Over the last 48 hours, the two biggest stories to dominate the news cycle have involved the controversy surrounding former Breitbart News editor milo yiannopoulos, and the Donald Trump administration's decision to rollback protection for transgender students. Reaction to the news has mostly fallen down party lines, which was evident in the latest rant from conservative firebrand Tomi Lahren.

Tomi gets triggered

After skyrocketing into the mainstream over the last month, Milo Yiannopoulos has fallen from grace following the release of a video that resurfaced appearing to show the controversial British journalist defending pedophilia.

While Yiannopoulos has since apologized, claiming his remarks were taken out of context, the incident caused him to lose his $250,000 book deal, his speaking slot at CPAC, and his job at Breitbart News. Yiannopoulos has also come under fire for comments made on "Real Time with Bill Maher" just last week, where he attacked transgender individuals, citing an unverified statistic that puts the group in a negative light. Fast forward to Wednesday, and the White House announced they were rolling back the aforementioned Obama-era protections for transgender students that allowed them to use any bathroom they wanted at a public school. In response, Tomi Lahren decided to lash out and voice her opinion during the February 22 edition of "Final Thoughts" on the Blaze TV.

"So what has President Trump done today to fuel the left and mainstream media?," Tomi Lahren rhetorically asked to open up her "Final Thoughts" segment. "Well, he's ready to return America's taxpayer funded bathrooms and locker rooms to normal, how dare he, right?" Lahren said. Not stopping there, the popular conservative social media star then went on to attack recent news headlines for reporting that Donald Trump was allegedly attacking LGBT rights.

Lahren referred to the recent reporting on the issue as "fake news" that was being fed to the "buzz-word sheep of the left."

"The Trump administration will undo President Obama's free-for-all bathroom dictate which was an overreach and an infringement on state's rights in the first place," Tomi Lahren said.

Going further, Lahren went on to claim that Obama had created a "safe space for transgenders" but also for "creeps and pedophiles."

Tomi on Milo

Tomi Lahren continued her tirade by mocking the political left, stating that according the liberals, "You should be applauded for your 'trans-bravery' but if you are Milo Yiannopoulos and share your own abuse story, you are still vilified and unworthy of getting the slightest bit of compassion or forgiveness." Lahren concluded her segment by accusing liberals and Democrats of being hypocrites in their attacks on conservatives.
