Whoopi Goldberg Boots Jeanine Pirro from The View: Watch!
As Donald Trump continues kissing Vladimir Putin"s ass before the international community, some of his erstwhile defenders have gone silent.
Some of his most ardent defenders, however, are speaking louder than ever. Fox News host Jeanine Pirro is certainly no exception.
In an appearance on The View, she accused Whoopi Goldberg of having "Trump Derangement Syndrome" and got booted from the table.
Jeanine Pirro has seemingly staked her entire career on Donald Trump being, not only not a traitor and Russian asset, but a good President.
Despite what many consider to be overwhelming evidence to the contrary, she argues before The View hosts that the investigation into Russian espionage and cyber crimes during the 2016 election season was made in bad faith.
Pirro, who ran against Hillary Clinton for Senate seat before dropping out to accept a nomination for New York Attorney General (a race which she lost), wrote a book, alleging a massive conspiracy against Trump.
Among other things, she seems to suggest that the Deep State, which the United States does not have, not only exists, but is working to undermine the President.
Things became heated when Pirro suggested that any crimes committed by undocumented immigrants justified the Trump Administration"s human rights violations against immigrants — including lawful asylum seekers.
A contentious debate became more heated when Pirro accused Whoopi of having "Trump Derangement Syndrome."
"I"m tired," Whoopi explains. "Of people starting conversations with "Mexicans are liars and rapists.""
We"ve seen so many interviews in which pleasant-faced people look into the camera and repeat those same racist, xenophobic lies.
"I"m tired of starting a conversation about this country — listen, I"m 62 years old," Whoopi says, changing gears.
"There have been a lot of people in office that I didn"t agree with," Whoopi says. "But I have never, ever seen anything like this."
Many people, including those who have lived much longer than Whoopi, struggle to recall a President whose behavior mirrored Donald Trump"s.
"I"ve never seen anybody whip up such hate. I"ve never seen anybody be so dismissive," Whoopi says.
Taking issue with the Trump Derangement Syndrome remark, Whoopi says: "And clearly you don"t watch this show. You don"t know that I suffer from that."
Whoopi explains that "what I suffer from is the inability to figure out how to fix this. That"s my issue."
The unpleasantness continues, and Whoopi says: "Say goodbye, goodbye. I"m done"
After the break, Pirro is nowhere in sight.
Whoopi Goldberg then addresses the audience, to explain why she was so passionate.
"So you saw me do something that I very rarely do, I very rarely lose my cool and I"m not proud of it," Whoopi says. "I don"t like it."
No one likes losing their cool. But it is very understandable that such an important issue makes people feel passionate.
"But I also don"t like being accused of being hysterical because that"s one of the things I try not to be on this show."
It is worth noting that Jeanine Pirro was seated beside longtime Republican Ana Navarro, who has become one of Donald Trump"s fiercest critics.
There"s a very special phenomenon when people say and do horrible things and then act as if those who are upset about them are being unreasonable.
When they do this, they portray themselves as the reasonable ones because they remained calm, suggesting that the other is unbalanced.
It is important for us to remember as we hear these arguments that it is normal — and even healthy — to become impassioned when speaking about human rights abuses, bigotry, and treason.
That"s not "Trump Derangement Syndrome." There"s no such thing.
Besides, Jeanine Pirro grew hot under the collar herself.

Delta Boots Passenger Off Flight for Using the Bathroom
In the wake of United Airlines dragging a paying passenger off its flight this month and creating the greatest PR disaster in aviation history, it’s important to remember something:
DELTA SUCKS, TOO!
We’re not just saying that. Scroll down for proof…
On April 18, a man named Kima Hamilton was on board a flight from Atlanta, Georgia to Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
The plane had taxied to the runway and passengers were told it was third in line to take off. So they expected to be airborne very soon.
But then 30 minutes went by and the plane remained on the runway.
Then, another 90 minutes passed.
Hamilton, who had previously been told to remain in his seat when he asked to use the bathroom, simply could not hold it any longer.
He got up. He peeed. And he returned to his seat.
And that’s when the trouble started.
“The pilot came on and said, ‘Ladies and gentlemen, I’m sorry for the inconvenience but we have to return to the gate and remove a passenger,’” Hamilton told Milwaukee’s Journal Sentinel, adding:
“It escalated to that point that fast.”
Here is a video shot by a fellow passenger on board the flight, as a Delta employee asked Hamilton to come with him… off the plane:
As you can see, Hamilton remains very calm throughout the confrontation.
He doesn’t understand how his actions could possibly constitute dismissal from the aircraft and he refuses to get up and leave, not when he:
- Paid for his seat.
- Had to return home to oversee a field trip for fourth, fifth and sixth graders.
In the above clip, you can clearly hear Hamilton apologize and explaining that he had an “emergency,” stating simply in the face of getting the boot:
“I’m not really clear on why I’m being asked to leave this plane. I purchased this ticket, I had an emergency. I had to pee.
“I tried to hold it the first time and you said I absolutely couldn’t and I’m being kicked off the plane?”
After succeeding in holding his ground against the first Delta employee, a second approached Hamilton and tried to reason with him.
You can watch this back and forth below:
Eventually, Hamilton complied and was removed from the airplane.
No force was used against him.
But Hamilton told local ABC affiliate WISN that FBI agents greeted him after he stepped off the plane.
FBI agents! Because he got up to use the bathroom while the plane was on the ground!
“[An agent] said he came to arrest me, but realized after our conversation, realized that some of the language that was associated with my name wasn’t accurate,” Hamilton told the station.
In the end, Hamilton was partially refunded for his Delta ticket, says he was forced to buy a ticket for a Southwest flight that was three times the price to get back to his family in Milwaukee.
Moreover, all the passengers were forced to leave the plane and then get back on it after this incident, causing them to be over an hour and a half late to their destination.
Said Delta in a statement:
Our flight crews are extensively trained to ensure the safety and security of all customers.
It is imperative that passengers comply with crew instructions during all phases of flight, especially at the critical points of takeoff and landing.
Sure.
Except, in this case, the plane wasn’t taking off or landing.
You could argue this is even more ridiculous than the notorious United Airlines incident; or at least that the reason for kicking Hamilton off the flight was more ridiculous.
At least United had overbooked its plane. It legitimately had to make room for its employees.
But this was an example of a passenger who just REALLY had to pee. And this was how Delta decided to treat him.
We wonder: did Hamilton’s fellow passengers feel more safe and more secure as a result?

The Bachelor Recap: Nick Viall Boots Three Wannabes
We were promised plenty of in-fighting this season, and The Bachelor spoilers have been alarmingly accurate in that regard so far.
The predictions of who Nick Viall takes to the final four have also held up to this point, but would there be a surprise in store this week?
Monday night on The Bachelor Season 21 Episode 6, tensions rose between some of the women as they jetted off to the Virgin Islands.
We know, it’s almost astonishing to believe.
Picking up where last week left off, Taylor tried to take one last parting shot at Corinne Olympios, after losing their two-on-one date.
“I want you to open your eyeballs,” Taylor tells Nick, who informs her this had nothing to do with Corinne, a.k.a. “I’m not into you bai.”
At the rose ceremony, he boots Josephine, Jaimi and Alexis, while the usual suspects and Whitney (who’s still around?) get to advance.
Soon it’s on to St. Thomas, where Kristina, Jasmine and the aforementioned Whitney have STILL yet to go on a one-on-one with Nick.
Until the first date goes to … Kristina!
As Jasmine melts down, Kristina takes the opportunity to tell Nick her life story, which began in Russia growing up without food as a kid.
“I remember eating lipstick,” she said at one point, recalling her days in an orphanage, and leaving behind her mother who is now dead.
As she put it, it was move to America when she got a little older, or stay back in her home country, where “it’s so easy to turn to prostitution.”
Kristina says someone told her back then, “If you stay in Russia, it will be black and white. If you move to America, it will be in color.”
What do you think of THAT, Mr. Putin?! COLORS, baby.
An American family who have three other adopted kids and four more biological kids took her in, and Nick was blown away by the story.
“When I’m with you, you bring color to my life,” says Nick, who had to cringe at using her story for a bad play on words, but still. Sweet.
Danielle L. and Whitney (above, pictured) then got a two-on-one date, while Jasmine further melted down and Corinne wasn’t far off.
“I’m going to sleep,” she says, most likely drunk.
When Nick gives her attention, Vanessa and Rachel get upset, and Jasmine decides to confront Nick, because “I’m so mad at him.”
“I like him so much but I want to choke him.”
That word choice feels even more odd when Jasmine brings up the choking threat again shortly thereafter, but acts like it’s hot or something.
“No girl’s ever choked you before?” she asks, causing Nick Viall – of all people – to say this is getting awkward and show her the exit.
Raven gets the group date rose, while Jasmine goes out in style (or something) and the Danielle and Whitney prepare for their 2-on-1 …
The pressure is on. As Danielle puts it:
“99 percent of the time only one person comes back,” she says … pretty sure it’s 100, unless that last one percent is when he axes both.
Maybe she had visions of her future.
“As much as I really want to give it to you, in my heart I feel like I can’t,” Nick says, before eliminating Whitney, to Danielle’s delight.
“I really feel like we’re on the same page right now,” Danielle tells Nick before he also sends her home (likely on a different page now).
Nick, while we give him a hard time over his sexual exploits, is clearly sad about dumping so many women in the span of like 25 minutes.
He ends the episode on a somber note.

Joey Boots Dies: Howard Stern Personality Was 49 Years Old
Bad news: 2016 has stolen yet another celebrity from us.
Joey Boots is dead.
Joey was known for his work on the Howard Stern Show — he was very popular as one of the Wack Packers, and for shouting “Baba Booey!” on the show — and he also had his own podcast.
But yesterday evening, Joey failed to show up to record the podcast.
The guys sent out his fellow Wack Packer, High Pitch Erik, to check on Joey at his New York apartment
When Joey didn’t answer the door, Erik asked a building manager to open it, and that’s when they found him, slumped over in a chair, dead.
What’s worse, an audibly upset Erik recounted the entire event right on the podcast.
You can listen to the audio below, but be warned, it’s hard to listen to:
In a shaky voice, Erik explains how Joey wouldn’t come to the door, and how when the building manager opened the door, they saw his body.
The other hosts don’t believe him at first, it sounds like they thought he was joking, but it’s obvious that Erik was genuinely freaked out.
The clip ends with Erik telling the guys to end the show.
When his body was found, it was cold, and there was no sign of any trauma.
It’s believed that Joey died from natural causes, but of course we won’t know more until he’s examined.
He did suffer from diabetes, but he was only 49 years old.
It really is a shocking loss.
After the news broke that he had died, Howard Stern tweeted a sweet-ish message in his memory.
“Tribute to the one and only Joey B in the new year,” he wrore. “He will be missed.”
Stern also added the fitting hashtag “BabaooeyHowardSternpenis.”
Memet Walker, the staffer for the Howard Stern show, shared a photo of himself with Joey, and his caption read “Joey Boots wasn’t a Wack Packer to me … he was a genuine friend.”
“I’m gonna miss you like hell, buddy.”
Other friends and coworkers echoed the same sentiment: it seems like Joey was well-loved by all those who knew him.
Our condolences go out to those mourning him.

Demi Lovato: Knocking Da Boots with Guilherme Vasconcelos?
Is Demi Lovato getting into the sexual ring with a new man?
According to Us Weekly, the singer has rebounded from her very long-time boyfriend, Wilmer Valderrama, by getting into an intense new relationship with Guilherme Vasconcelos.
An MMA fighter, Guilherme Vasconcelos goes by the nickname “Bomba.”
We’re not sure why.
But if it has anything to do with his prowess between the sheets, an insider says Lovato would now know all about it.
Both stars train at West Hollywood’s Unbreakable Performance Center.
That is where the following Instagram photo was snapped:
Having ended a six-year romance with Valderrama in June, the 23-year old singer isn’t looking for anything serious at the momet.
She “just having fun,” says an insider, adding: “Demi’s still looking to meet new guys.”
Last month, Lovato and Wilderrama stunned the celebrity gossip universe when they announced their split.
But they at least did so very amicably, via a joint statement that reads:
“After almost six loving and wonderful years together, we have decided to end our relationship.
“This was an incredibly difficult decision for both of us, but we have realized more than anything that we are better as friends. We will always be supportive of one another.”
Vasconcelos, meanwhile, is 30 years old.
He weighs 170 pounds, stands six feet tall and has eight wins against three losses in his professional career, fighting as a welterweight.
He last fought on June 24 and won via TKO.
Is he now taking Lovato down for a different sort of count? Behind closed bedroom doors?
We can’t say for certain.
But Demi is now single and ready to mingle in some capacity. Could anyone blame her if she rebounded for a bit with this hunk of an athlete?
