She has been using her Instagram, with 2.4 million followers, to speak out on a range of political issues.
But it seems not everyone is a fan of Lisa Rinna’s political perspective.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star took to Instagram to blast so-called ‘Karens’ and QVC for muzzling her after viewers complained about her politically charged posts.

Posting to her Stories, the 56-year-old claimed that QVC told her to shutdown the talk of politics or risk her clothing line no longer being sold.
Her clothing line, Lisa Rinna Collection, has been sold on QVC since 2012.
‘I am sad to report. It would now seem I can’t use my platform to inform or question or say how I feel politically because the Karen’s [sic] have bombarded QVC begging them to fire me and saying they will no longer buy my clothes,’ she wrote.
She continued to say: ‘It is a shame that I must be muzzled in order to support my family but that is just what it is. Remember you know how I feel. Use your voice and vote.’

While she seemed to suggest she would be doing as told to pay her bills, she insisted her views would not change.
‘I will be on the right side of history and in the end THAT IS WHAT MATTERS MOST,’ she wrote.
She followed up the lengthy statement with another message on Wednesday writing ‘Hey Karen, f**k you.’

It is unclear what the ‘Karens’ were upset about.
