WATCH: Twitter Permanently Bans Free Speech Activist for Response to Trans Woman’s Vulgar Tweet About Her Genitalia

In this episode of “Pseudo-Intellectual,” host Lauren Chen talked about Canadian free speech advocate Lindsay Shepherd who was permanently banned from Twitter after an online altercation with a transgender woman named Jessica Yaniv.

According to The Post Millennial, Shepherd claimed, “I got suspended for two tweets (although they didn’t tell me exactly which tweets were the problem so I am giving my best guess): last night, JY tweeted that I have a loose vagina from pushing a 10 pound baby out, but he still has a “tight p***y” (in reality, JY still has male genitalia according to the proceedings of the current human rights tribunals he’s been testifying in; and in reality I had a C-section and a 6 pound 10 oz baby).”

Shepard reportedly replied by saying, “This is something a man who has no functional romantic relationships with women would say.” After Yaniv sent an additional mocking tweet, she added, “at least I have a uterus, you fat ugly man.”

Video: Man Dies After Being Struck by Ocean Wave

A North Carolina man has died after a powerful ocean wave struck his head while he was on the beach with his family.

WATCH: Trump Drops in on MAGA Themed Wedding

After a tumultuous and bizarre week in Washington, President Trump unexpectedly dropped in on the wedding of PJ Mongelli and Nicole Marie Mongelli on Saturday night at the Trump National Golf Club Bedminster in New Jersey, as enthusiastic attendees broke into chants of “USA.”

Fox News is told the bride and groom are huge fans of the president, had dreamed of him attending their wedding and got engaged at the golf club in 2017. Flags and pro-Trump banners could be seen at the event.

The bride said she’d sent numerous requests to the president in hopes he would attend — and that Trump ended up paying two visits to separate wedding events. At the first event, he vowed to show up to the second, and kept his word. . .

In videos posted to social media, Secret Service agents were seen keeping most attendees at bay while the bride and groom approached Trump and hugged him.

In March, Trump fulfilled a terminally ill Connecticut man’s dying wish with a phone call — with a little help from the man’s sister, an elected Democrat.

WATCH: Georgia House Minority Leader Caught in a Hate Hoax

Georgia State Rep. and Minority Leader Erica Thomas (D) took to Twitter on Saturday, saying a white man called her “a lazy SOB” and that she needed to go back to where she came from because she had too many items in the express lane at the local Publix. . .

“I walked into Publix, I bought my three items. There were three checkout lanes. One was express, the other two were empty. I kept my tongue shut. I went to pay for my items in one of the empty lanes. This lady, I noticed, had about 20 items on the conveyer,” Sparkes explained. “I walked up to the two customer service associates from Publix, asked them what can be done in a nice manner and they said corporate policy [says] we cant do anything but you as a customer can say something.” . . .

“I said, ‘Ma’am, not to be rude,’ my exact first words, point at the sign, which shows it in the surveillance camera, which I’ve seen already, point at the sign, ’10 items or less.’ She berates me after that. I don’t remember exactly what she said, but on camera, she approached me, came towards me as I took a couple steps back. I said, ‘You’re selfish.’ She mentioned she was nine months pregnant and I told it didn’t matter in this case. It has no point on this case. There’s two empty lines. You don’t need to be in the express line.” . . .

According to Sparkes, the two exchanged words, at which point he said, “You’re a selfish little b**ch.” He said after he made the comment he walked out of the grocery store.

Omar Has Another Far-Fetched Opinion About Trump’s Take on Minorities and Muslims

President Donald Trump has had an ongoing feud with members of “The Squad,” made up for Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rashida Tlabid (D-MI) and Ayanna Pressley (D-MA). On Friday evening, Omar, once again, responded to President Trump’s claim that if “The Squad” doesn’t like living in America, they are more than welcome to leave.

Omar interpreted that as Trump wanting every black and brown person in America to be deported and for Muslims to be banned.

Trump never said he wanted all people of color to be deported or for Muslims to be banned in America. That is Omar’s interpretation of things and, quite honestly, they’re worthy of an eye roll or two.

Resurfaced Video Shows Rashida Tlaib Exploding At Trump Speech. Here’s How Trump Responded.

A video from 2016 of then-private citizen Rashida Tlaib exploding at an economic speech of then-candidate Donald Trump resurfaced over the weekend and led to widespread mockery of the far-left Democratic lawmaker.

The incident happened on August 8, 2016, as Trump outlined his economic policy in a speech at the Detroit Economic Club.

Video of the incident spread like wildfire over the weekend on Twitter, with many prominent accounts commenting on it publicly and mocking her for her public meltdown. . .

Donald Trump Jr. weighed in on the video, writing on Twitter: “Crooked called us ‘Deplorables.’ Tlaib calls us ‘Crazy.’ In reality we just love our country, want every American—no matter their race, religion or socioeconomic status—to have a safe & prosperous life & expect our leaders to put America First. It’s simple.”

WATCH: House Chaplain Casts out Demons During Morning Prayer in Capitol Building

By Townhall. Reverend Patrick Conroy serves as the House of Representatives Chaplain in Washington, D.C. and regularly starts the day off for lawmakers with prayer. Thursday’s invocation was a little more serious than most days for Rev. Conroy. The Roman Catholic Priest prayed specifically to cast out the demons inside Capitol Hill.

As reported by Fox News, Rev. Conroy said, “This has been a difficult and contentious week in which darker spirits seem to have been at play in the people’s House.”

Then, in a dramatic moment, Conroy raised both hands and said, ‘In Your most holy name, I cast out all spirits of darkness from this chamber. Spirits not from You. I cast out the spirit of discouragement which deadens the hope of those who are of goodwill.'”

“I cast out the spirit of petty divisiveness which clouds the sense and the desire to be of fruitful productivity and addressing the issues more appropriately before this House,” he prayed. “I cast out any sadness brought on by the frustration of dealing with matters detrimental to the honorable work each member has been called to engage in.” (Read more from “House Chaplain Casts out Demons During Morning Prayer in Capitol Building” HERE)

House Chaplain Prays to Cast ‘Spirits of Darkness’ From Congress

By CNN. . .In a brief interview afterward, Conroy said the echo was intentional. But he added that his prayer, which he wrote himself, was more inspired by traditional blessings for homes or other buildings.

“Anoint your servants here in the House with a healing balm to comfort and renew the souls of all in this assembly,” Conroy prayed. “May your spirit of wisdom and patience descend upon all so that any spirit of darkness might have no place in our midst.”

The idea for the prayer came to him, the chaplain said, after Tuesday’s contentious House vote to condemn as racist President Donald Trump’s tweets telling four Democrat congresswomen to “go back” to their home countries. Three were born in the United States, the fourth is a naturalized citizen.

“I was on the House floor on Tuesday,” Conroy told CNN, “and to me, it felt different than other days. It felt like there was something going on beyond just political disagreement. The energy of the House was very off. No one was relishing what was happening.” (Read more from “House Chaplain Prays to Cast ‘Spirits of Darkness’ From Congress” HERE)

WATCH: Students Shocked Over President Obama’s ‘White Nationalist’ Statements About Illegal Immigration

While watching the Democrat media complex’s coverage of the ongoing crisis at the southern border with Mexico, one is likely get the perception that the problem started under President Trump and the way he’s handling it is unprecedented, racist and fueled by xenophobia.

But the truth is, this crisis started in 2014 when President Barack Obama ran the White House. . .

To prove this point, Campus Reform’s Cabot Phillips caught up with students to ask about President Obama’s statements on the issue. A number of them called his comments “white nationalist” speech and then admitted they thought the statements were made by President Trump.

President Trump Says He ‘Was Not Happy’ With Crowd Chanting ‘Send Her Back’ at Campaign Rally

President Donald Trump on Thursday distanced himself from supporters who chanted “send her back” at his campaign rally in North Carolina after the president criticized Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn.

While speaking with reporters in the Oval Office, Trump was asked why he didn’t ask his supporters to stop the chant. “Well, number one, I think I did, I started speaking very quickly,” Trump said. “I disagree with it, by the way, but it was quite a chant.”

“I felt a little bit badly about it,” the president added. “I was not happy with it. I disagree with it.”

During the Wednesday evening rally in Greenville, N.C., the crowd erupted into chants of “send her back” after the president remarked on Omar, a Muslim Somali immigrant, laughing at Americans who say “al Quaeda” in a menacing tone and her refusal to condemn the terrorist group.

“Omar laughed that Americans speak of al Qaeda in a menacing tone and remarked that ‘you don’t say “America” with this intensity,’” Trump said to boos and jeers from the audience. “You say al Qaeda makes you proud, you don’t speak that way about America,” he continued. As he continued to criticize Omar, the crowd erupted into chants of “send her back.”

Omar did not say she is “proud” of al Qaeda, but in a 2013 video to which the president appears to be referring, she did joke about people saying “al Qaeda” and “Hezbollah” in harsh tones.

The chant has been condemned by several Republican officials, while other GOP leaders are defending the president. Asked about the incident Thursday, House Republican Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., said the president “didn’t join in” and criticized the media for trying to hold Trump accountable for actions taken by his large crowd.

This controversy follows widespread criticism and accusations of racism against President Trump for weekend tweets suggesting that progressive congresswomen including Omar should “go back” to countries they “originally came from.” Trump denied that his tweets were racist and insisted that “Radical Left Congresswomen apologize to our Country, the people of Israel, and even to the Office of the President, for the foul language they have used, and the terrible things they have said.” (For more from the author of “President Trump Says He ‘Was Not Happy’ With Crowd Chanting ‘Send Her Back’ at Campaign Rally” please click HERE)

American Pastor Released From Turkish Prison Astounded at the Rate the U.S. is Imploding

The evangelical Presbyterian pastor whose two-year imprisonment in Turkey sparked a geopolitical firestorm issued sobering words for Americans during a religious liberty conference last week.

Pastor Andrew Brunson lived as a missionary pastor in Turkey for decades until being detained in October 2016, following an alleged failed coup attempt against Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. His arrest sparked a diplomatic spat between Turkey and the U.S. in which President Trump involved himself personally.

During an interview at the Western Conservative Summit, held annually by the Centennial Institute at Colorado Christian University, Brunson claimed that the Judeo-Christian basis for American values is eroding.

“First of all, I think it’s coming to the U.S., that there will be persecution,” he said. “I was isolated for a few years, and coming back to the states was almost like coming back to a different country in many ways. And I’m really astounded at the speed with which, I think, the U.S. is imploding.”

“There are any number of issues where it seems that it’s no longer enough for a person of faith to get along with, or to serve, or to treat well someone they disagree with,” he continued. “And I think that the political business, media, celebrity class, and also academia, it seems that there’s much more of a demand that people of faith approve of, that they validate, that they celebrate things that they actually disagree with.”
