Tomi Lahren Claims Her Ancestors ‘Discovered America’ In Response To Nicki Minaj Calling Her Out For Her 21 Savage Tweet

BY ERICA DIAZ • 4 HOURS AGO

You guys ever meet that person who just keeps talking even when they know they’re wrong? Or who won’t back down even when confronted with facts? Or is right just because they say so and that’s it? For a lot of you, the person that came to mind was a toddler or young child. For some, it’s that awful ex. For Nicki Minaj, it’s Tomi Lahren. Recently, Tomi gloated about rapper 21 Savage potentially being deported. It struck a lot of people as strange considering Tomi had previously posted videos of herself rapping along to his music. To make matters worse, she gloated by using one of his own lyrics.

<snip>

With all of that information available to the public, Tomi’s gloat rubbed fans, nonfans, followers, and even other celebrities the wrong way. Even Cardi B, who Tomi has had previous issues with, called her out on it. One of the more surprising call-outs came from Nicki Minaj. Considering her lyrics and her almost cartoonishly over-the-top personality, people were kind of surprised with how well thought out and eloquent Nicki’s response was…. except that last part. That last part is the Nicki we all know and love.

Here’s Tomi’s response.



Let’s say, just for a moment, that we were going to roll with the Columbus discovered America thing … that still wouldn’t make Tomi right. Her ancestors were German and had literally nothing to do with the early colonization of America. They arrived in the 1900’s and were actually indicted for forging their immigration paperwork. Turns out the one doing the most complaining is the one with legitimately shaky citizenship ground – not the man currently sitting in an ICE detention center. So, we don’t know if you guys have noticed or not, but Twitter can be pretty quick to swoop in and proverbially swat you in the back of the head when needed. They got savage on Tomi – some might say they got … 21 savage. Puns are why we make the big bucks, people, roll with it.
