Lahren joined Fox News last summer. She quickly earned a polarizing figure reputation, igniting fierce debates and opposition of political views. These subject matters include immigration, gun control, and abortion.
A viral video floating around social media shows Lahren getting harassed by diners calling her a racist and yelling. You can see as Lahren walks away, a woman appears to sling water at her back from a glass of water.
Lahren expressed, “You don’t have to like me, you don’t have to agree with my political opinions, but you don’t have the right to throw things at me! But then again, I’m tough, I can handle it.” (Videos below)
She went on to say the patrons’ behavior was “not something that I’m not used to,” however it was embarrassing with her mother there.
Among others that stuck up for Tomi Lahren regarding the incident at the restaurant was anti-Trumper Kathy Griffin. SHOCKING!
On Tuesday night, Griffin tweeted that she “couldn’t disagree more” with Lahren, but she has a right to her own views. Griffin adds, “The first amendment is a beautiful thing- use it.” (Videos below)
