Bette Midler has apologized West Virginians after a tweet she posted regarding Senator Joe Manchin.
On Monday the star expressed her frustration with Manchin, who represents West Virginian, when the Democratic senator announced he would not support President Joe Biden's Build Back Better Act.
Midler originally tweeted "What #JoeManchin, who represents a population smaller than Brooklyn, has done to the rest of America, who wants to move forward, not backward, like his state, is horrible."

The House Judiciary Committee is demanding interviews with four current and former Department of Justice officials who were involved in subpoenaing phone records for several members of Congress around the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack, the day before Republicans interview former special counsel Jack Smith.
