Fox News’s hit show “The Five” got heated after co-hosts Judge Jeanine Pirro and Jessica Tarlov got into a heated back-and-forth over a hot topic that has taken over Capitol Hill this week.

The panel began discussing Sarah McBride, a transgender who was recently elected as a representative from Delaware, who was at the center of a bathroom fight on Capitol Hill.

House Speaker Mike Johnson told the transgender member who was at the center of a bathroom fight to not use the women’s facilities. McBride agreed not to do so.

Johnson was reacting to backlash on Capitol Hill over Republican Rep. Nancy Mace’s bill that would have banned men from Congress women’s restrooms. That resolution made it clear that “allowing biological males into single-sex facilities, such as restrooms, locker rooms, and changing rooms designed for women, puts members, officers, and employees of the House who are female at risk of losing their safety and dignity.”

Pirro and Tarlov spoke about the situation and it did not take long for tempers to flare.

Below is a transcript of the exchange, via Grabien:

TARLOV: “This bill, it’s so nasty, and it’s for no reason. And good on Sarah McBride and good on the Democratic caucus for standing up for her because it’s so lame — “

GUTFELD: “That’s false compassion. That’s false compassion.”

TARLOV: “Really? Why? Do you think — would you ever notice, if Sarah McBride walked into the room, you’ve seen her, would you — “

GUTFELD: “That’s not the point. That’s not the point. What you are doing, you’ve got to step back and look. You are talking about a system that changes for a tiny percentage of people. You are asking a lot of people they have every right to say no.”

TARLOV: “Why didn’t she ever say anything before Sarah McBride existed?”

PIRRO: “Because she is confronted by this stuation in Congress.”

TARLOV: “Nancy Mace is not afraid of Sarah McBride.”

PIRRO: “Didn’t you learn that the American people don’t want this? That the majority of people don’t want to be kowtowing to a .01% of people who want to enter into my bathroom? I don’t want a guy who is dressed as a woman, who thinks he’s a woman, whether he has his thing or not, I don’t want him in my bathroom. I don’t want to think about him. I don’t want to Wash my hands near him. I don’t want him in there. You know what? Get your own freaking bathroom. Go in your own unisex — “

TARLOV: “She has her own bathroom.”

PIRRO: “Go in your own unisex bathroom.”

WATTERS: “What? She has own bathroom?”

PIRRO: “Wait a minute. All members of Congress have their own bathroom.”

TARLOV: “She said, ‘I will use my own bathroom.’”

PIRRO: “But you know what, good for Nancy Mace. Nancy Mace is doubling down and saying, on all federal properties. And by the way, people like Seth Moulton, we were giving him so much credit, why did he wait until after the election to talk about the fact, about men in girls’ sports? Why did he wait? Because they don’t have the chutzpah. Now that they lost, you better learn why you lost. You claim to be so tolerant. You are not tolerant at all. You have to be tolerant of the majority and they have to work their way around the majority. They’re not equal to everybody else in terms of Title IX, they are not a specific category. So fight in your own category and go to the bathroom in your own category.”
