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.
