Tila Tequila Seig Heils With White Nationalists, and a Restaurant Is Sorry

A Washington, D.C.-area restaurant apologized Monday for hosting a dinner during which Tila Tequila and friends did a “Seig Heil” Nazi salute that the former celebrity later tweeted.

Why is a Vietnamese-American woman named after a Mexican liquor aligning herself with white racists? Who knows? You may want to save your outrage over this — you’re going to need it for other things.

Maggiano’s Little Italy said on Facebook it had no idea its guests were part of the pro-white National Policy Institute, which held a weekend gathering in Washington where attendees spouted Nazi propaganda.

Tequila, whom you may remember from “A Shot at Love With Tila Tequila,” which aired on MTV nine long years ago, and whose Twitter banner displays her Photoshopped alongside Donald Trump wearing a Nazi armband, has lately spent her time courting attention with tweets like this one, from Monday:

“Women who complain about Trump saying, ‘Grab her by the pussy!’ Are retards because I love getting grabbed by the pussy! Lmao!”

There is a girl who works as a vendor at Citizens Bank Park (google Pistachio Girl),who is now a darling of the Alt-Right (nazi) movement. I read where she said she was coming back next year. As a game plan holder of the Phillies this should be interesting

If she enjoys undermining America's democracy with her embrace of all things Hitler and Aryan Nation, then isn't she an enemy of the state?

I'm betting if she self-identified as a Democrat they would be all over her Hitler-love like a sledge hammer. (reference intended)

Instead, they celebrate her hate of America - and if you're embracing fascism and Nazism, you hate America.

Course, these days, republicans are even loving them some commies. (irony alert)

Odd little clabberspores, aren't they? Embrace Putin and Hitler - it's like they have never even heard of the concept of history.

Of course I don't support deportation because of someone's opinion, but I do encourage ridicule and scorn of certain beliefs. Dangerous beliefs should never be encouraged or allowed to become acceptable.

that is a prime example of who the real enemy is. The south did have minorities in its army. This 2nd Civil War will be the same. No surprise.

I would not want their business. And yet nothing about this from our future president. If Donald Trump really wanted to prove that he is presidential material, he would denounce and disassociate himself from the hate crimes and white power rallies that are happening in his name. Instead he's on Twitter attacking the New York Times, Hamilton, and Saturday Night Live. Remember this is the guy who said he was the only one strong enough to take on Isis. This is not presidential behavior!
