„The View“ co-hosts defended free speech and criticized Trump administration tactics while addressing Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension, avoiding criticism of ABC.
„The View“ co-hosts railed against President Donald Trump’s administration on Monday while addressing late-night host Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension, and avoided criticizing their mutual employer, ABC.
Co-host Sunny Hostin cited former Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. while weighing in on the First Amendment.
„We must protect the freedom to express the thought we hate“, she said, quoting Holmes. „So Justice [Sonia] Sotomayor said last week that ‘every time I listen to a lawyer-trained representative saying we should criminalize free speech in some way, I think to myself that law school failed.’ Well, my law school, Notre Dame, didn’t fail. I know very well what the freedom of speech means. I know all of you know very much what the freedom of speech means and the President of the United States should know what freedom of speech means.“
Kimmel’s show was pulled by Disney after the liberal late-night host suggested Charlie Kirk’s alleged shooter was part of the „MAGA gang.
