Allegation Regarding Pregnancy Discrimination

“I had no lunch breaks. I pumped when I found a minute, here and there, making sure I wasn’t interfering with anything that was on the schedule,”

Provocative Remark For Immigrants!
As controversies are just like boiling water for some journalists, Laura came under the media spotlight for her controversial remark for the immigrants. The news reporter on her TV show on 8 August 2018 slammed both legal and illegal immigrants ‘racist’ for destroying the United States that their native people love.
In the same show, she added that some part of the regions across the US and their people’s identity does not exist. Furthermore, Laura revealed that President Donald Trump's administration is working to limit immigrants' size.
After the bitter outspoken truth, Laura was backlashed by some senior-level authorities, including California representative Ted Lieu. Ted, a Taiwan immigrant, scorned Laura for her racist remark and posted a Twitter reply on 9 August 2018 and wrote,
Dear Laura Ingraham: I served on active duty to defend your right to make racist statements.
America is not a race or demographic. It's a beautiful & bold idea, based on life, liberty & the pursuit of happiness. You
@IngrahamAngle are no more American than I am or others are.
However, Laura defended herself on the Fox News Show, The Ingraham Angle, on 9 August 2018. She stated that her statement had nothing to do with ethnicity and background but was a harmonious message to keep fellow Americans safe and prosperous.
