Rosie O'Donnell claims ABC will cancel 'The View' to appease 'orange messiah' Trump
ABC has reportedly begun to scrutinize "The View" as one of the most prominent shows on television known for far-left rhetoric. The Daily Beast reported about an apparent rift between the hosts of the show and the top brass at the company, going all the way up to Disney CEO Bob Iger, concerning a desire for the hosts to cool off the politics.
O'Donnell, one of Trump's most outspoken critics, wrote in a on TikTok, "You know what I just read today? ABC is 'reviewing the liberal bias' on The View. The VIEW. The show with five women speaking the own opinions - That's the threat now. They say they're not canceling it— they're just 'reviewing the bias.' Which is code for - we're gonna cancel it we're just trying to soften you up first."
"Apparently, the truth is dangerous now," she continued. "They say they want 'balance.' But what they mean is silence. Silence anything that doesn't praise the orange messiah and his golden escalator of lies."
"This isn't about bias - This is about obedience. This is about removing any program that doesn't align with Trumpism — soft fascism in full lashes with commercial breaks," she said, before appearing to paraphrase a famous poem about the Holocaust, "First they came for the journalists Then the educators Then the librarians Now, it's Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg. It would be funny if it weren't so terrifying."
"We are in a dictatorship with good lighting," O'Donnell added. "I used to think the First Amendment meant something. I used to think you couldn't just erase a voice because it made you uncomfortable."
O'Donnell went on to conclude that rather than getting quieter, women should "speak louder" and "take up space."
"We stand together and say what is true, even when it shakes the walls. Because the most dangerous sound in the world is a woman who knows what she's talking about— and refuses to stop," she wrote.
Fox News Digital reached out to "The View" and ABC for comment.
"Rosie O'Donnell is an irrelevant loser with too much time on her hands, whining about a failing talk show while everyday Americans are working hard," White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers wrote to Fox News Digital. "We can all thank Rosie O'Donnell for helping President Trump make America great again by self-deporting to Ireland."
In July, Rogers called out "The Views" ratings and suggested it could be canceled after co-host Joy Behar went on an anti-Trump rant.
"Joy Behar is an irrelevant loser suffering from a severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome. It's no surprise that 'The View's ratings hit an all-time low last year. She should self-reflect on her own jealousy of President Trump's historic popularity before her show is the next to be pulled off-air," Rogers said at the time.
CBS' cancellation of "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" last month started a flurry of speculation that networks are shutting down left-wing content to placate the Trump administration.
The cancellation followed the network and its parent company's settlement with Trump after he sued both for "election interference" over a "60 Minutes" interview edit of his 2024 opponent, then-Vice President Kamala Harris.

Trump's pick for BLS suggested suspending monthly jobs report
(Bloomberg) — EJ Antoni, President Donald Trump's pick to lead the Bureau of Labor Statistics, has suggested suspending the agency's monthly jobs reports and publishing only quarterly numbers until issues with data collection are corrected. In an interview with Fox Business before Trump nominated him on Monday, Antoni said businesses can't plan and the Federal Reserve can't conduct monetary policy when the monthly report is unreliable and frequently overstated and thus misleading. 'Until it is corrected, the BLS should suspend issuing the monthly job reports but keep publishing the more accurate, though less timely, quarterly data,' he said, according to Fox Business. 'Major decision-makers from Wall Street to DC rely on these numbers, and a lack of confidence in the data has far-reaching consequences.' The jobs report is one of the so-called Principal Federal Economic Indicators, which Congress requires, by law, to be published according to a prescribed date on a calendar that statistical agencies submit to the White House a year in advance. William Beach, who was BLS chief during Trump's first term, said that those reports can be held up if there was evidence of malfeasance or criminal undermining, but a commissioner can't prevent its publication. 'The commissioner has very few powers to change the context of a report or suspend a report,' Beach said. 'The president could probably hold it up under his executive powers, but there's certainly nothing the commissioner could do.' Beach did note, however, that the commissioner can authorize the suspension of some parts of reports under certain circumstances. For example, in the early months of the pandemic when many businesses were closed, Beach had BLS drop publication of wholesale price data on industrial diamonds. If confirmed by the Senate, Antoni would succeed Erika McEntarfer, whom Trump abruptly fired Aug. 1 after a BLS report showed weak job growth in July and substantial downward revisions to the prior two months. Trump accused her, without evidence, of manipulating the numbers for political purposes, while noting that she was appointed by former President Joe Biden. Michael Horrigan, who spent over a decade at BLS overseeing its employment and inflation programs, said the implications of pausing the monthly jobs report would be 'very concerning,' and impact Wall Street and public trust in the agency. It would also have a ripple effect on other series within the jobs report, like data on state and local employment and wages, he said. 'A much simpler solution to eliminate the impact of revisions is to delay the publication of a given month until the full sample has been delivered and eliminate the noise of revisions,' Horrigan said.
