            <title>Dr Oz knocks Joy Behar over TrumpRx attack, claims no cure yet for â€˜Trump derangement syndromeâ€™</title>
            <description>On 'The View,' Behar compared TrumpRx to Trump Vodka, Trump University and Trump casinos that 'all went bankrupt'</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;Dr. &lt;a href="/category/person/mehmet-mz" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Mehmet Oz&lt;/a&gt; mocked Joy Behar on X Wednesday after "The View" co-host warned this week that Americans were "all going to die" if President &lt;a href="/category/person/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Donald Trump&lt;/a&gt;'s name was attached to a new prescription drug plan, escalating a clash over TrumpRx after the White House expanded the drug-pricing site this week.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Oz, who serves as administrator of the &lt;a href="/media/dr-oz-says-800-hospice-providers-suspended-california-alleged-1b-medicare-fraud-scheme" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Centers for Medicare &amp; Medicaid Services&lt;/a&gt;, fired back with a jab at Behar and Trump critics.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Unfortunately, we still have no medications for Trump derangement syndrome on TrumpRx.gov, but weâ€™re working on it," &lt;a href="https://x.com/DrOzCMS/status/2057230255237038222?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow"&gt;Oz said&lt;/a&gt; on X.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/joy-behar-warns-going-die-heated-clash-co-hosts-trumprx-initiative" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;JOY BEHAR WARNS 'WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE' IN HEATED CLASH WITH CO-HOSTS OVER TRUMPRX INITIATIVE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The post came after Behar questioned the initiative during &lt;a href="/media/joy-behar-warns-going-die-heated-clash-co-hosts-trumprx-initiative" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;a heated "The View" segment&lt;/a&gt;, arguing that Trumpâ€™s branding made her distrust the program.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"First of all, you lie down with dogs, you wake up with fleas," Behar said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Behar pointed to Trumpâ€™s past businesses as she warned viewers against trusting a &lt;a href="/media/trumps-order-bring-down-drug-prices-has-public-split-heres-what-theyre-saying" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;prescription drug program&lt;/a&gt; tied to his name.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Once Trump puts his name on prescriptions, weâ€™re all going to die, OK?" Behar said. "He put his name on the Trump Shuttle, the Trump Vodka, Trump University, the Trump Hotel, and my favorite, the casinos that all went bankrupt."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/health/how-use-trumprx-find-cheaper-cash-prices-medications" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HOW TO USE TRUMPRX TO FIND CHEAPER CASH PRICES ON MEDICATIONS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Alyssa Farah Griffin pushed back, saying the medications on the site are existing prescriptions, not Trump-branded drugs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"The drugs donâ€™t actually have his name," Griffin said. "A medication I had to take for IVF is a tenth of the price on TrumpRx."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Youâ€™re not gonna convince me that just because Trumpâ€™s involved, we should be like, â€˜Screw it. Donâ€™t &lt;a href="/politics/trumps-rx-plan-promises-savings-economists-see-hidden-trade-off" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;bring down prescription drugs costs&lt;/a&gt;,â€™" Griffin said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/mark-cuban-shoots-presidential-bid-teams-trump-admin-cut-healthcare-costs" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MARK CUBAN SHOOTS DOWN PRESIDENTIAL BID AS HE TEAMS UP WITH TRUMP ADMIN TO CUT HEALTHCARE COSTS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sunny Hostin sided with Behar and suggested Trump's motives were not altruistic after Trump joked at the rollout event that he and billionaire &lt;a href="/outkick-sports/mark-cuban-forced-play-nice-president-trump-agreeing-business-partners" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Mark Cuban&lt;/a&gt; â€” who worked with the administration to help expand the program â€” wanted to make people "better" and keep them "wealthy."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"He said â€˜wealthyâ€™ which means to me that thereâ€™s something in it for him," Hostin said. "This is not a well-intentioned person."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/opinion/trump-ends-bidens-drug-price-nightmare-americans-get-real-relief-trumprx" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;TRUMP ENDS BIDENâ€™S DRUG PRICE NIGHTMARE â€” AMERICANS GET REAL RELIEF WITH TRUMPRX&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sara Haines argued that drug affordability mattered more than the name attached to the program.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Bring down the prices, and if youâ€™re gonna get results on this, call it â€˜Donald Trump medicine.â€™ I donâ€™t care what you call it!" Haines said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The exchange grew louder as Behar and Hostin accused Griffin and Haines of being too trusting.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"You are so naive, the two of you," Behar said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/category/person/whoopi-goldberg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Whoopi Goldberg&lt;/a&gt; eventually told viewers to make their own decisions if the program works for them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Weâ€™ll see how it works and if it works for yâ€™all, do it," Goldberg said. "If it doesnâ€™t, keep it moving."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The White House said TrumpRx is meant to serve as a central platform where patients can check cash prices and compare them with insurance pricing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The administration said the site will list commonly used medications but exclude &lt;a href="/category/us/crime/drugs" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;controlled substances&lt;/a&gt;, drugs with FDA-mandated risk evaluation and mitigation strategies, and medications not commonly sold directly to consumers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"The View" did not immediately respond to 91±¬ÁÏ Digital's request for comment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS?pid=AppArticleLink&amp;af_dp=foxnewsaf%3A%2F%2F&amp;af_web_dp=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fapps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;91±¬ÁÏ Digital's Alexander Hall contributed to this report.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <title>Sunny Hostin backs NAACP call for Black athletes to boycott public universities over redistricting</title>
            <description>The 'Out of Bounds' campaign targets schools in southern states over concerns about red state redistricting</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;"&lt;a href="/category/entertainment/the-view" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;The View&lt;/a&gt;" co-host Sunny Hostin voiced support on Wednesday for the NAACP urging Black athletes and families to boycott public universities in states that are allegedly weakening Black representation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hostin and the ABC daytime talk show panel discussed &lt;a href="/outkick-sports/naacp-black-athletes-boycott-sec-acc-sports-politics-pressure-campaign" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;the "Out of Bounds" campaign&lt;/a&gt; after the organization announced it on Tuesday. Though Hostin acknowledged that college athletes would be sacrificing opportunities, she suggested that doing so could drive political change.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I think there has to be strategy," Hostin said. "I mean, you know, athletes have been involved in protests and politics for a long time."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/naacp-official-condemns-white-politicians-trying-replace-resigning-black-mayor" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;NAACP OFFICIAL CONDEMNS WHITE POLITICIANS TRYING TO REPLACE RESIGNING BLACK MAYOR&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She continued, "Remember the Olympics and you had John Carlos and you had Muhammad Ali, but these were athletes that were established already. These college athletes stand to get a free education. They stand to make money because of the NIL now, so I think it is asking a lot. But, I think it's economic damage and economic harm has longtime been a very effective tool in the civil rights movement."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The campaign is targeting schools primarily in the SEC and ACC within states like Tennessee, Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, South Carolina, Texas and Georgia to push back against the Supreme Courtâ€™s &lt;a href="/opinion/supreme-court-gave-black-voters-shot-real-power-beyond-safe-seats" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;u&gt;Louisiana v. Callais ruling&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt; on race-based congressional districts.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/sunny-hostin-doesnt-know-president-right-position-harris-urges-her-reconsider-ca-governor" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SUNNY HOSTIN DOESN'T KNOW IF PRESIDENT IS THE 'RIGHT POSITION' FOR HARRIS, URGES HER TO RECONSIDER CA GOVERNOR&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hostin added that this boycott would only include 13 schools and that top athletes would "have a lot of other choices."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"And I would suggest that if you think about Ole Miss, there was, I think a running backâ€¦. His name was Kylin Hill. He played at Ole Miss. You know, Ole Miss brings in a lot of money. He vowed not to play unless the state changed the Confederate flag. The Confederate flag came down months later. Because college sports brings in so much money," Hostin said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;91±¬ÁÏ Digital&lt;/a&gt; reached out to the NAACP for comment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/view-host-sunny-hostin-believes-reparations-slaveholder-ancestry-revealation" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;'THE VIEW' HOST SUNNY HOSTIN STILL BELIEVES IN REPARATIONS AFTER SLAVEHOLDER ANCESTRY REVELATION&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hostin's fellow co-hosts were more reluctant to support the idea, though Joy Behar remarked that "it is young people who change the world" in terms of potential resistance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Alyssa Farah Griffin called the campaign a "very good idea" but felt that it put "too much onus on the young people who did not create the problem" of redistricting. Whoopi Goldberg admitted that she didn't believe the campaign was "the best way" to achieve change.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I think it's really going to become a case-by-case basis because I don't know how many schools we're talking about. I don't know how many athletes we're talking about and I don't know this is the best way. It can be part of a bigger picture but I don't know if this is the only way to go," Goldberg said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS?pid=AppArticleLink&amp;af_dp=foxnewsaf%3A%2F%2F&amp;af_web_dp=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fapps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Members of the Black Congressional Caucus, including Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, &lt;a href="https://jeffries.house.gov/2026/05/19/leader-jeffries-we-are-here-to-boycott-these-jim-crow-like-racially-oppressive-tactics/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;supported the boycott&lt;/a&gt; on Tuesday.&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <title>Joy Behar warns 'we're all going to die' in heated clash with co-hosts over TrumpRx initiative</title>
            <description>'The View' co-host invoked President Donald Trump's history of failed businesses</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;Co-hosts of "The View" feuded on Tuesday over whether President &lt;a href="/category/person/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Donald Trump&lt;/a&gt;â€™s TrumpRx plan is a boon for struggling Americans or is tainted by mere association.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Billionaire &lt;a href="/media/mark-cuban-shoots-presidential-bid-teams-trump-admin-cut-healthcare-costs" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Mark Cuban&lt;/a&gt;, one of the president's most outspoken critics in recent years, stood on the White House stage with Trump on Monday during the rollout of &lt;a href="http://TrumpRx.gov" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"&gt;TrumpRx.gov&lt;/a&gt;, which is a new initiative aimed at lowering the cost of 600 generic prescription drugs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The program partners the Trump administration with major private-sector companies, including Amazon, GoodRx and Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drugs â€” officially making Trump and Cuban business partners after a history of heated political attacks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;While Whoopi Goldberg seemed neutral on the bipartisan move, co-host &lt;a href="/category/person/joy-behar" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Joy Behar&lt;/a&gt; retorted, "First of all, you lie down with dogs, you wake up with fleas," and warned further, "Once Trump puts his name on prescriptions, weâ€™re all going to die, okay? He put his name on the Trump Shuttle, the Trump Vodka, Trump University, the Trump Hotel, and my favorite, the casinos that all went bankrupt."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/outkick-sports/mark-cuban-forced-play-nice-president-trump-agreeing-business-partners" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MARK CUBAN FORCED TO PLAY NICE WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP AFTER AGREEING TO BE BUSINESS PARTNERS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"The drugs donâ€™t actually have his name," co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin replied, noting these are existing drugs in a marketplace and arguing that mere association with Trump does not taint the initiative.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"A medication I had to take for IVF is a tenth of the price on TrumpRx," she said. "Whatever, itâ€™s tacky that his name on it. &lt;a href="/media/mark-cuban-shoots-presidential-bid-teams-trump-admin-cut-healthcare-costs" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Mark Cuban has dedicated his life&lt;/a&gt; to bringing down prescription drug costs. The average family, one third of Americans cut back on essential foods and utilities to be able to cover their prescription drug costs. Youâ€™re not going to convince me that, just because Trump is involved, we should be like, â€˜Screw it, donâ€™t bring down prescription drugs.â€™"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/trumps-order-bring-down-drug-prices-has-public-split-heres-what-theyre-saying" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;TRUMPâ€™S ORDER TO BRING DOWN DRUG PRICES HAS THE PUBLIC SPLIT. HERE'S WHAT THEY'RE SAYING&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Co-host Sunny Hostin seized on how Trump had quipped in footage of the event that he and Cuban have one thing in common, with the president saying, "We want to make people better, and keep them wealthy, right?"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"He said â€˜wealthyâ€™ which means to me that thereâ€™s something in it for him. This is not a well-intentioned person," Hostin argued.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Co-host Sara Haines noted how many Americans struggle with medical costs, replying that if Trump actually gets results on this issue, he can call it whatever he likes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.foxnews.com/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Behar retorted that there were countries like Scandinavia, where governments have national health insurance, to which Griffin shot back that those countries have populations equivalent to New Jersey, and that America is a whole different situation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"The two of you are so naÃ¯ve!" Hostin shouted, pointing at Griffin and Haines as the table debated and talked over each other.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS?pid=AppArticleLink&amp;af_dp=foxnewsaf%3A%2F%2F&amp;af_web_dp=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fapps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Whoopi took a conciliatory tone, trying to address both sides of the debate, then addressed the audience, "Weâ€™ll see how it works and if it works for yâ€™all, do it. If it doesnâ€™t, keep it moving."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When asked for comment from 91±¬ÁÏ Digital, White House spokesman Kush Desai said, "Joy Behar is an idiot."Â &lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <title>Whoopi Goldberg argues America is 'de-balled' and unserious on the world stage</title>
            <description>Goldberg's comments came as co-hosts discussed Trump's Iran war remarks and concerns about administration officials</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;As co-hosts of "The View" blasted President Donald Trumpâ€™s rhetoric on the costs of the Iran war, &lt;a href="/category/person/whoopi-goldberg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Whoopi Goldberg&lt;/a&gt; suggested Wednesday that America looks castrated and vulnerable on the world stage.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In a now-infamous clip, Trump was asked Tuesday morning whether he considers Americansâ€™ financial situations amid negotiations to &lt;a href="/media/rep-boebert-rejects-call-another-200-billion-fund-iran-war-while-americans-cant-afford-live" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;end the costly Iran war&lt;/a&gt;.Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Not even a little bit," Trump replied. "The only thing that matters when Iâ€™m talking about Iran â€” they canâ€™t have a nuclear weapon. I donâ€™t think about Americansâ€™ financial situation. I donâ€™t think about anybody. I think about one thing. We cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon.

The co-hosts of "The View" blasted Trump for the statement he made, arguing it shows his indifference to Americans and even "his own cult."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"He didnâ€™t care about his own supportersâ€™ pleas for no more wars &lt;a href="/media/whoopi-goldberg-erupts-over-trumps-iran-strategy-claims-hes-sending-people-lose-lives" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;when he went into Iran&lt;/a&gt;, and now he doesnâ€™t care that Americans canâ€™t afford to feed their families," Whoopi argued.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The co-hosts later noted that multiple high-profile members of Trumpâ€™s administration have been lampooned as unserious people or security liabilities for the nation itself, arguing this often reaches such a pitch that even Trump eventually sours on them and fires them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/mark-kelly-trashes-trump-over-iran-claims-people-off-street-would-do-better-than-administration" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MARK KELLY TRASHES TRUMP OVER IRAN, CLAIMS PEOPLE 'OFF THE STREET' WOULD DO BETTER THAN THE ADMINISTRATION&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The hosts discussed &lt;a href="/media/fbi-denies-investigating-atlantic-journalist-behind-harsh-piece-kash-patel" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;recent reporting from The Atlantic&lt;/a&gt; about the alleged issues associated with FBI Director Kash Patel. The Atlantic recently published an article that cited multiple anonymous sources telling the outlet that the FBI director had an "emotional outburst" related to difficulty logging into a computer system, has had "bouts of excessive drinking" and has been absent enough to prompt security concerns.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I have no faith in the people running anything.

No one is running the CDC.

I donâ€™t have them, but I know itâ€™s the same thing. But the idea that no one is in charge freaks me out."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I think America still has its basketballs. I just think we have some very struggling leaders right now," co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin replied.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The sentiment around the world, Whoopi argued, is that "they just donâ€™t believe anything weâ€™re doing because nothing we do seems to have any weight."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS?pid=AppArticleLink&amp;af_dp=foxnewsaf%3A%2F%2F&amp;af_web_dp=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fapps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Deeply unserious, de-balled," Whoopi concluded.

            <title>'The View' co-host Sunny Hostin praises Trump for 'good policies' on fertility care and child savings accounts</title>
            <description>Hostin says IVF help and Trump accounts for children are policies worth praising despite her other criticisms of Trump</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;"The View" co-host Sunny Hostin called President &lt;a href="/category/person/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Donald Trump's&lt;/a&gt; proposals to expand fertility care and set up investment savings accounts for children "good policies" on Monday.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Trump administration announced an effort on Sunday to &lt;a href="/politics/promises-kept-trump-signs-executive-order-aggressively-make-ivf-more-affordable-accessible" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;expand access to fertility care&lt;/a&gt;, as the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services and Treasury proposed a rule to include a "new category of limited excepted benefits to further expand the ability of employers to offer meaningful fertility benefits to their employees," according to a &lt;a href="https://www.dol.gov/newsroom/releases/ebsa/ebsa20260510" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow"&gt;press release&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hostin â€” a frequent harsh critic of Trump and his policies â€” actually praised the effort.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"As someone who also struggled with infertility, Manny and I went through our entire life savings to have our children," Hostin said. "There was no insurance. We were fortunate enough to have a home that his parents gave us a down payment for, and we borrowed against our entire home and our entire savings to have our two beautiful children. And so the fact that something like this is available, where you do have help with IVF, that you do have help with the IVF drugs, I think is a win."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/politics/trump-rolls-plan-slash-ivf-costs-american-families-new-pharma-partnership" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;TRUMP ROLLS OUT PLAN TO SLASH IVF COSTS FOR AMERICAN FAMILIES THROUGH NEW PHARMA PARTNERSHIP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Thereâ€™s so much to &lt;a href="/politics/pro-life-leaders-urge-trump-reverse-his-ivf-stand-say-technology-not-pro-life" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;criticize Donald Trump for&lt;/a&gt; â€” especially his racism and his xenophobia and his misogyny, yes â€” but these particular things where you have an account, a Trump account where your children can have $200,000 when theyâ€™re 18 years old and the help with infertility, which is also a crisis in the country, I think you call a thing a thing and I think these are good policies," she added.Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Fellow co-host &lt;a href="/category/person/whoopi-goldberg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Whoopi Goldberg&lt;/a&gt; pushed back on Hostin's support, though praising the expansion of fertility benefits.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I think the infertility is great, and I'll believe it when I see people actually getting to do it, but I will not give him this until he takes care of the kids from birth to 18 or 20. Iâ€™m sorry. Thatâ€™s me," she said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/dell-founder-says-6-25b-trump-accounts-donation-smartest-investment-childrens-futures" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DELL FOUNDER SAYS $6.25B 'TRUMP ACCOUNTS' DONATION IS 'SMARTEST INVESTMENTâ€™ IN CHILDRENâ€™S FUTURES&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin â€” who worked in the first Trump administration but has since become a vocal critic â€” also said she supported the policies and that she opened a Trump account for her newborn son.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I set up a &lt;a href="/politics/trump-calls-employers-nationwide-match-contributions-workers-kids-trump-accounts" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Trump account for my son&lt;/a&gt; when he was born," she said. "The government matches $1,000. And if you were to contribute 5,000 a year, which that's higher end, you would do â€” thatâ€™s like tax-free, tax deferred â€” Charles Schwab says at 18, it would have about 100,000 or almost $200,000 in it, so this is similar to a 529 account or a Roth IRA."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Griffin explained that she used IVF to get pregnant, and it took her five rounds, costing six figures.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;On TrumpRX, Griffin said, one of the medications was listed for much less than what she had paid.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I paid ten times more than what itâ€™s now available for," she said. "This isnâ€™t new. &lt;a href="/category/entertainment/shark-tank" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Mark Cuban&lt;/a&gt; has something very similar where he has low-cost drugs, but these are tangible impacts to help people. So my thing is, Trump gives us plenty to critique him on. This is not bad policy."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS?pid=AppArticleLink&amp;af_dp=foxnewsaf%3A%2F%2F&amp;af_web_dp=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fapps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/new-trump-accounts-pitched-tax-season-gateway-building-wealth" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Trump Accounts were&lt;/a&gt; created under the "One Big Beautiful Bill" signed July 4, 2025, and are structured as tax-deferred investment accounts for children.

            <title>'The View' co-hosts feud after Billy Bob Thornton calls out celebrity political lectures</title>
            <description>Alyssa Farah Griffin reminded the panel they criticized George Clooney for his Biden op-ed</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;As hosts of "&lt;a href="/category/entertainment/the-view" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;The View&lt;/a&gt;" criticized actor Billy Bob Thornton for criticizing politically outspoken celebrities, co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin reminded them of the time they told actor George Clooney to keep his mouth shut.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;During an appearance on theÂ &lt;a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aupKrNsLDc4" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"&gt;"Howie Mandel Does Stuff" podcast&lt;/a&gt;, the "Landman" actor, 70, explained why he's never been one to use his Hollywood platform to force political or personal beliefs on others, paraphrasing a famous Ricky Gervais quote warning against political speeches during an award show, "Get your little award and f--- off."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I don't know anything about politics," Thornton said. "I have no idea. And the stuff that I do believe, I don't want to force it down somebody else's throat because I'm not an expert on that."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/entertainment/billy-bob-thornton-pushes-back-celebrity-activism-dont-know-anything-politics" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;BILLY BOB THORNTON PUSHES BACK ON CELEBRITY ACTIVISM: â€˜I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT POLITICSâ€™&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;While co-host Whoopi Goldberg did not seem offended by the statement, co-host Joy Behar responded with contempt, saying, "Imagine bragging about how uninformed you are."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Co-host Sunny Hostin agreed, saying, "We are at a crisis point in this country. I think democracy is participatory. I think when you have a platform, that means I have an outsized voice and when you have a platform, I think that you have a responsibility to speak up about whatâ€™s going on in this country and my view silence is complicity. We need every single ally to speak out."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin responded by noting, "A, Billy Bob Thornton is one of my favorite actors. Iâ€™m never going to say a bad word about him, starting with that. But B, a lot of this table criticized George Clooney when he &lt;a href="/media/george-clooney-doesnt-regret-urging-biden-drop-out-new-york-times-op-ed" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;wrote his Biden op-ed&lt;/a&gt;."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/george-clooney-doesnt-regret-urging-biden-drop-out-new-york-times-op-ed" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;GEORGE CLOONEY DOESN'T REGRET URGING BIDEN TO DROP OUT IN NEW YORK TIMES OP-ED&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"That is a celebrity using his voice, saying what he believes, it can't just be when they agree with your position," Griffin added.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"He can say it and I can criticize it, thatâ€™s called free speech," Behar retorted.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Griffin went on to criticize what she called "slacktivism," where &lt;a href="/media/maher-warns-dems-avoid-tone-deaf-celebs-because-actually-hurting-partys-brand" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;celebrities feel righteous&lt;/a&gt; for sending out political statements without getting meaningfully involved in the actual work of politics themselves.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/apps-products?pid=AppArticleLink" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I donâ€™t think we should bully people," she added, "saying, â€˜You have to speak out.â€™"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Co-host Sara Haines agreed, arguing that &lt;a href="/media/kiss-icon-gene-simmons-tells-celebrities-mark-ruffalo-ben-stiller-shut-f-up-about-politics" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;celebrities making bombastic political statements&lt;/a&gt; are just preaching to the choir of people who already agree with them and are enraging those who disagree with them.&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <title>ABC fires back at FCC probe of 'The View,' calls out agency's 'chilling effect on First Amendment'</title>
            <description>Government source calls Disney's assertion 'absurd on its face'</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;ABC fired back against the &lt;a href="/category/tech/topics/fcc" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Federal Communications Commission&lt;/a&gt; (FCC) in a petition filed Thursday regarding the agency's ongoing probe against "The View."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"'The View' has been broadcasting under a bona fide news exemption granted to it more than twenty years ago... The Commission has taken no action over the last two decades to modify or overturn the Declaratory Ruling and there is no basis for doing so now," ABC said in the filing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Disney-owned network said the FCC's public notice from January announcing enforcement of a rule allotting equal time for candidates "has a chilling effect on &lt;a href="/category/first-amendment" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;First Amendment&lt;/a&gt;-protected free speech on the eve of the 2026 elections."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/fcc-launching-probe-abcs-the-view-amid-crackdown-equal-time-candidates" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;FCC LAUNCHING PROBE INTO ABC'S 'THE VIEW' AMID CRACKDOWN ON EQUAL TIME FOR CANDIDATES&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"The Commissionâ€™s actions threaten to upend decades of settled law and practice and chill critical protected speech, both with respect to â€˜The Viewâ€™ and more broadly," ABC said.Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The network previously sought to classify "The View" as bona fide news in 2002 and the notion was not disputed until 2026.Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;ABC also combated assertions that it was aiding Texas Democratic hopeful James Talarico, whose February appearance on "The View" triggered the probe, stating in the filing, "The decision to include Talarico was driven by considerations of newsworthiness and audience interest and not an intent to advance his candidacy."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/republicans-virtually-shut-out-dem-dominated-talk-shows-fcc-aims-reform-network-bias" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;REPUBLICANS VIRTUALLY SHUT OUT OF DEM-DOMINATED TALK SHOWS AS FCC AIMS TO REFORM NETWORK BIAS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A government source told &lt;a href="/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;91±¬ÁÏ Digital&lt;/a&gt; that Disney's statement was "absurd on its face."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Ron Burgundy has a stronger claim of being 'bona fide news' than &lt;a href="/category/person/whoopi-goldberg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Whoopi Goldberg&lt;/a&gt;," the source said, referring to the iconic Will Ferrell character from "Anchorman."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A spokesperson for the FCC told 91±¬ÁÏ Digital, "Decades ago, Congress passed a law that generally prohibits broadcast television programs from putting a thumb on the scale in favor of one political candidate over another.Â  Specifically, Congress put protections in place to ensure that covered programs offer legally qualified candidates for office (both Republican and Democrat) equal time on the public airwaves.Â Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"The equal time law encourages more speech and empowers voters to decide the outcome of elections.

            <title>Craig Ferguson reveals why Trump jokes are missing from his new comedy tour</title>
            <description>Scottish-American comedian's 'Pants on Fire' tour is designed to let audiences set their anger aside for 90 minutes</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;Scottish-American comedian and former host of CBS' "The Late Late Show" Craig Ferguson said Wednesday he &lt;a href="/media/jim-gaffigan-says-comedy-audiences-tired-political-drama-just-want-laugh-again" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;avoids political humor by design&lt;/a&gt; in his new stand-up comedy tour, "Pants on Fire," describing the choice as both a creative challenge and a response to how exhausted he is by political discourse.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"So the reason why I don't [include politics in my show] â€” I'm sick of people that I agree with. Never mind people I don't agree with," Ferguson said on "&lt;a href="/category/entertainment/the-view" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;The View&lt;/a&gt;."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He added that keeping politics out of the act lets audiences set their anger aside for a while and, afterward, "have it back."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/mark-normand-says-late-night-dying-how-stand-up-comic-keeps-up-changing-comedy-scene" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MARK NORMAND SAYS LATE NIGHT IS 'DYING' â€” HOW THE STAND-UP COMIC KEEPS UP IN A CHANGING COMEDY SCENE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I'm just like, let's take an hour and a half, I'll go on stage, I'll tell you a bunch of jokes and do some stuff and tell some stories, and at the end of it, all the stuff that you're angry about is still there," he joked. "You can have it back. I'm not taking it from you."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Co-host &lt;a href="/category/person/joy-behar" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Joy Behar&lt;/a&gt; asked whether Ferguson's stand-up tour included a lot of material about President Donald Trump, given its title.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/conan-obrien-says-f-trump-comics-have-been-co-opted-anger-just-screaming" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CONAN O'BRIEN SAYS 'F TRUMP' COMICS HAVE BEEN CO-OPTED BY ANGER, 'JUST SCREAMING'&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ferguson said it did not, noting that the decision not to use political material was a "stylistic" one.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"It was a choice that I made for myself, like a stylistic choice, like, could I do it? Could I fill a whole show with no politics?

            <title>Alina Habba battles 'The View' over Comey prosecution in tense appearance</title>
            <description>Comey has been indicted a second time over an Instagram post showing shells arranged as '86 47'</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;Former Trump advisor Alina Habba battled "The View" co-hosts on Wednesday when &lt;a href="/live-news/james-comey-indicted-again-as-doj-probe-deepens-into-ex-fbi-chief" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;pressed on the indictment&lt;/a&gt; of former FBI Director James Comey, which Sunny Hostin said she believed was a "vindictive prosecution."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hostin asked Habba, "Do you think Comey's post rises to the level of a criminal threat against the life of the president and supports an indictment?"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I do," Habba responded. "After Comey's post â€” and this is where I go back to Saturday's events â€” the responsibility of certain individuals like us â€” we all have a very big voice. He is a former FBI director. He knows what 8647 meant. There's no question about it."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Comey has been indicted for a second time, after being indicted last year on perjury and obstruction &lt;a href="/politics/federal-judge-dismisses-james-comey-letitia-james-indictments" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;charges that were later dismissed&lt;/a&gt; by a federal judge. The Justice Departmentâ€™s latest action signals an escalating probe into Comeyâ€™s conduct after his time leading the bureau. Investigators have reviewed a May 2025 &lt;a href="/politics/flashback-comey-had-another-anti-trump-seashell-photo-moment-during-2024-election" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Instagram post by Comey&lt;/a&gt; showing shells on a beach arranged as "86 47," which drew widespread attention online.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/politics/comey-indictment-sparks-fierce-reaction" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;COMEY INDICTMENT SPARKS FIERCE POLITICAL REACTIONS NATIONWIDE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Some interpreted "86 47" as a message tied to President &lt;a href="/category/person/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Donald Trump&lt;/a&gt;, the 47th president, though Comey previously described it as a "cool shell formation." Details surrounding the charges and scope of the latest indictment remain limited as the case develops.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As Hostin and co-host &lt;a href="/category/person/joy-behar" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Joy Behar&lt;/a&gt; argued that "86" didn't mean kill, Habba pointed out that Comey should have known what it meant as former head of the FBI.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Let me just tell you what happened after &lt;a href="/category/person/james-comey" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;James Comey's&lt;/a&gt; post," Habba said. "A gentleman posted that about me. He posted on Twitter [sic], '86 Habba,' and he was also charged. He was charged in Florida, and he was held accountable because you cannot do it."Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Now, this is an FBI director," she continued. "We have responsibilities. You guys have responsibilities not to call the president certain things or say things that could incite violence. I most certainly think after Saturday, I have a completely new perspective on how important our voices are and how we use them."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/sen-graham-wasnt-bothered-one-damn-bit-letitia-james-comey-getting-indicted" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SEN GRAHAM SAYS HE WASN'T BOTHERED â€˜ONE DAMN BITâ€™ ABOUT LETITIA JAMES, COMEY GETTING INDICTED&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hostin and Behar raised rhetoric by Trump about Democrats, which Habba said she has not seen but that no one should be inciting violence.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Here's directly how I feel about this: nobody should be inciting violence. Period. That's my perspective," Habba responded. "But you have to remember something. The Department of Justice brings real cases. We are not Jack Smith, we are &lt;a href="/politics/trump-admin-makes-new-criminal-referrals-doj-targeting-new-york-ag-letitia-james" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;not Letitia James&lt;/a&gt;. We bring real cases against people."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hostin said she believed it was a "vindictive prosecution against Comey" directed by Trump and asked Habba, "As Trump's personal attorney, you actually were sanctioned nearly a million dollars for filing a frivolous civil lawsuit against Comey, against &lt;a href="/category/person/hillary-clinton" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Hillary Clinton&lt;/a&gt; and others that a federal judge called 'political grievances masquerading as legal claims.' So why should anyone believe this pattern of targeting Trump's enemies is about justice and not revenge?"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"If you think that the &lt;a href="https://nation.foxnews.com/gregg-jarretts-the-russia-hoax/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Russia collusion hoax&lt;/a&gt;, if you think that the things that we've now seen evidence of in this Department of Justice aren't real, I'd just tell you to sit tight because things are coming," Habba said. "Because what they did was weaponize. I don't want to hear about weaponization because the reason you all know who I am is because of weaponization."Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I sat through targeting, people saying, 'We're going to get Trump,' and then a Hillary Clinton-appointed judge sanctioned me for suing Hillary Clinton," she continued. "By the way, I'm proud of that. I'm proud of what I did because it was the right thing to do."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS?pid=AppArticleLink&amp;af_dp=foxnewsaf%3A%2F%2F&amp;af_web_dp=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fapps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/politics/alina-habba-becomes-bondi-advisor-leaving-role-top-new-jersey-prosecutor" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Habba served as a top prosecutor&lt;/a&gt; in New Jersey, and as an advisor to former U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi after an appellate court found in December that Bondi improperly appointed her as &lt;a href="/politics/trump-hit-setback-court-rules-alina-habba-unlawfully-served-top-federal-prosecutor-new-jersey" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;u&gt;U.S. attorney&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;"&lt;a href="/category/entertainment/the-view" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;The View&lt;/a&gt;" co-hosts Alyssa Farah Griffin and Ana Navarro called out people who were claiming the &lt;a href="/category/politics/executive/white-house" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;White House&lt;/a&gt; Correspondents' Association (WHCA) Dinner shooting was staged, and people who were thinking of turning the alleged shooter into a martyr during the show on Monday.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I will tell you what really hit me, though, was later that night when I was on social media or the next morning, a good chunk of the country thinks this was staged. And where, I donâ€™t think that. Let me just be clear, I donâ€™t think that. But where are we in America, when Reagan was shot in 1981, nobody would have thought about that. And so, you know, I think people have to take stock of just the level of influence that misinformation, that the lies have had on the American psyche that the first conclusion so many people reach, because of the polarization and because of some of the things that our elected officials have done, frankly," Navarro said as the co-hosts discussed the shooting.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/us/cole-allen-identified-suspect-white-house-correspondents-dinner-shooting" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"&gt;&lt;u&gt;Cole Allen&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, 31, from Torrance, Calif., is the man accused of opening fire at the Washington Hilton Hotel during the WHCA Dinner on Saturday. President &lt;a href="/category/person/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Donald Trump&lt;/a&gt; and members of his Cabinet were evacuated from the Hilton ballroom.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Navarro took issue with Trump's call for support for his White House ballroom construction after the shooting, and said she wished the president&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/jim-jordan-blames-left-wing-rhetoric-after-armed-assailant-disrupts-whca-dinner" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;JIM JORDAN BLAMES LEFT-WING RHETORIC AFTER ARMED ASSAILANT DISRUPTS WHCA DINNER&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/trump-praises-press-after-whcd-shooting-says-unity-dinner-beautiful" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;The president offered rare praise&lt;/a&gt; to the press after the shooting during a briefing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"This was an event dedicated to freedom of speech that was supposed to bring together members of both parties with members of the press, and in a certain way it did, because the fact that they just unified," Trump said. "I saw a room that was just totally unified. It was, in one way, very beautiful, a very beautiful thing to see."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Griffin first called out people who argued that the left was to blame for the shooting.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I have already seen some folks on the right saying the left did this. The left did not do this. One individual actor who has his own agency, his own decision-making, who got radicalized however he may have did this. I reject that language because it makes these things more likely to happen in the future," she said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/man-went-viral-remaining-seated-eating-appetizer-white-house-dinner-chaos-unfolded-speaks" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MAN WHO WENT VIRAL FOR REMAINING SEATED, EATING APPETIZER AS WHITE HOUSE DINNER CHAOS UNFOLDED SPEAKS OUT&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Griffin then called on people not to make Allen into a folk hero, comparing &lt;a href="at%20the%20state%20and%20federal%20level%20in%20connection%20with%20the%20December%202024%20assassination%20of%20United%20Healthcare%20CEO%20Brian%20Thompson,%20a%2050-year-old%20father%20of%20two%20from%20Minnesota%20who%20was%20in%20New%20York%20City%20for%20a%20work%20conference%20when%20a%20gunman%20snuck%20up%20behind%20him%20and%20opened%20fire." target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;it to Luigi Mangione,&lt;/a&gt; who is facing multiple charges in connection with the December 2024 assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;"The View" co-host &lt;a href="/category/person/whoopi-goldberg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Whoopi Goldberg&lt;/a&gt; called on President Donald Trump to build a new hotel during the show on Monday following the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner shooting, which took place at a Hilton in Washington, D.C. on Saturday.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Goldberg, who regularly calls Trump "you-know-who" instead of naming him, said he should build a new hotel &lt;a href="/politics/fetterman-breaks-democrats-shooting-scare-backs-trump-major-white-house-project" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;with a large ballroom&lt;/a&gt; so the WHCA doesn't need to use the Hilton for future events.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Here is something, you-know-who always talks about he is a builder, he knows how to do this," she said. "Maybe he needs to build a new hotel there that has a big enough ballroom, where they donâ€™t have to go to the Hilton, where the ballroom is under the building. This is what he says he does well."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Forget destroying the White House," Goldberg added, referring to Trump ordering the demolition of the mansion's East Wing in order to &lt;a href="/politics/white-house-correspondents-dinner-shooting-sharpens-focus-trumps-ballroom-construction-proposal" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;construct a new ballroom&lt;/a&gt; to host presidential events.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/karoline-leavitt-blasts-nyt-ballroom-coverage-calls-out-critics-who-never-built-anything" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;KAROLINE LEAVITT BLASTS NYT BALLROOM COVERAGE, CALLS OUT CRITICS WHO 'NEVER BUILT ANYTHING'&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Iâ€™m saying maybe itâ€™s time someone built a hotel with a bigger ballroom, because the ballroom, youâ€™re never going to have enough seats for everybody. Youâ€™re just not," she continued. "Itâ€™s always going to be more people show up, less people, youâ€™re never going to know. Maybe thatâ€™s something when he stops being president."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The co-hosts discussed the shooting at the WHCA Dinner, during which Trump and members of the Cabinet were evacuated from the hotel ballroom after gunshots rang out.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"We have to do a better job, and thank God for the Secret Service," Goldberg said. "Thank God that, you know, this thing was in the basement where they couldnâ€™t â€” you couldnâ€™t get to him so you had to go here and here and here before you can even get to here. So thatâ€™s â€” thank goodness for that. But there has to be a better way to do this. There just has to be."Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The co-hosts acknowledged that it could have been a mass casualty event.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/sunny-hostin-doesnt-know-president-right-position-harris-urges-her-reconsider-ca-governor" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Co-host Sunny Hostin&lt;/a&gt; said during the discussion that people should be "outraged" that a shooter allegedly tried to kill Trump and members of the administration.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/opinion/stability-our-great-nation-depends-preventing-political-violence" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;THE STABILITY OF OUR GREAT NATION DEPENDS ON PREVENTING POLITICAL VIOLENCE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Many Republican &lt;a href="/politics/republicans-rush-green-light-white-house-ballroom-following-third-trump-assassination-scare" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;lawmakers have promoted&lt;/a&gt; the construction of the White House ballroom following the shooting.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sen. Tim Sheehy, R-Mont., announced he would try to fast-track a bill to give congressional approval for construction of the ballroom in the Senate when the upper chamber returns this week.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He argued that "a president of any party should be able to host events in a secure area without attendees worrying about their safety."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS?pid=AppArticleLink&amp;af_dp=foxnewsaf%3A%2F%2F&amp;af_web_dp=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fapps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"It is an embarrassment to the strongest nation on Earth that we cannot host gatherings in our nationâ€™s capital, including ones attended by our president, without the threat of violence and attempted assassinations," Sheehy said in a statement.&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <title>'The View' host Ana Navarro boycotts White House Correspondentsâ€™ Dinner, says 'no way in hell'</title>
            <description>Navarro says she 'cannot normalize the cruelty and inhumanity' but supports the event's journalism mission</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;"The View" host Ana Navarro said she would not attend the White House Correspondents' Dinner while President &lt;a href="/category/person/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Donald Trump&lt;/a&gt; was in office for his second term, even as she acknowledged the legitimacy of media organizations like ABC and Disney continuing to support and participate in the event, according to remarks made on the "Behind the Table" podcast on Thursday.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"There is no way in hell. I would have to be dragged against my will, blindfolded by a hundred horses for me to go sit through this this year," Navarro said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The annual dinner, hosted by the &lt;a href="/media/white-house-correspondents-association-abruptly-cancels-anti-trump-comedian-headliner-annual-dinner" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;White House Correspondents Association&lt;/a&gt;, has historically raised funds for journalism scholarships and honored members of the press, and Trump will attend this year after declining to appear during his first term.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/ana-navarro-slams-trump-voters-mass-deportations-america-what-you-did" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;THE VIEWâ€™S ANA NAVARRO â€˜FURIOUSâ€™ AT VENEZUELANS AND CUBANS WHO SUPPORT TRUMP AMID DEPORTATIONS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A White House correspondent told 91±¬ÁÏ Digital that &lt;a href="/media/white-house-correspondents-excited-trumps-return-annual-dc-dinner-insiders-say" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Trump's presence had heightened interest&lt;/a&gt; in the event.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I think people are almost universally excited and curious what President Trump will say in his speech," the correspondent said. "Even if you donâ€™t like the president, the president appearing at the dinner makes the dinner a much more significant event."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Navarro framed her refusal as a broader rejection of what she described as the current political climate.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/white-house-reporters-react-axios-journalist-comments-calling-out-medias-weak-coverage-bidens-decline-whcd" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;WHITE HOUSE REPORTERS RESPOND AFTER BEING CALLED OUT FOR WEAK COVERAGE OF BIDEN'S DECLINE AT WHCD&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I cannot normalize the abnormal. I cannot normalize the cruelty and inhumanity," Navarro said. "I am glad that Disney is supporting this because letâ€™s rememberâ€¦ the funds raised at this event go towards scholarships."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"The View" executive producer Brian Teta also pointed to the event's role in recognizing journalism, including coverage critical of the administration.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"They give awards to journalism," Teta said on the show's "Behind the Table" podcast. "Many of these awards are being given to people that wrote unflattering portrayals and stories about Donald Trump."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/flashback-five-most-politically-charged-moments-white-house-correspondents-dinner" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;FLASHBACK: FIVE OF THE MOST POLITICALLY-CHARGED MOMENTS AT THE WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENTS' DINNER&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Teta emphasized the importance of defending press freedoms despite Navarro's decision not to attend.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I do think itâ€™s important to stand up for the First Amendment and to support the journalists that are there," Teta said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;On a Friday episode of "The View," co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin defended attendance as part of the eventâ€™s broader mission.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"They should show up. Letâ€™s remember the White House Correspondents Association," Griffin said. "Itâ€™s first and foremost about protecting the First Amendment and rallying around journalists who do incredible, important work informing all of us."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"My colleague and Anaâ€™s colleague Kaitlan Collins is receiving an award for her coverage of the White House," Griffin said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Navarro, however, argued that Trumpâ€™s participation should come with expectations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"If he is going to show up, he should sit there while Kaitlan Collins gets her award," Navarro said. "Having Donald Trump speak at the White House Correspondents Dinner where the free press is honored is like having a cannibal host a vegan event."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS?pid=AppArticleLink&amp;af_dp=foxnewsaf%3A%2F%2F&amp;af_web_dp=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fapps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <title>â€˜The Viewâ€™ hosts blast RFK Jrâ€™s leadership as Joy Behar says policies are 'trying to kill usâ€™</title>
            <description>Whoopi Goldberg ended the segment with a direct plea to Kennedy: "Get out of this job. Dude, youâ€™re not qualified"</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;The co-hosts of ABCâ€™s &lt;a href="/category/entertainment/the-view" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;"The View"&lt;/a&gt; launched a blistering attack on Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Thursday, questioning his fitness for office following a series of contentious Senate hearings. At one point, co-host Joy Behar said of the administration's policies, "Sometimes, I feel like theyâ€™re trying to kill us."Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Kennedy locked horns with lawmakers this week during back-to-back appearances before the Senate Finance Committee and the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP). The hearings come amid reports that the White House has moved to "tighten its grip" on the HHS, allegedly advising Kennedy to temper public rhetoric regarding shifts in national vaccine policy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One of the moments from the testimony involved Kennedyâ€™s vision for artificial intelligence. He suggested to lawmakers that AI could eventually "revolutionize medicine" to the point of making the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) "irrelevant."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/politics/kennedy-tells-fda-employees-the-deep-state-real-report" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;KENNEDY TELLS FDA EMPLOYEES THAT 'THE DEEP STATE IS REAL': REPORT&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I was just reading about a dog that had cancer, and his owner used AI to develop a personalized treatment that cured the cancer," Kennedy told the Senate panel on Thursday.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;While co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin admitted she would do anything to save her own pet, she expressed alarm that such anecdotes were being used to guide federal policy by someone she claimed lacks the proper credentials.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"This is our expertâ€”somebody who does not have a medical degree, who does not have a background in science," Griffin said. She specifically pointed to the administration's recent decision to pivot away from certain mRNA research.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Griffin claimed the HHS has moved to cancel &lt;a href="/politics/rfk-jr-cancels-500-million-mrna-research-hhs-prioritize-safer-vaccine-alternatives" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;$500 million in funding for mRNA vaccine research&lt;/a&gt;â€”a technology she noted is currently showing "massive breakthroughs" in treating pancreatic cancer. "That has real-life consequences," she warned, adding that the impact could be felt for decades.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/rosie-odonnell-demands-rfk-jr-resign-over-comments-about-autistic-children" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;ROSIE O'DONNELL DEMANDS RFK JR RESIGN OVER COMMENTS ABOUT AUTISTIC CHILDREN&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Co-host &lt;a href="/category/person/whoopi-goldberg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Whoopi Goldberg&lt;/a&gt; turned the focus toward government transparency, suggesting that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has been "cleared out" of vital information regarding clinical trials.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The conversation took an even darker turn when Behar suggested a more malevolent motive behind the administration's health policies.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"You know, sometimes I feel like theyâ€™re trying to kill us," Behar said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"You think?" Goldberg retorted.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/politics/rfk-jrs-abortion-issue-senate-gop-plans-scrutinize-trump-hhs-picks-position" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;RFK JR'S ABORTION 'ISSUE': SENATE GOP PLANS TO SCRUTINIZE TRUMP HHS PICK'S POSITION&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Behar pivoted to a personal attack on the secretaryâ€™s character and past. "Here youâ€™ve got a guy who is in charge of our health, who is a former heroin addict... he swam in sewage! Who does that?" she shouted. "And [he] snorted cocaine off a toilet seat. This is who is in charge of your health, America. Weâ€™re in a lot of trouble."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;91±¬ÁÏ Digital reached out to the HHS for comment but did not receive an immediate response. When reached for comment by 91±¬ÁÏ Digital, White House spokesperson Kush Desai said simply: "Joy Behar is an idiot."Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/apps-products?pid=AppArticleLink" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <title>Whoopi Goldberg demands 'everybody stop with the redistricting' following Virginia vote</title>
            <description>The ballot measure in Virginia could give Democrats a 10-1 advantage in the state's congressional delegation ahead of midterms</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;"The View" co-host &lt;a href="/category/person/whoopi-goldberg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Whoopi Goldberg&lt;/a&gt; demanded an end to redistricting efforts from both sides during "The View" on Wednesday, after Virginia voters approved a redistricting referendum on Tuesday.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/politics/democrats-win-virginia-redistricting-fight-threating-republican-house-majority" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;The measure could reshape&lt;/a&gt; Virginiaâ€™s congressional delegation, with national implications as both parties battle for control of the House.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"You know there are good people out there and want to do this, but people donâ€™t want to start running and then get removed because youâ€™ve changed the map. Leave the map alone. Just leave the map alone. Let people decide who they want and what they wantâ€¦ You donâ€™t own the government. We own the government," Goldberg said as the co-hosts brought up Florida, possibly re-districting in response.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Goldberg said at the end of the discussion, "Everybody, stop with the redistricting. Let people win on their own merit. Because cheating doesnâ€™t work. Cheating just makes it worse."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/politics/trumps-redistricting-push-gains-steam-another-key-state-stand-with-president" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;TRUMPâ€™S REDISTRICTING PUSH GAINS STEAM IN ANOTHER KEY STATE: 'WE WILL STAND WITH THE PRESIDENT'&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Goldberg, while discussing the news at the start of the show, wondered where it was going to end.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Where is it going to end? Because Texas did this, then &lt;a href="/category/us/us-regions/west/california" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;California&lt;/a&gt; said, 'No, we're going to do this.' Now, Virginia said, â€˜Weâ€™ll ask our people what they want,â€™ as did the folks in Californiaâ€¦ California people said, â€˜Yeah, we donâ€™t like whatâ€™s happening,â€™ So you canâ€™t, you canâ€™t say, you know, clutch your pearls and go, 'Oh, my God, I canâ€™t believe you did this.'"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Co-host Sunny Hostin supported the effort by Democrats in Virginia and said Republicans started it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/politics/battle-house-runs-through-virginia-court-oks-high-stakes-redistricting-vote" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;BATTLE FOR THE HOUSE RUNS THROUGH VIRGINIA AS COURT OKS HIGH-STAKES REDISTRICTING VOTE&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"The Republican Party did start this in Texas and didnâ€™t do it by the will of the people. They didnâ€™t have an election. They didnâ€™t put it on the ballot. They did it in the legislature and Texas stole â€“ well, redistricted and took five seats. So California, which has the GDP of a small country, basically said 'Iâ€™ll see your five and Iâ€™m going to get you five,' so the Democrats got five. I thought it should have ended there," Hostin said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She continued, "But if you look at, then North Carolina got involved and Republicans started little by little chipping away, taking away the will of the people, and now youâ€™ve got Virginia saying, weâ€™re going to take it to the people, not the legislature," Hostin said, pointing to a likely Democratic advantage in the state. "And Iâ€™ve got to tell you when they go low, I think you go to the earthâ€™s crust."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS?pid=AppArticleLink&amp;af_dp=foxnewsaf%3A%2F%2F&amp;af_web_dp=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fapps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The ballot measure passed in Virginia gives the Democrat-controlled legislature â€” rather than the state's current nonpartisan commission â€” temporary redistricting power through the 2030 election. It could result in a 10-1 advantage for Democrats in &lt;a href="/category/us/us-regions/southeast/virginia" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;u&gt;Virginia's congressional delegation&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, up from their current 6-5 edge.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The referendum, which follows President &lt;a href="/category/person/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Donald Trump's&lt;/a&gt; push for mid-decade redistricting in Republican-led states, would give the Democrats four additional left-leaning U.S. House seats ahead of the midterms as the party tries to win back control of the chamber from the GOP, which currently holds a razor-thin majority.&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <title>'The View' co-host claims Caitlyn Jenner has 'special place in hell' over Trump support</title>
            <description>Navarro quoted trans advocate Janetta Johnson, who once called Jenner a 'rich, White b----'</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;"&lt;a href="/category/entertainment/the-view" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;The View&lt;/a&gt;" co-host Ana Navarro sounded off on Caitlyn Jenner during the show on Monday after the former Olympic athlete said she was having a problem changing her gender on her passport, to which Navarro responded with, that there is a "special place in hell" for people like her.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Caitlyn Jenner? Girl, cry me a river. Let me play my little violin for you," Navarro said. "Changing the marker on the passports is an executive order that he signed on day one, so if you think he didn't know what he was doing, if you think he wasn't fulfilling a campaign promise because, as you say, he absolutely exploited this issue in order to get people to the polls."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I think there's a special place in hell for people who only care about themselves and don't care about the effect on others," Navarro added.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhMb0JZ49Xc" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Jenner said during&lt;/a&gt; an episode of Tomi Lahren's podcast that she was not able to change her gender to "F" on her passport. Jenner said she sent a letter to President &lt;a href="/category/person/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Donald Trump&lt;/a&gt; asking for help but that she has not heard back.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/caitlyn-jenner-backs-ioc-move-ban-transgender-women-from-olympics-after-review-finds-unfair-advantage" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CAITLYN JENNER BACKS IOC MOVE TO BAN TRANSGENDER WOMEN FROM OLYMPICS AFTER REVIEW FINDS UNFAIR ADVANTAGE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I'm going to quote trans advocate Janetta Johnson, who said this in 2015: 'Jenner is a rich, White b----. She can pay for everything she needs,'" Navarro said, quoting Johnson. "'But I think she now needs to put some of that money back into the transgender community, as she has taken a lot. All these years, we've been abused and battered, yet she's used none of her power to help the community and bring about change.'"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin called the Trump executive order "stupid policy" and said it was meant to embarrass people.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"That is not an issue that in any way betters the lives of the American people," Griffin said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/politics/trumps-two-sexes-executive-order-comes-heels-scotus-accepting-another-challenge-lgbt-agenda" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;u&gt;TrumpÂ signed the executive order&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, "Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government,"Â on his first day in office. The order mandates the federal government recognize only two sexes â€” male and female â€” based on immutable biological characteristics, which must be reflected onÂ official documents, like passports.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/politics/trump-admin-asks-supreme-court-allow-enforce-passport-sex-designation-policy" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;TRUMP ADMIN ASKS SUPREME COURT TO ALLOW IT TO ENFORCE PASSPORT SEX DESIGNATION POLICY&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The State Department, responsible for passports,Â is no longer issuing passportsÂ with the "X" marker thatâ€™s been available since 2021 and is not honoring requests to change gender markers between "M" and "F."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Jenner expressed support for Trump during the podcast despite the passport issue. The White House did not immediately return 91±¬ÁÏ Digital's request for comment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I haven't heard from him. Heâ€™s kind of busy right now. My gender marker is not big on the issue, OK? So, I get that, and Iâ€™m not blaming him whatsoever. I love the guy, and I love what heâ€™s doing," Jenner said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Jenner's representation did not immediately respond to 91±¬ÁÏ Digital's request for comment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/politics/trans-star-hit-hbo-series-says-renewed-passport-now-says-male-after-trump-order" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Hunter Schafer, a transgender&lt;/a&gt; actor and star of the HBO series "Euphoria," revealed in February 2025 that her new passport was issued with a male gender marker because of the executive order.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Schafer, 26, posted a video on social media detailing how her passport had been stolen while she was &lt;a href="/category/entertainment" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;u&gt;filming in Spain&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. After receiving an emergency passport, she later had to apply for a new, permanent one in Los Angeles. Schafer, who transitioned to female when she was a teenager, said her original passport identified her as female, but the new one she received marked her as male.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS?pid=AppArticleLink&amp;af_dp=foxnewsaf%3A%2F%2F&amp;af_web_dp=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fapps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Schafer said she wasnâ€™t posting the video to "create drama," "fearmonger" or "receive consolation," but rather because she thought it was worth noting "the reality of the situation and that it is actually happening."&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <title>'The View' co-hosts clash over whether to embrace ex-Trumpers like Marjorie Taylor Greene</title>
            <description>Ilhan Omar's call for grace toward former Trump supporters like Greene sparked heated on-air clash</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;"The View" hosts feuded Wednesday over whether MAGA defectors like former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene should be embraced now that they have turned against President &lt;a href="/category/person/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Donald Trump&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Co-host Joy Behar said both sides of the political aisle needed reconciliation, saying, "They both have majorÂ issues. They recognize thingsÂ theyâ€™ve said in the past aboutÂ each other that are horrendous,Â on both sides actually, but itÂ seems to me that they are seeingÂ the emergency weâ€™re in right nowÂ with Trump and the White House."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I always willÂ welcome â€” youâ€™ve seen theÂ light, come right into my tent," Behar said.Â "Thereâ€™s a lot of room for theÂ never-Trumpers and theÂ non-Trumpers.Â Maybe thatâ€™s what itâ€™s going toÂ be now."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Fellow co-host Sara Haines blasted the idea, saying that embracing people on the right would be unwise if they still hold ideological opinions and associations she finds problematic.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/politics/mtg-defends-herself-america-first-trump-slams-her-truth-social" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MTG DEFENDS HERSELF AS 'AMERICA FIRST' AFTER TRUMP SLAMS HER ON TRUTH SOCIAL&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"So, these details matter," Haines said. "Just because she agrees, â€˜Oh, I donâ€™t like Trump,â€™ Iâ€™m not like, â€˜Great, welcome aboard.â€™ Youâ€™ve got to look at the character of the people youâ€™re speaking of."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"So what should we do? Reject her altogether?" Behar asked.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Yes," co-host Sunny Hostin said. "We should reject her altogether. Iâ€™m sorry, Joy."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As the debate and crosstalk continued, Hostin grilled Behar, asking, "Why are you so welcoming, Joy?"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I donâ€™t hold grudges," Behar said. "If they want to come over to my side, Iâ€™m taking them. [Greene] speaks to the MAGA base."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"The View" has had Greene on the program twice in the last six months. In November, while still in Congress, &lt;a href="/media/marjorie-taylor-greene-surprises-the-view-co-hosts-civility-praise" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Greene surprised the co-hosts&lt;/a&gt; by praising them for their civility.Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In January, immediately after leaving Congress over differences with the Trump administration, &lt;a href="/media/marjorie-taylor-greene-firmly-rejects-the-view-hosts-pleas-become-democrat" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Greene rejected pleas&lt;/a&gt; from the liberal co-hosts for her to become a Democrat.Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/joy-behar-invites-trump-the-view-after-he-called-greene-rino-appearing-show" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;JOY BEHAR INVITES TRUMP ON 'THE VIEW' AFTER HE CALLED GREENE A 'RINO' FOR APPEARING ON SHOW&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., suggested Sunday on "Pod Save America" that Democrats should act with &lt;a href="/media/ilhan-omar-encourages-dems-show-grace-former-trump-supporters-like-marjorie-taylor-greene" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;grace toward former Trump supporters&lt;/a&gt; who have broken with him on key issues after host Tommy Vietor played a viral clip of Greene in a recent interview urging the American people to "open their eyes" and realize that Trump is "not the same man that we supported" a decade ago.Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Omar, who traded barbs with the Georgia Republican for years, mentioned that she praised Greene on the House floor before her departure for condemning the war in Gaza.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Co-host Whoopi Goldberg sparked "The View" discussion by playing clips from both interviews and saying, "Really,Â the question is, can voters onÂ both sides of the aisle moveÂ past this insanity and doÂ something about what weâ€™reÂ seeing?Â Can people â€” can people say,Â â€˜Yes, we disagree on many things,Â but we agree on this, that thisÂ cannot continue.Â This house cannot stand.â€™&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"And thatâ€™s the key," Goldberg added, arguing that what Greene identifies as politically or plans to do does not matter as much as what she tells her fellow conservatives that the Trump presidency they got is &lt;a href="/media/rogan-says-voters-feel-betrayed-trumps-iran-strikes-after-he-campaigned-no-more-wars" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;not the one they envisioned&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Correct, she needs to do that," Hostin said. "But in terms of welcoming her with open arms like Joy wants to do and give her a big bear hug, Iâ€™m not going to do that."Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hostin blasted Americans who voted for Trump three times, claiming they turned the country into a mess.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Thatâ€™s why we need someone like her," Behar argued.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"You need her, but you donâ€™t need to welcome her. Iâ€™m sorry, it is unforgivable," Hostin insisted, eventually being told by Goldberg to calm down.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Greene did not immediately respond to a request for comment from 91±¬ÁÏ Digital.Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Marjorie Taylor Greene is a quitter who is pathetically trying to stay relevant by going on liberal media shows to bash President Trump," White House spokesman Davis Ingle told 91±¬ÁÏ Digital.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Unfortunately, Trump Derangement Syndrome has rotted former Congresswoman Greeneâ€™s peanut-sized brain."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.foxnews.com/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin agreed with Behar on trying to find common ground on key issues with people of otherwise opposing viewpoints. She went on to note how there have been Democrats who have bluntly said they &lt;a href="/media/jasmine-crockett-says-she-doesnt-need-convert-trump-supporters-her-texas-senate-bid" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;donâ€™t need to win Republican votes&lt;/a&gt;, only to find they were electorally defeated.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"You have to be willing to grow your coalition with &lt;a href="/media/andrew-schulz-turns-trump-over-budget-wars-epstein-documents-i-voted-none-this" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;people who got duped&lt;/a&gt;, who thought the economy was going to be stronger, thought the border was going to be secure, but it was only going to be the bad guys that were taken out, and you've got to welcome them in," she said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS?pid=AppArticleLink&amp;af_dp=foxnewsaf%3A%2F%2F&amp;af_web_dp=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fapps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Goldberg argued that people like Greene have a unique power to persuade her fellow conservatives to oppose the Trump administration because she voted lockstep with him on the vast majority of issues in the past.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Â "Itâ€™s not a bear hug," she said. "Itâ€™s like,Â â€˜OK, finally, Iâ€™m glad you sawÂ the light.Â Go and tell it on the mountain.â€™"&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <title>'The View' co-host claims she personally witnessed troubling behavior from Swalwell</title>
            <description>Griffin says she noticed the behavior in a business setting and 'filed it away' as something that made her uncomfortable</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;"The View" co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin claimed on Wednesday that she was privately disturbed by allegedly seeing California Rep. Eric Swalwell "overserved" with alcohol at an event.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Swalwell has &lt;a href="/politics/swalwell-announces-resignation-congress-amid-sexual-misconduct-allegations-torpedoed-gubernatorial-bid" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;ended his campaign for California&lt;/a&gt; governor and resigned from Congress after he was accused of sexual assault, as well as multiple reports alleging other misconduct with women. He has acknowledged "mistakes in judgment" but claimed the assault allegations against him are false.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Co-host Whoopi Goldberg noted that Arizona Sen. Ruben Gallego, one of Swalwell's closest friends and allies, "admitted there were &lt;a href="/politics/former-swalwell-ally-says-longtime-friendship-clouded-judgement-rumors-swirled-dc" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;rumors about Swalwellâ€™s flirtatious&lt;/a&gt; behavior for years."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Eric Swalwell lied to all of us," Gallego said at an impromptu press conference in his office earlier this week. "He lied to the most powerful people in this country, and they trusted him. They trusted him with some of the most sensitive spots in our government, whether it was on Judiciary Committee, Intel Committee, impeachingÂ &lt;a href="/category/person/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"&gt;Donald Trump."&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/stefanik-clashes-cnn-hosts-over-trumps-pope-comments-while-accusing-swalwell-criminal-conduct" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;STEFANIK CLASHES WITH CNN HOSTS OVER TRUMP'S POPE COMMENTS, WHILE ACCUSING SWALWELL OF 'CRIMINAL' CONDUCT&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He later added that this "clouded my judgment, myÂ friendship with him,"Â he continued. "Our family's friendship together with him clouded my judgment. And I was wrong. I deeply, deeply regret that."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Griffin noted reports that Swalwell's alleged misconduct was not a surprise to many observers, including herself.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I do think the rumors matter, because, to be honest, I had heard and even experienced â€” nothing wrong or criminal â€” but Iâ€™ve been with Eric Swalwell when he seemed overserved," she said, "Iâ€™m not saying something that I wouldnâ€™t have said to his face, and I filed it away. Just as a woman, you pay attention when youâ€™re like, â€˜This is a business setting. This is something Iâ€™m not super comfortable with.'"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"People who even had a little inkling should have stepped up and said something, and if you knew of something wrong, something criminal, you absolutely needed to," Griffin added.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/california-reporter-claims-eric-swalwells-conduct-was-known-raises-questions-about-local-support" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CALIFORNIA REPORTER CLAIMS ERIC SWALWELLâ€™S CONDUCT â€˜WAS KNOWN,â€™ RAISES QUESTIONS ABOUT LOCAL SUPPORT&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Griffin noted Monday that even the appearance of misconduct is not only a source of personal scandal, but can make one a vulnerable target for Americaâ€™s enemies.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Swalwell sat on the Intel Committee, and there were &lt;a href="/politics/swalwell-resignation-collides-china-linked-scandal-critics-demand-file-release" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;allegations he had a suspected&lt;/a&gt; Chinese spy, Fang Fang, who was associated with him in his office," she said. "Now, he was not found to have engaged in wrongdoing, but to me, my spidey senses from having worked at the Pentagon go off, which is it was an open secret that he had issues with women, that he was somebody who was susceptible, potentially to heavy drinking, to impropriety with women."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Americaâ€™s adversaries look for how to exploit that," Griffin added. "So that, to me, pinpoints it was openly known. Nobody did anything about it. But thank God that now &lt;a href="/politics/pelosi-california-dems-slam-swalwell-bombshell-sexual-assault-allegations-indefensible" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow"&gt;Democrats, Adam Schiff and others&lt;/a&gt;Â have called for him to step aside, and he did the right thing by doing it."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.foxnews.com/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS?pid=AppArticleLink&amp;af_dp=foxnewsaf%3A%2F%2F&amp;af_web_dp=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fapps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Swalwell's PR representatives and legal representation did not immediately respond to 91±¬ÁÏ Digital's requests for comment.&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <title>Joy Behar immediately corrected after claiming Jesus didn't call himself the Messiah</title>
            <description>Exchange erupted during segment about Trump's controversial AI image depicting himself in robes with holy light</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/category/entertainment/the-view" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;"The View"&lt;/a&gt; co-host Joy Behar was promptly corrected by co-host Sara Haines on Tuesday after she claimed that Jesus Christ did not declare himself to be the Messiah.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The hosts shared clips of people reacting to a post by President Donald Trump of what many critics have called aÂ &lt;a href="/media/trumps-meme-depicting-himself-jesus-christ-draws-backlash-from-allies" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;"blasphemous" AI art image&lt;/a&gt;Â seeming to portray him as a Jesus-like figure healing the sick.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Co-host Sara Haines said it appeared to be a case of something being foretold in Scripture, noting, "In Matthew and Mark in the Bible,Â Jesus alerts his disciples to notÂ be deceived by false prophets who will claim themselves to be the Christ, performing great signs and wonders."Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Every time [Trump] does these thingsÂ I canâ€™t help but, like, thinkÂ itâ€™s really on-the-nose here," Haines said.Â "Heâ€™s literally pretending to beÂ the coming of Christ."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/world/pope-warns-escalating-iran-conflict-could-tip-middle-east-into-irreparable-abyss" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;POPE WARNS ESCALATING IRAN CONFLICT COULD TIP MIDDLE EAST INTO â€˜IRREPARABLE ABYSSâ€™&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Letâ€™s face it, some ofÂ his supporters have likened himÂ to a savior-like figure," co-host Sunny Hostin agreed.Â "And I really hope at this pointÂ that they realize that he is aÂ false prophet.Â No question about it."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Joy Behar then claimed, "Jesus himself did not run around saying, 'Iâ€™m the Messiah, Iâ€™m the Messiah!â€™"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Her fellow co-hosts immediately rebuffed her claim â€” including Haines â€” who retorted, "Thatâ€™s exactly what Jesus said!"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"No he did not," Behar claimed. "Jesus was not narcissistic like this guy."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"When you are the Messiah, itâ€™s not narcissism to say it!" Haines said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Yes it is," Behar replied.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://noticias.foxnews.com/world/vatican-declines-join-trumps-gaza-peace-board" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;VATICAN DECLINES TO JOIN TRUMPâ€™S GAZA â€˜BOARD OF PEACE,â€™ CALLS FOR UN LEADERSHIP&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Shortly after feuding with Pope Leo XIV over the weekend, Trump upset many Christians with the controversial social media post.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Trump denied he was trying to portray himself as the Messiah, arguing the image of him in white and red robes with what appears to be holy light emanating from his hands was an attempt to portray "me as a doctor." He has since deleted the post.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Following the exchange between Behar and Haines on Tuesday, co-host Whoopi Goldberg interjected, declaring she was "going to move this along."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"The Pope has God with him," Goldberg said. "God will take care of this.Â God will take care of him," she added, before appearing to address Trump directly, saying, "Nobody believes you were aÂ doctor.Â Nobody. Not even your people. Your people donâ€™t believe it. Nobody believes it."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.foxnews.com/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS?pid=AppArticleLink&amp;af_dp=foxnewsaf%3A%2F%2F&amp;af_web_dp=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fapps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Goldberg went on to note that the Pope, in his role as &lt;a href="/category/us/religion/roman-catholic" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;leader of the Catholic Church&lt;/a&gt;, is supposed to encourage world leaders to seek peace, as co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin added that this was something Jesus preached as well, recalling, "Blessed are the peacemakers."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;91±¬ÁÏ Digital reached out to the White House but did not receive an immediate response.&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <title>Sunny Hostin doesn't know if president is the 'right position' for Harris, urges her to reconsider CA governor</title>
            <description>Harris announced in July 2025 she wouldn't pursue a gubernatorial race, and co-host Ana Navarro noted the deadline passed</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;"The View" co-host Sunny Hostin urged former Vice President &lt;a href="/category/person/kamala-harris" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Kamala Harris&lt;/a&gt; to reconsider running for California governor on Monday, as the co-hosts discussed Rep. Eric Swalwell's decision to end his campaign amid sexual assault allegations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I think the bigger question for me now is, you know, California, itâ€™s like running a country. Swalwell was running to be governor, and he was the lead candidate for the Democrats. I mean, California overtook Japan as the fourth-largest global economy. It has a GDP of $4.25 trillion. And so, Iâ€™d like to see Kamala Harris maybe put her hat back in the ring for &lt;a href="/category/us/us-regions/west/california" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Governor of California&lt;/a&gt;. I know that sheâ€™s talked about being Presidentâ€”I donâ€™t know if thatâ€™s the right position for herâ€”but my goodness, she certainly knows California," Hostin said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Co-host Ana Navarro said the deadline for entering the race had passed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The deadline to declare candidacy was March 6. The state's primary election will be held on June 2.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/politics/swalwell-campaign-rejects-outrageous-allegations-sexual-misconduct-dem-activists-issue-viral-warning" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SWALWELL CAMPAIGN REJECTS 'OUTRAGEOUS' ALLEGATIONS OF SEXUAL MISCONDUCT AS DEM ACTIVISTS ISSUE VIRAL WARNING&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Swalwell announced Sunday that he would be &lt;a href="/politics/eric-swalwell-exits-california-governor-race-apologizing-past-judgment-while-denying-claims" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;suspending his campaign&lt;/a&gt; for California governor, citing personal issues and ongoing allegations in a statement posted on X.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I am suspending my campaign for Governor," Swalwell wrote. "To my family, staff, friends, and supporters, I am deeply sorry for mistakes in judgment Iâ€™ve made in my past."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I will fight the serious, false allegations that have been made â€” but thatâ€™s my fight, not a campaignâ€™s," he added.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/politics/former-vice-president-kamala-harris-not-run-california-governor" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Harris announced in July&lt;/a&gt; of 2025 that she wouldn't pursue the gubernatorial race in California.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;However, the former presidential candidate said she was thinking about running for president last week.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hostin was a staunch supporter of Harris in 2024 after she replaced former President &lt;a href="/category/person/joe-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Joe Biden&lt;/a&gt; at the top of the Democratic ticket.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She &lt;a href="/media/kamala-harris-tells-the-view-she-cant-think-anything-she-would-have-done-differently-from-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;asked a pivotal question&lt;/a&gt; of Harris during an October 2024 interview with the former vice president that was seen as a big turning point for her campaign.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS?pid=AppArticleLink&amp;af_dp=foxnewsaf%3A%2F%2F&amp;af_web_dp=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fapps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Harris told the co-hosts during the interview ahead of the election that there wasn't anything she would have done differently than President Biden over their term.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Harris' office did not immediately return 91±¬ÁÏ Digital's request for comment.&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <title>'The View' host says Eric Swalwell's reputation with women was 'open secret' exploitable by enemies</title>
            <description>Former Pentagon official warned that Swalwell's reputation made him look easy to exploit by America's enemies</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;"The View" co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin said on Monday that Rep. Eric Swalwellâ€™s reputation with women was an "open secret" that made him exploitable by America's enemies.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/politics/eric-swalwell-exits-california-governor-race-apologizing-past-judgment-while-denying-claims" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Swalwell, D-Calif., has suspended his campaign&lt;/a&gt; for California governor after he was accused of sexual assault, as well as multiple reports alleging other misconduct with women. Swalwell has acknowledged "mistakes in judgment" but claimed the assault allegations against him are false.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Griffin, returning to "The View" after a stint on maternity leave, noted reports that Swalwell's alleged misconduct was not a surprise to many observers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Swalwell sat on the intel committee, and there were allegations he had a suspected Chinese spy, Fang Fang, who was associated with him in his office," she said. "Now, he was not found to have engaged in wrongdoing, but to me, my spidey senses from having worked at the Pentagon go off, which is it was an open secret that he had issues with women, that he was somebody who was susceptible, potentially to heavy drinking, to impropriety with women."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/california-reporter-claims-eric-swalwells-conduct-was-known-raises-questions-about-local-support" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CALIFORNIA REPORTER CLAIMS ERIC SWALWELLâ€™S CONDUCT â€˜WAS KNOWN,â€™ RAISES QUESTIONS ABOUT LOCAL SUPPORT&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Griffin added that allegations like those made against Swalwell were "disqualifying."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I think we need to remember that winning isnâ€™t everything, and you lose the plot when you think that," Griffin said. "When somebody does something thatâ€™s beyond the pale, that should be it, and we should move on and get back to that kind of society."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I think of the victims. These allegations are horrible. Theyâ€™re well-documented. This is, I mean, deeply reported," she added.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The other victim of the situation, she argued, is "the American public," arguing that even the reputation of habitual sexual scandal makes one look vulnerable to bad actors from Americaâ€™s rival powers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/politics/house-republican-plans-motion-oust-swalwell-congress-amid-sexual-assault-allegations" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;HOUSE REPUBLICAN PLANS MOTION TO OUST SWALWELL FROM CONGRESS AMID SEXUAL ASSAULT ALLEGATIONS&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Americaâ€™s adversaries look for how to exploit that," she continued. "So that, to me, pinpoints it was openly known. Nobody did anything about it. But thank God that now&lt;a href="/politics/pelosi-california-dems-slam-swalwell-bombshell-sexual-assault-allegations-indefensible" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt; Democrats, Adam Schiff and others&lt;/a&gt; and others have called for him to step aside, and he did the right thing by doing it."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Swalwell has also been urged by some Democrats to resign from Congress.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.foxnews.com/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"The accusations were 2019," co-host Sara Haines added. "This is post-MeToo, which was not just a â€˜letâ€™s dig out the ones that have done wrong things.' It was a loud warning that people will not be silenced anymore, and he arrogantly did that again in 2019."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.com/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;91±¬ÁÏ Digital&lt;/a&gt; reached out to Swalwell's campaign and did not receive immediate reply.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS?pid=AppArticleLink&amp;af_dp=foxnewsaf%3A%2F%2F&amp;af_web_dp=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fapps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <title>'The View' co-host claims show's criticism of having children was 'misconstrued'</title>
            <description>Sara Haines said her remarks on 'The View' were 'misconstrued' after responding to Isabel Brownâ€™s comments on marriage and motherhood</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/category/entertainment/the-view" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;"The View"&lt;/a&gt; co-host Sara Haines said Wednesday that criticism of her earlier comments on marriage and motherhood had been "misconstrued," responding to backlash tied to remarks made by Isabel Brown encouraging Gen Z women to prioritize marriage and having children.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"My ultimate beef with this is that it wraps a womanâ€™s worth up in her ovaries," Haines said on the &lt;a href="https://youtu.be/S2irvc1ATNY?si=7WrC9nwG2hjiPBxE&amp;t=138" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;"Behind the Table" podcast&lt;/a&gt;. "Marriage, children, itâ€™s a choice â€¦ The world has over 8 billion people. We no longer need to force people to procreate and pump out babies. We have arrived here."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The discussion came after the segment on the daytime talk show drew criticism online, particularly from Brown, who argued Hainesâ€™ remarks dismissed &lt;a href="/category/faith-values/family" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;traditional family values&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/fcc-launching-probe-abcs-the-view-amid-crackdown-equal-time-candidates" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;FCC LAUNCHING PROBE INTO ABC'S â€˜THE VIEWâ€™ AMID CRACKDOWN ON EQUAL TIME FOR CANDIDATES&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Haines said her intent was not to discourage &lt;a href="/family" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;marriage or motherhood&lt;/a&gt;, but to address what she described as societal pressure placed on women.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"My issue was with the greater message," Haines said. "I love babies. I love being married. I love all those things. But there's so much pressure in this world on women to define themselves by if they're married and if they have babies."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She said her perspective was informed by her own life experiences and those of women around her.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"My take comes from a place of empathy and life lived," Haines said. "Knowing so many women, having been single, like dating for years and not knowing if I was going to find my person to get married."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Haines said she believed the expectation that women can easily marry and have children does not reflect reality for many.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"They make it sound like this easy choice. Get married, have kids," she said. "There are so many amazing women I know that aren't meeting people."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/the-view-guest-host-calls-dems-stop-obsessing-over-trump-promote-better-future-instead" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;â€˜THE VIEWâ€™ GUEST HOST CALLS ON DEMS TO STOP OBSESSING OVER TRUMP, PROMOTE BETTER FUTURE INSTEAD&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She also pointed to challenges surrounding fertility and alternative paths to parenthood.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"So many people I know have struggled for some reason having babies," Haines said. "Whether it was fertility â€” Iâ€™m friends with a lot of gay couples that have had to fight non-traditional surrogates, all these things."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Haines said conversations about women frequently center on marital status and children.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"We ask women all the time about marriage and kids and that seems to be all they're worth," she said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"The beauty of progress in time is that we don't have to put that on people's shoulders â€¦ You do what you can and what you want because you have a life beyond that."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Haines said she believed her comments had been taken out of context by some conservative figures.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I refuse to read it because right when I saw some of the headlines, I thought, here we go again," Haines replied.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Conservative influencers have kind of misconstrued what you guys were saying on the show and what the point of it is," podcast host and "The View" executive producer Brian Teta said.Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I definitely think she misconstrued â€” whether that was willful or ignorance, she's missing my whole point," Haines said, referring to Brown.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Haines reiterated that her comments were meant to affirm women regardless of their life circumstances.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I know too many women that, for whatever reason, aren't married, don't have kids, and they matter," she said. "I would never want to dim someone's light in life by saying they matter less because of that."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/apps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;91±¬ÁÏ Digital reached out to Isabel Brown and The Daily Wire for comment, but did not immediately hear back.&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <title>'The View' hosts ask Rahm Emanuel if Trump started Iran war to distract from Epstein</title>
            <description>Joy Behar and guest host Whitney Cummings floated the theory while questioning Rahm Emanuel about Trump's decision to go to war with Iran</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;Co-hosts of "The View" mused during a conversation with former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel that the war in Iran was launched to distract from the Epstein files.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Emanuel, believed to be a potential presidential contender for the Democratic nomination, spoke about the ongoing war in Iran during his appearance on "The View." He warned that ultimately, the great responsibility of any leader in the White House is making hard choices between "bad and worse," arguing that President Donald Trump has very clearly opted for the latter.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"We have a president who makes a decision â€“ every president before him has rejected this idea because it doesn't work out," he said. "If Iran does not come forward, and we don't have a plan to open up the Strait of Hormuz, he will probably, for leverage purposes put our young &lt;a href="/media/whoopi-goldberg-erupts-over-trumps-iran-strategy-claims-hes-sending-people-lose-lives" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;men and women at risk&lt;/a&gt;."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"We know he's incompetent. I think that's a given. Why do you think he went in there?" co-host Joy Behar asked. "What is that this might be some &lt;a href="/media/the-view-argues-over-whether-iran-campaign-historic-blunder-like-iraq-keep-future-americans-safe" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;other reason why he did this?"&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/rogan-dave-smith-speak-about-how-trumps-iran-war-broke-his-coalition-could-hand-country-right-back-dems" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;ROGAN, DAVE SMITH SPEAK ABOUT HOW TRUMP'S IRAN WAR BROKE HIS COALITION, COULD HAND COUNTRY RIGHT BACK TO DEMS&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Because we stopped talking about the Epstein files," guest host Whitney Cummings suggested. "It worked perfectly."Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Do you agree with that?" Behar asked, "Because I agree with that."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"He could have given a different speech about degrading the nuclear capacity, the missile delivery, the terrorist organizations and Iran's disruption. But once he jumped the tracks into the political regime change, et cetera, first of all, you're not going to do that from the air. It's never been done in the war," Emanuel replied.Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Emanuel went on to argue that after Trumpâ€™s success in Venezuela and potential plans in Cuba, the president looked at a dynamic victory in Iran as his "road to Mount Rushmore."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Behar repeated her assertion that the Iran war is &lt;a href="/media/whoopi-goldberg-claims-trumps-actions-iran-meant-distract-from-nancy-guthrie-case" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;being used as a distraction&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"But it also keeps people off of the economy, it keeps people off the Epstein files," Behar said as co-hosts agreed. Yet, I think all we're talking about is Iran, Iran, Iran now."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/rogan-says-voters-feel-betrayed-trumps-iran-strikes-after-he-campaigned-no-more-wars" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;ROGAN SAYS VOTERS FEEL 'BETRAYED' BY TRUMP'S IRAN CAMPAIGN AFTER HE PLEDGED 'NO MORE WARS' FOR YEARS&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Emanuel went on to joke that it is not breaking news to anyone that Trump is something of a narcissist.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He went on to suggest that a major problem for U.S. presidents in the White House on a daily basis is that they walk past artwork every day of great and historic American presidents of the past, thinking of themselves as their latest successor.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The best way to help presidents, he said, would be to, "Take all those down and put Tyler, Buchanan, Pierce, all the bad guys, because by the time they get to the Oval Office, their head is exploding about themselves."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"You know what? To govern is to choose," Emanuel concluded. "He made a bad choice."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The White House responded to Emanuel's comments in a statement to 91±¬ÁÏ Digital.Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Rahm Emanuel cheered on Barack Hussein Obama as he entered into the disastrous Iran Nuclear Deal which enriched the terrorist Iranian regime and enabled its malign behavior. Past Presidents like Obama talked about the threat posed by Iran for 47 years, but only President Trump had the courage to take action â€“ now, Iranâ€™s ballistic missile capacity, naval capabilities, ability to arm and fund proxies, and dreams of possessing a nuclear weapon are degrading more by the day," a White House spokesperson said.Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.foxnews.com/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/download" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <title>'The View' co-hosts claim Usha Vance is 'addicted to power' in on-air attack against second lady</title>
            <description>The remarks follow Usha Vance's NBC News interview in which she said she never faces a 'litmus test' in her husband's political world</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;"The View" co-hosts Sunny Hostin and &lt;a href="/category/person/joy-behar" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Joy Behar&lt;/a&gt; attacked second lady Usha Vance on Tuesday as they suggested she was "addicted" to power and that their values should align because the country is in an "existential crisis."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hostin argued that Usha and Vice President &lt;a href="/category/person/jd-vance" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;JD Vance&lt;/a&gt;'s values did not align, as she quoted Vance once saying that he hoped Usha, who is Hindu, would "come to see" and believe in the Christian gospel.Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hostin said, "And sheâ€™s sitting there, sheâ€™s, you know, married to the vice president. She was a Democrat in 2014, sheâ€™s pregnant now, but I will say that it just couldnâ€™t be me. It wouldnâ€™t be me. I think our countryâ€™s in an existential crisis. This is not a game. I think your values need to align, especially at times like this, and some things are dealbreakers."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Behar pointed to the vice president's past criticism of President &lt;a href="/category/person/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Donald Trump&lt;/a&gt; and said Vance now kisses Trump's "butt every day."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hostin asked Behar, "And are you saying that maybe she has done that 180 so that her husband could also, for power?"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/lifestyle/jd-vance-discusses-interfaith-marriage-raising-christian-children-hindu-wife" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;JD VANCE DISCUSSES INTERFAITH MARRIAGE AND RAISING CHRISTIAN CHILDREN WITH HINDU WIFE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Of course! Sheâ€™s addicted to the power also, and the perks," Behar said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hostin went on to argue that the Vances were being hypocritical.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"So that feels like hypocrisy, because this is a smart woman. She is a lawyer. She was Yale-educated. I believe thatâ€™s where they met. This is a woman that had a life of her own and now all of a sudden, you know, maybe not so much. I donâ€™t know," she said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;During an NBC News interview on Monday, Vance was asked if she felt comfortable in the political universe she's in, as the interviewer noted she was a registered Democrat up until 2014.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/sports/vice-president-vance-second-lady-attend-winter-olympics-opening-ceremony" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;VICE PRESIDENT VANCE, SECOND LADY ATTEND WINTER OLYMPICS OPENING CEREMONY&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I do feel very comfortable in that no one has ever asked me to engage in any kind of litmus test on anything. And what Iâ€™ve found is that I was myself in 2014. I can be myself today. And I feel very comfortable in that world," Vance said. "I donâ€™t feel like I have to walk around pretending anything of any sort. I didnâ€™t think I had to do that [in 2014], actually. Sometimes I have thoughts that fit very comfortably into one side or another. Sometimes I have views that are way more idiosyncratic."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Co-host &lt;a href="/category/person/whoopi-goldberg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Whoopi Goldberg&lt;/a&gt; pointed out that Usha Vance had a lot going on with three kids and &lt;a href="/politics/second-lady-usha-vance-vice-president-expecting-their-fourth-child" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;another on the way&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Sheâ€™s got a lot of stuff on her mind. And one coming! Because, from what I recall â€” itâ€™s been so long â€” that is not an easy thing to carry these babies. And they seem to get bigger and bigger every year," she said. "Her life is her life, our lives are our lives. We all are trying to do the best we can. Iâ€™m not mad at any woman whoâ€™s trying to live her life. Iâ€™m not mad."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/usha-vance-debuts-storytime-second-lady-podcast-kids" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Usha Vance announced&lt;/a&gt; a new podcast on Monday called "Storytime with the Second Lady," a podcast for children where she plans to read popular children's books aloud alongside different guests.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS?pid=AppArticleLink&amp;af_dp=foxnewsaf%3A%2F%2F&amp;af_web_dp=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fapps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The vice president's office did not immediately return a request for comment.&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <title>Conservative influencer defends pro-family message, fires back after criticism from 'The View'</title>
            <description>Isabel Brown says the clip from her CPAC speech was 'wildly out of context,' accused the hosts of pushing 'anti-family propaganda'</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;Daily Wire host Isabel Brown fired back at "&lt;a href="/category/entertainment/the-view" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;The View&lt;/a&gt;" after the co-hosts blasted her comments urging young Americans to embrace marriage and motherhood, calling the backlash "elitist" and "wildly out of context."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"[That clip] was a very short two seconds of the greater conversation that we were having, clearly taken wildly out of context and with the intention to continue pushing the anti-family propaganda on the women of our generation that we saw spewed all over â€˜The Viewâ€™ yesterday," Brown said Tuesday on "Fox &amp; Friends."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The co-hosts of "The View" blasted Brown over remarks made at CPAC in Grapevine, Texas, last Thursday â€” particularly a moment in which she said, "If you're not encouraging your children to grow up and have the courage to get married and have kids, more kids than they can afford before they think they're ready, it is high time to start."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/politics/heritage-foundation-warns-america-dangerously-close-family-breakdown-point-no-return" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HERITAGE FOUNDATION WARNS AMERICA 'DANGEROUSLY CLOSE' TO FAMILY BREAKDOWN POINT OF NO RETURN&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"It is these choices, like deleting our dating apps and quitting birth control pills and saying â€˜I doâ€™ at the altar, that ultimately trickle down into the political policies that we will see save our country," she added.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"The View" co-host Sara Haines fired back on Monday, suggesting the mindset "wraps a woman's worth up in her ovaries."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/olena-zelenska-warns-abducted-ukranian-kids-may-take-dozens-years-return-praises-melania-trumps-help" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;OLENA ZELENSKA WARNS ABDUCTED UKRANIAN KIDS MAY TAKE â€˜DOZENS OF YEARSâ€™ TO RETURN, PRAISES MELANIA TRUMP'S HELP&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ana Navarro chimed in, saying, "Bottom line, if you're not paying my bills, you don't get to tell me what I do with my uterus."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sunny Hostin added, "I think it's just really reckless to be suggesting that people should have children when you now know in this country there's this &lt;a href="/media/the-view-co-hosts-blast-conservative-influencer-cpac-encouraging-young-women-have-more-children" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;affordability crisisâ€¦ so she's&lt;/a&gt; advocating for people to be born into poverty, people not being able to feed those children, and people not being able to educate those children and people being able to house those children..."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS?pid=AppArticleLink&amp;af_dp=foxnewsaf%3A%2F%2F&amp;af_web_dp=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fapps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Brown accused the co-hosts of being "out of touch," blaming their "elitism" while arguing wealthy hosts were hypocritically lecturing everyday Americans about having children.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"It's always about choice for these people until that choice is the beauty and the joy and the purpose of marriage and motherhood, which, of course, we should be encouraging people to strive for," she said.&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

            <title>'The View' co-hosts blast conservative influencer at CPAC for encouraging young women to have more children</title>
            <description>Guest host Whitney Cummings quipped that marriage shouldn't require 'courage,' taking a direct swipe at Brown's conservative messaging</description>
            <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;Multiple co-hosts of "The View" took turns blasting conservative influencer Isabel Brown on Monday for her statement encouraging young women to have more children.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), Brown, a 28-year-old influencer and recent mother of a 1-year-old child, advised it was "high time" time to start "encouraging your children to grow up and have the &lt;a href="/opinion/welcome-dating-recession-why-young-americans-giving-up-love" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;courage to get married&lt;/a&gt; and have kids â€” more kids than they can afford before they think they're ready."Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She argued this is one of many key choices, such as getting off dating apps, getting off birth control pills, and saying &lt;a href="/opinion/solution-housing-affordability-problem-marriage" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;"I do" at the altar&lt;/a&gt;, which "ultimately trickle down into the political policies that we will see save our country."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Co-host Whoopi Goldberg, baffled by the clip, argued, "Years ago they used to come after women of color and accuse women of color of doing this very thing," before yelling "what!" repeatedly.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/opinion/more-more-gen-z-women-they-dont-want-kids-young-mom-heres-what-they-get-wrong" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;MORE AND MORE GEN Z WOMEN SAY THEY DONâ€™T WANT KIDS. AS A YOUNG MOM, HEREâ€™S WHAT THEY GET WRONG&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"My ultimate beef with this is that it wraps a womanâ€™s worth up in her ovaries in a way that for too long has happened," co-host Sara Haines replied. "The whole womenâ€™s movement was not about bucking the trend of staying at home or loving tradition. It was giving women a choice to do what they wanted."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"They act like people are sitting around just saying yeah, â€˜No, Iâ€™m good,â€™" she continued. "The fact we keep putting this on women, that their only worth in society, politics, policy is if they produce a baby or have a husband is the stupidest, most old-fashioned thing."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"The world has over 8 billion people! We no longer need to force people to procreate and pump out babies. We have arrived here. Women now and girls now have a choice," she said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"But also where is the call to responsibility for the men who make â€” who help make these children?" co-host Ana Navarro asked. "I donâ€™t know why itâ€™s always people lecturing women what they have to do or not to do. Bottom line, if youâ€™re not paying my bills, you donâ€™t get to tell me what I do with my uterus."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media/ex-meta-boss-sheryl-sandberg-rips-tradwife-trend-sexist-harmful-women" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;EX-META BOSS SHERYL SANDBERG RIPS TRADWIFE TREND AS 'SEXIST,' HARMFUL TO WOMEN&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Guest host Whitney Cummings joked that one does not need "courage" &lt;a href="/opinion/disturbing-gen-z-social-media-trend-threatens-america-most-important-institution" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;to get married&lt;/a&gt;, saying, "If your marriage requires courage, I have a lot of questions about your husband."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She went on to criticize Brown specifically, saying that according to her research, she has a 1-year-old at the age where they sleep all day.Â &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Wait 'til your kid is up and walking, and you spend most of your day trying to get its shoes on. Youâ€™re probably going to rethink how many kids you have," Cummings said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I think itâ€™s really reckless to be suggesting that people should have more children when you now know in this country thereâ€™s this affordability crisis," co-host Sunny Hostin said, claiming that a married, two-person household needs to make over $400,000 a year in order for childcare to be affordable.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"So sheâ€™s advocating for people to be born into poverty, people not being able to feed those children, people not being able to educate those children and people not being able to house those children at the same time when this government is cutting all of the services that would allow people to have families and big families."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/media" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS?pid=AppArticleLink&amp;af_dp=foxnewsaf%3A%2F%2F&amp;af_web_dp=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fapps-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Whoopi challenged Brownâ€™s rhetoric about encouraging young women to not be hesitant to have families, challenging her to go back in time and see if her opinions change.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;91±¬ÁÏ Digital reached out to Brown, and she responded, "I'm truly sad for the hate and contempt â€˜The Viewâ€™ shows toward one of the most beautiful things about womanhood. Their godless, anti-human propaganda is heartbreaking, but in todayâ€™s society, sadly not shocking."&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;She continued, "They shriek like demons at the simple, joyful, timeless truth that young women should want to get married and have babies. Family is the greatest threat to their ideology, and they know it."&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;"Young Americans â€” reject this with all your heart!" she warned.&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>
