ABC’s The View celebrated Martin Luther King Jr. Day by literally laughing at the idea that white people could be discriminated against in any way. While they were laughing at the notion and suggesting it wasn’t real, staunchly racist co-host Sunny Hostin defended the idea of discriminating against whites and claimed that President Trump was trying to “erase” black history. Additionally, moderator Whoopi Goldberg openly mocked the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) for caring about discrimination against white people.

Sunny Hostin has long been a prominent voice on issues involving sexual misconduct allegations and the treatment of accusers. In October 2018, while discussing the confirmation battle over Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, Hostin drew criticism after arguing that "a woman's word is enough," a statement opponents said conflicted with traditional due process principles. The comment in essence says that accusations alone should carry decisive weight when evaluating misconduct claims. (Kristine Marsh, "ABC Legal Analyst Sunny Hostin Argues Against Due Process: 'A Woman's Word is Enough!'", MRC NewsBusters, October 11, 2018.

NEW YORK, NY — According to sources, Vice President JD Vance stumbled upon an incredible discovery on Tuesday when he made contact with a tribe of illiterate, feral women. The all-female tribe was discovered in a television studio where anthropologists believe they ate garbage and pretended to put on a show for their pantheon of primitive gods.

Vance took copious notes while in their presence, hoping to get his findings to a local university so the tribe could be further...

All six View cohosts-united on the air for the interview, with Goldberg saying, "We’ve been asking our next guest to join us for a while now, so we’re glad he’s taking us up on the offer today."

Benny Johnson@bennyjohnson JD Vance Just EVISCERATED The Hosts of The View over their false claims about Donald Trump and Epstein LIVE On-Air:"One of the things you see in the Epstein emails is the Jeffrey Epstein hated Donald Trump. Donald Trump literally reported Epstein to the police.""He threw Epstein out of his club when he found out he was a creep and reported him to the police.

Vice President J.D. Vance went on The View Tuesday morning in the vain hope of talking about his new faith-focused book, Communion.

Rosie O’Donnell has found a fresh start, and a healthier future, by leaving America. The A League of Their Own star, who fled to Ireland when longtime rival Donald Trump returned to office in 2025, took to Instagram on Tuesday, April 28 to post an image of a Women.com article which noted that her “Mounjaro face transformation is undeniable.” “I have diabetes 2.

In addition to the Nazi tattoo, the vile Reddit comments, and now a sexting scandal, the ladies of The View are turning on him.

Did a memo go out on the left that it’s time to dump this guy? How else can this be explained? This is what...

The View cohosts have reacted to former panelist Rosie O'Donnell's headline-making facelift — and the actress' comments about feminism as it relates to cosmetic procedures. Days after the entertainer and ex-View moderator revealed that she underwent a facelift procedure, the talk show's current panel broke down the development, with some expressing shock over O'Donnell making a connection between feminism and plastic surgery.

Disney has filed a petition with the FCC asking the agency to declare that The View is exempt from the statutory equal opportunities requirements that would otherwise apply to broadcast shows. Disney argues that The View qualifies as “bona fide news” under the law, comparing itself to Meet The Press or Face The Nation. Therefore, Disney argues, it can have one partisan candidate for office on The View while denying equal opportunities to all others. The FCC is now seeking public comment on Disney’s request to be labeled as “bona fide news.” Is The View a “bona fide news interview...

And the stuff that I do believe, I don’t want...

Whoopi Goldberg: This will come as interesting surprise to everyone. Do you know who just lost one of his biggest supporters over the ongoing war in Iran?

It's not enough to say, well, I changed my mind, or like, oh, this is bad, I'm out. It's like in very small ways, but in real...
