Sony Hostin, a co-host of ABC’s The View, slammed former secretary of State Mike Pompeo, former President Trump and other Republicans who have critiqued President Biden’s recent prisoner swap deal with Russia.
Co-hosts Whoopi Goldberg and Alyssah Farah Griffin noted that the Trump administration negotiated the release of 5,000 Taliban members in Afghan prisoners in 2020.
“I think it’s just the sheer hypocrisy of it because I have, and I’ve said it here, always felt, umm, conflicted about negotiating with terrorists because I do think it will encourage a terrorist to grab other Americans,” Hostin said on the daytime talk show on Monday.
Pompeo said during an appearance on Fox News on Sunday slammed the Biden administration for releasing convicted Russian arms trafficker Viktor Bout for WNBA start Brittney Griner, who had been jailed in Russia for nearly a year.

Just another illustration of how the left uses imbecilic off target analogies to support their misguided assertions.

WE CAN ALL AGREE THAT THE UGLINESS WE SEE AND HEAR ARE NOT ANY WHERE CLOSE TO THE DEFINITION
Hostin is a closed-minded racist like virtually all The View. Or The Spew.
You mean ending a 20 year debacle that costed billions of dollars and 1000s of lives isnt the same as springing an entitled antiamerican loser?
That prisoner release was probably for an honorable exit out of Afghanistan which Biden botched and cost American lives.
Hostin is a retard that barely reaches the bimbo level of intelligence. A real idiot.
Sunny needs to go behind a cloud (Whoopi, who is always in a fog)🤓 and shut up...
When Bout was first captured the LSM labeled him the “Merchant of Death”. Now that a Democrat is releasing him they’re falling over themselves to portray him as a gentle soul who has paid his debts and who is no longer any threat. Imagine the howls if a Republican president had made this deal. The hypocrisy is mind-blowing.
