A well-known Canadian trans activist was caught on video hurling racial slurs at a journalist and threatening her child.

Jessica Yaniv, also known as Jessica Simpson and Jonathan Yaniv, was filmed outside a courthouse repeatedly shouting the ‘N-word’ at Drea Humphrey, a reporter from Rebel News.

Yaniv also showed Humphrey a picture of her child on his phone. “I have a picture of your kid by the way — wanna see?” he asked, holding the phone up toward her.

Rebel News’ Founder, Ezra Levant, later wrote about the incident.
“Our reporter Drea Humphrey has worked tirelessly to expose the truth about transgender extremist and serial predator Jonathan Yaniv. Now he’s coming after her with a vengeance, and he says he’s coming after her children, too,” he said.
Humphrey has been covering Yaniv’s legal battles, some of which Yaniv has lost—including being found guilty of assaulting Keean Bexte from The Counter Signal, who was working for Rebel News at the time.
At the time, Bexte had been attempting to interview Yaniv regarding two counts of weapons charges related to his brandishing of a stun gun on a Livestream.

Yaniv infamously made international headlines in 2018 when he lodged a complaint with BC’s Human Rights Tribunal over the fact that a women’s beauty salon refused to wax his male genitalia.
The Human Rights Tribunal ruled in favour of the salon’s decision, and against Yaniv.
