    Jenna Jameson is taking “an indefinite break from Twitter.” The declaration came after the former adult film star felt she was being attacked for her Jewish faith online.

    Alright I’m taking an indefinite break from Twitter. It’s near impossible to just have normal conversations without hundreds of people attacking me for the past I cannot change. 👋🏻

    I want to clarify why I’m leaving. My sobriety and faith are the most important things to me. I am being attacked for my faith. Being Jewish. I must protect my love for G-d above everything, my sobriety and strength stem from him and his grace.

    Jameson, who is outspoken about her conservative views, was tweeting during President Trump’s address on border security Tuesday.

    This is comedy reading all this left drama. #PresidentialAddress

    And then she started to receive hateful tweets. While replying to one comment (which has since been deleted), Jameson, 44, declared “Antisemitism is alive and well.”

    Antisemitism is alive and well my friends. https://t.co/KJOqKW0dHs

    Another person on Twitter insinuated that Jameson was going to hell because she is “conservative,” “Jewish” and a “hoe.”

    So what you’re saying is no one can out grow their pst and become better? By the way, I’m not a garden tool. https://t.co/W9m1w3S3pN

    In 2015, Jameson converted from Catholicism to Judaism for her Israeli-born fiancé, Lior Bitton. She got sober that same year and has been open about the positive impact it has had on her life.


    While Jameson is going on hiatus from Twitter, she didn’t say anything about Instagram. The model uses the platform regularly to share her weight-loss journey.

    Trump emergency declaration faces fights in the courts

    Anonymous: President Donald Trump once said taking executive action on immigration was an unconstitutional action that could lead to impeachment. Trump's past comments are at odds with his current plans to declare a national emergency and other executive actions to secure funding for a border wall. Trump made the comments on Fox News' "Fox and Friends" in November 2014 when asked about executive actions by then-President Barack Obama that would halt deportations for the undocumented parents of children born in the United States. "Now he has to use executive action and this is a very, very dangerous thing that should be overwritten easily by the Supreme Court," Trump said. "So we're looking now at a situation, it should absolutely not pass muster in terms of constitutionality, but it depends on what these justices do," he added. The White House did not return a request for comment. Trump was also asked if the Obama had committed any impeachable offenses. He said Obama could certainly be impeached for his executive action on immigration. "Well, he certainly did something that was unconstitutional," Trump said. "Now, it depends on Justice (John) Roberts. If he wants to just curry favor in the Beltway like he did with Obamacare, because that's the only reason he did it. Because he knows he was wrong, but it certainly depends on what happens. I mean, I think certainly he could be impeached and certainly they could shut down the government."
