Tomi Lahren: 'I'm Pro-Choice'

Tomi Lahren, the conservative commentator on The Blaze's "Tomi," says she supports abortion rights, which runs counter to many conservative viewpoints.

"I'm for limited government, so stay out of my guns, and you can stay out of my body as well," she told "The View" on Friday. 

"I am pro-choice, and here's why . . . I am someone that's for limited government, so I can't sit here and be a hypocrite and say I'm for limited government, but I think that the government should decide what women do with their bodies," she said.

Lahren's comments drew criticism, as those who oppose abortion said it was not possible for someone to be conservative while also being pro-choice, according to The Washington Post. 

Lahren responded Saturday in a series of tweets:

I speak my truth. If you don't like it, tough. I will always be honest and stand in my truth.

Listen, I am not glorifying abortion. I don't personally advocate for it. I just don't think it's the government's place to dictate. https://t.co/qRjbAtJdo7

Thank you. Conservatives don't have to exist in a monolith and share the same brain on every issue. It's okay. https://t.co/YqzJNcaRar
