Dear Republican readers, let’s talk about a recent incident showcasing liberal double standards. Whoopi Goldberg, once a respected comedian, now co-hosts the ABC talk show “The View.” When she recently shared a joke made by former Vice President Mike Pence, it didn’t sit well with her.
Pence joked that Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg’s two-month “maternity leave” during the airline crisis caused “everyone else [to get] postpartum depression.”
The audience found it amusing, but Goldberg rebuked them, asserting that the joke wasn’t funny when conservatives like Tucker Carlson and Lauren Boebert told it either.
This took place at the annual Gridiron Club Dinner in Washington, a gathering of politicians and journalists. Pence, rumored to be eyeing the Republican presidential nomination, is also facing requests to testify against former President Donald Trump.
Trump has filed a motion in federal court to prevent Pence from testifying before a grand jury, claiming the information is privileged. Pence is also resisting the subpoena, citing his role as president of the Senate. Legal experts suggest Trump might have caught a break in the Georgia election tampering investigation.
In conclusion, the left’s hypocrisy is evident when Goldberg takes offense at a joke, while the liberal media attempts to vilify Pence.
