The View Stays Silent on Bondi's Ouster, Returns Monday

0:00It's April 4th. Welcome in. This is Entertainment and Celebrity News, where pop culture meets AI. I'm Cory with the story. President Trump just shook up his cabinet by ousting Attorney General Pam Bondi after a year in the job. Fans of the view tuned in expecting the co-host to tear into the news, but they stayed silent on the big shakeup. Turns out the Thursday weekend view episode with guest Whitney Cummings was filmed Wednesday before the announcement dropped. Friday brought a repeat show anyway, as the program heads into its week-long Easter break. Viewers were buzzing online, wondering why the outspoken panel skips such primed debate fodder. Earlier that morning, guest Don Lemon did drop Bondi's name in a joke about his phone still being with the Justice Department. Trump praised Bondi as a patriot heading to a private sector gig soon, with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche stepping in as acting AG. Meanwhile, co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin wraps up her two-month maternity leave after welcoming baby Justin.

1:01The view returns Monday, April 13, so expect the full crew, including Griffin to finally unpack Bondi's exit in all the fallout.
