A panelist was kicked off CNN host Abby Phillip’s show on Monday after telling another guest, “I hope your pager doesn’t go off” while discussing the rhetoric that erupted at the former’s New York rally President Donald Trump was distributed on Sunday.

The comment was made by conservative commentator Ryan Girdusky, founder of the 1776 Project political action committee, to Mehdi Hasan, a progressive commentator who is of Indian descent and Muslim.

The guest was ousted during a roundtable discussion CNN NewsNight with Abby Phillipin which panelists discussed the controversial language heard at Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden the day before.

Girdusky said during the segment that “the media” called “everyone who attended” the rally “Hitler” and “a fascist” and spoke out in support of the former president. Phillip interrupted Girdusky and said, “That didn’t happen.” Hasan then commented on Trump’s rally, attacking comments from speakers like comedian Tony Hinchcliffe and others who he said used “far-right language.”

“My problem is, I understand, no one wants to be called a Nazi. This is very inflammatory,” Hasan said, adding: “If you don’t want to be called Nazis, stop hurling rhetoric.”

Girdusky shot back at Hasan: “You’ve been called an anti-Semite more than anyone else at this table,” to which Hasan responded, “From people like you… I support the Palestinians, I’m used to that.”

Girdusky denied that he ever called Hasan an anti-Semite, adding, “Yeah, well, I hope your pager doesn’t go off.”

Girdusky was removed from the conversation after a commercial break.

Hasan has been an enthusiastic critic of Israel’s military response to the Hamas attacks on October 7, 2023. Girdusky’s comments appear to refer to a rigged pager attack Israel carried out in September against the militant group Hezbollah. The attack left dozens of people dead and thousands more injured, according to the Associated Press.
