The View's Surprising Shift on Supreme Court: Applauding Abortion Pill Ruling

The co-hosts of "The View," who have been critical of the Supreme Court in the past, expressed rare praise for the court's unanimous ruling against a challenge to the FDA's approval of the abortion pill.
The hosts of the popular talk show "The View" offered a surprising reaction to the Supreme Court's recent ruling on the abortion pill. Despite previously casting aspersions on the court's impartiality, they commended the unanimous decision that dismissed a challenge to the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) regulatory approval process for mifepristone.
Joy Behar, a co-host, expressed relief, saying, "It's nice to hear good news about the Supreme Court for a change." Co-host Sunny Hostin confessed that the ruling restored some of her faith in the court, acknowledging that the justices followed "black-letter law" by dismissing the case due to lack of standing.
Hostin specifically praised Justices Kavanaugh and Thomas for their adherence to legal principles. However, she expressed concern that abortion rights remained subject to state laws, which could vary significantly. Co-host Sara Haines emphasized the importance of having faith in the judicial process and the legal reasoning behind Supreme Court decisions.
Co-hosts Ana Navarro and Behar remained skeptical, suggesting that future plaintiffs with standing could potentially challenge the FDA's abortion pill approval. Navarro voiced her distrust of the court, expressing concern that the conservative justices would rule differently if a qualified plaintiff brought a similar case.
Behar echoed Navarro's sentiments, acknowledging that she did not trust the courts or the "extreme religious right" who, she believes, seek to limit women's rights and impose their values on society.
Despite their praise for the ruling, "The View" hosts have previously been highly critical of the Supreme Court, accusing it of partisanship and bias. Just two days before the abortion pill ruling, Behar defended the leaked recordings of Justice Alito and his wife, arguing that they needed to be "exposed" for their conservative views.
Hostin has also voiced her "disappointment" with the court's perceived partisan behavior in the past. This latest shift in tone from the hosts of "The View" highlights the complex and evolving nature of the public's perception of the Supreme Court.
The court's abortion pill ruling is a reminder that its decisions can have far-reaching implications for individual rights and the American way of life. The reactions to the ruling from both the public and the media underscore the ongoing debates and discussions surrounding the role of the Supreme Court in American society.
While the hosts of "The View" have been vocal in their criticisms of the Supreme Court, their recent praise for the abortion pill ruling suggests that the court's decisions can transcend political divides and garner support from unexpected corners.
As the Supreme Court continues to navigate the complex legal and social issues of our time, it remains to be seen how its decisions will shape the future of American jurisprudence and the ongoing debates surrounding the court's legitimacy and impartiality.
