On this late Saturday night, welcome back to DCBLOG and to our SocialPulse doubleheader covering this week in the MTV Trifecta. Earlier this evening, we brought you how the Season 4 cast saw this week's Are You The One? when our first love triangle of Season 4 was settled in the Truth Booth and one of the guys went into hysterics. But that pales in comparison to what we saw two nights later on Episode 8 of The Challenge Rivals III.
   Last week in Mexico, we saw a scary mission 400 feet above the South Mexican Shore as a cliff and a ride down the hill saw the teams flying down, and saw Nate & Christina become power team but squandered a golden opportunity to flip the script on this unpredictable season when they decided to put in AYTO's Amanda & Nelson instead of a Challenge veteran team and those two paid the price. Camila received unfortunate news from back home of her grandma's unexpected death, while she and Tony got into words in the club.
   But as it turns out, that's not the end to that saga, as this week a late-night blow-up threatens to once again go into a physical fight and the house has to step in. It's what happens afterwards that the house is thrown for a loop by the serious implications that fight has on the rest of the competitors. And those players then find themselves in yet another twist when they find themselves in The Challenge's first-ever last-minute surprise mission to see how long they can keep their wits in a preview of what might await them should they go all the way.

   All of the action, reaction and interaction of this hectic episode, the accompanying after show and its lead-up and aftermath await you after the jump. This includes the primary focus on this episode being the target of, not surprisingly, a twitter beef that happened after the episode aired. And after the diary, DC ExtraTime will begin a special two-part series providing a look at the Tragedy in Orlando through the eyes of two alums of The Real World here on this Pride Weekend.

- As we begin, please note there is explicit language in many of the tweets below, but they are kept uncensored in order to retain the heat of the moment. So if you are mature enough, please read with discretion. :-)
- Plus, if you haven't watched the episode yet, then do not proceed with reading this post. But need not worry...DCBLOG will compile all of these tweets into these posts after every episode so you won't be in the dark of how your favorites saw this all unfold.

Another fight, another disqualification, the most unusual mission in Challenge history and a twitter beef. Join DCBLOG for the 'Pulse of this week in Rivals III, coming up next.

@emmabsweigard: Beauty is skin deep baby. You are only as pretty as you are on the inside! 🌸
@amazedbykay: LMAO! I crashed @riv_gio periscope party & NOW its LIT! #AYTO
@stephenjohnii: Love has no team, no sides... It just makes your heart beat faster and the air harder to breathe ❤️🌹
@ohhhfrancesca: ❤️❤️❤ ️@asafgoren1 Always has my heart. Still a good person & a good soul and that's why we connected so quickly.
@emmabsweigard: You know.. I questioned some of the things I did on AYTO.. I wondered if I would look stupid, or weak, or whatever else ppl wanted to say
@emmabsweigard: But I decided today that I am so happy I stayed true to myself, stood up for what I thought was morally correct & didn't give in to pressure
@emmabsweigard: I choose to see the best in people for as long as I can, even if they don't want me to, and even if the world judges me for it. :)
‏@emmabsweigard: If being kind, & calm & collected isn't cool, I'm not in the business of being "cool". 🙋🏻

@ohhhfrancesca: Love my girls❤️ @Victoria_mWyatt @MilleGabriellee @emmabsweigard
@MTV_JohnnyDrama: It doesn't matter which season 1,2,3 or 4! @AREUTHE1 family sticks together! 😛✊🏻💯
@MikalaThomass: Okay to set the record straight.. I don't have a fake ass. I had my own fat transferred to my butt, and it looks wonderful 😘
@emmabsweigard: Men aren't after a "feature." They are after a package. Don't for one second think you can hold a MAN down with boobs or a booty baby...
@emmabsweigard: Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let the pain make you hate. Don't let the bitterness steal your sweetness.
@emmabsweigard: Take pride that even though the rest may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place
@emmabsweigard: It's ok to be the girl that men see & say "wow, something about her is so beautiful"...you don't need to be the girl that guys wanna bang.
@emmabsweigard: I promise you, that type of attention isn't long lasting, and you are worth so much more 💛
@emmabsweigard: Because when it comes down to it. Who cares if 250 men think you're hot? You can't marry 250 of them...find the man that loves your soul
@emmabsweigard: The answer is yes, yes you will get more attention, but is it worth it? For me personally, it isn't. You're more than a body.
@emmabsweigard: In my opinion, the lowest form of compliment I can receive as a women of God is that a man wants to have sex with me. That's it? See ya. 👏🏼
@emmabsweigard: I can't wait to find my Prince Charming that knows HIS self worth, and doesn't sleep around. He's worthy of being pure, too. 💛
@emmabsweigard: Sorry to preach. I am just so passionate about it. Some ppl don't realize that when they sleep around, they give away part of their soul.
@ohhhfrancesca: Currently with these two❤️ @tori_deal @IAMPMUNA https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CliFHBiVYAQiIHb.jpg
‏@riv_gio: On the phone with my tenderoni @amazedbykay
@emmabsweigard: If anybody is awake that wanted this.. part 1/3 "make up I used on @AREUTHE1" is up! 😘👄 http://bit.ly/28MYKKm
@tweetconnor180: Be a decent person today! Just be better than you were yesterday and the world will change! It's not hard !
@MtvMagicMike: Me myself and I for this next week. #fuckem
@MtvMagicMike: People ask all the time why I don't have a gf... I don't want a girl. I want a woman. Career, goals, routine, sense of self. #simpleastha74
@MtvMagicMike: Don't sacrifice ur happiness for money, I would rather smile with empty pockets than wipe my tears w/hundred dollar bills @tweetconnor180 🔥🔥
@hbarfield13: Can I nap for a living? 😏

@t_raines33: Raising your voice at a woman is no way to get your point across. I'm disappointed in myself and it's a lesson learned. #TheChallengeRivals3
@t_raines33: I do wish TJ would have talked to Camila and I on the side b4 making his decision. #TheChallengeRivals3
@t_raines33: A warning from him would have really opened our eyes. #WhatCouldHaveBeen #TheChallengeRivals3
@t_raines33: The warning he did give out was to the other castmates who got physical. Camila and I never touched each other. #TheChallengeRivals3
@t_raines33: Would've been nice to redeem our relationship in the house cause now we still have this lingering dislike 4 each other #TheChallengeRivals3
‏@t_raines33: Okay I'm done feeling sorry for myself and dwelling on it. Just had to get that off my chest. #TheChallengeRivals3

@MtvNateSiebs: Also she was already with someone else like a week after we broke up she was obviously looking for an out. Whether I pushed her to it or not
@MtvNateSiebs: Let the reunion be lit. I'll be the bigger person.
@MtvNateSiebs: And she has me blocked on all her shit,I do not care to see any of it.So please no more screenshots of her shit,dont tell me bout her snaps.

So, an eventful episode it was: Camila and Tony once again got into words, and this time the violence escalated to where it shouldn't be, and after he warned the house about it it was sufficient enough for TJ Lavin to give them the red card and a disqualification - the fourth such one this season. We also had an all-night challenge called in at last minute when TJ brought everyone to the jungle for the strangest challenge that we've seen in some time that kept those competitors up all night watching all sorts of crazy ish going on that, now, they have to look to their inner Stu, Phil, Alan & Doug and remember mariachis, an iguana and so many other things if they want to win control and cash.
   Now as this week ended without a resolution as far as who wins this thing is concerned, once again we'll be tabling the write-up for this Challenge episode to the WRAP for the next episode - meaning an extended Challenge recap on our Week 9 post next week. But, it doesn't mean that we'll ignore this episode entirely - we'll have some perspective on the Camila/Tony fight along with the other usual suspects coming up on this week's WRAP on Monday. Now, let's digress...

 #DCExtraTime 

TRAGEDY IN ORLANDO:

RW GO BIG'S CHRIS TAKES A STAND

In the past two weeks, there have been things bigger than the Trifecta take place in our imperfect world, and the biggest story in this country has been of the tragedies that took place in Orlando, FL two weeks ago Sunday. This weekend in a special two-part ExtraTime, we'll take a look at how two members of both the Real World family, and two who are even prouder to be who they are in this Pride month, have done their part to take action and remember the victims in the aftermath of the horrific Pulse nightclub shootings that killed 49 people on June 12th, and the death of singer Christina Grimmie two days earlier.

Credit: IG/@ChristopherAmmon

   First, it wasn't that long ago on Real World Go Big or Go Home, we saw roommate Christopher Ammon travel across state lines from Las Vegas to his hometown of Salt Lake City to confront the cult he spent his upbringing in and sent in his resignation letter from the Mormon LDS Church after their actions that took place which offended against the LGBT community. Now, in the aftermath of the tragedy that has united an entire nation of gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered and queer people, he has taken action once again, this time in the wake of a tragedy that's touched not only an entire country but especially the section of our society who was most affected that early Sunday morning.
   On Monday in Washington, D.C., the U.S. Senate was faced with legislation containing several gun control amendments, including proposed changes to the hit list of potential terrorists, universal background checks of those who purchase guns, and adding mental health considerations for gun purchases. But more than week after the shootings and a 15-hour Senate filibuster led by a New England Democrat to encourage Congress to act on gun control legislation, the GOP-controlled upper house of our nation's legislative branch voted 53-47 to reject that bill, and a tsunami of negative reaction ensured. In reply, on Wednesday members of the House of Representatives' Democratic Caucus staged a 2-day sit-down protest on the floor of the House chambers to demand legislation until they adjourned for the holiday break on Thursday, as the hashtag #NoBillNoBreak trended on Twitter and both President Obama and the Clintons gave their support.
   As the sit-in began in the south wing of Capitol Hill, Chris went to Twitter to once again take a stand, and this time he posted a list of what he called "The Deadly 53" with the message "to remind our senators WHO and WHAT they represent." His photo caption added, "These 53 Senators just blocked a bill that would have prevented the #Orlando massacre by preventing anyone suspected of terrorism over the last 5 years from buying guns." Then, he posted pictures of each of the 53 Senators (all but 2 are Republican) who voted down legislation that would've prevented not only the events in Orlando but also the deadly shootings in Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia Tech and in Tucson, AZ. Included in those put on blast included two early campaign opponents in Ted Cruz-TX and Marco Rubio-FL, President Obama's 2008 opponent John McCain-AZ, Orrin Hatch from Utah, and Kentucky Senators Mitch McConnell and Rand Paul. Those individual pictures' captions read, "Killer... I Support Homophobia, Racism, Hatred and Guns."

   Along with him resigning from the LDS on his Real World, this was the bravest and boldest move Chris has ever undertaken. He took the opportunity to go all in on the 53 people who decided to not take a stand against gun violence and didn't prevented the kind of atrocity that the world watched in horror two weeks ago. Yes, there was what happened when he turned his back on Jenna after all of the racism that cast a cloud over the most recent Real World. But he's earned more of my respect in putting this major issue in the forefront among the MTV community and demanding that the people take action to demand legislation that can prevent the events of June 12 from happening again in this country. If he can do what he did to get us interested in this serious topic and to contact our legislators everywhere, then we should too.
   We leave you with captions from two pictures Chris posted on his Instagram in the week after the tragedy.
- First, from a throwback pic he posted a week after the tragedy which is posted above: "A week ago, I took this picture. That was before #Orlando. Today after a lot of tears, meditation, and connecting with old friends, I finally woke up with a smile on my face again. The shooting at #pulsenightclub reminded me of how fragile and temporary life is. It reminded me how important it is to fight for what I believe in. Most of all: it reminded me to cherish every day that I have left on this earth. You never know when it may be your last. 💕"
- And the second IG post is of a tattoo depicting a story from early LGBT history: "This weekend has reminded me how important it is to tell and preserve queer stories. @josephbrycetattoo helped me to tell this "lost" queer story: the love story of Achilles and Patroclus, the first censored queer story in history. When Patroclus was struck down in battle, it inspired Achilles to rejoin the fight and to engage in the most glorious battle of his life. This is how I feel about the tragedy in #Orlando. Lives have been lost. Our brothers, our sisters, and our lovers. This should not discourage is: it should motivate us to action. Now is the time to fight. #orlandolove #PulseNightclub."

That is it for the 'Pulse of Episode 8 of Rivals III, the second of our DCBLOG doubleheader for this Saturday. Monday on DC WRAP in addition to our usual features there, we'll have some perspective on the fight that took place on this episode, plus part 2 of our Orlando special as we'll join another Real World & Challenge alum as he makes an emotional visit to the sight of the events of two weeks ago. We'll also be featuring this week's DC ExtraTime posts in their own, dedicated post on Monday for the sake of those who don't want to scroll all the way down past the tweets for these pieces.
   Meantime, tomorrow - or later tonight if you're on the East Coast - DCNOW @DC408DxNow will have the final match of the Copa America Centennial soccer tournament as Argentina and Chile square off for the title in New York City...we'll have that for you at 7PM Eastern on the live hub.
