"The View" much discussed lately

"I can't stand the show or the people on it but I disagree with canceling it because of their political views.
Let their ratings decide their fate" Reader comment


‘The View’ is a pointless, irrelevant, Trump-loathing joke — cancel it   . . ."But those who watch “The View” aren’t so lucky.

"Every day is like that for them — a relentless assault on their eardrums from a bunch of partisan obsessives competing with each other over who detests Trump most.

"Their nadir came the day after the election, when to their horror, the man they’ve spent years branding a vile, bigoted, racist fascist won absolutely everything: the popular vote, the Electoral College, the White House, the Senate and the House of Representatives.

"In a truly farcical gesture of brazen bias, the six hosts all trotted out in funereal black clothing because they were in mourning.

"And yet, ironically, it was their own professional funeral that they were almost certainly attending." . . .

‘The View’ Hosts Forced to Issue Four ‘Legal Notes’ in One Episode over Trump Cabinet Selections

The View Advises Americans Not To Engage With Relatives Who Voted Trump

"Whoopi Goldberg, one of the lying hosts of The View has advised the viewers that the show still has left to shun their own relatives if they voted for President Trump.

"The remarks came during a discussion about Yale University chief psychiatry resident Dr. Amanda Calhoun saying on Joy Reid’s show that leftists who are reeling from Trump’s landslide victory should ignore family members who voted for him." . . .

Top Democrat Leader Obliterates The View’s Reasoning for Why Trump Won . . ."A top Democrat leader put the ladies of The Views’s remarks to bed after they suggested that “racism” and “misogyny” cost Vice President Kamala Harris the election. 

House Minority Leader Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) pushed back against claims that President-elect Donald Trump won over voters because of his stance on race and gender. Instead, he argued that the incoming president won because he promised to fix the nation’s economy.

"Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin asked Jeffries what lessons the Democratic Party was taking away from their loss this election season, with the panel questioning why a “convicted felon resonates more with Americans than a hyper-qualified woman of color." . . .  (Emphasis mine, TD)

. . ."However, co-host Sunny Hostin refused to believe that Trump won because of his America-first promises. She pressed Jeffries, asking if he believed sexism and racism played a role in Harris’ loss. Jeffries, though, refused to take the bait." . . .

You knew the View was ripe for parody and satire, didn't you? Check this:

Local Man Passes Bar Exam After Just One Week Of Watching 'The View'


. . ."Watching The View is like attending a masterclass on the American legal system," explained Marlow. "Every day, you have the opportunity to guess which laws the hosts are breaking, then receive immediate feedback as the hosts read a statement from legal experts explaining what law they broke. It's all the legal training you'll ever need."

Upon hearing the news, law schools across the country began shutting down and instructing students to instead watch The View. "Frankly, we're obsolete," sighed law professor John Wiggem. "Why pay for a legal education when you can learn all you ever need from a daytime talk show? My entire career is in shambles. Curse you, Sunny Hostin!!" . . .

Don't You Dare Forget What the Democrats Did to We the People.

 Kevin Downey, Jr. 

"Trump wasn't the only one to dodge a bullet in Butler, Pennsylvania. The uniparty tried to end democracy and came pretty close." . . .



"As a comedian, I know how to "read the room" as the saying goes, and I am reading nothing less than nationwide calm with a dash of, "What else do the commies have up their sleeves," trepidity.

"I suspect the globalists, military-industrial complex, or Jill Biden - whoever is actually running things - aren't going to turn over the keys to the White House without at least one last attempted kick to the goolies of freedom. Or maybe, just maybe, Gropey Joe and his myrmidons will slink quietly out of the swamp while Americans are busy with shovels trying to find Grandpa's backyard atomic shelter from 1958 now that Biden turned his WWIII knob to 11 by allowing Ukraine to make it rain on Russia with long-range missiles." . . .

. . ."The Biden-Harris administration has been punishing Trump and his supporters for four years while coddling their violent street animals. If Harris won, it was only going to get worse.

"More people would be locked up indefinitely. More illegals would be invited to replace us. The violence we see in the big blue toilet towns was going to spread to your community. Like I said, we all dodged a bullet that day in Butler, Pa.

"Never forget what Ronald Reagan once presciently declared, "Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction."

The house-of-cards case against Daniel Penny is falling apart

 NY Post  

With so much evidence that Penny was indeed protecting himself and others, and that other factors likely contributed to Neely’s death, Bragg’s decision to prosecute looks like pure politics. 

"On Friday, the defense rested in the Daniel Penny trial, leaving many observers to ask what Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg was thinking in pursuing this case.

"Over the course of the second-degree manslaughter trial, Bragg’s prosecutors tried to sell the narrative that the Marine vet overreacted and behaved “recklessly” when he restrained Jordan Neely on that F train back in May 2023.

"But a host of prosecution witnesses, Penny’s fellow passengers, knocked massive holes in that tale, as one after another veteran subway rider described how terror-stricken they felt while trapped in the train car with the angry, unstable, threatening Neely.

"One woman said she “was scared s–tless” by Neely’s behavior and recalled him yelling: “I don’t give a damn. I will kill a motherf—er. I’m ready to die.”

"She stuck around after the ordeal to thank Penny for defending her and everyone else in the car that day.

"Another, a high school student, said she was “so nervous” that she feared she “was going to pass out,” and said she didn’t hear other passengers’ warning to Penny to let go of Neely during the struggle.

"A third said Penny restrained Neely “so he wouldn’t attack anybody” — more proof that Penny was selflessly acting on behalf of others and a direct blow to lefty claims that his actions were racially motivated.

"In short, the prosecution case offered up plenty of evidence that Penny acted rationally and bravely in a harrowing situation.

"And the defense started off with a bang.

"On Thursday, forensic pathologist Dr. Satish Chundru testified that Penny’s chokehold wasn’t what killed Neely, but instead “the combined effects of sickle-cell crisis, the schizophrenia, the struggle and restraint, and the synthetic marijuana.”" . . .

Alvin Bragg needs to drop the Trump case and go after the real criminals on the streets. You know, the ones terrorizing "bodegas" and women in the subway. Go after them because the Trump case is over no matter you try to keep it around.

. . ."Again, Alvin is saving face. He doesn't know how to get out of the hole or help Judge Juan Merchan out of his hole, either. It's tough, but maybe the new Trump AG can text him something about seeing the Bragg-Mercham duo in federal court for such disregard for the rule of law.

"In the meantime, all those people yelling Alvin are Democrats reminding the DA and Judge that this game blew up in their faces in the last election."

Joe Rogan rants against Biden, Zelensky for trying to ‘start World War III’

 NY Post

"Valery Zaluzhny, Kyiv’s former military commander in chief and current envoy to the UK, said the presence of North Korean troops and Iranian weapons on Russia’s frontlines constituted the start of a third world war."


"Zelensky, whose country was invaded by Moscow in 2022, has long pleaded for approval to use US-supplied Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS) to attack targets in Russia, a request Biden finally approved last week.

"Britain then approved the use of its Storm Shadow missile — a weapon similar to the ATACMS — sparking Russia to fire a new hypersonic ballistic missile at Ukraine.

“ 'How are you allowed to do that when you’re on your way out?” Rogan said of lame-duck outgoing President Biden. “There should be some sort of pause for significant actions that could potentially start World War III.”. . .

. . ."Moscow has since warned that its new missile, which is capable of carrying a nuclear weapon, could be used against the US because of its extraordinary range.

"Russia also has warned of the possibility of a nuclear strike in Ukraine." . . .

“Maybe that would be a good thing we would like to avoid from a dying former president,” Rogan added, referencing the 82-year-old Biden.

" 'The podcaster then expressed his hopes that President-elect Donald Trump will be able to stop the war in Ukraine, which was a campaign promise he vowed to complete during his Election Day victory speech." . . .

"It’s getting serious now: Putin responds with hypersonic missile launch and warns there will be more coming"  

 . . ."Yes, we are ruled by people who are that evil." Leo Hohmann 

....The reason for the quiet response from Washington appears to me to be an intentional effort to keep Americans uninformed about this war which is now on an escalation ladder that is getting close to the point of no return, if it hasn’t already reached that point. When it hits that point, nuclear war is inevitable and nobody will be able to stop it, not even Donald Trump.

I would refer you to the images of Trump hatred on the face of Joe Biden outside Freedom Hall, the SOTU, and his DNC speech . TD

Marjorie Taylor Greene reveals how Elon Musk's DOGE will crack down on sanctuary cities that fight Trump's mass deportation agenda

 UK Daily Mail  

Marjorie Taylor Greene laid out her plans for the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) which include taking on so-called Sanctuary States and Cities. 

"The Georgia Congresswoman and fierce Trump ally will soon have a new powerful job assisting the Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy-led department. 

"House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer plans to create a Congressional subcommittee chaired by Greene.

"She outlined what some of her work may involve in an interview on Sunday and said first on her list will be to make the mayors and governors of areas harboring illegal migrants sing for their supper. 

" 'I'd like to talk to the governors of sanctuary states and the mayors of sanctuary cities and have them come before our committee and explain why they deserve federal dollars if they're going to harbor illegal criminal aliens in their states and their cities,' she told Fox News

"Trump has promised to declare a national emergency and use the military to deport millions of illegal immigrants from America. 

"Mayors of cities like Boston and Denver have promised to defy the order which will likely get them a front row seat with Greene.  " . . .

Rural counties in California, Illinois push to secede from blue states to separate from liberal-run cities after Trump’s win: ‘So flipping excited’

NY Post 

"A movement in a myriad of rural counties across deep blue states such as Illinois and California to split off and form new states appears to be gaining some steam in the wake of the Nov. 5 election."


. . ."Following the Nov. 5 election, California Gov. Gavin Newsom has visited red counties and told voters: “Message received.”

“ 'I don’t care who you voted for. I care about Trump supporters, I care about Robert Kennedy Jr supporters, I care about Tucker Carlson supporters, I care about Charlie Kirk supporters, I care about Ben Shapiro supporters, I care about all people,” Newsom said during one of his stops.

"Out in Oregon, the Greater Idaho movement is hoping to reconfigure state lines so that rural counties past the Cascade mountain range can join their conservative-run neighbor Idaho.

“ 'The State of Oregon has said we’re not going to talk about it and are basically holding people in Eastern Oregon captive against our wishes,” Matt McCaw, executive director of Greater Idaho, told the outlet.

"A similar movement had taken place in three Maryland counties — Garrett, Allegany and Washington — which asked to join West Virginia and got support from Gov. Jim Justice (R) back in 2021. None of those counties have moved over." . . .

Comcast Dumps Cratering MSNBC and Other Dying Cable Channels

"Trump won! The American people won, even those who voted against him. We fought back and elected the one man who actually does see common sense Americans as citizens who deserve a voice. This is anathema to the left."


Trump’s win signals the end of the left’s control of the mainstream media  "Trump’s electoral victory has advanced the demise of MSNBC and CNN for good reason. 

"The fall of NBC, ABC, and CBS should follow. 

"Each of these so-called news outlets has betrayed their viewers for as long as they have been on the air.  They consistently misled their viewers day after day to the point that Trump’s victory was a major shock to their systems. " . . .

. . . "One might ask how that is possible.  How could apparatchiks like Garland be so deluded by the American people’s disgust with the Biden regime’s abuse of power, which has seen their purposeful devastation of the country by their opening of the border to all comers without any vetting?  This administration has ushered into our nation all manner of criminals, pedophiles, murderers, etc. 

"The profound and disastrous results of this plan to remake America will affect the quality of life in the U.S. for decades to come.  This was all part of the plan, beginning with the hate-America Obama administration.  Remember that he so earnestly vowed to transform America, and he did, although not at all for the better. " . . .

MSNBC Paints Laken Riley’s Murderer as Political Victim   . . . "Bottom line: this gang member and future murderer was allowed into our country by Democrats, allowed to stay in the country by Democrats (even after an arrest), and then flown to his desired destination by Democrats on the taxpayers’ dime.

"If our own government’s depraved indifference to the safety of its citizens is not a “political controversy,” then nothing is.

"Nevertheless, because MSNBC sees Laken Riley as a necessary broken egg in a social justice omelet dedicated to flying millions of unvetted illegals into swing states to create future Democrat voters, here’s the MSNBC headline: “Laken Riley’s killer never stood a chance.” . . .

Comcast Dumps Cratering MSNBC and Other Dying Cable Channels  . . ."The most obscene part is that whether you watch or not, you are subsidizing hate outlets like CNN and MSNBC. A piece of your monthly cable bill goes directly into their pockets. CNN could not survive in a merit-based system. Too few people watch CNN for it to make any real money from advertising. So, CNN is subsidized through the affirmative action of CSTV where tens of millions of Americans send CNN hundreds of millions of dollars through their cable bill every year. This is called a carriage fee." . . .

The Forever-Tarnished Legacy of Barack Obama

 Jeff Davidson; Townhall 

"As for Obama’s legacy? Beyond being the first African-American president, nothing seems to be in store."    


"Among the many benefits of Donald Trump’s re-election that our nation and the world are already experiencing is the forever tarnished legacy of Barack Obama. In 2028, will the Democrat candidate want Obama to go on the campaign trail for him or her? I doubt it.

"Obama's Un-enduring Influence

"When he was elected president (assuming that massive Democratic cheating was not in full swing in 2008), Democrats held a commanding 55- to 45-seat majority in the U.S. Senate and an overwhelming 256- to 179-seat majority in the U.S. House of Representatives. 

"By the time Obama left office on January 20, 2017, Democrats were down nine seats in the Senate and a whopping 62 seats in the House – they lost the majority in each chamber. Among the 50 states, there were twelve fewer Democrat governors. You’d have to look back more than 95 years to see when the Democrats did so poorly at the polls on a national and state level.

"For all the mainstream media blather heaped upon Obama as some kind of political savior, at the end of his two terms, he left the Democratic Party in shambles. However, he has personally benefitted financially in extraordinary ways. 

"Considering the “Obama effect” on the nation’s vote totals, is any sane Democrat willing to extol the virtues of his influence on the electorate?

Megyn Kelly EXPOSES The Pete Hegseth “Sexual Assault” Claims

WLTReport 

"Watch the entire segment. It is clear after listening to Megyn Kelly walk through the police report, why charges were never filed against Pete. Don’t expect the fake news to report these details."

"The fake news has been all over Pete Hegseth this week regarding a sexual assault allegation from 2017 that was previously investigated and dropped by the Monterey Police Department.

There was a reason charges were never filed. And the legacy media knows this.  They are pushing this slanderous attack against Pete Hegseth anyway because they really, really care about powerful men abusing innocent women and children… except, of course, if those powerful men include serial abusers like Bill Clinton or gropers like Joe Biden.

The media rushed to humiliate and slander President Trump’s nominee for Defense Secretary, Pete Hegseth, this week with leaks about a years-old sexual assault allegation that was already investigated by police.

In 2017, Monterey, California, police investigated an allegation made by a married woman [Jane Doe] who claimed Pete Hegseth sexually assaulted her at a political event, but they found no evidence to support her claims. Hegseth claimed the encounter was consensual.

Video footage appears to show a consensual encounter. Video footage also appears to show that it was Hegseth and not the accuser who was slightly intoxicated while the accuser did not appear impaired at all from video footage.

The accuser’s story also fell apart when she refused to answer her husband’s phone calls that night and then discussed an alabi with Hegseth before she went back to the hotel room where her husband was waiting for her. The woman told her husband the same story that she discussed with Hegseth before she left him.

"Pete Hegseth’s attorney Timothy Parlatore told Vanity Fair last week: “This allegation was already investigated by the Monterey police department and they found no evidence for it.”

"On Friday, reporter and attorney Megyn Kelly discussed the numerous reasons she believes charges were never filed against Pete Hegseth.

"Kelly obliterated the accuser.  This was a textbook takedown.
"Megyn Kelly included several facts that have been conveniently ignored by the mainstream media as they continue their efforts to destroy Pete Hegseth’s good name and character." . . .

Sabotaging Trump: Abolishing Migrant Restrictions

 Debra J. Saunders   A parting attempt to obstruct the incoming president’s promises of a crackdown on illegal immigration.

"Former NBC News anchor Brian Williams showed he understands what is at stake when he said  on Late Night With Seth Meyers that Biden’s “biggest unforced error” was the border.“To tell people it’s not a problem, it’s insulting,” Williams added"


"If you think of Joe Biden as a nice old man who was kicked to the curb, consider his administration’s jaw-dropping efforts to sabotage Donald Trump. The president-elect plans to actually enforce federal immigration law starting Jan. 20, when Trump takes the oath of office. As the New York Post reported Thursday, Team Biden “is quietly rushing to implement new policies that will loosen restrictions on migrants who entered the U.S. illegally — a parting attempt to thwart President-elect Donald Trump’s immigration crackdowns and mass deportations,” according to sources.

"For some time now, New York has been ground zero — with horror stories to show for it. On Wednesday, a New York prosecutor was robbed by a Venezuelan migrant with a Big Apple rap sheet and suspected ties to Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua. He also was charged with masturbating in front of her. “He arrived here in New York in June and has managed to get arrested seven times since June, and at one point was smiling, and is smiling now, and I observed him laughing during the proceeding,” Judge Janet McDonnell noted during the hearing, according to the Post.

"Be it noted, New York is a sanctuary city. So it should be no surprise that more than 210,000 migrants have landed in the Big Apple since 2022. The city has been unable to house all the newcomers, so many are sleeping on the streets. In August, the New York Times reported, the city housed people in more than 100 hotels, with 16,000 hotel rooms serving as shelters.

"Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has the right idea. He declared Tren de Aragua a “terrorist organization.” So which state looks better to transnational gangs?

"The crisis was inevitable. On his first day as president, Biden ordered a 100-day pause on deportations and gave the green light to illegal crossings when he halted Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” program — with little thought of the impact on American citizens, native and foreign-born.

Another Massive Group of Illegals Head Toward U.S. Border to Get In Before Trump Takes Over

  Warner Todd Huston; The Lid 

"And once in the US, liberal mayors here will proclaim they will re-enact Tiananmen Square by standing in the way of deporting these people. TD"


"Another massive caravan of criminal illegals has gathered in Southern Mexico and are heading to the U.S. border in hopes of sneaking into the U.S. before Trump takes office in January.

"Independent journalist Auden Cabello has reported on the story developing in Tapachula, Chiapas, in southern Mexico. She noted that it is the sixth caravan of thousands of illegals that has departed from the area and headed to the U.S. since the anti-American Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum was elected in Mexico this year.

"One thing Sheinbaum has stopped is the past practice of allowing millions of illegals to hop aboard north-bound trains in Mexico.

"This new caravan has more than 1,500 criminal illegals in it, mostly from Central America.

"These lawbreakers are right about one thing, though. Trump won’t let them in once he takes over. So, Biden’s gravy train is about to end."
