And in the wake of the deadly shootings at a Colorado Springs Planned Parenthood facility on Black Friday, the "Divine Miss M" hopped on Twitter and offered her take on who she believes is to blame:

"Thanks to overheated screeds spewing from the mouths of the GOP, and in Congress, innocent people have died in CO, including a policeman," Midler wrote.

While Midler received some support for her position —

— it appeared that most responses to her tweet got right back in her face:
