Women from Hollywood to Washington are working to end sexual harassment in the workplace with movements like #MeToo and Time’s Up. And now, Meryl Streep is calling on Melania Trump to speak out. That’s right, Melania — Meryl is lookin’ at you.

In a new interview, Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks, both stars of The Post, spoke with The New York Times about Donald Trump, #MeToo, and Harvey Weinstein.

When Streep was asked about her role in the #MeToo movement, Streep said “I don’t want to hear about the silence of me. I want to hear about the silence of Melania Trump. I want to hear from her. She has so much that’s valuable to say. And so does Ivanka. I want her to speak now.” Read more…

“Something about Americans needs to have people that they recognize from television,” Gasteyer reasoned. She doesn’t agree with President Ivanka, but it’s the same thought process that led Bee to her answer. Read more…
