Tomi Lahren Claims Her Ancestors 'Discovered America' After Nicki Minaj Calls Her a 'Fkn Clown'

Fresh off a mind-numbing beef with Cardi B, Fox Nation host Tomi Lahren is exchanging fire with another rapper, Nicki Minaj.

The latest Twitter spat got rolling when Lahren mocked rapper 21 Savage for getting arrested by ICE for allegedly overstaying his visa. ICE officials said 21 Savage, real name Shayaabin Abraham-Joseph, moved to the U.S. from the U.K. in 2005 and is currently in America illegally.

Lahren, who is apparently a fan of the rapper, mocked his arrest and potential deportation by quoting his hit song “Bank Account”:

Minaj fired back by accusing the Fox Nation host of being “obsessed” with her culture, adding: “You fkn clown.”

Lahren responded by claiming her “ancestors did discover America” and assuring Minaj that she hoped 21 Savage would be “able to get an entertainment visa or become a citizen one day.”

are all the other racists who are obsessed (envious?) of black culture.

And I had no idea 21 Savage was from the UK. He definitely doesn't sound like it when rapping! His managers really failed him by not getting his paperwork in order. SMH.

They were sailing across the rolling Dakota plains, when suddenly they saw a big sign! Bismarck! And they fell to the knees, and claimed the land for Robert the Bruce!"

Wasn't there a genealogist that just recently researched Tomi Lahren's family tree and showed they were immigrants as recently as the 1930's? She sure as shit is no Daughter of the Revolution.

Whose mother’s ancestry would do most old-line WASPs proud, and Tony-ette was talking trash about him, too.

And if Tony-ette can’t produce the pre-Colombian gew-gaws her presumed Viking ancestors took back to Iceland from the lands west of Greenland, I’d say her claim is also in doubt.
