Sunny Hostin says she brought her son to the police to prevent harassment calls from her all-white neighborhood



In a bizarre moment on "The View," co-host Sunny Hostin offered her paranoia about racism from her white neighbors as evidence of racial tension in America.

The hosts were discussing a newly released Netflix documentary titled "The Perfect Neighbor," about a white woman who shot her black female neighbor in Florida, when Hostin made the comments. They described the documentary as "heart-wrenching" and "powerful."

'I know that black boys are not given the presumption of innocence and the presumption of youth.'

Hostin told the story in the context that the black mother who was shot had also gone to defend her child from racist harassment.

"As a mother of black children, I know that black boys are not given the presumption of innocence and the presumption of youth," Hostin said.

She then offered the story about her son.

"For me, what was interesting was I have had to be in the position where I have gone to my local police department because I know my son is going to be training for the Junior Olympics — running around the neighborhood in an all-white neighborhood — and I have brought him to the police and said, ‘He belongs to me; this is my son. Do not harass him; do not stop him,'" she recalled.

"So she was doing what so many black mothers do," Hostin added.

Video of the comments was posted to social media, where many users responded with ridicule.

"Ironic. She makes the absolute worst assumptions about her White Neighbors having the absolute worst assumptions about her," read one response.

"Her accusation isn't remotely credible. She could easily choose to live in an all-black neighborhood and see how safe for son is then," responded another user.

"This is the kind of delusional performance that’s made The View a circus instead of a serious show," read another response. "Sunny Hostin turns every personal anecdote into some grand race narrative like she’s living in a 1950s movie instead of a multimillion-dollar mansion."

Others, however, offered their own stories in confirmation of the bias Hostin was describing.

"It happens. I live in a gated community, and I have been there for over 13 years, and they still call the local police on me while I am out walking my dog at least 3 times a month," responded another user. "It has gotten to the point where I know all the cops by name, and they know mine."

The entire segment about the documentary can be viewed on the show's YouTube channel.

‘Real Time’ Crowd Roars for Bill Maher Pointing out Hypocrisy of Protesters

‘The View’ co-hosts try to humiliate Cheryl Hines over vaccines and RFK Jr.— and fail miserably



If the show “The View” isn’t paid for by advertising from pharmaceutical companies, you’d never know, because they defend vaccines with a tenacity that can only be rivaled by the manufacturers themselves.

And in a recent interview with Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy’s wife, Cheryl Hines, the panel could not have fought harder in favor of those pharmaceutical companies — never once grazing the truth despite minutes of speaking over Hines.

“You know, Cheryl, it’s not fair to really put you on the spot about him because you’re his wife. I know that. But when you say that they are pro-vaccine, it seems as though Bobby and Trump are casting doubt on the efficacy of the vaccine, which makes Americans very nervous,” co-host Joy Behar said.

“So, that’s the problem that we’re having,” she added.


“It’s interesting because I don’t know if you saw ‘60 Minutes’ just did a piece about the vaccine injury compensation program. So, people that have had vaccine injuries can be compensated if they can prove it. And they have paid out $5.4 billion for vaccine injuries,” Hines replied.

“So, my question is, can we do better?” she asked.

“Is it all vaccines or just the COVID vaccine?” Whoopi Goldberg interjected, to which Hines replied, “It’s all vaccines.”

“So, the question is — yes to vaccines. Yes, they are important, and they are an important part of our health care. Can we do better? Can we make them safer? Can we listen to parents who say, ‘My child got the vaccine and changed and stopped hitting markers, stopped developing the way they were developing.’ Can we listen to people when they say that instead of saying, ‘You’re crazy?’” Hines continued.

But that wasn’t all the ladies of ‘The View’ went after Hines for.

Sunny Hostin called RFK the “least qualified Department of Health and Human Services head that we’ve had in history,” lamenting that this is “very dangerous.”

Having previously pointed out that Obama’s head of HHS was an economist, Hines responded, “Why is he less qualified than an economist?”

“He has spent his career studying toxins, studying people’s health, fighting for one guy who was using Roundup for his job,” Hines continued.

“He has also spread a lot of misinformation, a lot of chaos, a lot of confusion. And I think it’s just a very dangerous thing,” Hostin continued, adding, “and I say it with the utmost respect.”

BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales isn’t shocked by what she’s hearing from the women on ‘The View,’ but she is disgusted.

“‘The utmost respect,’” she mocks. “Like, it’s just so tacky. ‘With all due respect, I actually think your husband is a terrible ... person.’ Like, you can’t just say stuff like that. And it’s just so laughable.”

Gonzales points out that Joe Biden’s HHS secretary was Xavier Becerra, who had zero medical background.

“He was also a former politician and a lawyer. And the closest thing that he came to anything health-related was bringing felony charges against the Center for Medical Progress activists who exposed Planned Parenthood for allegedly selling fetal tissue,” Gonzales explains.

Not only that, but Biden’s assistant secretary for health was “Rachel” Levine — a transgender woman.

“That just tells you all you need to know about all of these recent Health and Human Services secretaries who haven’t given a s**t that we have become more sick,” Gonzales says, “We have become sicker than ever before.”

‘The View’ praises Pope Leo’s controversial pro-life remarks



After the pope’s controversial comments on abortion — where he aimed his ire at pro-lifers and pointed out what he seemed to believe was hypocrisy surrounding their stance on the death penalty — those on the left are feeling emboldened.

Especially the women on “The View.”

“You know, I think he’s right. If you are pro-choice and pro-death penalty, you’re at least consistent,” Joy Behar said in response to Pope Leo XIV’s statement.

“As a lifelong Catholic, I am against abortion. I’m also against the death penalty. I’m also against guns. I’m also against the starvation of children. I’m a humanitarian above all because I believe that all life is precious,” Sunny Hostin replied.


“That’s why I find there is a hypocrisy with certain Christians who are pro-life, but they will pull that electric chair switch. They are pro-life, but they have their AR-15s in their cabinet. They are pro-life, but they don’t mind immigrant families being torn from each other. They are pro-life, but they don’t care about little children’s subsidies being taken away from them. That is not pro-life,” she added.

“Let’s just take a quick survey,” BlazeTV host Pat Gray says on “Pat Gray Unleashed.” “For or against the starvation of children?”

“I’ve got to be for that, okay. Because we’re evil Republicans,” he says.

“I just can’t take this line of reasoning that has no reason involved with it,” Gray continues, noting that the death penalty and abortion aren’t even close to the same.

“It boggles my mind how you can draw that equivalency,” he adds.

Sunny Hostin melts down over Stephen Colbert's removal, says cancellation of 'Late Show' is 'dismantling of our Constitution'



"The View" co-host Sunny Hostin went on a melodramatic rant regarding the news of CBS canceling Stephen Colbert's "The Late Show." The liberal talk show host claimed that Colbert's upcoming dismissal could be the start of the "dismantling of our Constitution."

Colbert, 61, recently announced that CBS was canceling "The Late Show" in May 2026.

'If the comedians are being attacked, then that means our Constitution is being dismantled.'

Paramount Global, the parent company of CBS, said in a statement, "We consider Stephen Colbert irreplaceable and will retire 'The Late Show' franchise at that time."

Paramount Global stressed, "This is purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night. It is not related in any way to the show’s performance, content, or other matters happening at Paramount."

Inside sources allegedly told the New York Post that CBS is canceling "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" for financial reasons and not political, because the late-night show lost "between $40 million and $50 million a year."

Colbert has an annual salary of $20 million, a person familiar with the show's operations told the Wall Street Journal. "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" has a staff of 200 employees.

As Blaze News reported earlier this month, Paramount and CBS settled a lawsuit initiated by President Donald Trump regarding a "deceitful" "60 Minutes" interview with then-Vice President Kamala Harris — who was the Democratic nominee running against Trump at the time. In the settlement, $16 million will be designated to Trump's future presidential library and to the president's fees and costs.

Before his dismissal, Colbert reacted to the settlement by skewering his own employer during a "Late Show" monologue: "I am offended, and I don't know if anything will ever repair my trust in this company."

However, the hosts of "The View" were skeptical that the dismissal of Colbert was driven by financial motives rather than political retribution because of the timing.

Hostin said, "My concern is, if it is political, then everyone should be concerned. People on the right should be concerned. People on the left should be concerned. Because it's very clear that, if it is political, this is the dismantling of our democracy. This is the dismantling of our Constitution. Right?"

"The First Amendment is the First Amendment for a reason, and that is freedom of the press, freedom of speech, freedom to speak truth to power. If that is taken away, if the comedians are being attacked, then that means our Constitution is being dismantled," Hostin said to a cheering studio audience. "That means the very rubric of our democracy is being dismantled. And I think every single person should be really, really concerned about it."

RELATED: Colbert gets canceled — by CBS, not conservatives

As outrage swelled over the cancellation of Colbert’s late-night show, Hostin rushed to praise progressive Sens. Elizabeth Warren (Mass.) and Bernie Sanders (Vt.), who are asking for answers about whether the decision was political.

Hostin declared, "We must protect our Constitution, and we must protect our democracy. This is bigger than just the cancellation of a television show!"

Arnold Schwarzenegger goes full patriot on ‘The View,’ derails Joy Behar’s anti-ICE ambush



On June 17, Arnold Schwarzenegger braved the coven that is ABC’s “The View.” Joy Behar tried to snare him with a question about ICE raids, but it didn’t go in the America-hating direction she hoped it would. In fact, it went in the completely opposite direction.

Pat Gray of “Pat Gray Unleashed” plays the clip of the Terminator’s epic pro-America speech.

“You're an immigrant in this country. Did you have a visceral reaction to what [ICE is] doing?” Behar asked.

“I'm so proud and happy that I was embraced by the American people,” Schwarzenegger responded. “I came over here at the age of 21 with absolutely nothing. And then to create a career like that — I mean, in no other country in the world could you do that.”

“My bodybuilding career … my acting career, becoming governor, the beautiful family that I have created — all of this is because of America,” he continued. “This is the greatest country in the world, and it is the land of opportunity.”

Schwarzenegger then announced that he will be giving the keynote speech at Mount Vernon on July 4 to celebrate the 250th anniversary of America. The event will include a naturalization ceremony — a formal rite of passage in which legal immigrants who have met the requirements to become U.S. citizens take the Oath of Allegiance, officially granting them U.S. citizenship. During the ceremony, these new citizens pledge loyalty to the United States, renounce allegiance to foreign governments, and agree to uphold the Constitution.

Schwarzenegger made it crystal clear that he loves this ceremony. “It's really a great, great celebration, and this is what this is all about — to celebrate people becoming Americans and coming to America,” he said.

All this while, the panel was politely nodding along, occasionally adding a “that’s true” or a “that’s great.” But then Schwarzenegger said something that caused their countenances to visibly sour.

“But the key thing also is at the same time, we got to do things legal,” he said. “Those people that are doing illegal things in America and the foreigners, they are not smart.”

“When you come to America, you’re a guest, and you have to behave like a guest. Like when I go to someone’s house and I’m a guest, then I will do everything I can to keep things clean … and do everything that is the right thing to do rather than committing a crime or being abusive,” he continued.

That’s when Sunny Hostin placed her manicured, heavily ringed hand on his arm as if to say, “All right, honey, don’t go there.”

But he would not be deterred. “The important thing is when you become an immigrant to think about: Okay, I go to America because I want to use America for the great opportunities that America has in education, in jobs, creating a family. … Then I have to give something back,” he said, arguing that immigrants “have a responsibility … to give back to America.”

They “didn't expect conservative Arnold from 30 years ago”; they wanted “‘screw your freedom’ from five years ago,” says Pat.

To see the footage of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s patriotic speech that left “The View’s” hosts deeply uncomfortable, watch the video above.

Watch: Schwarzenegger shuts down Joy Behar's attempt to ignite anti-ICE sentiment on 'The View,' says immigrants must behave



Arnold Schwarzenegger shut down Joy Behar when the co-host of "The View" attempted to goad him into projecting anti-ICE sentiment with a loaded question. Instead, Schwarzenegger redirected the conversation to how incredible the United States is for immigrants and how those coming to the country must "behave like a guest."

Schwarzenegger appeared on "The View" on Tuesday, where Behar asked the former Republican governor of California if he had a "visceral reaction" to raids by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement attempting to detain illegal aliens.

'And those people that are doing illegal things in America, they’re the foreigners. They are not smart because when you come to America, you’re a guest, and you have to behave like a guest.'

Rather than taking the divisive bait from Behar, Schwarzenegger waxed poetically about how thankful and lucky he is to be a citizen of the United States.

"I'm so proud and happy that I was embraced by the American people like that," Schwarzenegger stated.

The bodybuilder turned Hollywood action movie star explained, "I mean, imagine: I came over here at the age of 21 with absolutely nothing. And then to create a career like that, I mean, in no other country in the world could you do that."

Schwarzenegger legally immigrated to the United States from Austria in 1968 and then became a U.S. citizen in 1983.

Schwarzenegger said the incredible achievements in his life are "all because of America."

"So this is why I am so, so happy to see firsthand that this is the greatest country in the world, and this is the land of opportunity," he continued.

Schwarzenegger proclaimed that he is a "proud American" and a "proud immigrant."

He added that the United States has a "great history" with immigrants but stressed that those seeking opportunities in the U.S. must come here legally.

"But the key thing also, at the same time, you've got to do things legal," he said. "And those people that are doing illegal things in America, they’re the foreigners. They are not smart because when you come to America, you’re a guest, and you have to behave like a guest."

"Like when I go to someone’s house and I’m a guest, then I will do everything I can — keep things clean and to make my bed and to do everything that is the right thing to do — rather than committing a crime or be abusive or something like that. So that doesn't really work in this country," the "Terminator" actor said.

Seemingly not in agreement with his legal immigration sentiment, "The View" co-host Sunny Hostin is seen on video tapping Schwarzenegger's arm to interrupt him mid-sentence. Hostin then attempted to butt in verbally on multiple occasions.

However, Schwarzenegger ignored Hostin and continued to make his point.

Schwarzenegger noted that legal immigrants who "use America for the great opportunities that America has, in education, jobs, creating a family, all of those things," have a responsibility.

Schwarzenegger declared that legal immigrants have a "responsibility ... to give back to America and to pay back America and to go do something for your community for no money whatsoever."

Schwarzenegger said it was important for legal immigrants to "make this country a better place."

After the audience applauded Schwarzenegger, "The View" co-host Whoopi Goldberg attempted to pour cold water on his patriotic speech.

"Right, but, Arnold, don’t forget there’s — 90% of the people who come here are trying to do the right thing," Goldberg claimed.

Goldberg then attempted to steer the conversation back to the efforts by ICE agents to detain individuals who are in the country illegally.

"And a lot of what’s happening right now is people are getting snatched who shouldn’t be snatched out of the country," Goldberg opined. "People who have visas, people who have all those things. So, we want all the right people. We don’t want people who are doing bad stuff."

Hostin blurted, "Immigrants are much less likely to commit crimes in this country than actual American-born citizens."

Hostin then brought the discussion back to the anti-ICE protests by rehashing how President Donald Trump ordered the National Guard to assist federal immigration agents in Los Angeles earlier this month, despite California Gov. Gavin Newsom not welcoming the troops into the city.

Schwarzenegger noted that the National Guard serves under both state and federal command, and that the president can federalize the National Guard in certain circumstances.

Just Security — an independent, nonpartisan, daily digital law and policy journal — stated, "Once federalized, National Guard troops come under the full command and control of the secretary of defense. In essence, National Guard troops become part of the federal military until and unless they are returned to state status."

Schwarzenegger emphasized that it is "very important" for the president and governors to "work together" to achieve a common goal.

‘The racism of low expectations': Sunny Hostin says black people aren’t capable of getting IDs



Critics of voter ID who argue minorities are barred from voting because it’s too difficult for them to get to the DMV fail to see that their whining about marginalization is actually fueled by racism.

Take “The View’s” Sunny Hostin as an example. In a recent interview, Hostin said, “Black people don’t have cars, don’t have drivers licenses, so it’s sort of a vestige of post-slavery laws where black people had to prove their right to vote, and oftentimes they couldn't vote because they couldn't pass some crazy test or they didn't have the appropriate ID.”

“It's a brilliant notion that less voter ID laws allows more people to vote, and most democracies do it that way. We're the only ones that really don't do it that way,” she added.

“That’s an absolute lie,” says Pat Gray of “Pat Gray Unleashed.” “The racism of low expectations might be the worst kind of racism of all.”

“Your normal run-of-the-mill racism — that's just based on ignorance. But this — the racism of low expectations — for that you have to believe, as so many of these left-wing elitist numbskulls do, that blacks are incapable of obtaining a photo ID, which is so incredibly demeaning,” he sighs. “It means that you believe they're too stupid, too lazy, too incompetent.”

“Not only can you not figure out how to obtain this impossible task of a photo ID or where such a thing might be located, but they also think you can't scrape together the five bucks” it takes to pay for an ID.

While Sunny Hostin might be dumb enough to actually believe that, Pat knows what the Democrat Party is really after: not equity but dependency.

Democrats need minorities to “have to depend on the benevolent benefactors on the left to continue to take care of them their whole lives,” he says, calling the notion “so condescending” and “so insulting.”

“But this is what the left has always done to minorities. They keep them dependent on their liberal lords and ladies — their betters. To them, blacks are just cattle, and they — the elitists — are the ranchers,” he explains.

As a result of minorities’ devotion to the Democrat Party, “they're going to continue to treat [them] like garbage, as they have for the past several centuries; they're going to continue to lead [them] around by the nose and make sure that [they] never exceed their incredibly low expectations,” says Pat.
