Sports broadcaster Michele Tafoya joined The View‘s panel as guest host, but the other panelists were not ready to play ball with her. Almost immediately, the conservative TV personality was defending anti-vaxxers and pushing back against critical race theory, inciting a flurry of debates with Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, and even Whoopi Goldberg. As the moderator, Goldberg started today’s The View with a bit of an unusual disclaimer as she introduced Tafoya. “Just wanna let you know that, over the years, voicing our opinions at the table can be met with mixed reviews from the public,” Goldberg said. “I know...

On Tuesday’s airing of “The View”, co-host Whoopi Goldberg proposed a wild suggestion when she advised “white people” to “step up” and not make skin color an issue in America. While The View has always been known for spreading some of the most outrageous liberal theories, even the guest, Michele Tafoya, a sports reporter for NBC, was confused. It was Tafoya who started the whole conversation by asking the audience why children are being taught so much about skin color in the first place.

A surefire sign that you’re losing an argument is when you resort to personally attacking your opponent. After Democrats lost in Virginia’s gubernatorial election Tuesday night, the media pulled out the race card from 2016, saying that the Republican candidate won because of racist whites (even though Republicans also elected the first black female lieutenant governor). That pity party continued on The View Wednesday where they discussed the Virginia race. For the second day in a row, the liberal co-hosts shouted down their conservative guest host, NFL reporter Michele Tafoya, for pushing back on their DNC talking points about Critical...

A former host of The View admits they were frightened by Rosie O’Donnell. The ex-co-workers sat alongside one another at the show’s Hot Topics table for some time, but their relationship didn’t get off on the right foot. O’Donnell “scared the bejesus” out of Nicolle Wallace, who only lasted one year before exiting the daytime talk series.(snip) Variety reported that when ABC hired Wallace, she was told ABC executives wanted an “intelligent, measured Republican” to debate alongside moderator Whoopi Goldberg, O’Donnell, and Rosie Perez. However, Wallace’s experience on The View was unlike what she initially anticipated upon taking the job.(snip)...

Guest co-host Gretchen Carlson said Tuesday on ABC’s “The View” that if former President Donald Trump promoted the COVID vaccine to his supporters, the pandemic would be over by now. Carlson said, “The problem with this vaccine, as we all know, is that it’s been politicized. People didn’t necessarily politicize the Polio vaccine, or at least today they don’t.”

CNN’s S.E. Cupp argued Tuesday that voters had “heaped huge expectations” on President Joe Biden and shouldn’t expect him to fix everything in just nine months. Cupp joined ABC’s “The View” as a guest host, and when the conversation turned to the battle to pass both the bipartisan infrastructure bill and the $3.5 trillion reconciliation package, she argued that some people might have expected too much of the president in the early months of his administration. [cut] Joy Behar began the segment by noting that Biden’s approval ratings had not been stellar, and she asked Cupp whether passing the infrastructure...

Two hosts of “The View” tested positive for COVID-19 on Friday in advance of a planned sit down interview with Vice President Harris, causing the show to shift gears and announce plans to interview Harris virtually as a precaution. Sunny Hostin and Ana Navarro tested positive for the virus, Joy Behar announced live on air Friday morning, after both co-hosts were awkwardly ushered off the set and the program went to a commercial break. Behar said that both Hostin and Navarro have been fully vaccinated and had breakthrough cases.

Joy Behar told her co-hosts Wednesday on ABC’s “The View” that if former President Donald Trump was indicted, she would throw a “big party” because she was feeling “schadenfreude.” Whoopi Goldberg said, “You-know-who is back in the headlines thanks to New York’s D.A. convening a special grand jury in their investigation of whether he had a hand in his business committing criminal bank fraud, insurance fraud, and tax fraud, among other things. Of course, he’s denying all charges with his go-to it’s a politically motivated witch hunt claim. Joy, do you think he’s really worried about all this?”

So, what crime would you charge, Mr. President? The closing weeks of the campaign find President Trump berating William Barr, the attorney general who has served him and the country well. Trump’s increasingly strident complaints relate to the probe of his 2016 campaign, launched by the Obama administration. At Barr’s direction, the genesis and conduct of that probe have been under investigation since early 2019 by Connecticut U.S. attorney John Durham, a well-regarded career prosecutor.

A very self-assured Stacy Abrams indulged the hosts of 'The View' with lies about [the real] Governor Brian Kemp’s plan to reopen much of Georgia’s economy Stacy Abrams may have lost the Georgia governor’s race in 2018, but that hasn’t stopped her from pretending she is one, imitating other governors like Whitmer and Brown in their fear-based responses to the COVID-19 pandemic and fundamentally distorted views of economic policy. She took time out of her busy schedule running for vice presidential nominee yesterday to indulge the ladies of “The View” with all the satisfying lies rich and isolated people who...

"The View's" hosts Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar joined the chorus of liberal pundits and Democratic politicians by blaming President Trump for the Iranian military shooting down the Ukrainian airplane. The airplane flew out of Tehran's international airport the night their military fired dozens of ballistic missiles at bases in Iraq that house American troops. The attack was in response to the U.S. military killing Iranian general and terrorist leader Qassem Soleimani. The Pentagon said the strike was necessary because Soleimani was planning on carrying out more attacks against Americans in the region. Host Sunny Hostin asked Rep. Adam Schiff...

"The View" host Joy Behar told Democrats to not tell Americans their plans for gun control and to wait to take away firearms until after they are elected on Monday. The panel was discussing the recent dropouts of the 2020 Democratic primary and who might be next after former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke ended his campaign on Friday. "Beto, when my husband told me he got out of the race, I think he’s actually like a beta test for why going so national and being beloved by the media is so dangerous," host Meghan McCain said. McCain said despite how...

"The View" host Joy Behar took her anti-Trump talk to another level on Thursday, posing the possibility of the president being charged with hate speech in the wake of Wednesday's controversial rally. Behar kicked off the comments by saying she does not understand how President Trump could "get away with" attacking freshmen congresswomen the way he had, before launching into the next part of her diatribe. "Why can't he be brought up on charges of hate speech?" Behar asked. She then wondered why the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), which has repeatedly sued Trump's administration, hadn't sued the president over...

Barbara Walters on Wednesday told Joy Behar she's so offensive to so many people they will give money to folks she doesn't like. This marvelously was "The View" co-host's response to Nevada Republican senatorial candidate Sharron Angle raising $150,000 online after Behar called her a bitch on Tuesday's program. WALTERS: "She has a sense of humor." BEHAR: "Well, I don't know if it's a sense of humor, but I’d like to point out that those flowers were picked by illegal immigrants and they're not voting for you, bitch." WALTERS: "What it also says is that you are so offensive to...

For saying that prayer takes the place of thinking.

Perhaps the strident liberalism of Rosie O'Donnell and Joy Behar is emboldening Barbara Walters? On the Monday edition of The View, the ABC journalist insisted that America went to war with Iraq without knowing the facts and she fretted about how "the most brutal pictures we saw were the pictures of Saddam Hussein being hanged. We have not seen some of, some of the terribleness that have happened to our men and women." Walters made her assertions following comments from the liberal Rosie O'Donnell, who touted the fact that she wore a "No War" T-shirt prior to the 2003 invasion,...

The View gang ganged up, though politely, on a guest on Tuesday who dared to suggest that abortion may not always be a wonderful experience. Actress Jennifer O'Neill came aboard to promote her “Silent No More” campaign and told how she regrets having an abortion and how pregnancy sites with which she's affiliated inform mothers of the physical and emotional risk of an abortion.      Her variance from the “pro-choice” line clearly appalled the regulars on the ABC daytime show, especially Joy Behar and former NBC News reporter Star Jones, though former CBS News reporter Meredith Viera also revealed...
