Black MAGA Influencer Stunned When Ken Paxton Forces Her To Leave Rally After He Assumed She Was A Democrat
Most people, across the political spectrum, believe her race was the basis for the Paxton campaign targeting her on sight. Thelma Louise stated she had just filmed footage to share online, but wasn't being disruptive in any way.
She took to her TikTok to share her woes, with her first video also going viral on X after conservatives and liberals shared it.
You can see her first video about the incident here:
The MAGA minion said:
"Oh my gosh. I cannot believe this. Someone just came up to me and said that Ken Paxton’s campaign manager wanted me to leave. I am just … My mouth is wide open right now. I really can’t believe this."
After asking if there was someone she could talk to about being targeted for removal, and being told no, Thelma Louise shared:
"I was just asked to leave this event, and I did nothing wrong... I drove two hours to be here."
"And I have done nothing but support everyone on the Republican side, and this is how I get treated?"
A commenter on her TikTok post replied:
"You forgot, and they just reminded you."
Wiping away tears in her second video, the self-described MAGA Republican President Donald Trump loyalist asked why she was removed and banned without explanation by Paxton’s campaign manager.
Thelma Louise said she left the Democratic Party two years ago and had volunteered for Trump's 2024 presidential campaign.
"I put everything in. I worked my butt off. I was a ‘Trump force’ captain."
But despite everything, she stated she didn't blame the GOP at all for how she was racially profiled at a Republican event.
She added:
"[Republicans] have loved me, and they have welcomed me with open arms. But Ken Paxton’s campaign manager, that person is 100 percent responsible for the disrespect that I received this evening."
"This, I will never forget. Never. This was beyond disrespectful."

People had difficulty feeling any sympathy for Thelma Louise.

Others questioned Thelma Louise's motives, asking if she was a true believer or a grifter.

While Thelma Louise's choices and opinions are hers to live with, Trump himself has provided ample evidence of racism and misogyny as a feature, not a bug, in his MAGA movement.
From the way the POTUS speaks to and about women, especially Black women journalists, to his long history of racial discrimination and racist rhetoric, to his continuing relationships with White supremacists, no one should be shocked by racial bias or misogynoir in the MAGA GOP.
Andrew Garfield Reveals The Disgusting Thing He Once Found In Robert Pattinson's Bedroom—And Yikes
Though Garfield didn't live with them, he frequented their home and was quite comfortable moving through their space. On Capital Breakfast, he shared how he'd once ended up in Pattinson's bedroom, only to discover a half-eaten cheeseburger that had to be at least a few days old and had cigarette butts pressed into the top of it, clearly too old to eat but just right for putting out smokes.
While recalling the memory, Garfield was a mixture of amused and grossed out.
"I remember going up into his room at one point, and I think there was like a half-eaten cheeseburger from four days previous with cigarette butts put out on the thing."
"It was like that vibe. It was students. We were students, ostensibly. We were just like actor students, and we were just absolute messes."
You can watch the segment here:
Though Garfield seemed perplexed by the memory, fans sort of shrugged it off as typical Pattinson behavior.

Since his Twilight days, rumors have swirled about Pattinson's personal hygiene and cleanliness, or lack thereof. Though he might want to distance himself from it, it's hard to forget he was Edward Cullen when fans keep getting reminded of that era.
While there are plenty of examples of creative people who keep messy homes and appearances, it's also an interesting element that Pattinson brings to his characters.
Ohio Democrat Rips Vivek Ramaswamy For Using Estranged And Abusive Mother In 'Disgusting' Attack Ad
Acton has long said that she became estranged from her mother when she was a child, after her stepfather was charged with raping her at age 12. He pleaded not guilty, according to decades-old court records published by the Acton campaign, and reportedly later fled the state.
Although Acton has not discussed the childhood abuse during her campaign, she recounted the painful final encounter with her mother in a 2019 interview with The Youngstown Vindicator, recalling that "in the courthouse after they were charged, I went to give her a kiss, and she just turned her cheek away. That was the last time I ever saw her."
But now Ramaswamy's campaign has dropped an ad featuring Acton's mother, Donna Arthur, urging Ohio voters not to vote for her daughter on November 3, at one point saying:
"I love my daughter, but when I saw her lying about her opponent — and it's not easy for a mother to say this — that Amy has a serious problem. Amy is a liar. She lies about her past. ... She's lied her entire life. My daughter needs help." ...
“Don’t let her become your governor. If you think she’ll make your life better, you’re fooling yourself. It will only get worse.”
You can see the ad below.
Facing criticism for the ad, Ramaswamy's campaign spokesperson Connie Luck said the following in a statement to Politico:
“We don't know what happened between Amy and her mother, who first spoke out about Amy in 2020, but we know that Amy Acton is a serial fabulist who has some serious problems with the truth that the public needs to be aware of before deciding who to entrust as governor." ...
"Everyone who knows her best — her former boss, her former state colleagues, her fellow physicians, and now her own mother — are clearly warning Ohioans not to vote for her."
Shortly afterward, Acton responded to the ad and criticized Ramaswamy in an appearance on Spectrum News, saying:
“I won’t normalize somebody who has said that my childhood is just something I’m complaining about, who today just released an ad using my birth mother, who I was removed from at the age of 12 for severe abuse and neglect and sexual abuse. My brother and I were removed."
"I just can't normalize somebody who calls me things like a socialist, which I'm not, and then follows that statement by saying the Second Amendment was made for times like these to eradicate socialism, to get rid of socialists, that's what I am made for."
"The words our leaders use matter, and I think it's going to take courage right now from all of us to stop normalizing this sort of rhetoric. People need to see that this is a pattern. It was a pattern in the presidential debates."
"You know, I remember Chris Christie going at it with him. I remember Nikki Haley, because he was such a liar and he was attacking Nikki Haley's 14-year-old daughter on air during a presidential debates. You know, this is a lifelong pattern with my opponent."
You can hear what she said in t.he video below.
Acton's brother, Philip Stearns, also issued an official statement that was disseminated by Acton's campaign:
"It's not surprising that Vivek Ramaswamy has stooped to such a despicable low as to attempt to turn the sexual abuse Amy endured at twelve years old from our birth mother's husband into a political talking point."
"After he was arrested and Amy and I were removed from their custody, our birth mother stayed married to Amy's rapist until he died. This desperate, disgusting attack reveals exactly who Vivek Ramaswamy is at his core — a pathetic excuse for a man who is willing to hurt anyone as long as it gets him what he wants."

Critics have condemned Ramaswamy in response.
Ramaswamy remains unrepentant. People of Ohio, you can stop him in his tracks on November 3.
