Whoopi tell that to victims of abuse that can’t leave. Believe it or not, some people can’t afford to leave their job. Don’t defend horrible monsters, Mam!
Whoopi has had money for too long. She is extremely out of touch. Those arent just jobs people leave. Those are careers. And speaking up can END a career. Emotional abuse and intimidation shouldnt be allowed anywhere but especially not in public office!
I think she was gonna say they should grow a pair and tell her you can't talk to me like this . Sometimes you have to stand up for yourself I had a boss like that and I finally spoke up and he stopped. And it's funny because I quit a few months later and he was begging me to come back😂😂 . When all the time he berated me for my work and how I was never gonna get better . But he wanted me to come back once I left .
I disagree with Whoopi here. Being verbally abused is not and should not be “part of how we grew up” and totally not the responsibility of the employee to “move out” if they don’t like it. No. The verbally abusive person should be he one who is fired for it. I don’t understand Whoopi here at all.
Right. That’s trauma and Stockholm syndrome if you choose to stay in it just because. Also, it perpetuates the stereotype about black people being savages and “eat their young” type narrative. I can understand she grew up like that, I cannot excuse that behavior from a grown woman. Lastly, I feel like she’s being let down easily because she’s black, if she were a white man or woman we would be having a completely different conversation.
I’m glad Alyssa, sunny and Ana all called this behaviour out, there was no hypocrisy, bad behaviour is bad behaviour but whoopi come on… you’re turning yourself into pretzels trying to give her any excuse. I wish sometimes they would say a member of government has done xyz and not mention their party/gender/race etc and give their opinions then at the end explain who the person actually is cause that would truly filter out any hypocrisy 😊
Absolutely agree, if this person was a republican Whoopi would not make any excuses and would actually condemned them of they behavior, call a spade a spade and I'm a black Democrat.
The hypocrisy is crazy!!! If this was a Republican, Whoopi would call them out. Whoopi will defend people she likes NO MATTER what they do. ABUSE IS NEVER OK!!!
In my opinion; This GOP Mess, is just another ploy not to raise the dept ceiling, that's coming up for a vote! Hello? People need to Wake up! Or should I say the spending bill. The People need this fixed. before the economy crashes, and this is what they want!
Whoopie, no! People deserve respect and if the allegations are true Rep. Lee should reflect on how she is behaving in a power dynamic and adjust herself for the better. Everyone should be treated with respect. Period. I don't care who she is or thinks she is to treat her staff in such a demeaning way.
@@patjenkins1308 probably not but I wouldn’t put it past her or sunny to invoke that somewhere. No ones even allowed to remotely criticize Kamala Harris without being told it’s bc she’s a black woman.
First I'm an African American male and I find this congresswoman's behavior terribly repugnant. I also used to work on Capital Hill and I fully know about the toxic, vicious and fearful work culture. I can't count how many, many, many arrogant members of congress from all backgrounds who has come across as arrogant and condescending to their staff and other employees outside of the media . This congresswomen has a well rumored history of verbal abuse and its more of a shame, that she is from a couple of marginalized groups (women, African American) and definitely should know better. I believe most members of congress should attend mandatory Hostile Work Environment and No Fear Act training but as for her, she needs immediate counseling and should take some time off and remember where she comes from.
@@Smarterthanyew that is pure BS. If a parent repeatedly tells a child they are worthless or a moron, its just verbally abusive, its coming from bad parenting
SHE SURE DOES!!! Whoopi is rude and talks to people crazy herself. Normalizing abuse is what many OLD people like Whoopi tend to do. ABUSE IS NEVER OK!!!!
Whoopi, get a Clue, come on!! Defending behavior not acceptable at WORK. WHOOPI, she is @ Work not at a Barbque. Whoopi has been Rich for so long now, she is completely disconnected from the rest of us.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Whoopi is RIDICULOUS and rude herself! She's forgotten the many years she was out of work before Barbara Walter's gave her this View job. ABUSE IS NEVER OK!!!!!
In my opinion; This GOP Mess, is just another ploy not to raise the dept ceiling, that's coming up for a vote! Hello? People need to Wake up! Or should I say the spending bill. The People need this fixed. before the economy crashes, and this is what they want!
I think Whoopi is a woman of a certain age justifying this kind of treatment as a boss or superior in a position of power and authority. It’s kinda ridiculous. Telling them to grow a pair?? Wow.
Abuse comes in many forms - and no one should be defended from committing abuse against others. “That’s how we grew up” is exactly how that toxic cycle repeats itself.
I agree 100% with Anna. It is verbal abuse. Whoopi what you said is victim blaming. Putting the responsibility on them. I once interviewed a counsellor who was crying in the interview because she was getting bullied at her current job by her her boss. I didnt blame the counsellor. My best friend got bullied at her job by a verbally abusive boss. Even after she left she still had panic attacks driving past her old work. They can leave but the damage has been done and they carry that with them. So please stop putting the responsibility on them. It lies solely with this abusive person, regardless of race or gender.
Just going to go ahead and say it…. If this were a republican congressperson, especially if they were a white male, Whoopi would have a completely different take….
The show has the worst double standards imaginable. They constantly allow anyone who is a Democrat to act in ways that they would be shouting about if it was a Republican. The worst type of people don't call out bad behavior. How do the hosts get away with this echo chamber, one sided approach to political commentary
This is not professional conduct period. It’s not really a good way to get the best out of employees either. Now I would say that Whoopi Goldberg grew up in a different time when getting “cussed out” was how many issues were resolved. I’m ten years younger than Ms. Goldberg and I have seen my share of this type of behavior, but it’s not the best way to speak to people and particularly employees.
Whoopi needs to stop. There is no place where you should be cursing anyone out in the workplace. People shouldn't have to leave she should be censured.
sometimes ‘open secrets’ need to be exposed to the public so they could be primaried or not allowed to move on to an even more powerful position to verbally abuse even more prople
My God! Look at the hoops Whoopi is jumping through to let the black Democrat off the hook. Basically saying it’s the staff’s fault for not pushing back when their boss yells at at belittles them. Incredible!
Naw, Ya’ll want noise to try to win that election down there….you’re probably still talking about the next mayor of Houston. 😂, And Ana brought up a good point: they don’t even have a speaker in the House of Representatives to go and try to censure /reprimand her, and she’s already one of the most entrenched members of congress. Anyway, sounds like folks in Houston better get used to getting cussed out when they don’t get it done. 👏
Jackson Lee is well known for her outbursts in Houston. She has her supporters and very vocal detractors. She should at the very least apologize and take and pass an anger management course.
Its important to have thick skin in politics, but it is also important to behave with respect and not belittle or curse out other human beings. I know 100% without a doubt that if I cursed at people on my team where I work like this, I would be fired within days. Politicians should be held to the highest standard if they want to represent the people, not behave like the lowest common denominator.
W. Goldberg mentions that if you are being harassed by your employer you should leave, you shouldn’t have to put up with it. Well, some people want to serve their communities and not everyone has the luxury of resigning their job and finding a job right away.
@@RockinLoud360Sheila Jackson Lee stood in front of America, & lied about the AR-15. She said it was as heavy as 5 big moving boxes. The average AR-15 weighs approx 5 pounds. She said it took a 50 Calibur bullet. That 50 cal projectile is 8 times larger, & the 50 cal bolt action rifle weighs approx 38 pounds. So she's a liar.
oh please, if this a rep NOTHING WOULD HAPPEN, republicvnts have no ethics, and no leg to stand on after supporting 45 when the tape that came out about how he talks about women, so cry me a river
Usually I agree with Whoopi but I can’t This time… she is a congresswomen and there is a certain decorum and professionalism you should keep, vote her azz out..
Whoopi is telling us that she is okay with a boss speaking to individuals in this manner. It does not matter if you was raised in that manner, its abusive and no one, especially in government should talk to any employee in that way.
People who think bosses can get away with abuse because they're the boss, disgust me. We're all trying to work and we should all ba treated with dignity and respect
Really, Whoopi? You’re saying that this happens and if you don’t like it leave? I’m a Democrat, but this is a double standard. Imagine if a Republican would’ve have the same story, would you handle it differently? I’m sure you would.
If this treatment & abuse was coming from a republican, this would be a VERY DIFFERENT conversation by these women. Truly despicable! Disgusting! Why should the abused employee have to leave their hard earned job because their boss abused them???? Where’s the accountability?????
I'm a marine. I would have told the congresswoman, "You must be Mrs. Notrodomes, how come you know so much about me !!" Lol😂😅😂😅 Or as a black person, I would have said, "I know your momma is, but what am I ??"😅😂😅😂😅
So does that logic apply when a male boss mistreats a female on the job? What about that contractor who cursed out his female worker. No one told her to man up and that it was normal. But hey whatever ?!?!
I don't think respect for subordinates should be expected and needs to be called out. Wrong behavior is wrong regardless of color. Period. How many times have someone on the right try to justify wrong behavior even criminality just because the person is team "R". Disgusting!
As someone who lives in her district I see nothing but hookers, drug dealers, trash and carelessness on the environment, illegal drag racers killing innocent families, and non stop construction that doesn’t fix problems. I’ve tried to give her the benefit of the doubt since she’s a strong female black leader and she’s always disappointed. Houston VOTE HER OUT.
That's exactly what I was thinking lol. Whoopi is the scary boss. Just like Ellen DeGeneres lol comedians are some of the angriest and pissiest people you'll ever meet
I worked on a project where I volunteered my services to honor one of her mentors in Texas. I had get her on camera (making comments ) for a ceremony. She was the most arrogant condescending person I have ever worked with. She actually tried to the director the interview telling us when to record and stop recording. She was very intimidating. I saw her terrible behavior first hand.
OK Whoopi, YOU ARE WRONG defending this woman who verbally abuses her staff. I don't respect you defending her and turning it on her staff. WRONG ! That woman needs to step away and give that job to someone else.
Whoopi was not defending the congresswoman. Whoopi was trying to empower victims to know their worth and LEAVE toxic situations. She wasn't saying "grow a pair" and stay put. She was saying to have the courage to LEAVE. This was also within the context of having access to other job options (based on Alyssa's point about there being more lucrative jobs on K Street in DC).
@@writersblock26 I don't think these action-items are mutually exclusive. One can both leave a hostile work environment and hold the employer accountable for creating such an environment. Happens in EEOC cases all the time. But rather than waiting for the legal route to play out, it's best for employees to feel empowered to leave and find psychological safety.
Why they keep saying allegedly her? That is her it’s been confirmed is her. I don’t understand why the view act like they are a PR firm for the Democrats.
She is not worthy of any position of leadership, and she should resign and abstain from holding any position in government. Leadership requires a certain degree of character, and she does not have any.
The way some men speak to their staff and are called tough bosses. A woman does the same and she's a dragon. Most comments here just don't like black women having power.
Whoopie G. misses the point as usual. She refuses to address the person who is causing the problem. Goldberg prefers to put the onus back onto the workers. I wonder why?
This is despicable. Also from Whoppie…if the environment is not right then you should leave it?!?! Wtf?!?! Maybe the representative should pack her bags and leave instead for her vile conduct. You can not count on any objectivity from this panel and I find it despicable!
I worked for a company that was as toxic as Rep. Lee's. I couldn't leave until I fulfilled my one-year employment agreement, otherwise I would have lost the ability to work in the same industry in other markets, and the remainder of my benefits wouldn't have been paid out. This was a private sector job where I was forced to sign this agreement as a condition of employment. Whereas the public sector may not have these kind of employment agreements, but they definitely have that same amount of power and will conspire with other offices to put you on the "do not hire" list.
Whoopi tell that to victims of abuse that can’t leave. Believe it or not, some people can’t afford to leave their job. Don’t defend horrible monsters, Mam!
This!!!!!
Right here!!!!! Whoopi is constantly defending abusive behavior from rich people she likes. ABUSE IS NEVER OK!!!!!!!
What she’s saying is that she doesn’t trust a lot of her staff - because congress is so reliable
I’m in agreement.
She sounds like people that say if someone is being sexually harassed at work, they should just quit and find another job. She really is a disgrace.
Whoopi has had money for too long. She is extremely out of touch.
Those arent just jobs people leave. Those are careers. And speaking up can END a career.
Emotional abuse and intimidation shouldnt be allowed anywhere but especially not in public office!
I agree , being disrespected on the job is not OK
Exactly what I was thinking. Took the words right out of my mouth lol
Someone needs to get honest about victims of 'bullying'. They won't be bullied if they grow a backbone and grow up.
Whoopi has me wondering if she talks to her staff crazy. Why else would she defend this mess?
Yes she does. Whoopi is rude and proud of it! I wish they would fund somebody else.
Because Lee is a black female Democrat.
Don't try to say the workers should grow a pair. How about the woman change the way she speaks to her staff.
@@TimbreWx yeah each time she kinda diminishes my mood towards her
I think she was gonna say they should grow a pair and tell her you can't talk to me like this .

Agreed!
I agree, well said!
She defends that demon bc it is black

Lastly, I feel like she’s being let down easily because she’s black, if she were a white man or woman we would be having a completely different conversation.
Verbally abused employees who are union should go to their union and report the situation as a hostile work environment.

The allegations are true.. listen to the audio
Whoopi is so weird with the stuff she defends .
"we have to make sure it's her first" has one person even came and say it wasn't?
She defended Biden not acknowledging his granddaughter existence. These people are morally bankrupt
Not all the time but this yeah
She has no clue what she is talking about most of the time.
@@rn6710 that's not necessarily true
Whoopi Goldberg steadily making excuses for this lady 🙄🙄🙄🙄

Whoopi seriously defending this woman? She should be ashamed of herself.. she knows better
These people defended Joe Biden not acknowledging his granddaughter existence
Sheila Jackson Lee is a pathetic liar, like so many.

Sticks and stones may break your bones, but names cause permanent damage. Ana is so correct about verbal and emotional abuse, its toxic.
If the names are not true, it shouldnt bother you. People get upset when they know whats being said is true
@@Smarterthanyew that is pure BS. If a parent repeatedly tells a child they are worthless or a moron, its just verbally abusive, its coming from bad parenting
Whoopi always defends rich/powerful people who treat poor/working people like garbage. See also: Christian Bale, Mel Gibson…
I bet she’s the same, horrible people
She defends her friends.
SHE SURE DOES!!! Whoopi is rude and talks to people crazy herself. Normalizing abuse is what many OLD people like Whoopi tend to do. ABUSE IS NEVER OK!!!!
I’ve noticed this as well.

This lady need to apologize and own up to her mistakes 💯💯💯💯
Soooo disappointing for whoopie to make excuses for this vile behavior! Everyone knows it’s her. 🙄 literally both sides are against her behavior.
How can Whoopi defend this? You can’t get out of situations easily when there’s an imbalance of power. Abusive relationships for example.
Whoopi, they ARE leaving! That’s what a “high turn over rate“ means. I don’t understand your point.
Whoopie almost lost all credibility over the fire alarm puller but this take has pushed her over the edge.
Whoopi is ridiculous and rude to people herself. I wish they would find somebody else.
She been lost it
I totally agree with Sunny, Ana, and Alyssa in this segment
Very disappointed in Whoopi
Whoopi is forgetting that some people need the paycheck so they don't leave.
I think Whoopi is a woman of a certain age justifying this kind of treatment as a boss or superior in a position of power and authority. It’s kinda ridiculous. Telling them to grow a pair?? Wow.
Abuse comes in many forms - and no one should be defended from committing abuse against others. “That’s how we grew up” is exactly how that toxic cycle repeats itself.
Smart comment!
EXACTLY!!!!! It's a toxic cycle

It's true. My best friend worked for her and I vividly remember how they were treated regularly.
W. Goldberg mentions that if you are being harassed by your employer you should leave, you shouldn’t have to put up with it. Well, some people want to serve their communities and not everyone has the luxury of resigning their job and finding a job right away.
Whoopi telling ppl to leave toxic environment is shifting the blame to the victim. Does she apply this logic to victims of rape, incest etc?
No staff shouldnt leave .they should be treated with respect .everyone deserves that at thier work place
Sunny likes to exaggerate her stories especially last week when she said Jim Jordan terrorized her. Like really.
What a foul, gutter mouth congresswoman who wants to be a mayor now? But it is not her fault, this is how she was brought up.

Yes, we need to have higher standards for Congress ( and the Supreme Court).

That's exactly what I was thinking lol. Whoopi is the scary boss. Just like Ellen DeGeneres lol comedians are some of the angriest and pissiest people you'll ever meet
Whoopie IS the scary abusive boss! Former co-hosts of the View have talked about this.
Whoopi has CHOSEN to forget the many years she was black balled in Hollywood before Barbara Walter's gave her this job. Pathetic!
I worked on a project where I volunteered my services to honor one of her mentors in Texas. I had get her on camera (making comments ) for a ceremony. She was the most arrogant condescending person I have ever worked with. She actually tried to the director the interview telling us when to record and stop recording. She was very intimidating. I saw her terrible behavior first hand.
OK Whoopi, YOU ARE WRONG defending this woman who verbally abuses her staff. I don't respect you defending her and turning it on her staff. WRONG ! That woman needs to step away and give that job to someone else.
Whoopi says power dynamics doesn't apply here because it's a woman berating a man lol
Whoopi was not defending the congresswoman. Whoopi was trying to empower victims to know their worth and LEAVE toxic situations. She wasn't saying "grow a pair" and stay put. She was saying to have the courage to LEAVE. This was also within the context of having access to other job options (based on Alyssa's point about there being more lucrative jobs on K Street in DC).
Why should the onus rest on the staff and not Rep. Lee?
@@writersblock26 I don't think these action-items are mutually exclusive. One can both leave a hostile work environment and hold the employer accountable for creating such an environment. Happens in EEOC cases all the time. But rather than waiting for the legal route to play out, it's best for employees to feel empowered to leave and find psychological safety.
Sunny legal note at the end 😂😂😂😂
Sunny needs to read that every time bc they lie all the time at that table 😂😂😂😂😂
Ugh, surprise surprise Whoopi defending the other powerful person, incredibly problematic or not. It's gross and victim blaming.
If this were a republican, would y'all be laughing and joking and tell the victims to "just leave."? She should be fired.
Why they keep saying allegedly her? That is her it’s been confirmed is her. I don’t understand why the view act like they are a PR firm for the Democrats.
She is not worthy of any position of leadership, and she should resign and abstain from holding any position in government. Leadership requires a certain degree of character, and she does not have any.
The way some men speak to their staff and are called tough bosses. A woman does the same and she's a dragon. Most comments here just don't like black women having power.
Abuse on the job is not acceptable.
Whoopie G. misses the point as usual. She refuses to address the person who is causing the problem. Goldberg prefers to put the onus back onto the workers. I wonder why?
I disagree with Whoopi. I'm a Houstonian, I have seen her outside her campaign. She no longer has my vote.
I’ve heard negative things about that woman for years. I’m not voting for her
I'm surprised Sunny didnt defend this lady. You know why.
Right is Right and wrong is wrong.
I mean, she didn’t blaspheme her either… very telling, she also giggled throughout the entire segment
This is despicable. Also from Whoppie…if the environment is not right then you should leave it?!?! Wtf?!?! Maybe the representative should pack her bags and leave instead for her vile conduct. You can not count on any objectivity from this panel and I find it despicable!
i know i’m surprised too.
I hope you guys do the same if it’s a Republican who’s pro trump?? If not, stop talking cause you’re a hypocrite!
Alyssa giggles over everything
Vote it out of politics. This is not the 1900 . Whoopi should be ashamed of herself.
Wrong Wrong she did say this Just because she is Black this is not exceptable
I worked for a company that was as toxic as Rep. Lee's. I couldn't leave until I fulfilled my one-year employment agreement, otherwise I would have lost the ability to work in the same industry in other markets, and the remainder of my benefits wouldn't have been paid out. This was a private sector job where I was forced to sign this agreement as a condition of employment. Whereas the public sector may not have these kind of employment agreements, but they definitely have that same amount of power and will conspire with other offices to put you on the "do not hire" list.
