Roseanne Barr didn't hold back on the #MeToo movement in a new off-the-rails interview, launching a verbal attack on Sen. Kamala Harris and other women in the process.
The 66-year-old comedian – who was axed from the hit "Roseanne" reboot in May following a racist tweet – sat down with conservative commentator Candace Owens , where she mocked sexual assault accusers and the #MeToo movement "witch hunt."
"If you don't run out the room … but you stayed around because you're like, 'I thought maybe he was going to give me a writing job,' well, you ain't nothing but a ho," Barr said during an episode Sunday of "The Candace Owens Show," after asking why women were in men's hotel rooms late at night.
Barr and Owens compared the feminist movement to white supremacy, while Barr added that #MeToo accusers are "pretending that they didn’t go to trade sexual favors for money."
"I know a ho when I see one," Barr exclaimed. "They need to be called out …That's privilege, too – ho privilege."
The outspoken comedian then lashed out against Sen. Kamala Harris , nicknaming her "Kama Sutra Harris."
"We all know what she did … she slept her way to the bottom," Barr said, referring to the senator's former relationship with ex-San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown.
Barr also took shots at Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, who tearfully testified against now-Supreme Court Judge Brett Kavanaugh after accusing him of sexual misconduct.
"She should be in prison," Barr said, adding that Ford used her "white woman privilege" to avoid time behind bars. She claimed that "nothing happened" to Ford.
"Women are encouraged to be conniving," Barr said.
"Conniving little wimps," Owens agreed.

I guess the loudmouth has been not getting any attention lately.
So it looks like token 'conservative' Candace Owens has a show on You Tube. How pathetic. I guess Fux 'news' isn't interested?
Is it her position that sexual harassment and sexual assault do not take place at all? The #metoo movement is more than entertainment, it speaks to all that have been sexually harassed or assaulted & has tried to make survivors realize that they are not alone & should not feel ashamed.
Me too....
It's her position that it must not happen because it never happened to her and she's jealous...
What a sad commentary.
"Women are encouraged to be conniving," Barr said.
"Conniving little wimps," Owens agreed.
What more proof than those two do you need? I'm sure they're not speaking for others so they can only be projecting their own faults in those statements.
Roseanne is literally mentally ill.
She is extremely wealthy, so she has no financial incentive to make a fool out of herself. She has that far right alt right conspiracy bent, which can only ends and always ends with her looking ridiculous.
Candace Owens is a media whore who acts the fool for money.
I see Roseanne is trying to stay relevant
From that photo it looks like she's explaining how to artificially inseminate a Christmas elf...
thanks for that mental image
Morning..Funny how these "has-beens" all start coming out of the wood work when they no longer get the attention they crave...So in their view it is better to say something regardless of how stupid it makes them look and get the attention, than say nothing...Some people just don't know when to shut up and fade away with grace and accept their time in the limelight is over...Just shows how desperate they have become...
The bottom line here is the result of Birtherism and the results it has unleashed.
Barr is little more than a 'public face' of the American underbelly that yearns to be relevant again. Antebellum thought is dying, but its death is a long, slow, lingering one.
You are forgetting Truthers which proceeded Birthers by a whole presidency.
Obviously Rump supporters have a problem with the truth.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Just as Birthers were largely Republican & Independent extremists,
Truthers were Democrat & Independent extremists, or deep conspiracy theorists, if you will,
who believed that Bush 43 had foreknowledge of the 911 attacks and allowed them to happen, in order to finish the war his father did not finish decisively enough in Iraq.
