaign account said in its own note.

A former Republican staffer for Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, included her Friday moment alongside a series of other impersonations.
“Kamala Harris just debuted a new accent: Mob boss. Despite a childhood in Berkeley, California and Montreal, Canada, Kamala has what she thinks is a Detroit accent,” Steve Guest wrote.
“Kamala Harris’ ‘Trump Impersonation’ is the worst thing I have ever seen,” conservative influencer Benny Johnson said. “Total cringe.”
Harris’ remarks come as Trump attempts to broker peace negotiations with Iran while also inviting European allies to put pressure on Tehran to reopen waterways vital to international energy trade.

Trump blasted allies on social media for not joining the U.S. in its conflict with Iran.
“NATO WASN’T THERE WHEN WE NEEDED THEM, AND THEY WON’T BE THERE IF WE NEED THEM AGAIN,” Trump said in a post to Truth Social on Wednesday.
Earlier this week, the president reached a tentative two-week ceasefire agreement with Iran despite uncertainty about its exact terms.
Iran has presented a list of 10 demands that appear to contradict the U.S.’s own set of expectations for ending the conflict.
In a post to state media, Iran demanded the lifting of all sanctions on Iran, continued control over key waterways in the region, U.S. military withdrawal from the Middle East and a suspension of hostilities against Iran and its allies, among other demands.
The two countries are set to continue negotiations in Pakistan on Saturday.

‘Charlie’s Angels’ star Cheryl Ladd defied producers with ‘tiniest bikini ever’ to make her point
Cheryl Ladd found herself slipping into so many bikinis on the set of “Charlie’s Angels” that she decided to take matters into her own hands.
In 1977, the actress took on the role of Kris Munroe in the iconic series after producer Aaron Spelling chose her to play Farrah Fawcett’s younger sister. The series, which followed the adventures of a glamorous detective agency, starred Jaclyn Smith, David Doyle, Kate Jackson and Fawcett, who was leaving that year. The show aired until 1981.
“He liked me in a bikini,” Ladd, 74, said about Spelling at the Paley Center’s PaleyFest L.A. panel celebrating the 50th anniversary of “Charlie’s Angels.”

The star admitted she wore so many two-pieces in scenes that “it was starting to p— me off.”
“I thought, ‘OK, how am I going to get out of this?’” Ladd recalled at the panel. “So, I went out and bought the tiniest little bikini ever seen on television at that point.”
Ladd knew it wouldn’t pass ABC censors. She did it anyway.

“We filmed, and I heard Aaron’s not happy,” she said.
“At first, somebody came and told me Aaron said, ‘Tell the little troublemaker that she’s never going to do that again,’” she said. “And I didn’t. But I made my point. And when I was wearing a swimming suit, it was something I felt comfortable in.”
“Well, our ratings went up!” Smith, 80, quipped.
Spelling died in 2006 at 83.
Things got serious at the panel. For the first time, Ladd opened up about her breast cancer diagnosis.
“Mine was an aggressive form,” Ladd, who was accompanied by Jackson and Smith, said. “I had wonderful doctors. But I was bald for quite a while. It was a humbling experience.”

“I have a wonderful husband. All through it, he was there for me at every turn, and that makes a difference,” Ladd said, referring to her husband, Brian Russell. “Eventually, I started to get little sprouts of hair. It was like, ‘Oh, I’m getting hair!’ It was a long, long, hard road. But you just get through. You just get on with it.”
Not only do the three women share an unbreakable bond through their experience on the show, but they are all cancer survivors.

“It just connects you because you know what they’re going through,” Smith, who was also diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent radiation treatment in 2002, said during an interview on the “Today” show. “And that’s when I talk about the power of girlfriends.”
When Ladd disclosed her diagnosis to her friends, Smith said she immediately empathized.
“The first thing I did was send her my wigs,” Smith shared. “She was so brave. She did have a very aggressive form [of cancer].”
“It’s really important to understand and embrace not being afraid of getting a mammogram,” Jackson, a two-time breast cancer survivor, added. “Early detection is key. Find it early enough, and you’ll probably be all right.”
Ladd, Jackson and Smith also paid tribute to Fawcett, who appeared as one of the main Angels in the first season of the series. The actress died in 2009 at age 62 following a battle with anal cancer.
“Oh, I feel so proud. I feel appreciative. I feel we did something right,” Smith told Fox News Digital ahead of the panel. “And I feel I’m still standing here. And life has been interesting. It’s been a beautiful journey. Truly, I have two beautiful kids, a great husband and three granddaughters. So I’m riding high. And, you know, I think things are — ‘Charlie’s Angels’ was meant to be. I have no regrets.”
In 2021, Ladd opened up to Fox News Digital about her meaningful friendships with her former co-stars.
“It’s really interesting because when you do something so specific, so iconic, and you are in it when it was huge — it is something you can explain to people, but until you’ve done it, it is different,” she continued.
“We think back often about how crazy that time was. We had to go into restaurants through the back door. We weren’t prepared for how much people would love the show. It was wonderful, but it was wild.”
Despite achieving fame in Hollywood, Ladd said her faith in God has always played a significant role in her life.
“It has been all of it,” she said. “I knew who I was as a young girl. I would climb to the top of the tree and talk to God all the time. It has been an interesting path — a lot of good, a lot of bumps, a lot of tough learning moments.

“He [God] was with me the whole time. He lets us trip ourselves so we remember that He is in charge. I think that is a good thing, especially in our youth, when we aren’t exactly thinking everything through.”

Iran’s supreme leader severely disfigured by US strikes: report
Iran’s new supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei is severely disfigured after suffering leg and face injuries as a result of joint U.S.-Israel airstrikes on Tehran in February, Reuters reported Saturday.
Khamenei is recovering after incurring the injuries in the February 28 airstrikes that killed his father, former supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Hosseini Khamenei. He has not been seen publicly since being hospitalized.
Despite the injuries, Khamenei allegedly remains “mentally sharp,” Reuters reported, citing a trio of anonymous sources within his inner circle. The new supreme leader is in communication with the Iranian delegation in Pakistan for peace talks with a U.S. delegation led by Vice President JD Vance.
The Reuters report corroborates an earlier statement from Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, who told reporters on March 13 that Khamenei was “likely disfigured.”

He then reiterated the claim in a Thursday press conference while outlining the U.S. military’s achievements in Iran.
“Their top leadership was systematically eliminated, their previous Iranian supreme leader dead, the supreme national security council secretary dead, the supreme leader office advisor dead, the supreme leader military office chief dead, the defense minister no longer with us, the IRGC commander dead, the armed forces general staff commander dead, the intelligence minister dead, the IRGC navy commander no longer here, the IRGC Intel chief dead,” Hegseth listed.
“I skipped over a bunch, and I could go on and on and on, to include the new — so-called new supreme leader, wounded and disfigured. This new regime was out of options and out of time, so they cut a deal.”

Despite his weakened condition, Khamenei vowed to put up resistance in a defiant written statement Thursday.
“Iran is not seeking war but will not forfeit its rights and considers all resistance fronts as a unified entity,” the statement read.
Hegseth dismissed the statement as “weak” in his March press conference.

“It was a written statement. Iran has plenty of cameras and plenty of voice recorders. Why a written statement?” Hegseth asked. “I think you know why. His father, dead. He’s scared, he’s injured, he’s on the run and he lacks legitimacy. It’s a mess for them. Who’s in charge? Iran may not even know.”
Sources reportedly told Reuters that Khamenei could enter the public spotlight in a month or two, but only if “his health and the security situation allowed.
While many publicly question where and when we may see the supreme leader again, Iranian hardliners stress the importance of him keeping a low-profile.
“Why should he appear in public? To become a target for these criminals?” an Iranian militiaman asked Reuters in a text message.
