Commentator Tomi Lahren suspended from 'The Blaze'

 Conservative political commentator Tomi Lahren has been suspended from The Blaze, according to the Daily Caller. 
 
 The suspension is in effect for at least a week, the Daily Caller reported. 
 
 The fallout for Lahren, who has her own show on The Blaze, began when she said she was pro-choice on The View. 
 
 "I am a constitutional, y’know, someone that loves the Constitution. I’m someone that’s for limited government," she said. "So I can’t sit here and be a hypocrite and say I’m for limited government but I think the government should decide what women do with their bodies. I can sit here and say that, as a Republican and I can say, you know what, I’m for limited government, so stay out of my guns, and you can stay out of my body as well.” 
 
 Among those criticizing her: The Blaze founder Glenn Beck. 
 
 Rule another label out. I am NOT a "constitutional". I believe in LIFE, liberty and property. Just an old fashioned "constitutionalist." — Glenn Beck (@glennbeck) March 17, 2017 
 
 Lahren tried to defend herself over the weekend, tweeting that she would not apologize for "being an independent thinker." 
 
 I have moderate, conservative, and libertarian views. I'm human. I will never apologize, to anyone, for being an independent thinker. — Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) March 18, 2017 
 
 On early Monday, Beck shot back at this: 
 
 Wait, libertarian views? Help me out on Trumpcare, stimulus, and executive orders. Trump is anything but libertarian. #intellectualhonestyhttps://t.co/jlt5sFvQMP — Glenn Beck (@glennbeck) March 20, 2017 
 
 Lahren's contract with The Blaze is up in September, the Daily Caller reported.

 Lahren’s show is suspended for at least one week starting Monday, according to TheDC’s sources. A source with direct knowledge of the situation previously told TheDC that Lahren’s contract with the company goes until September, but that she may leave the company before then.

 Lahren’s inflammatory style placed her at odds with other employees at The Blaze, as previously reported by TheDC. Tensions were high between Lahren and her coworkers at The Blaze even before she called pro-life conservatives hypocrites in an appearance on ABC’s “The View” on Friday. 
 
 In her appearance on The View, Lahren said she is pro-choice and called pro-life conservatives hypocrites, saying, “I can’t sit here and be a hypocrite and say I’m for limited government but I think the government should decide what women do with their bodies.” 
 
 Lahren’s denouncement of pro-lifers sparked a backlash from her coworkers, as well as other prominent conservatives. 
 
 In her typical adversarial style, Lahren fired back at critics on Twitter, saying, “I speak my truth. If you don’t like it, tough. I will always be honest and stand in my truth.” 
 
 Soon after Lahren’s tweet, a reporter at The Blaze, Kate Scanlon, tweeted, “There is no ‘my truth.’ There is only the truth.” 
 
 Another reporter at The Blaze, Kaitlyn Schallhorn, tweeted soon after: “Even Hillary Clinton didn’t call pro-life conservatives hypocrites.” 
 
 On Monday, founder of The Blaze Glenn Beck — in an unusual move — played a clip of Lahren seemingly flip-flopping on the abortion issue on his radio show. He also argued against Lahren’s stance that pro-life conservatives are hypocrites. 
 
 “I would disagree that you’re a hypocrite if you want limited government and yet you want the government to protect life of the unborn. It’s very, very clear. But it takes intellectual honesty, and it takes a willingness to actually think these things through and to do more than just read Twitter or Facebook to get your news and your political opinions. You actually have to study things — these things out in your mind. Especially at a time period like today,” Beck said. 
 
 “Bomb throwing is — bomb throwing in today’s world is dangerous. Freedom of speech, it’s not free. Speech isn’t free. It comes with a very high price tag. First, being intellectually honest and intellectually curious. Speech is not free. It comes with another cost and usually to the other people at the other end of your argument. The pen is mightier than the sword, and it can destroy people if your aim is clicks, views, and ratings,” he continued. 
 
 It remains unclear if Lahren’s suspension is directly related to her appearance on The View. 
 
 A source with direct knowledge of the situation previously told TheDC that the chances of The Blaze keeping Lahren on past September were “pretty near zero” even before her appearance on The View. 
 
 Lahren, who is just 24, achieved national recognition for her political rants in a segment of her show called “Final Thoughts.” 
 
 Those segments, which often tackled polarizing political issues like Black Lives Matter, regularly went viral on Facebook. 
 
 Lahren did not immediately return an email from TheDC seeking comment. 
 
 This story has been updated with additional information. ||||| Political commentator Tomi Lahren will likely be leaving The Blaze in September if not sooner, The Daily Caller has learned. 
 
 Lahren hosts her own show for The Blaze and has garnered national attention for her aggressive rants on politically-charged topics like Black Lives Matter, which frequently went viral on Facebook. 
 
 Lahren’s inflammatory, oftentimes angry style has placed her increasingly at odds with coworkers at The Blaze, The Daily Caller has learned, a situation that’s worsened after she called pro-life conservatives hypocrites. 
 
 In an appearance on “The View” on Friday, Lahren came out as pro-choice and called pro-lifers hypocrites, saying, “I can’t sit here and be a hypocrite and say I’m for limited government but I think the government should decide what women do with their bodies.” (RELATED: Tomi Lahren Took Joy Behar And ‘The View’ To School On Trump [VIDEO]) 
 
 Lahren’s denouncement of pro-lifers on national television Friday rankled many conservatives. 
 
 “Memo to @TomiLahren,” conservative radio host Steve Deace wrote on Twitter, “the hypocrisy is saying you’re for the Constitution, and then denying the right to life it guarantees.” 
 
 Conservative website The Daily Wire covered Lahren’s comments with the headline, “Tomi Lahren Explains Why She’s Pro-Abortion, Proves She’s Clueless About Conservatism.” 
 
 Lahren, who did not return an email seeking comment, appeared to fire back at critics on Twitter, saying, “I speak my truth. If you don’t like it, tough. I will always be honest and stand in my truth.” 
 
 Soon after, a reporter at The Blaze, Kate Scanlon, tweeted, “There is no ‘my truth.’ There is only the truth.” 
 
 Another reporter at The Blaze, Kaitlyn Schallhorn, tweeted,”Even Hillary Clinton didn’t call pro-life conservatives hypocrites.” 
 
 Beck retweeted a video on Twitter that criticized Lahren for flip-flopping on the abortion issue. He previously appeared to take a shot at Lahren on Twitter after she came out in defense of Milo Yiannopoulos. 
 
 Lahren is under contract with The Blaze through September, according to a source with knowledge of the situation, although she could be out even sooner. 
 
 “The chances of her being brought back [in September] were pretty near zero before yesterday,” the source said. Whether Lahren remains at the company until September is “up in the air,” according to the source, who added that Lahren is likely “talking to other people who might be willing to buy out her last six months.” 
 
 Lahren’s name has previously been floated as a possible hire for Fox News, whose two most prominent female hosts, Megyn Kelly and Greta van Susteren, left the network within the last year. 
 
 Beck did not return an email seeking comment regarding Lahren’s future at The Blaze. 
 
 When asked if Lahren was on her way out, Leon Wolf, managing editor of The Blaze, replied, “No comment.”
– Tomi Lahren, the young rising star of the right, has been suspended from her job at Glenn Beck-founded network The Blaze, sources tell the Daily Caller. Though the reason for her suspension, said to be in effect for at least a week, hasn't been confirmed, USA Today reports that the problem seemed to start when Lahren appeared on The View Friday and said she's pro-choice. "I can’t sit here and be a hypocrite and say I’m for limited government but I think the government should decide what women do with their bodies," she explained. "As a Republican ... I can say, you know what, I’m for limited government, so stay out of my guns, and you can stay out of my body as well." Backlash from her fellow Republicans quickly followed. Tension already existed between Lahren and some of her coworkers at The Blaze thanks to Lahren's "inflammatory" style, per the Daily Caller, and after her View appearance, some of those coworkers called her out on Twitter, accusing her of calling Republicans who oppose abortion "hypocrites." Glenn Beck was among those criticizing Lahren, and he even spoke about the issue on his radio show Monday: "I would disagree that you’re a hypocrite if you want limited government and yet you want the government to protect life of the unborn. It’s very, very clear," he said. "But it takes intellectual honesty, and it takes a willingness to actually think these things through and to do more than just read Twitter or Facebook to get your news and your political opinions." The Daily Caller had previously reported that Lahren may leave The Blaze before her contract is up in September.
