After generating substantial backlash this week for rolling her eyes at a survivor of Hamas’ October 7 terrorist attack, Briahna Joy Gray, a far-left commentator and former staffer for socialist Senator Bernie Sanders (VT), was terminated by The Hill on Thursday.
Gray, who is currently a former co-host of The Hill’s “Rising,” shared a screenshot of the email she claims she received, which informed her that she would no longer be employed by the company.

Gray’s decision was precipitated by an interview with Yarden Gonen, the sister of Romi Gonen, who was abducted by Palestinian Islamic militants affiliated with Hamas during the October 7 massacre.
At the conclusion of the interview, Yarden Gonen expressed her optimism that Gray would accept the testimony of Israeli women who claim to have been sexually assaulted during the October 7 atrocity.
Gray then appeared to roll her eyes and express annoyance at Yarden Gonen, resulting in the termination of the interview.
Words cannot express my utter contempt for Briahna Joy Gray. The way she rolls her eyes at the suffering of innocent civilians kidnapped and raped by Hamas. A deeply, deeply depraved person with a shrivelled heart.
