“The Five” got very tense on Monday when co-host Jessica Tarlov pitched a fit over Elon Musk trolling Hillary Clinton for her comments concerning the brutal attack on Paul Pelosi, followed by Greg Gutfeld telling her she was “too emotional.”

The clash occurred as the panel discussed a now-deleted tweet by Musk that hinted at Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi’s husband Paul being involved in some kind of relationship with his alleged unhinged attacker, David DePape.
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton immediately blamed Republicans for the vicious attack despite there being no discernible connection between the two.
“The Republican Party and its mouthpieces now regularly spread hate and deranged conspiracy theories. It is shocking, but not surprising, that violence is the result. As citizens, we must hold them accountable for their words and the actions that follow,” Clinton tweeted, not letting the emergency go to waste.
Musk responded to the tweet with his own snark, “There is a tiny possibility there might be more to this story than meets the eye.”

Tarlov proclaimed that Musk was “promoting complete lies” by making the comment which also linked to a website making allegations against Paul Pelosi and the police, accusing them of covering up what really happened that night.
“Elon Musk is the CEO of that company,” she clapped back. “Hillary Clinton — you can say whatever you want about her — but it has nothing to do with this.”
Gutfeld contended that Musk’s tweet was meant to “troll” Clinton for her unfounded accusation. He argued that it was a joke and it very much involved the former first lady.
Tarlov did not give a good, stable response. She attempted to invoke a Justice Department indictment where the suspect reportedly told investigators he wanted to break House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s “kneecaps.” She was literally enraged that Musk would dare to tweet about it.
Or perhaps he was driven to to take the action based on her constant lies, pandering justifications for Democrat authoritarianism or calling all Republicans “domestic terrorists”, “enemies of the state”, “enemies within”, “cowards”, “cultists”, “threats to our republic”…..

Gutfeld told her he felt she was missing the point of the tweet… that it had more to do with smacking Clinton than it did with the Pelosis.
“It’s not a joke,” Tarlov bit back, clearly offended. “Why did he take it down, then?”
“It is,” Gutfeld informed her. “Everybody takes things down. Look at you. You are getting too emotional about this. You should be enjoying the [free speech.]”

“Just because I’m at a higher pitch than you doesn’t mean I’m more emotional than you. It’s just estrogen,” Tarlov responded, insinuating that Gutfeld was being misogynistic which he clearly wasn’t.
When Jesse Watters got his turn at bat, he laughed and noted to Gutfeld that he had just “told a woman she was being too emotional.”
Tarlov responded with what looked like a threat, “HR watches this, by the way.”
Gutfeld didn’t miss a beat and replied, “Is that a threat? Good for you.”
“I’m not coming back for the D block,” Tarlov jokingly threatened.
