On Wednesday morning, the hosts of "The View" expressed their disapproval over 11 Democrats missing the impeachment procedural vote concerning Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. Moderator Whoopi Goldberg issued a stern warning, stating that Democrats cannot repeat this behavior in the future. Goldberg criticized the excuses provided by absent Democrats, such as traffic, health issues, and conflicting events.
After viewing footage of enraged Democrats present at the hearing, Goldberg and her fellow hosts wanted to "pile on" and discuss the issue further. Goldberg emphasized the importance of showing up to work, stating that the newly elected Democrats should leave their homes earlier to avoid such issues. She added that this was the last time Democrats could get away with missing such a vote, as the consequences could quickly lead to their removal from power.
Alyssa Farah Griffin echoed these sentiments, calling the absences "shameful" and arguing that it reinforced negative stereotypes about Washington D.C. Goldberg urged Democrats to make this the last time they engage in such behavior, urging them to "do not do this" and set a proper tone for their new role.
