Sydney Sweeney becomes Republican icon after gun range video goes viral, ‘3000% wifey material'
A 2019 video of the Euphoria actress training at a gun range with Taran Tactical Innovations has resurfaced online, and it has been lighting up Instagram feeds. The timing? No coincidence. The firearms retailer reposted the clip over the weekend, edited alongside Sweeney's now-controversial American Eagle ad – a denim campaign that's been both praised and panned across the political spectrum. Sydney Sweeney's new American Eagle ad campaign has been garnering backlash for having racial undertones.(REUTERS) Her jeans are blue - and her shot's on point The original gun range video, captioned as 'training for a new project,' shows a focused Sweeney firing with precision - a stark contrast to her now-infamous American Eagle monologue that ends with the line: 'My jeans are blue.' The juxtaposition of clips reignited discourse around the actress, particularly among conservative fans who flooded the comments with declarations like: '3000% wifey material" 'Strong, self-thinking women are the sexiest!" 'Make America hot again 🇺🇸' Enter Donald Trump and the Republican revelation As if the online buzz weren't loud enough, former President Donald Trump weighed in after discovering Sweeney has been registered with the Republican Party of Florida since June 2024. 'She's a registered Republican?' he asked reporters. 'If Sydney Sweeney is a Republican, I think her ad is fantastic!' The 27-year-old hasn't responded directly to the backlash or the unexpected political praise, but she's clearly unfazed. On Saturday night, she hit up The GasLite karaoke bar in Santa Monica with Euphoria castmates Hunter Schafer and Maude Apatow - belting out 'What's Up' by 4 Non Blondes like nothing was brewing online. Jacob Elordi was also spotted at the venue. Caught in the Culture War - and Still Winning While her American Eagle ad drew backlash for what some critics called a 'racialized dog whistle,' the brand has stood by the campaign. And Sweeney? She's too busy living her best life - and apparently hitting bullseyes - to clap back. With Hollywood charm, right-wing appeal and now viral firepower, Sydney Sweeney just might be the most unexpected culture war icon of 2025.

Deadheads hope to 'make America grateful again'
AN ARMY OF people in tie-dye descended on San Francisco. In the 1960s this would not have been remarkable. Young people thronged to the Haight-Ashbury neighbourhood in those days, tripping on LSD and fashioning a performance of their own disillusionment with America. But on August 1st in Golden Gate Park many of the hippies were getting on in years. Several men sporting rainbows or funky hats leaned on canes. They were there to celebrate 60 years of the Grateful Dead, a band formed in San Francisco that came to epitomise the counterculture of the '60s. 'We're Deadheads but we're not crazy people,' explains Mary Kay Williams, who travelled with her husband Greg from Pennsylvania. Greg chimes in: it's about 'making America grateful again'. Many of the Grateful Dead are, well, dead. Jerry Garcia, the band's beloved frontman and a hugely talented guitarist, died in 1995. So the trio of shows in Golden Gate Park were played by Dead & Company, which former band members created in 2015, adding a few younger musicians who can improvise as well as the old guard—and draw in new fans. 'I'm a millennial so I'm into John Mayer,' says Maria, one of three new moms hanging out in the VIP area, referring to the guitarist and singer-songwriter popular in his own right. The concerts are part of a plan from Daniel Lurie, the city's new wealthy philanthropist mayor, to use live entertainment to help fix San Francisco's brand, which has been tarred in recent years by public drug use and homelessness. Some of the city's buses were covered in psychedelic colours and flowers for the occasion. Not all drugs are shunned, however. Every other person at the show seemed to be pinching a fat joint. As the city's notorious fog settled over the park, billows of smoke thickened it. The shows also provide a way to compare the Dead's San Francisco to the city as it exists today. The tech elite who were perhaps once drawn to the city for its reputation for freethinking and disruption have helped create a world where everyone is staring at screens, transfixed by whatever X or Instagram post is going viral. The concert blended old and new. Patagonia vests, the sartorial choice of many techies, abounded. The Economist spotted at least one startup boss sauntering out of a private suite. Politics were inescapable. Deadheads grumbled about Donald Trump, whose presidency, they say, is antithetical to their 'be kind' ethos. Some counterculture scholars argue that Mr Trump's election can be tied to the turbulence of that era. 'Every single presidential election since the 1960s has been, in some way, a referendum on the '60s—its impact or its meaning,' says Nicholas Meriwether, executive director of the Grateful Dead Studies Association, an independent academic outfit devoted to 'advancing the scholarly study of the Grateful Dead and their associated contexts'. To the uninitiated, the show felt like a ghostly gathering fuelled by nostalgia and weed. But for older attendees, the music helped them take a long, strange trip back to their youth. LizAnn and Scarlet, who preferred to use aliases ('Doesn't everyone have one?'), met at a Grateful Dead show in 1982 and have been friends ever since. 'Jerry [Garcia] travels on an astral plane and takes all of us with him,' says Scarlet. 'It's awesome.'
