H2, Segment 2 - The View's Sunny Hostin called out for invoking privilege during son’s arrest.

What this episode covers

Transcript Charlie James: I don't ever want to hear the words "white privilege" come out of Sunny Hostin's mouth again over on The View. She has lost that privilege. White privilege—that's all she ever talks about: white privilege this, white privilege that. Well, there's another little privilege she tried to invoke over the weekend. You see, her son, Gabriel, decided he was going to go hang out at the railroad tracks. Yeah. Oh, don't worry, there were plenty of no-trespassing signs on the railroad tracks, but Gabriel decided that they did not apply to him. So he showed up—uh, the cops showed up, and they arrested him. Put him in handcuffs. And then who arrives at the scene? None other than Sunny Hostin herself, telling them that he has no criminal record, and and she even mentioned her legal background. "I'm a former federal prosecutor. My name is Sunny Hostin, and I'm one of the co-hosts of The View, and I'm a former federal prosecutor," she said, trying to get her son off the charges. They could have taken him to jail. I don't believe they did, but they should have. So now who's got the privilege, Sunny Hostin? I'll tell you what, these these people on the left are such unbelievable hypocrites. They truly are. They are the most hypocritical among us. And I mean, when you get there and you see, you know, we've got Zohran Mamdani today saying, "What happened—what occurred outside 26 Federal Plaza this morning was deeply disturbing." No, it wasn't. You caused that. You caused it. The hypocrisy of the people on the left is just deafening. "I'm Sunny Hostin, and I'm one of the co-hosts of The View, and I'm a former federal prosecutor." Bla, bla, bla. Let's go to Mike from Spartanburg. Mike, welcome. Mike: Hey, good afternoon. Charlie James: Yes, sir. Mike: Yeah, you were speaking earlier of, uh, the communist people controlling the, uh, the press. Charlie James: Yeah. Mike: Years ago, when Leonid Brezhnev was controlling the Soviet Union, he made the statement: "If we control the press, the police, and the military, we will never lose power." And that became known as the Brezhnev Doctrine. I can't—and anymore, I can't find any reference to it anywhere. Charlie James: Is that right? Yeah, of course. Mike: But it was—it was a—yeah, it was a commonly known statement that he made. Charlie James: Yeah. Mike: And if you look at Poland, they lost control of the press first, then the police, then the military. Charlie James: Well, the same thing with Maduro down in Venezuela when he took over. I mean, he took over the press first. Mike: Absolutely. Charlie James: That's the easy way to do it. And they don't even realize they're—well, they realize. I want to say they don't realize it, but they realize it. They know what they're doing. Mike: They know what they're doing. Yeah, absolutely. Charlie James: Yeah, absolutely. Mike: Oh yeah, they do. Anyway, let me let you go, buddy. Charlie James: I appreciate it, Mike. Thank you very much. They know exactly what's going on. They know what they're all about. But again, when you filter everything through the "Stop MAGA" lens—everything. When you—when you wonder why somebody is doing something, when you wonder why some people are saying something or not saying something, you run that through the "Stop MAGA" lens. Now, they can't do much about Trump, other than impeach him if they get back into the Senate or the House. They'll do that. But I don't think they'll have enough votes to be impeached in the House and then convicted in the Senate. But we'll see. We'll see. They know what's going on, and it's all about stopping MAGA. Let's go to Chunk—uh, Chuck in Mills River. How you doing, Chuck? Chuck: I feel like a chunk today. [laughs] What's up, Chuck? [laughs] I'm just sitting here eating a little venison chili on my lunch break and thought I'd call. Somebody needs to tell Sunny Hostin she's lucky they didn't throw the cuffs on her when she told the cops who she was. [laugh ...
