“The View” co-host Sunny Hostin revealed Monday she now “loves” Pope Leo XIV after discovering his “black” background. Hostin had previously expressed concerns about the new pontiff on Friday after his comments referencing the “homosexual lifestyle” resurfaced. On Monday, she spoke more optimistically about Pope Leo after learning his maternal grandparents were described as “people of color” on documents, with his grandfather’s original birthplace listed as Haiti. “There’s one other thing that’s very interesting to me because President Trump, as you remember, called Haiti a certain type of country,” Hostin said. “As it turns out, our new American pope has...

The ousted Democratic leader then asserted that had he not bowed out of the last presidential contest, he would have won — pointing to Trump getting “7 million fewer votes” nationwide than in their 2020 matchup. “A lot of people didn’t show up,” Biden said of the 2024 election. Asked by co-host Joy Behar why Trump remains “so fixated on you” and blames him for faults in the last administration, Biden replied: “I beat him.”

Former President Joe Biden claimed Thursday on ABC’s “The View” that then-Vice President Kamala Harris had “six full months” to run for president after he dropped out of the race on July 21, 2024 just over three months before Election Day. Co-host Sonny Hostin said, “Well, Mr. President, some have even argued that leaving the race and endorsing your vice president, Vice President Harris, a hundred, over a hundred days before the election hampered her campaign. What do you say to those critics? Biden said, “I say, number one, that there were still six full months. She was in every...

Attorney General Pam Bondi on Tuesday directed federal prosecutors to seek the death penalty against Luigi Mangione, the man accused of gunning down UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson outside a Manhattan hotel in December, 2024. Mangione, 26, faces separate federal and state murder charges for the killing. The federal charges include a charge of murder through use of a firearm, which carries the possibility of the death penalty. “Luigi Mangione’s murder of Brian Thompson — an innocent man and father of two young children — was a premeditated, cold-blooded assassination that shocked America,” Bondi said in a statement, as seen by...

Today, Attorney General Pamela Bondi released the following statement: “Luigi Mangione’s murder of Brian Thompson — an innocent man and father of two young children — was a premeditated, cold-blooded assassination that shocked America. After careful consideration, I have directed federal prosecutors to seek the death penalty in this case as we carry out President Trump’s agenda to stop violent crime and Make America Safe Again.”

“The View” co-host Joy Behar said Wednesday that there could be “backlash” against the Republican Party as the Trump Justice Department has ordered prosecutors to seek the death penalty for Luigi Mangione, who is accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. “He’s very popular, this guy, there could be a backlash,” she said. “All I’m saying is, politically, it could be a backlash against Republicans to give him the death penalty.” Attorney General Pam Bondi said on Tuesday that Thompson’s murder was “a premeditated, cold-blooded assassination that shocked America.” “After careful consideration, I have directed federal prosecutors to seek the...

Sara Haines, co-host of The View, has warned that the Democratic Party’s unhinged screaming and volatile behavior at rallies is not fixing the country and is making things worse for them. Whoopi Goldberg noted that progressive leaders like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., are engaging at rallies “at a moment when leadership roles on the left are wide open.” Goldberg also recalled how Sanders showed in his recent interview that he was “not ready to talk about future party planning yet.” Sanders recently accused ABC “This Week” host Jonathan Karl of asking a “nonsense” question about...

On Tuesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “All In,” Senate Minority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) stated that “Columbia didn’t do enough” to combat antisemitism but the Trump administration cutting off $400 million in funding to the school “is outrageous. It’s just aimed at the universities. If you have some instance where someone didn’t do something about antisemitism and should have, go after that person or that group, but this is aimed at hurting universities, and I think it’s spreading and I think it’s very, very wrong.” Host Chris Hayes asked, “Do you think this is a good faith attempt to deal...

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) took a shot at Senate Minority Chuck Schumer (D-NY) on Tuesday for his controversial vote with Republicans last week to avert a government shutdown. Pelosi, during a press conference in San Francisco, affirmed that she had confidence in Schumer’s ability to lead the Democratic caucus in the Senate going forward, but argued that the Brooklyn Democrat made too many concessions to Republicans when he abruptly announced that he would vote to advance the GOP-crafted government funding bill. “I myself don’t give away anything for nothing,” Pelosi said. “I think that’s what happened the other...

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) mocked so-called “greedy” Americans for wanting to keep more of their hard-earned money and wanting less government control over their lives. During an episode on ABC’s The View on Tuesday, Schumer spoke about the recent government spending bill, which President Donald Trump recently signed. As Breitbart News previously reported, Schumer explained that he voted in favor of keeping the government open because a “Republican Senator told Democrats the plan was to ‘decimate the entire federal government.”

Schumer mocks "greedy" Americans who want to keep more of their own money: "Their attitude is, 'I made my money all by myself. How dare your government take my money from me?'"

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) told the co-hosts of The View Tuesday morning that President Donald Trump was trolling him when he offered congratulations for the longtime senator’s role in averting the government shutdown. Schumer, promoting his new book on the talk show, was asked about the Trump message on Truth Social. Trump posted Friday after Schumer voted in favor of the continuing resolution, avoiding a government shutdown. SNIP “He was trolling me,” Schumer told panelist Joy Behar when asked about the Trump message. “I know this guy.” He added: “He’s trying to confuse people. He always tries to...

Wall Street Chuck accidentally gave Republicans a home-run GOP midterm ad Tuesday during an interview on “The View” in what might be his most cringe moment yet...... “The Republican Party is a different kettle of fish than it used to be. That’s why we’re fighting them so hard,” Schumer told “The View” ladies. “They are controlled by a small group of wealthy, greedy people. And you know what their attitude is? ‘I made my money all by myself. How dare your government take my money from me. I don’t want to pay taxes.’ Or, ‘I built my company with my...

For years now The View has been a rather successful show on ABC, why, I’m not sure as I fail to see the appeal. The original idea, via the show’s creator, Barbara Walters, was for a panel of women to discuss the issues of the day, great idea in concept. The problem is that The View was always a little bit slanted to the left, but if you run the show, you can do as you please, provided the show generates a healthy viewership, which in turn pulls in the big ad money. The View won awards for the show,...

The liberals are everything they accuse conservatives of being. During the Thursday edition of ABC’s The View, co-host Joy Behar went on an anti-immigrant tirade directed at billionaire Elon Musk. She viciously attacked him for being born in South Africa – something he had no choice in, accused him – without evidence – of being “pro-apartheid,” a “foreign agent” and “enemy of the United States,” and when she finally was told he was a naturalized citizen, she scoffed and wondered if he came in illegally. And in an apparent attempt at heading off a possible defamation suit, she begged Musk...

Joy Reid faced an emotional moment after her show was finally canceled following months of disappointing ratings. Despite having previously mocked white people's tears in a viral segment, Reid couldn't contain her own liberal tears as she confronted the end of her program, which primarily focused on her disdain for President Donald Trump and how conservatives are " racist. " Many noted the irony of the situation, as her public display of emotion starkly contrasted with her past criticism, provoking backlash from viewers who feel no empathy for her meltdown. On Monday, Reid posted a video of herself crying on...

The fiery hosts at ABC News’ “The View” have faced pressure to dial back their anti-President Trump rhetoric – leading to tension in front of the cameras, The Post has learned. While behind the scenes, “morale is low” among staffers after layoffs and unpopular cost-cutting moves, multiple sources told The Post. One source close to the show’s co-hosts — Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, Sara Haines, Alyssa Farah Griffin and Ana Navarro — said the fear and loathing is partly because Brian Teta, executive producer of the daytime gab-fest, spoke to staffers about “going easy” on Trump-related commentary in...

On multiple days this week, staunchly racist Sunny Hostin put herself on a pedestal above all Americans and proclaimed to be part of the superior racial demographic . . While co-host Joy Behar was falsely whining about Elon Musk personally going through her Social Security records and IRS filings, during Tuesday’s show, Hostin bloviated about how she was “resting” and letting others deal with politics since she and other black woman already tried to save the country

The confirmations of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to HHS and Tulsi Gabbard to DNI sent ABC News’s Joy Behar over the edge during Friday’s edition of The View. She became so unhinged that she cooked up an unfounded conspiracy theory that the reason so many GOP lawmakers had voted to confirm President Trump’s nominees was because he was threatening to kill their them and their families. And she was serious about it.

Ana Navarro told her co-hosts Monday on ABC’s “The View” that President Donald Trump’s administration welcomed “racists.” Navarro said, “The way JD Vance, you know, talked about it, ‘I don’t think stupid social media activity should ruin a kid’s life.’ Okay. This wasn’t years and years ago. These tweets, they were months ago. So, if he’s such a kid, what the hell is he doing having access to sensitive information at practically every department in the federal government? She continued, “But, you know racism like this could ruin being subjected to racism, being the victim of racism, of discrimination, of...
