Bigotry from The View. The panel accuses Justice Clarance Thomas of being a race traitor and Justice Coney Barrett of being a traitor to women.
"He's to the right of Attila the Hun ... they put him in there thinking, oh, a black man will go against voting rights, which he does."
This bigotry showed up earlier in the segment when Sara Haines noted: "There's only been two black men" in the history of the court.
And Sunny Hostin responded by saying: "And one doesn't really represent the black community."
Joy Behar jumps in and declared the judiciary a "dictatorial branch of the government."
Adding: "I always feel like that particular branch of government is so anti-democracy."
In the first clip in this thread, Behar used air quotes when noting Justice Coney Barrett is "a woman."
She did the same when she described Justice Thomas as "a black guy, a black man."
Whoopi warns of the GOP's "big plan" to steal voting rights from black Americans then steal them from women.
She goes on to claim that schools are no longer allowed to teach kids about Anne Frank, the Holocaust, and slavery.
Behar says the right wants to destroy the country.
Building off of that, Behar asserts of Republicans: "You cannot reason with these people. They are shameless, and they will destroy us."
The panel doubles down and declares that the GOP is trying to take the right to vote away from women. "It's happening!"
The irony of (in the first vid) saying people "want to be manipulated" when you're spewing this kind of hatred and dangerous rhetoric.
Exploiting MLK Day, Whoopi says "these voting rights ... we will get them back."
Unironically, she declared: "We fought you before many times and we'll fight you again."
In reality, it was Democrats who opposed civil rights.
For her part, co-host Sunny Hostin lied to her viewers and erroneously claimed that legislation gainst Critical Race Theory in schools meant "children all over the country ... won't learn about Dr. King's work."
And as if Americans didn't know their own history about slavery, the Civil War, and the fight for civil rights, Joy Behar suggests the country needed "psychotherapy." "Learn your history, damn it! ... go back to learn the history of their childhood, which informs the present."
Tucker Carlson's interview with innocent Kyle Rittenhouse begins with Rittenhouse speaking about how he wanted to help his community and he was concerned about the riots and destruction.
Speaking about the police response, Rittenhouse says the city of Kenosha didn't give them "the support they needed. The National Guard should have been called ... the city of Kenosha failed the community. The governor, Tony Evers, failed the community..."
Rittenhouse recounts his first run-in with convicted child rapist Rosenbaum, when Rosenbaum threatened to kill him. "What kind of sense did you get from Rosenbaum, I mean, that sounds deranged," Carlson asks.
On CBS's Face the Nation, reporter Mark Strassman repeats the debunked LIE that "Rittenhouse drove in from Illinois armed for battle." He was not charged with that and it came out during the trial that the rifle was in Kenosha, where Rittenhouse has family and where he worked.
Moderator Margaret Brennan allowed the LIE to be repeated again when NAACP president and CEO Derrick Johnson falsely claimed Kyle "illegally purchased a gun, traveled across state lines to protect property that was not his for owners who did not invite him..."
Johnson went on to claim Rittenhouse took up "the mantle" of white supremacists with almost no pushback from Brennan. He also falsely claimed Rittenhouse went to a "peaceful" Black Lives Matter "protest" that was in response to "innocent" Jacob Blake getting shot by police.
Chris Cuomo starts his show by declaring: "There's plenty to be upset about. It is too easy to kill in this society. " He then suggests "there are no questions here tonight that this outcome is problematic." Adding; "...too many other kids get in trouble for way less."
After raising the question about why Grosskreutz had his gun, Cuomo asserts: "I'm not happy. There's nothing to be happy about here. Today's verdict of not guilty doesn't mean the actions on August 25th were innocent." And attacked Wisconsin's self-defense law as too weak.
He followed up my mocking Rittenhouse's emotional reaction to hearing the not guilty verdict. And after attacking self-defense again, he argued that Rittenhouse defending himself from 3 attackers was "legally justified but still wrong."
Bill Maher speaks with Chris "Fredo" Cuomo about how "wokeness" is killing the Democratic Party. "I keep saying this to the Democratic Party. The reason why you're so toxic is because you have become the party of no common sense."
@NickFondacaro Cuomo pushes back by flashing his hatred for Republicans. "Why would anybody embrace, if they want normal, a group of people/party who want to destroy all of the institutions that secure our normalcy?" Maher notes that people care about stuff close to home.
When they move on to CRT, Fredo suggests parents are too stupid to understand it: "CRT means nothing to anybody. They don't know what the acronym stands for. It's really not taught anywhere ... feel overwhelms facts all the time in elections."
