Time to cancel Whoopi Goldberg?

Furious viewers demand The View host is AXED as she’s forced to apologize for REPEATING her claim that Holocaust wasn’t about race – and was white-on-white violence

Whoopi Goldberg issued an apology on Tuesday following backlash for repeating her claim in a recent interview that the Holocaust wasn’t about race, as calls grew for ABC to fire her from The View. 

The Oscar-winning actress was suspended from The View in February for saying the Holocaust was not about race, but rather ‘white on white’ violence and ‘man’s inhumanity to man.’

Despite that controversy – and a subsequent apology – Goldberg readily repeated her controversial comments last week, when it was pointed out that the Nazis certainly believed the Holocaust was about race. 

Now, the pressure is on as some are calling for ABC to fire the co-host as rival networks hone in on the anti-Semitism scandal. NBC News aired a grave report on Goldberg’s latest scandal on December 26, heaping fresh embarrassment on View bosses.

It has led to Goldberg’s apology on Tuesday, as she states that it was ‘never my intention to appear as if I was doubling down on hurtful comments, especially after talking with and hearing people like rabbis and old and new friends weighing in.’

Biden’s unserious border ‘solution’ — mass amnesty for all illegal immigrants

Talk about using people as political pawns.

The White House complained Monday about Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s latest busload of migrants dropped off at the vice president’s doorstep on Christmas Eve. But the administration’s response was to use the 100 or so illegal immigrants as an argument for its mass-amnesty legislation, a bill so radical even Speaker Nancy Pelosi wouldn’t bring it up for a vote.

Abbott reported Monday that Texas over the past several months had bused nearly 16,000 illegal border-jumpers to the sanctuary cities of Washington, New York, Chicago and Philadelphia. This may sound like a lot but it’s really just two days’ worth of illegal-migrant “encounters” at the border.

The purpose of these voluntary, state-funded bus trips is twofold: First, they offer some relief to the small border communities groaning under the burden of President Biden’s mass illegal-immigrant releases, and, second, they force a reluctant national media to cover a border disaster they’d prefer no one notice.

Dismissing the bus trips as “political games,” the administration played its own political game. White House spokesman Abdullah Hasan said, “we are willing to work with anyone — Republican or Democrat alike — on real solutions, like the comprehensive immigration restructuring and border security measures President Biden sent to Congress on his first day in office.” This was a bill — called the US Citizenship Act — that even its Senate sponsor, Bob Menendez of New Jersey, acknowledged had no chance of passage even in a Democratic-controlled Congress.

This “solution” to the border crisis would have amnestied all illegal immigrants who arrived here at least three weeks before Biden’s inauguration, weakened enforcement, brought deported illegal immigrants back to the United States and doubled legal immigration. The only thing it would have “solved” is the existence of the border.

Even the administration’s more border-focused plans are unserious. While it was clear this spring that the Biden approach to the border crisis was to let everyone in, a new “Update on Southwest Border Security and Preparedness Ahead of Court-Ordered Lifting of Title 42” makes White House goals even more explicit. One of the centerpieces of the administration approach is to pre-legalize potential illegal aliens and have Mexican officials deliver them to US officers “legally,” thus ensuring they won’t end up in the border-arrest statistics.

Poll: Vast Majority Say Congress Should Investigate FBI Involvement in Social Media Censorship

Most likely voters believe Congress should investigate to see if the FBI was involved in social media censorship, a Rasmussen Reports survey released Monday found.

The survey found most, 46 percent, expressing an unfavorable view of the FBI, compared to half who have at least a “somewhat” favorable view. However, most Republicans and independents, 62 percent and 55 percent, respectively, have an unfavorable view. 

When asked if it is likely that the FBI actively “encouraged social media sites like Facebook and Twitter to ‘suppress, silence, or reduce the reach of certain political speech and speakers,’” 63 percent said it is likely, and of those, 43 percent said “very” likely. Even a majority of Democrats, 52 percent, agree that it is likely. 

Most, 63 percent overall, believe the U.S. Congress should “investigate whether the FBI was involved in censoring information on social media sites.” That includes 52 percent of Democrats, 75 percent of Republicans, and 63 percent of independents.

The kindness of strangers: Buffalo woman saves life of mentally-disabled man, 64, caught in historic blizzard by bringing him into her home and cutting off clothes and plastic bag straps that FROZE to his skin

• Sha’Kyra Aughtry found Joey White, 64, suffering from severe frostbite 
• The theater worker was found outside her Buffalo home during the blizzard
• White works at The North Park Theater and his sister believes he stayed there overnight on Thursday and then tried to walk back home when he got stuck
• He was ‘so frozen they had to cut his socks off, use a hairdryer to dry his pants that were frozen to his legs, and cut the straps of a Wegmans bag from his hands’
• A GoFundMe has been set up for the North Park employee of 40 years 

A mother of three is being called a ‘true angel’ in Buffalo after she saved the life of a mentally-disabled man who got caught in last week’s historic blizzard.

As the deadly storm slammed several parts of the country over the holiday weekend killing at least 64 people, Sha’Kyra Aughtry was at her home in Buffalo, New York, when she heard someone yelling for help on the morning of Christmas Eve. 

Aughtry and her boyfriend Trent found Joey ‘Joe’ White, a 64-year-old mentally-disabled, local movie theater worker outside in a snow bank and suffering from severe frostbite, according to her social media posts and the GoFundMe set up for White.  

White was covered in snow and was ‘so frozen they had to cut his socks off, use a hairdryer to dry his pants that were frozen to his legs, and cut the straps of a Wegmans bag from his hands.’

The couple used giant shearing clippers to cut a ring off his finger, which was swollen and turning black from apparent gangrene, it was reported.  White suffered terrible fourth-degree burns, and is receiving specialist treatment. But he would almost certainly have died had Aughtry not stepped in to help.
