Tila Tequila Does Nazi Salute, Gets Suspended from Twitter

Twitter has had enough of Tila Tequila. Last Saturday, an alt-right convention was held in Washington D.C., with Richard Spencer leading a gathering of the National Policy Institute in showering Donald Trump with praise. But not for his views on gun control, taxes or abortion. For the fact that the President-Elect is helping to once again make this an all “white country.” Among the attendees at this disturbing event was Tila Tequila, the former model and reality star who has shown numerous signs over the years of having severe mental issues. For example, Tila once said that Beyonce is a demon who is all about destroying the souls of children around the world. In this same Twitter rant from May, Tila came right out and said she is a “white nationalist.” She also once shared a photo of her infant daughter with a Hitler mustache . We hate to give her any kind of platform or attention, but Tequila made national headlines over the weekend when she Tweeted a photo of herself holding up the Nazi salute during a dinner at Maggianos Little Italy restaurant. She did so alongside other members of National Policy Institute, as you can see below: In response to this outrageous image, the restaurant posted a statement on Facebook apologizing for Tequila’s actions… and her Twitter account was later suspended. “On Friday night, Maggiano’s in Friendship Heights was the inadvertent site of a protest that caused us to close our restaurant to protect the safety of our Teammates and Guests,” wrote the eatery on social media, adding: “The protesters were upset because of a banquet we were hosting for a group called the National Policy Institute (NPI). This was a last minute booking made Friday afternoon, and the reservation was made under a different name, therefore we were not aware that NPI was dining with us or what the group represents. After the event, an attendee sent a tweet in which she made a “Sieg Heil salute” in support of Hitler and white supremacy. “This expression of support of Hitler is extremely offensive to us, as our restaurant is home to Teammates and Guests of every race, religion and cultural background. “We want to sincerely apologize to the community of Friendship Heights for inadvertently hosting this meeting, which resulted in hateful sentiment. “We want you to know that at the suggestion of one of our Guests, we are donating the profits from our restaurant sales on Friday, $10,000, to the DC office of the Anti-Defamation League, which for decades has been working to bring people together in peace and understanding.” Of course, no one is really focused now on the role of Maggiano’s here.  Although the restaurant has released an admirable statement and taken admirable actions. Below, meanwhile, we’ve shared a video of Spencer’s speech. In it, he leads the crowd in a chant of “Hail Trump, hail our people, hail victory.” Richard Spencer Leads Neo-Nazis in “Hail Trump” Salute Tequila is somewhere in this crowd. We can’t exactly say we’re surprised. But we can say the following: EWWWW! GROSS! DISGUSTING! YOU ARE ALL TERRIBLE, AWFUL PEOPLE! Please come out and strongly denounce them, President-Elect Trump.

Ariel Winter Twerks in a Thong Bikini, Is a National Treasure

OK, look, these past few days have been hard. Really hard. Unbearable, even. Donald Trump won the election , and it basically kick-started the apocalypse. Everything is scary and terrible and sad right now. Or, well, maybe not everything . Ariel Winter Twerks in a Bikini There is still at least a little bit of good in the world, and Ariel Winter proved it when she so selflessly shared that little video. She’s on vacation in Mexico right now, and even though it’s cold and dreary in most of the U.S. right now ( and in our hearts, obviously ), it’s warm and sunny down there. Sunny enough for Ariel to put on a teeny tiny little thong bikini and twerk for the masses. #Blessed. And if you’re one of those people who are prone to be all “well, that’s not technically twerking,” then one, you’re the reason we can’t have nice things. And two, take a gander at this: #BlessedAF. It seems like it’s really important to Ariel that we all know that she’s on vacation, and that she has an ass that moves in a way that many people find appealing. But don’t worry, because she really wanted us to get an eyeful of cleavage , too: As you can see, not all heroes wear capes. And while she’s definitely getting some criticism for sharing such racy pics, she’s said before that she really couldn’t care less about what people think. She recently spoke out about the backlash her frequently sexy selfies receive, saying “I don’t really think I’m telling myself ‘You should post this, you shouldn’t post that.'” “I feel like I’m just having fun. I like my fans to see what I’m doing.” Oh, we see you, girl. “Everybody is so hyped up on the fact that I post photos where my butt’s out,” she went on. “It’s a butt. Everyone has a butt. I don’t think it’s crazy.” “It’s like, ‘Let me live! I’m enjoying my life, you’re enjoying your life, you should be posting your butt if you like it, too!'” she said. “I’m not going to fight with someone on my Instagram that tells me they don’t like my outfit or I should put my butt away.” “I’m sorry you think I should put my butt away, but just unfollow me.” It was some solid advice: she wants to show her butt, she’s going to show her butt, and if you don’t like it, you can unfollow her social media accounts. But we have a feeling, after this twerk-tastic magic, people wouldn’t dare unfollow Ariel. It’s just too. Much. Hotness. View Slideshow: Ariel Winter: 35 Pics of Our Favorite Modern Family Star!
