The View disgusted with Justice Alito's 'right-wing humor': 'Why are you still on the court?'

The co-hosts of "The View" went after the case before the Supreme Court about a web designer who might be asked to make a same-sex wedding website against her, violating her personal expression. She hasn't been asked to do something like that nor has she denied service to anyone. She simply believes that her religious freedom to discriminate is being challenged by Colorado's anti-discrimination law.

"Here's what I want to know," Whoopi Goldberg began. "Whose religious freedom are we protecting? Because she's pooping on my religious freedom. The whole idea in the Constitution, about freedom from religious beliefs, is that you don't have to subscribe to your neighbor's beliefs. That's the beauty of it."

'It's become a hellscape': The View debates dumping Twitter over Elon Musk's mismanagement

Alyssa Milano was once a big fan of Elon Musk and a proud Tesla owner, but that has changed. Speaking to the co-hosts of "The View" on Tuesday, she explained why Musk wasn't who she thought he was.

"For me, speaking of #MeToo, when he was accused of sexual misconduct and paid out $250,000 to this person, I decided — I can't live in that hypocrisy of that, driving that car, you know, when that happened," she said. "I'm kind of, I'm so annoyed with all of these billionaires, especially with Elon Musk. You buy Twitter to destroy it for $44 billion. Imagine if he donated that money to UNICEF. He would change the world. There would be no hunger!"

Ex-Trump aide tells The View she doubts Kevin McCarthy will make it to Speaker

Former Donald Trump aide Alyssa Farrah Griffin doesn't think that Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) is going to make it to the top spot in the House, she told her colleagues on "The View" Tuesday.

Addressing McCarthy's threats to remove Democrats he doesn't like from congressional committees, Griffin explained that even if he gets elected as the Speaker, he still has no unilateral power to remove someone from a committee, it has to be a full vote from the House. There might not be enough people willing to make that move given the retribution and backlash it could cause them.

Watch: Ex-Trump aide says his 2024 announcement this early is 'a sign of weakness'

Former White House aide Alyssa Farah Griffin told her colleagues at "The View" that Donald Trump announcing his presidential bid for 2024 so early is "a sign of weakness."

"The [Republican] party to me, quickly I'll just say one thing about this, they're damned if they do and don't," Joy Behar explained. "They need Trump to get the base and they're going to lose because of that, because it's not a big enough electorate."

We're not 'monkey see monkey do': Whoopi bashes 'ignorant' Lindsey Graham for assuming Black candidates make GOP not racist

The co-hosts of "The View" were furious with Sen. Lindsey Graham after he claimed that the Republican Party isn't racist because they have a candidate like Herschel Walker.

"They're beating our guys up, but what is it about this guy?" said Graham. "He changes the entire narrative of the left. We're a party of racists. The Republican Party is racist. What happens when the Republican Party elects and nominates Herschel Walker, an African American, Black Heisman Trophy winner, right? Olympian. It destroys the whole narrative."
