Breaking: Sunny Hostin And Joy Behar Do Rhetorical Gymnastics To Excuse Biden Family Pardons….See More

Sunny Hostin and Joy Behar, cohosts of ABC News’ “The View,” opened Wednesday’s broadcast of the midday talk show by defending former President Joe Biden’s 11th-hour pardons for several of his family members.

Hostin and Behar, both of whom have repeatedly accused President Donald Trump of weaponizing the Justice Department, made excuse after excuse for the blanket pardons Biden issued just moments prior to leaving the White House for the final time.

Hostin began the conversation by complaining about Trump’s decision to pardon nearly all of those who’d been charged in relation to January 6, claiming that it was out of bounds for him to pardon people who were guilty of “violence toward law enforcement.”

As Newsbusters’ Nick Fondacaro noted, Hostin defended Black Lives Matter protesters despite the damage they did and lobbied hard for Vice President Kamala Harris even though she’d supported a progressive non-profit that bailed out violent rioters in 2020.
