&#8220;The View&#8221; co-hosts got into a heated discussion over the topic of anti-Semitism on college campuses — and Sunny Hostin argued repeatedly that students should be allowed to engage in protests calling for the genocide of Jews.
The conversation on Wednesday&#8217;s broadcast was a reaction to the Capitol Hill testimony from several university presidents that took place a day earlier — during which Harvard University President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/billionaire-donor-calls-on-harvard-mit-penn-presidents-to-resign-after-they-cited-need-for-context-in-calls-for-genocide-of-jews" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Claudine Gay</a> argued that calls for Jewish genocide only violated the school&#8217;s code of conduct in certain &#8220;contexts.&#8221;
Co-hosts Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar weighed in first, disgusted by what they had heard from the leaders of such prestigious institutions. &#8220;There is no justification,&#8221; Goldberg said.

Co-host Sara Haines argued that colleges had a responsibility to make sure that Jewish students felt safe on campus — and that especially following years of people being told that words were violence, there should be some consistency when the words were being directed at Jewish students.
Haines went on to criticize women&#8217;s groups worldwide for failing to speak up amid reports of Hamas terrorists using rape and sexual violence as weapons against Israeli women during the October 7 massacre.
&#8220;We had to &#8216;believe all women&#8217; and recently discovered the violent rape and mutilation in Israel and women&#8217;s groups around the globe were quiet or late to speak up,&#8221; she said.

Hostin jumped in then, saying that colleges were the &#8220;perfect place&#8221; to have discussions that were &#8220;uncomfortable&#8221; and argued that free speech should be absolute on college campuses, even if students were calling for genocide.
She went on to argue that &#8220;context&#8221; did matter, saying that if large groups were calling for genocide it was protected speech, but if one student issued the same statement directly to a Jewish student one-on-one, that was when it would constitute harassment.

&#8220;The View&#8221; host Whoopi Goldberg appeared to be hacked off over the fact that former President Donald Trump is allowed freedom of speech — especially since he has used that freedom to publicly blast the people involved in his current trial.
Goldberg registered her complaint during Tuesday&#8217;s broadcast of the ABC midday talk show, and she attempted to argue that his vocal complaints about the judge and prosecutors amounted to &#8220;threats&#8221; and would pose a risk to them and potentially others.

&#8220;Now, I understand that some folks say it&#8217;s freedom of speech, but if I did that, they would not consider it freedom of speech,&#8221; Goldberg continued, appearing to suggest that she would face consequences if she were to make public complaints in a similar situation.
&#8220;So why does he get to continue to threaten — and it&#8217;s threats like he did with January 6th,&#8221; she said. &#8220;He basically said, &#8216;Come after her.&#8217; He didn&#8217;t say exactly those words, but I don&#8217;t know how else you take those words — but why is he continuously allowed to do that when none of us would be able to?&#8221;
Later on in the segment, co-hosts Joy Behar and Sunny Hostin accused Trump of &#8220;hiding behind the First Amendment&#8221; — and Behar argued that he had done the same thing when he verbally attacked former Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Mark Milley and his own former Vice President Mike Pence.
Hostin went on to note that limited &#8220;gag orders&#8221; had already been put into place ordering Trump not to threaten potential witnesses in an effort to impact the outcome of the trial — but she also pointed out that those orders had not been terribly &#8220;expansive&#8221; and left him quite a bit of leeway.

The hosts of ABC&#8217;s &#8220;The View&#8221; twisted themselves into knots during Monday&#8217;s broadcast in an attempt to run defense for Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) and the brouhaha surrounding him pulling a fire alarm.
Bowman claimed that he had been confused by a sign labeling the door and &#8220;emergency exit&#8221; and warning that an alarm would sound if the door were opened — and for that reason, he said he believed pulling the fire alarm on the wall nearby would cause the door to open.

Cohost Alyssa Farah Griffin called Bowman out, saying that it appeared as though he had pulled the fire alarm in an effort to stall the vote — on the continuing resolution that would forestall a government shutdown — so that he could buy himself more time to read it.
Ana Navarro complained about the Republicans — President Donald Trump included — who have suggested that Bowman deserved to face the same charges as January 6th defendants (&#8220;corruptly obstructing, influencing, or impeding an official proceeding, or attempting to do so&#8221;).
Cohost Sunny Hostin weighed in as well, suggesting that the doors were &#8220;suddenly&#8221; closed in an effort to prevent him from having access to the CR in order to read it.
Whoopi Goldberg said that she would have done the same thing, arguing that he clearly just wanted to get the door open.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
CONSPIRACY THEORY TIME: Whoopi says the &quot;point&quot; is that the door was closed to prevent Bowman from reading the CR and stop him from voting: &quot;I would have pressed whatever I had to press to get the door open because I know you would expect me not to be there to vote.&quot; <a href="https://t.co/Pv7lfpZ4j8">pic.twitter.com/Pv7lfpZ4j8</a>

Her final assessment appeared to line up with what Hostin had said, and she reiterated her initial position — namely that he was being kept from getting to where he needed to be to vote.
&#8220;I would have pressed whatever I had to press to get the door open because I know you would expect me not to be there to vote,&#8221; she said.
Bowman remains the subject of two investigations into his actions.

Whoopi Goldberg blew up at Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) during a heated debate over abortion, scolding her for pointing out that there were still states where abortions were legal through all nine months of pregnancy.
Mace fired right back during Monday&#8217;s broadcast of the ABC midday talk show, noting that even when pressed, there were a number of prominent elected Democrats — including President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris — who have repeatedly refused to say they would support any limits on abortion for any reason.
The conversation began with Goldberg suggesting that placing any limits on abortion amounted to the government dictating how the American people could and could not raise their families.

&#8220;Shouldn&#8217;t we all be able to say — listen, because you don&#8217;t &#8230; no, no law says you have to have an abortion,&#8221; Goldberg said. &#8220;No law — there&#8217;s no law on the books that says you have to have an abortion. Isn&#8217;t that my choice, if my doctor and I feel that&#8217;s the best way for me?&#8221;
Goldberg went on to claim that abortion restrictions were an effort to force Christian beliefs on others, but Mace pushed back.
&#8220;At some point, that baby, people will agree with me, that the baby deserves the right to life,&#8221; the South Carolina Congresswoman said, arguing that if people wanted the government to fund abortions, the government had standing to regulate and limit the procedure. &#8220;You can&#8217;t have it both ways.&#8221;
Goldberg didn&#8217;t really blow up until Mace brought up the fact that, in post-Roe America, there were states that had no limits on abortions through all nine months of pregnancy.

&#8220;Let&#8217;s stop that! No one — no one — no one! No doctor, no hospital, no one will take a baby at nine months for an abortion!&#8221; she shouted.
Mace replied with a list of elected Democrats — including Biden, Harris, and Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) — who had repeatedly refused to say there was any case in which they&#8217;d impose limits on abortion.
Mace went on to add that in Democrat-controlled states — such as Illinois — abortion access was being protected while alleged rapists were being released because of recent &#8220;bail reform&#8221; initiatives.
Goldberg wrapped up the argument by claiming that she was &#8220;pro-life,&#8221; saying, &#8220;I want everybody to have a safe life. I want them to be safe and do all the things that they should be able to do.&#8221;

Republican cohost Alyssa Farah Griffin attempted to qualify the results, suggesting that the poll was “an outlier” — but she did note that Biden certainly has some weak points going into his 2024 reelection campaign.
Griffin pointed to his consistently low job approval ratings — and concerns from both sides of the political aisle about his advanced age and mental acuity.
Cohost Sunny Hostin turned the attack on Trump then, arguing that the polls meant nothing as long as Trump’s trials had not yet begun.
Ana Navarro suggested that the pollsters had been “high” when they gave their responses, and went on to claim that the economy was in better shape under Biden — despite other <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/weekend-media-wrap-vol-10-what-you-missed-if-you-werent-glued-to-the-sunday-shows">polls</a> showing that nearly half of Americans believed that they were worse off financially since Biden had taken office.

Goldberg brought up the topic, referencing an <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/desantis-talks-trump-black-history-disney-state-gop/story?id=103360807" target="_blank" rel="noopener">interview</a> DeSantis did with ABC News anchor Linsey Davis, and laughed off reports that he &#8220;took on&#8221; former President Donald Trump regarding their opposing views on abortion legislation.
&#8220;So, also going on in the world, the Florida Governor, Ron DeSantis,&#8221; Goldberg exaggerated his name, pausing for a reaction from the audience and laughing at herself. &#8220;Interviewed &#8230; &lt;laughs&gt; &#8230; I&#8217;m so sorry. No, no, I&#8217;m giggling, I&#8217;m giggling, because he has an interview with ABC News Live Prime anchor Linsey Davis and he &#8216;took on&#8217; you-know-who &#8230; yeah, right &#8230; and other candidates.&#8221;
Goldberg then cued up a clip of the Florida governor, currently polling in second place in most states behind Trump, from that interview. &#8220;He claimed to be pro-life,&#8221; DeSantis said of Trump, who recently referred to &#8220;heartbeat bills&#8221; — which ban abortions approximately midway through the first trimester — as &#8220;terrible ideas.&#8221;
&#8220;For him to then attack people — like Iowa, South Carolina, Florida, all these other states — I thought was a big mistake, but look I mean, I think he&#8217;s taking positions that I think are different from what he took in 2015,&#8221; DeSantis continued.

&#8220;Here&#8217;s the truth,&#8221; Goldberg began, talking specifically to co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin. &#8220;We&#8217;re in better shape than we were four years ago. We&#8217;re in better shape than we were, and people of your generation need to pay attention and see how we get this done.&#8221;
&#8220;Because while we are really appreciative of – are you X or G?&#8221; Goldberg asked Griffin.
&#8220;I&#8217;m a millennial,&#8221; Griffin replied with a laugh.
&#8220;Millennials. Well, all you young-uns out there, keep in mind that this is on you now,&#8221; Goldberg continued. &#8220;If you are 18 and over, this is in your lap as well. If you don&#8217;t like what you see, if you think people aren&#8217;t doing their job then get out there and vote. Regardless. If you don&#8217;t like what you&#8217;re seeing, now it&#8217;s in your lap.&#8221;

Co-host Joy Behar took that moment to interrupt, offering a brief shout-out to Swift and noting that especially in recent years, she had been very active in encouraging young people to get out and vote – and that she had an audience that amounted to one-third of the total population of the United States.
&#8220;She&#8217;s doing more for the economy than Joe Biden&#8217;s economic agenda, but that&#8217;s neither here nor there,&#8221; Griffin interjected, prompting laughter from the audience — but her joke was immediately panned by Goldberg.
&#8220;Um, I&#8217;m sorry, untrue. But that&#8217;s okay,&#8221; Goldberg said.

The cohosts of ABC&#8217;s &#8220;The View&#8221; were split over the Senate&#8217;s recent change in dress code — namely that the traditional <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/ap-says-fetterman-flouting-senate-dress-code-shows-robust-recovery-from-depression" target="_blank" rel="noopener">dress code</a> requiring male senators to wear suit coats while on the Senate Floor for deliberations and votes would not be as strictly enforced going forward.
The change – largely presumed to be designed to protect Sen. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/john-fetterman-delivers-nasty-insult-to-gop-leaves-msnbc-host-stammering" target="_blank" rel="noopener">John Fetterman</a> (D-PA) and his apparent refusal to abandon the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/watch-fetterman-meets-biden-during-pennsylvania-visit-in-hoodie-and-shorts" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hoodies and gym shorts</a> he seems to love — provoked a wide range of responses from the cohosts.

Whoopi Goldberg kicked off the discussion, calling the move &#8220;really wonderful&#8221; for Fetterman and suggesting that the Republicans&#8217; fixation on decorum in the Senate was the real problem. &#8220;If you don&#8217;t want to wear shorts and a sweatsuit, you&#8217;re not obligated to,&#8221; she said.
Joy Behar — a former teacher herself — compared the change to schools allowing teachers to dress more casually and argued that it had &#8220;sent the wrong message&#8221; to students. But with regard to the Senate dress code, she still complained about Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) for commenting on the issue. &#8220;He&#8217;s been dumbing down America for the past couple of years,&#8221; she said.

Alyssa Farah Griffin called on Republicans to let the issue go and leave Fetterman alone, but argued in favor of a dress code for elected officials.
Cohost Sunny Hostin also favored a dress code, saying that wearing gym attire on the Senate Floor was demeaning to the office. &#8220;You don&#8217;t wear jeans and you don&#8217;t wear hoodies and you don&#8217;t wear what you would wear coming out of the gym &#8230; it demeans the office,&#8221; she said.

The conversation began with Senator Mitt Romney (R-UT) and his Wednesday announcement — that he would not seek re-election due to his own advancing age — and his call for other aging elected officials to follow his lead. But after complaining at length about the &#8220;rot&#8221; that she claimed had &#8220;always been&#8221; present within the Republican Party, Goldberg turned to face Griffin.
&#8220;Are you pregnant?&#8221; Goldberg asked directly.
&#8220;No! Oh, my God, you can’t say that when my mother-in-law is here, who’s been dying for me to get pregnant,&#8221; Griffin laughed, clearly taken aback by the question.
&#8220;Why would you say that?&#8221; co-host Joy Behar asked.
Griffin appeared apprehensive, but she pressed on, asking, &#8220;Why, do I look pregnant?&#8221;

&#8220;Yes … I just got a vibe,&#8221; Goldberg said, prompting laughs from around the table. &#8220;I’m so sorry.&#8221;
The other co-hosts chimed in then, asking whether Goldberg had perceived a &#8220;glow&#8221; about their newest member — and Goldberg agreed that was what she thought she had picked up on. Griffin responded with relief that Goldberg was saying she had a &#8220;glow&#8221; rather than because her stomach was looking abnormally large.
The Republican co-host appeared open to the idea, however, saying, &#8220;I’m very open to being pregnant soon. I am not blessed to be pregnant yet. My husband and I are thinking about it.&#8221;
Her co-hosts pressed again, asking whether she was certain she wasn&#8217;t pregnant — to which Griffin replied, &#8220;I’m pretty sure,&#8221; but promised to take a test when she got home in order to rule it out.

&#8220;The View&#8221; host Whoopi Goldberg offered a rare defense of a Republican on Tuesday, standing by Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) amid questions about his relationship status.
Scott, who is not married, has fielded a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/wapo-reporter-asked-tim-scott-if-he-is-still-a-virgin" target="_blank" rel="noopener">number of questions</a> about that over the years – but especially since he joined the race for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024 &#8212; and Goldberg waved the question away during Tuesday&#8217;s broadcast of the ABC midday talk show.

The discussion began with a clip of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/tim-scott-addresses-his-relationship-status-amid-questions-about-him-being-unmarried" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Scott</a> discussing that very topic with Fox News host Brian Kilmeade, saying that he was seeing a nice, Christian woman — and assuring Kilmeade that &#8220;at some point&#8221; the public would get to meet her.
&#8220;What is he hiding?&#8221; co-host Joy Behar asked immediately after the clip ran.
Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin accused Kilmeade of &#8220;single-shaming&#8221; Scott, saying he reminded her of her own mother before she met her husband.
Co-host Sunny Hostin argued that it was actually important to know who Scott might be involved with, saying that a woman could be very influential in the same way that former first lady Eleanor Roosevelt had been and that the people deserved to know if she was a &#8220;lunatic.&#8221; She also cited a report casting doubt on whether Scott&#8217;s girlfriend existed at all.

But Goldberg wasn&#8217;t buying it, and argued instead that even someone running for president should be allowed a modicum of privacy.
&#8220;I don&#8217;t care. This is the issue, and it&#8217;s a big issue in the country,&#8221; she said. &#8220;Why is my private life of so much interest to you that you can&#8217;t get past the fact that I may not be interested in being married? I might not want a spouse. That doesn&#8217;t mean I can&#8217;t do the job.&#8221;
Goldberg pointed out the fact that although they weren&#8217;t recent, there were presidents who had not been married — and she said that it was more important to first worry about what the candidate had in mind with regard to policies that would affect the whole country than to invest time and energy into figuring out who they may or may not be dating.

Goldberg made the comments during Wednesday&#8217;s broadcast of the ABC midday talk show &#8220;The View,&#8221; blowing off allegations of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/fbi-biden-bribery-file-released-burisma-head-says-he-was-coerced-into-paying-bidens-10-million" target="_blank" rel="noopener">bribery and corruption</a> — and her co-hosts quickly joined the pile-on, suggesting that Republicans were attempting to &#8220;weaponize&#8221; Hunter Biden against his father because they didn&#8217;t have a platform.

&#8220;What is really happening here?&#8221; Goldberg asked, vaguely referencing the multiple whistleblowers &#8212; and now Hunter Biden associate Devon Archer — who had alleged that President Joe Biden was deeply involved in his son&#8217;s foreign business dealings and influence peddling.
But instead of digging into the allegations, Goldberg suggested that it was all a coordinated effort to attack Biden because he won in 2020. &#8220;How much punishment does Biden need cause he won and they lost?&#8221; she wondered.
Co-host Joy Behar claimed that Republicans were attacking Biden because of the multiple indictments dogging former President Donald Trump &#8212; who is still leading Republican primary polls going into the 2024 election — and that the only way they could deflect from that was to beat up on Biden.
&#8220;Take your eyes off of Trump even though he&#8217;s a criminal,&#8221; she mocked, adding, &#8220;Put your eyes on this guy instead.&#8221;

Co-host Sunny Hostin agreed that the focus on Hunter Biden and Joe Biden was meant to be a diversion, but she argued that it was because they &#8220;don&#8217;t have a real program [to] help the American people.&#8221;
Leaving out the whistleblower testimony that showed how closely President Joe Biden had been involved in his son&#8217;s foreign business dealings, she again complained that Republicans were &#8220;weaponizing&#8221; Hunter Biden in an effort to take down his father.

Whatever Hunter had done, she argued it did not matter since he was not a part of Joe Biden&#8217;s administration.
