During the Wednesday, August 12, broadcast of Piers Morgan Uncensored, left-leaning social media personality Joanne Carducci (known online as "JoJoFromJerz") exploded at conservative commentator and January 6 insurrectionist Elijah Schaffer.
The panel was discussing the WNBA and the broader cultural conversation surrounding women's sports.
The Pair Argued About Women's Sports

Joanne Carducci told Elijah Schaffer to shut up on-air after he dissed women's sports.
“We’re here arguing about a sport that no one wants to watch… I don’t care about women’s sports, and neither do most Americans, because of the same reason we don’t get super excited about the Special Olympics — they’re very similar,” he said.
He further claimed that if women cannot compete at the same level as men, "maybe they weren't designed... that's not what their purpose is — to be athletic and be competitive.”
As Schaffer began pivoting to a point about transgender athletes in women's sports, host Piers Morgan and Fox News contributor Tyrus cut in, who allowed Carducci to respond.

Joanne Carducci cursed out Elijah Schaffer on 'Piers Morgan Uncensored.'
Carducci, 51, slammed his remarks as a "nine-layer dip of just f---- what the f--- dude.”
Carducci told Schaffer to "shut your f------ stupid a-- up.”
Schaffer attempted to mock her reaction by predicting her next insult, prompting Carducci to fire back with a personal comment about him, leading to a heated exchange.
“Your p---- is small!” Schaffer joked.
Carducci fired back, saying, “Look, you said your p---- is small. I didn’t say your p---- is small, dude. I don’t want to ever think about your p----.”

Elijah Schaffer Was at the January 6 Riots

Elijah Schaffer claimed he was at the Capitol during the January 6 riots just to report on the chaos.
The clip quickly went viral online as one of the show's most volatile panel clashes of the summer.
Schaffer is best known as the host of the political podcast "Slightly Offensive" and as the CEO and founder of the independent conservative media platform RiftTV.
He rose to national prominence in 2020 during the Black Lives Matter protests, positioning himself as an on-the-ground right-wing videographer capturing the moments.
Schaffer was present inside the U.S. Capitol during the January 6, 2021 attack. He later stated he was there strictly on assignment to record the event, though he faced scrutiny for posting photos of emails from a computer inside Speaker Nancy Pelosi's office

Joanne Carducci is popular on social media for her anti-Trump views.
Although long associated with the MAGA movement, Schaffer publicly declared he was "done w/ MAGA" in March. He explicitly cited that a "Iran War is a line too far." He has since criticized loyal MAGA supporters.
In late 2025, country musician Alexis Wilkins (the girlfriend of FBI Director Kash Patel) filed a high-profile defamation lawsuit against Schaffer and other influencers for falsely labeling her a foreign intelligence agent.
In early 2026, Schaffer’s personal life became the subject of heavy social media speculation after he posted and deleted erratic messages claiming his wife and children were missing and accusing the FBI of targeting him. Public records showed he filed for divorce in Palm Beach County, Fla., following the exposure of an extramarital affair with a conservative colleague.
