GOP Candidate Slammed Over 'Disgusting' Reaction To Chrissy Teigen And John Legend's Pregnancy Loss

GOP Candidate Slammed Over 'Disgusting' Reaction To Chrissy Teigen And John Legend's Pregnancy Loss

Chrissy Teigen and John Legend are very public figures and have used their platform to advocate for progressive stances. They even tried to remove a lot of stigma around pregnancy and were very open with complications Teigen experienced while expecting.

This is why they were incredibly open when the unimaginable happened and they lost the child, despite the pain the situation caused them.


It was a very vulnerable thing to do, but one that hopefully made others who've experienced the same tragedy feel a little less alone.

However, that same vulnerability was attacked by a candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives in California.

Errol Webber decided this was the perfect time to shame Teigen and Legend for their views on pro-choice legislation.


While most comments about Teigen and Legend were sympathetic and offered condolences, the comment above from Errol Webber asks the couple to rethink their position on abortion. Again, this is right after they lost their pregnancy to a miscarriage.

Webber is currently running to represent CA-37 in the House. He is a big Trump supporter and is struggling to gain any traction against Democratic incumbent Karen Bass.

This may have been why he felt it necessary to cause controversy.

Webber wasn't the only one making comments in poor taste after a tragedy. Conservative personalities Diamond and Silk questioned Teigen's photo, and sports journalist Jason Whitlock felt the moment might have been better kept private.

However, bereavement photography is a legitimate service offered and can help families deal with the grief of the loss of a baby. Additionally, Teigen had been very purposefully open with her issues with this pregnancy, and this was the unfortunate end.

Sharing it can provide closure for both people who've experienced this, as well as for Teigen herself.

Which is why this noble moment shouldn't be used to score cheap political points.





Our hearts and thoughts go out to Teigen and Legend as they deal with this tragedy. If anything can bring them some semblance of peace during this time, we hope they find it.

Meanwhile, if you're in California's 37th district, you're probably already voting for Karen Bass, but you might see about supporting her campaign anyway. She likely doesn't need the help to win against her opponent, especially since he likes running his mouth on Twitter, but participating in our democracy is a good habit all the same.

GOP Senator Gets Blunt Reality Check After Comparing Trump Tariff 'Pain' To Home Renovation

Montana Republican Senator Tim Sheehy was criticized after he tried to compare the "short-term pain" of President Donald Trump's tariffs to home renovation, a claim so ridiculous that CNN's Kaitlan Collins quickly pushed back on the analogy.

Trump has repeatedly referred to April 2 as “Liberation Day,” pledging to impose tariffs—taxes on imports—to reduce U.S. reliance on foreign goods. He has framed these tariffs as “reciprocal,” aiming to match the duties other nations place on American exports.

Liberal Wisconsin Judge Calls Out Elon Musk In Victory Speech—And It's Everything

Liberal judge Susan Crawford called out billionaire Elon Musk in her victory speech after winning a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, basking in successfully beating her Republican opponent Brad Schimel and ensuring that the nonpartisan court’s narrow 4-3 liberal majority remains intact despite Musk's efforts to sway the race.

Musk fueled the high-stakes race, having poured more than $20 million into supporting Schimel, according to state campaign records. That includes $3 million to the state Republican Party—$2 million of which was donated just last week. Due to state election laws, large contributions must be funneled through political parties before reaching candidates.

People Describe The Worst 'Bonus' They've Ever Gotten At Work

Most of us have worked at one problematic workplace, with reasons ranging from toxic coworkers to terrible bosses to unlivable pay. Sometimes, it feels like a joke that the employees are even being paid at all!

But the biggest joke of all might be the end-of-year bonus, or lack thereof. They're at times so laughable, they take the cake for horrible work conditions, or are quite literally, a slice of cake.
