Joy Behar and Justin Trudeau get a pass for blackface. Can you imagine if someone with the last name Trump or DeSantis did something like this? I need a democrat to explain to me the two tier social justice system and why it’s acceptable. I’m just so confused why people get treated so differently based off their political party, but then they tell me people are treated differently because of race and gender. Can you imagine the reaction if a Republican did something like this? Oh wait the last half of the article is used to take a few jabs at Republicans

Direct Quotes:

Joy Behar and ABC were silent Thursday after an old photo resurfaced of "The View" co-host using makeup to darken her skin for a Halloween costume

The Wrap tweeted the three-year-old segment of Behar discussing a resurgence of curly hair.

Critics were quick to point out that NBC cut ties with host Megyn Kelly last year after she created a furor by suggesting that it was OK for white people to wear blackface on Halloween.

This week, Virginia's governor and attorney general are being criticized for their use of blackface in the 1980s. Florida Secretary of State Michael Ertel resigned last month after a photo surfaced showing him wearing blackface as part of a "Hurricane Katrina victim" costume.

Other white celebrities who have been called out for using blackface include Julianne Hough, who in 2012 dressed as characters from Netflix's "Orange Is the New Black," and "Real Housewives of New York" star LuAnn De Lesseps, who dressed as Diana Ross for Halloween in 2017.

The Time tries to cover for Hillary Clinton boasting about the health benefits and her collection of hot sauces. If that is true why not say that in the interview?

Direct Quotes: In a radio interview Monday morning, Hillary Clinton was asked to name something she carries with her everywhere she goes. “Hot sauce,” she answered. “Yeah.” The Clinton campaign has confirmed to TIME the type and brand of hot sauce now toted by the Democratic front runner for the presidential nomination: Ninja Squirrel, a Sriracha from the in-house brand of Texas-based Whole Foods Market. “And we continue to carry chili flakes and jalapeños around,” says Clinton campaign spokesperson Nick Merrill.
