MAGA pundit throws tampon at liberal colleague after calling her ‘pretty emotional' during fiery debate about Iran

Independent19-06-2025
A MAGA pundit has hurled a tampon at a colleague during a heated debate about the Iran-Israel conflict after describing her behavior as 'pretty emotional right now.'
In the clip, podcaster Adam Sosnick asks Ana Kasparian, one of the four women on the current affairs show Her Take debate panel, 'Did you vote for Trump? Let me ask you, who did you vote for?'
'Adam, are you f****** kidding me right now? You can be 'America first' and not vote for Trump,' Kasparian, who is a host and producer of the online news show The Young Turks, scolds.
'No, if you were 'America first,' you would've voted for Trump,' Sosnick says, before calling her 'a progressive.'
The conversation then escalates to an awkward and bizarre moment.
Sosnick took aim at Kasparian after she called out the IDF for 'killing a lot of innocent people,' as well as those who are not willing to criticize Israel.
'I'm critical of Israel just like I'm critical of America, so if America makes mistakes, I'll call them out,' Sosnick says after shutting down Lindy Li, who attempts to interject.
'If Israel makes mistakes, I will call them out. I don't understand what you're doing when you're trying to be pro-Hamas and pro-Iran,' he adds.
'I'm trying to have an honest exchange with you – I'm not putting words in your mouth, please don't put words in my mouth,' Kasparian says.
'You can talk when I'm done talking, and that's how this will work, no?' he says.
'But you straw-man me and argue that I'm making arguments that I didn't make, ' says Kasparian.
'Just like you straw-manned me and said that I'm Israel-first,' says Sosnick.
'I'm going to interrupt you. I'm going to interrupt you if you lie about what I'm saying,' she says.
'So you're a grown-up when you argue. Got it,' he says.
'I am a grown-up, yeah. Go ahead,' she says.
'So, you seem very emotional, and I threw you a tissue just in case. I also have a tampon in case you need a tampon,' he says before throwing a tampon from his pocket and onto the panel top.
The sarcastic stunt prompts Jillian Michaels to say, 'Adam, she's going to beat the s*** out of you, and I'm going to let her.'
'It's a tampon, just in case you start crying,' he adds.
Amy Dangerfield quickly swipes the tampon from the table, throwing it behind her and shaking her head in dismay.
The conversation then resumes on Israel.
X user Leslie Torres slated Sosnick on X after the clip surfaced, writing: 'How pathetic is Adam that he had to bring a tampon to the debate because he knew he would lose against you lmao.'
Kasparian responded Tuesday, writing, 'He came prepared with a tampon in his pocket because he had no rebuttals or substantive counters. Pathetic.'
The debate show, which premiered in May, aims to be a segment 'where bold women tackle culture, business, politics, and relationships — with no filters and no scripts,' according to its producers.

Republicans propose bill to rename the Kennedy Center to the Donald J. Trump Center for the Performing Arts

Republican Representative Bob Onder has proposed a bill to rename the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., after President Donald Trump. The proposed legislation, titled the 'Make Entertainment Great Again Act,' cites President Trump as a significant cultural icon and patron of the arts. This bill follows a separate amendment, introduced by Republican Representative Mike Simpson, to rename the Kennedy Center's Opera House after First Lady Melania Trump, which passed the House Appropriations Committee 33-25. President Trump recently replaced members of the Kennedy Center's board and became its chairman, stating his intention to ensure the institution was 'not going to be woke.' John F. Kennedy's grandson, Jack Schlossberg, has criticized these renaming efforts, suggesting President Trump is 'obsessed with being bigger than JFK.'

Oil climbs on EU trade deal, potential US-China tariff truce extension

July 29 (Reuters) - Oil extended gains on Tuesday, lifted by hopes of improved economic activity after the U.S.-EU trade deal, a potential U.S.-China tariff truce and President Donald Trump's shorter deadline for Russia to end the Ukraine war. Brent crude futures were up 24 cents, or 0.34%, to $70.28 a barrel by 0000 GMT, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude was at $66.93 a barrel, up 22 cents, or 0.33%. Both contracts settled more than 2% higher in the previous session, and Brent touched its highest level since July 18 on Monday. The trade agreement between the United States and the European Union, while imposing a 15% import tariff on most EU goods, sidestepped a full-blown trade war between the two major allies that would have rippled across nearly a third of global trade and dimmed the outlook for fuel demand. Oil prices were also supported by news of a possible extension of the trade truce between the U.S. and China, with top economic officials from both countries having met in Stockholm on Monday for more than five hours of talks. The discussions are expected to resume on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Trump set a new deadline on Monday of "10 or 12 days" for Russia to make progress toward ending the war in Ukraine or face sanctions. Trump has threatened sanctions on both Russia and buyers of its exports unless progress is made. "Trump's comments reignited fears that Russia's oil flows would be impacted," ANZ senior commodity strategist Daniel Hynes wrote in a note. "This also comes on the back of the latest sanctions package by the EU against Russia, including a lower price cap on the country's crude and the import of refined products made from Moscow's oil in other countries," Hynes added.

US Justice Department files 'misconduct complaint' against prominent judge

July 28 (Reuters) - The Justice Department filed a misconduct complaint Monday against U.S. District Court Chief Judge James Boasberg, a prominent Washington, D.C., judge who has drawn President Donald Trump's ire, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi said on X. Boasberg said in April that the Trump administration appeared to have acted "in bad faith" when it hurriedly assembled three deportation flights on March 15 at the same time that he was conducting emergency court proceedings to assess the legality of the effort. "Today at my direction, @TheJusticeDept filed a misconduct complaint against U.S. District Court Chief Judge James Boasberg for making improper public comments about President Trump and his Administration," Bondi said, without specifying which comments was she referring to.
