MAGA TV host kicked out of town hall for hurling shocking insult about Dem. Rep. Jasmine Crockett

A right-wing TV host was kicked out of a town hall in Texas for heckling and hurling shocking insults at Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett. Sara Gonzales, the host of 'Sara Gonzales Unfiltered' on conservative network BlazeTV, turned up at Crockett's event Thursday and caused a massive stir, when she stood up and started screaming at the politician. Gonzales, who has billed herself as 'everyone's favorite spicy Latina', called the Democrat a 'fake ghetto hoodrat' and a 'spoiled rich kid'. 'Jasmine! The people of Dallas deserve better than a fake ghetto hoodrat!' she shouted. 'Do they know you're a rich kid from Missouri? Do they know you're a spoiled rich kid from Missouri?' The verbal attack began as Crockett was reminiscing about her grandmother on stage. Crowd members clapped back at Gonzales, pushing her and telling her to 'get out' of the town hall. 'Don't touch me! Get her off me!' the host hit back. 'Get off me! Get the f**k off me!' Gonzales, whose show airs on the network founded by former Fox News host Glenn Beck, continued to hurl insults at Crockett while she was thrown out of the room. 'Do your people know you're a spoiled rich kid from Missouri?' she shouted. Crockett hails from St Louis, Missouri, where she attended Rhodes College, a high school with a $55,000 annual tuition. She later attended prestigious universities in Tennessee and Texas before becoming a public defender in Bowie County, Texas, and then running for public office. Gonzales bragged about her attack on X, posting a video montage of the drama and writing: 'I confronted Jasmine Crockett at a town hall for being a fake hoodrat.' In a video clip taken by Gonzales herself, security guards are seen trying to escort her out of the room while she struggles against them, screaming, 'Get the f*** off.' On the steps outside, Gonzales continued her tirade, this time hitting out at the officers removing her from the venue. Gonzales sarcastically asked them: 'Are you proud?' The officers responded by ordering her to leave the venue and threatening to place her in handcuffs if she refused. Crockett's latest Texas town hall comes as she is making waves in Washington, DC. She has served as the US representative for Texas's 30th congressional district since 2023, and has earned a reputation as a controversial figure in the Democratic Party. She has hit headlines multiple times in recent months as a key critic of the Trump administration and its redistricting plans. Earlier this month, she called President Donald Trump 'a piece of sh*t' during a stop on the MoveOn's Won't Back Down Tour in Phoenix, Arizona. The congresswoman's comments came in response to Republican plans to redraw maps in red states to their advantage ahead of next year's midterm elections. Crockett also called Trump 'Temu Hitler' in a July interview with SiriusXM host Zerlina Maxwell, due to the president's involvement in the redistricting process. 'So what we have seen is, again, this rogue Department of Justice going out to do the bidding of this Temu Hitler,' Crockett said. But, according to insiders, there is turmoil within her own office.

Conservative TV host crashes Jasmine Crockett town hall to call Democrat a ‘fake ghetto hoodrat'

Right-wing TV host Sara Gonzales got herself thrown out of a town hall hosted by Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett in Texas on Thursday after heckling the congresswoman and calling her 'a fake ghetto hoodrat.' Crockett was reminiscing about her grandmother when Gonzales, who works for former Fox News host Glenn Beck 's Blaze TV, stood up and started berating her. 'Jasmine! The people of Dallas deserve better than a fake ghetto hoodrat!' Gonzales shouted. 'Do they know you're a rich kid from Missouri? Do they know you're a spoiled rich kid from Missouri?' Her remarks drew an angry reaction from other members of the audience, and she was promptly hustled out of the venue by security. As Gonzales left, a woman pushed against her and snarled: 'Get your ass out of here!' Another man approached her and ordered her to 'Get out! Get out!' 'Don't touch me! Get her off me!' the journalist hit back. 'Get off me! Get the f*** off me!' She also continued to yell at Crockett: 'Do your people know you're a spoiled rich kid from Missouri?' On the steps outside, Gonzales sarcastically asked police officers: 'Are you proud?' They responded by demanding she leave the venue and threatened to place her in handcuffs if she refused to comply. Gonzales subsequently posted a video of the incident on X captioned: 'I confronted Jasmine Crockett at a townhall for being a fake hoodrat.' The stunt appeared to be a calculated attempt to disrupt a Democrat's town hall in response to numerous equivalent events held by Republicans descending into the chaos of late, most recently that of Nebraska Rep. Mike Flood, who was peppered with hostile questions from his constituents about the Donald Trump administration's failure to release the Jeffrey Epstein files. Gonzales was not the only person to protest Crockett at her event. Another woman shouted at the politician: 'Jasmine, why do you hate white people? Why are you racist towards white people?' Gonzales was at least correct in saying that Crockett hails from Missouri. The representative was born in St Louis but went on to attend prestigious universities in Tennessee and Texas before becoming a public defender in Bowie County, Texas, before running for public office. Gonzales herself is the host of Blaze's Sara Gonzales Unfiltered, which has run since 2019 and on which she has been billed as 'everyone's favorite spicy Latina,' with the show promising 'a no-holds-barred take on news and culture.'

Caitlin Clark Has Hilarious Goal For WNBA All-Star Game

Caitlin Clark Has Hilarious Goal For WNBA All-Star Game originally appeared on The Spun. While an injury may keep Caitlin Clark from playing in the All-Star Game at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, she's still representing the league by being there and appears to have a gameplan for sitting in the stands. Speaking to the media ahead of the game, Clark said that in lieu of playing, she'll be doing her part by heckling the referees a bit. She joked that she would decide how much to heckle them once she learned who was there. "I think I gotta heckle the refs a little bit," Clark said. "I don't know who's reffing yet, but that'll determine how much I'm going to heckle them. I mean obviously if they're at the All-Star game, usually it's some of the better ones. Maybe I can get a technical or something." Clark has had no shortage of run-ins with WNBA officials in the month of July alone. Some have even blamed the officiating for the injury that is causing her to miss the All-Star Game. Fans certainly appreciated the dig at the officials: "She's so damn unserious! OMG love you! Hahaha," one user replied. "Of course," another said. "I hope she gets the first ever technical in an All Star game." Clark has also been there to show solidarity with the players in their battle for a new and more lucrative Collective Bargaining Agreement. She showed up on the court for warm-ups wearing a "Pay Us What We're Worth" t-shirt. "Honestly, I feel like that's where we're really fortunate is that we have those other deals. And I think that's one of the things we're in the room fighting for," Clark said today. "Like (Napheesa Collier) said, we should be paid more and hopefully that's the case moving forward as the league continues to grow. That's probably the most important thing that we're in the room advocating for."Caitlin Clark Has Hilarious Goal For WNBA All-Star Game first appeared on The Spun on Jul 20, 2025 This story was originally reported by The Spun on Jul 20, 2025, where it first appeared.

Report: Fan banned by MLB after heckling Dbacks' Ketel Marte to tears with barb about late mother

A fan who heckled Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte during a game against the Chicago White Sox at Rate Field on Tuesday night has been banned indefinitely from all major league stadiums, a person with direct knowledge of the decision told The Associated Press. Marte was seen in tears on the field after the spectator yelled a derogatory comment about Marte's late mother during a seventh-inning at-bat in Arizona's 4-1 win over Chicago. Advertisement According to a White Sox spokesperson, the security staff at the ballpark relayed that the 22-year-old fan was 'very apologetic and remorseful after the fact, and admitted to being very inappropriate and stupid with his comments.' Another person confirmed to the AP that Major League Baseball had banned the fan from all big league stadiums. That person spoke on condition of anonymity because the punishment wasn't announced by the league. Arizona manager Torey Lovullo and bench coach Jeff Banister asked for the fan to be removed from the game. Before Wednesday's series finale, Lovullo said he 'had little bit of an interaction with the fan' as he was yelling at Marte. 'He wasn't getting it and was very pompous, and it didn't sit right with me,' Lovullo said. 'It was just a gross comment you wouldn't say about anybody, let alone someone who lost their mom. 'We need better baseball fans. Baseball deserves better.' Advertisement Marte's mother, Elpidia Valdez, died in a car accident in the Dominican Republic in 2017. Marte, who hit a solo home run in the first inning Tuesday night, was seen visibly upset during a pitching change in the bottom of the seventh as Lovullo put his arm around his player and consoled him. 'I just reacted as a dad would when I went out to change pitchers,' Lovullo said, according to the Arizona Republic. 'I could see he was sobbing. It hurt.' "(I told him): 'I love you and I'm with you, and we're all together and you're not alone. No matter what happens, no matter what was said or what you heard, that guy is an idiot. It shouldn't have an impact on you.'' Marte declined to comment on the incident through a team official. Diamondbacks shortstop Geraldo Perdomo said the fan 'should be banned, for sure' and called for MLB to intervene. 'That can't happen,' Perdomo said. 'We can't continue to do that ... here in MLB.'
