The View co-host Sunny Hostin just revealed the perfect way to keep her out of your neighborhood: fly an American flag.
Fresh back from the Fourth of July holiday, Hostin declared on-air that she feels “unsafe” when she sees American flags displayed in communities—because she believes the flag has been “co-opted” by white supremacists.
Hostin says that any community with American flags is automatically racist:

Hostin even admitted this wasn’t a new take—she’s been harboring this view for years.
“And I said this on this show many, many years ago. Because this is my tenth year on the show and I said there are times; when I walk into a community and I see American flags all over the community and I suddenly feel unsafe, because there’s a section of this country that has co-opted the American flag and they equate being an American or an American flag with white supremacy,” she said.
The ABC host’s anti-American sentiment doesn’t stop at flags.
Last year, Hostin shared her concern that everyone in the “all-white neighborhood” she’d just moved into was secretly racist—and that neighbors would call the police to harass her son while he jogged.
“I have had to be in the position where I’ve gone to my local police department because I know my son is going to be training for the Junior Olympics, running around the neighborhood, in an all-white neighborhood, and I have brought him to the police and said he belongs to me, this is my son. Do not harass him, do not stop him.”
Sunny Hostin apparently thinks all her white neighbors are racists. She says she fears them calling the police on on her son if they see him training for the Junior Olympics:

Hostin justified her paranoia by claiming she’s “a mother of black children” who knows “black boys are not given the presumption of innocence.”
Earlier this year, Hostin went even further—admitting she was “embarrassed” to be an American and calling the United States a “failed experiment” as the nation approaches its 250th anniversary.
Sunny Hostin, who once said she was more comfortable in Ghana than America, says she’s “embarrassed” by the country as America nears 250 and calls it a “failed experiment” in self governance:

Where did Hostin learn to view America this way?
According to the ABC host herself, she learned it from her father. In a 2023 reaction to a Supreme Court ruling against affirmative action, Hostin quoted her father’s “wisdom”: “My father always told me you have to work twice as hard to get half as far in this country and that remains true.”
If you want to see where The View’s Sunny Hostin got her hatred of America, here she is on June 29, 2023 talking about affirmative action and explaining how her father taught her to hate:
“It’s been harder for us, and I’m sorry, people may not agree with that. My father always… pic.twitter.com/QAPHUVC1Ke

Hostin’s brazen anti-Americanism apparently has the full backing of ABC News and Disney.
Meanwhile, new sexual assault allegations against Maine Democratic Senate nominee Graham Platner weren’t enough to scare Hostin away from fully supporting him.
Now that the Fourth of July has passed and Halloween decorations are already hitting store shelves, patriots know the perfect deterrent: hang an American flag.
