The View: 'Ridiculous' for Kavanaugh to Fear Liberal Mob Hunting Him

July 11th, 2022 1:54 PM

Last week, conservative Justice Brett Kavanaugh and his family were forced to flee a D.C. restaurant out the back door after an angry liberal mob gathered outside the front entrance. Of course, this came after a liberal extremist attempted to assassinate the Justice at his home. But the wicked coven of ABC’s The View returned from their vacation on Monday and decried the protectionary absconding as pure “hypocrisy” and “ridiculous.”

Getting to this “hop topic” after a commercial break, Whoopi Goldberg touted how “President Biden considers whether to declare a public health emergency to expand abortion access, he's encouraging Americans to keep protesting, and millions have been taking it to the streets.”

Goldberg and faux Republican Ana Navarro openly mocked how the Kavanaugh family were forced to leave the restaurant:

GOLDBERG: Last week justice Brett Kavanaugh had to leave through the back door of a D.C. steakhouse because of a peaceful demonstration out front, which prompted Pete Buttigieg’s husband Chasten to tweet, “sounds like he just wanted some privacy to make his own dining decisions.” Now --

NAVARRO: You ain't ever seen shade like gay man shade. I mean, they're, like, in a different level. Let me tell you this. As far as Brett Kavanaugh, let me take out my little violin.

Ignoring the assassination attempt, the ongoing death threats, and the bounties placed on the conservative justices, Navarro proclaimed “as long as there's no violence, as long as there's no harassment, I think the freedom to protest your public officials – is a sacred American right.”

 

 

Acting out The Most Dangerous Game with U.S. Supreme Court justices is not a legitimate form of “protest” protected by the Constitution.

Mentally unstable Sunny Hostin described the Kavanaugh family’s fearful retreat as “terrible hypocrisy” because supposedly the crowd was “peacefully protesting, they were protesting outside of the restaurant, and he never saw them and he never heard them.”

“That is just so ridiculous,” she whined. Adding: “Secretary Buttigieg,” who was not there “handled it really well by explaining, as a public official himself, he welcomes in a sense that sort of peaceful protest.”

Self-enriching fake Republican Alyssa Farah Griffin opined how “the right to peacefully to assemble, is enshrined in our American values.” She then asserted, without evidence, “this was not an extreme case” and that Kavanaugh “was not at risk or in danger.”

How could she possibly know if someone in the crowd was armed with a knife or a gun concealed on their person? And again, with the death threats and past attempts on his life, why would be put himself and his family into a situation where they could be at risk?

Despite denying what the Kavanaughs were facing, she then had the nerve to admit “we're living in a hyper-partisan political environment where I do think taking down the tone a bit and the temperature is important.” And she invoked the Congressional Baseball shooting where some of her former bosses were almost killed by a liberal, MSNBC-viewing extremist.

This griping about Kavanaugh ducking away from a radical liberal crowd came over a month after The View decried calls for increased security for the conservative justices.

These disregard for the safety for Justice Kavanaugh and his family was made possible because of lucrative sponsorships from Ensure and General Mills. Their contact information is linked.

WHOOPI GOLDBERG: So, welcome back. So, as President Biden considers whether to declare a public health emergency to expand abortion access, he's encouraging Americans to keep protesting, and millions have been taking it to the streets.

Last week justice Brett Kavanaugh had to leave through the back door of a D.C. steakhouse because of a peaceful demonstration out front, which prompted Pete Buttigieg’s husband Chasten to tweet, “sounds like he just wanted some privacy to make his own dining decisions.” Now --

ANA NAVARRO: You ain't ever seen shade like gay man shade. I mean, they're, like, in a different level. Let me tell you this. As far as Brett Kavanaugh, let me take out my little violin.

GOLDBERG: Let me – Let me – Let me just finish the thing, and then --

NAVARRO: Go to it.

GOLDBERG: Then go to it. Pete defended the tweet and the protesters saying that public officials need to respect the right to peacefully protest. Now, do you agree?

NAVARRO: As long as there's no violence, as long as there's no harassment, I think the freedom to protest your public officials -- and they're not elected officials, but they are public officials, they’re government officials is a sacred American right.

SUNNY HOSTIN: Yeah.

NAVARRO: Look. I think it is incredibly important that the justices, that the people in elected office realize just how angry so much of America is. And that the Americans who are outraged, who are angered by this, keep that anger and channel that anger in the ballot box.

HOSTIN: Yeah. It was just terrible hypocrisy I think by the Justice and by those that were saying it was just so unfair that these folks were protesting, when not only were they peacefully protesting, they were protesting outside of the restaurant, and he never saw them and he never heard them.

GOLDBERG: No. No.

HOSTIN: That is just so ridiculous to make, you know, this big deal out of it, and I think Secretary Buttigieg handled it really well by explaining, as a public official himself, he welcomes in a sense that sort of peaceful protest.

NAVARRO: [Inaudible due to crosstalk] – Brett Kavanaugh, let me tell you, the Morton hot chocolate cake –

HOSTIN: Is delicious.

NAVARRO:  Is delicious.

HOSITN: Is delicious. He was at Morton's Steakhouse.

NAVARRO: I’d be upset too.

GOLDBERG: Everything revolves around food at this table. Everything. You mention coffee, they know the best coffee, the greatest stuff. Go ahead, baby. I'm sorry.

ALYSSA FARAH GRIFFIN: I think. Listen, the right to peacefully to assemble, is enshrined in our American values. And this was not an extreme case. Like, he was not at risk or in danger.

HOSTIN: No.

GRIFFIN: The one thing I would say this: I think we're living in a hyper-partisan political environment where I do think taking down the tone a bit and the temperature is important. This by no means veered on it, but obviously January 6, which we talk about a lot, showed political violence happening in our country.

I was working for members of the freedom caucus when the congressional shooting took place, and it was bosses of mine who were targeted years ago. I want to make sure that as we are protesting these -- having these fundamental American conversations about what we want our country to be and who we should be, that we just make sure we're keeping the temperature down, it doesn't turn into harassment or intimidation. Which, this didn't.

HOSTIN: Well, the freedom caucus in particular, I think, sort of injected some of that right-wing extremism into our country's politics.

GRIFFIN: Well, I’ve talked about that. I've talked about that extensively, especially the direction they've gone in the Trump years is not something I recognize or would have put my name to. But I agree.

HOSTIN: It is surprising to me that you actually worked with Jim Jordan, who I think in many respects and Mark Meadows, sort of lit this flame we're seeing in our country.

GRIFFIN: I think they do hold a significant amount of responsibility. The thing is that years ago, their focus was on budgets, securing the border, bringing down the deficit. It was not this vast right-wing conspiracy.

GOLDBERG: You mean when Republicans were Republicans and had –

GRIFFIN: It was not this vast right-wing conspiracy.
