Whoopi Goldberg says ‘The View’ can ‘feel like hell,’ addresses Epstein list rumors

Most jobs are not delivered with a media platform that leads to allegations according to which you are on the list of customers of the sex offender condemned Jeffrey Epstein (who, according to the Ministry of Justice, does not really exist) – but this is one of the many reasons why Whoopi Goldberg considers his concert as a moderator of The view “Can feel like hell” sometimes.

The 69-year-old Oscar-winning actress started the episode of Tuesday morning taking a reception of the extra-long audience, who saw the crowd of the studio getting up for a series of applause for Goldberg and the cohostes Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, Sara Haines and Alyssa Farah Griffin.

“Let us say to you: thank you for that, because sometimes this concert can look like hell,” said Goldberg. “And sometimes you feel like people are just angry with you all the time, so to get a welcome like this this morning, we really appreciate it.”

Goldberg then presented a hot topic on “some of the most loyal Maga” who “feel betrayed at the moment on a promise that administration officials have made on several occasions”, referring to the alleged list of Epstein customers that the prosecutor general of the United States, Pam Bondi, was in his possession, sitting on his office.

“There is nothing sitting on the desk of anyone,” said Goldberg, before Behar remembers the reason why she thinks that conservative politicians relied on the idea that Epstein’s list existed in the first place.

“What is interesting in this case for me, first of all, there is no list,” observed Behar. “What disturbs his Maga crowd is not the prices that will increase prices on their food, is not the possibility that you are going to lose Medicaid, so you will all take care of your mothers and fathers who have dementia or everything that disturbs them.

She turned to Goldberg, who joked the public laughing: “Yes, we are on the list. We are on this list”, before clarifying: “No, no, no! You laugh, but we were placed on this list.”

Hostin, a former federal prosecutor, jumped to clarify that, according to online detractors, Goldberg and Behar were “allegedly on the list”, while Griffin added that “Internet is convinced” of false information.

Griffin, who previously worked for Donald Trump at the White House before resigning and subsequently against the President, said that she felt that politicians could “look for things that affirm your worst instincts” and that those who really deserve the Republicans are often not celebrity personalities.

“Isn’t that joy and Whoopi?” Asked Hostin. “Fortunately, it’s not joy and Whoopi,” replied Griffin.

She continued: “I was inside the government, I was much more partisan before being inside, and you suddenly see facts that are not in black and white. They are not blue and red, they are not democratic and republicans, they are often just ugly, Sales and which, often, you cannot even make public because of the dangers associated with this.”

Goldberg finished the segment by asking: “When it is enough? When[thepeopleareitasitis?”Enquest.

“Will it take farmers to get up and go” Ghost Star asked.
