Mark Levin attacks Sunny Hostin for supporting reparations even though "her ancestors were slaveholders"

MARK LEVIN (HOST): Sunny Hostin, if that is her name. Sunny Hostin is one of the -- is one of the people on The View. She's a yenta and worse. She's a race-baiter. She embraces CRT, DEI, ESG, MSG, embraces all of it. And one of the worst, in my view, race-baiters in media. Second maybe to Joy Reid, but it's very close. Mister producer, do you know if any of your ancestors ever owned slaves? I went back. I did that whole review, not on PBS. I wasn't invited, but with Ancestry, mine never owned slaves. In fact, if you go back far enough, they were slaves, you know, in the Palestinian territories.
Nonetheless, it turns out her ancestors were slaveholders, as the race-baiters say, slavers. So, she is -- she's the offspring of slavers.
Now she was shocked, of course. And she spent her entire career as a self-righteous spokesperson against all this, and then she finds out it's in her blood. And to prove that, she's still a supporter of reparations. Now, how does that work, mister producer? Is she gonna pay herself some money? It seems to me if you can go back and find out that your ancestors were slaveholders, then you pay the reparations. You pay them. See, it turns out America that not just -- not just, you know, some people from the founding of our nation were slaveholders, but there were slaveholders all over the world.
And when you get more and more immigrants into our country, you'll find out slavery was rampant in the continent of Africa. Slavery was rampant in Europe, including Spain and Portugal, so forth and so on. Slavery was rampant among Muslims and Arabs, and in many places, still is in the Middle East. Slavery is rampant in Southeast Asia. And now slavery is rampant on our southern border, thanks to the Democrats and Joe Biden and the rest of them. Now Sunny Hostin, if that is her name, seems to me that she should put up or shut up.
You know, I still believe in reparations -- oh, good for you. And what are you gonna do about it? You're very wealthy. You live in a bigger state. Your husband makes a ton. You make a ton. You know? But it turns out that you have slaveowner blood. That's kinda chilling, but a lot of people do, who are unaware of it. That's the point. You don't trash an entire group of people as a result of it, she does. But she's horrified now. And we're horrified about you. What do you think of that?
