Summary

'The View' co-hosts weigh in as President Trump tightens his grip on the GOP following Senator Bill Cassidy’s primary loss, after backing a challenger in what many see as political payback for Cassidy’s impeachment vote after Jan. 6. The panel also reacts to reports that Trump is creating a $1.776 billion “Truth & Justice Commission” aimed at compensating individuals alleging government “weaponization,” in exchange for dropping his ongoing lawsuit against the IRS. Hayden Panettiere joins the show to open up about her life and healing in her new memoir, 'This Is Me'. She reflects on growing up in the spotlight, her complicated relationship with her mother, and why now felt like the right time to share her story. Learn more about your ad choices.
