After much discussion, the cohosts of ABC’s “The View” have determined that the origin of the COVID-19 pandemic “wasn’t in this country” — and Joy Behar even said that she’d heard somewhere that it might have come from a lab.

In a segment from Tuesday’s live broadcast — years after most Americans had determined that COVID had most likely leaked from a lab in Wuhan, China — the show’s cohosts embraced the pandemic’s foreign origins in an attempt to attack Republicans for continuing to question the roles played by American officials like Dr. Anthony Fauci.

Joy Behar began by complaining about Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), who had objected to referring to Fauci as “doctor” during a Monday hearing, saying that she was disrespectful and not very smart.

“She’s really stupid, and so disrespectful,” Behar said.

Sunny Hostin went on to criticize Republicans in Congress for investigating American officials, saying that it didn’t make sense to scrutinize their roles if the pandemic had originated outside the United States.

“Fifteen months of an investigation — we have real problems in this country,” Hostin began. “Fifteen months of an investigation, spending real taxpayer dollars, it really really just gets to me. And I think that people like Marjorie Taylor Greene and other people really need to start doing the work of the people, as opposed to trying to send these messages.”

“They say that they cannot find out what happened here in the United States in terms of the origin of COVID — well, maybe because the origin wasn’t in this country. Maybe it was in another country, and maybe they need to now start looking at other countries.”

“They say it possibly came out of a lab,” Behar interjected.

Whoopi Goldberg concluded the segment by reminding everyone that “people died” during the pandemic and suggesting that Republicans were saying “people made it up.”

President Joe Biden signed a weak executive order on Tuesday to address the border crisis he caused that has resulted in millions of illegal aliens overrunning the border over the last three and a half years.

Biden signed an executive order that will “temporarily shut down asylum requests once the average number of daily encounters tops 2,500 between official ports of entry,” NBC News reported.

Former Obama Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson previously said that 1,000 apprehensions at the border in a day was a “bad number” that “overwhelms the system.”

A former U.S. law enforcement official told The Daily Wire that the executive order was designed to do little more than generate headlines and that Mexican drug cartels would simply send the migrants they are smuggling into the country to official ports of entry to turn themselves in.

The administration released a fact sheet that claimed that illegal aliens who entered the U.S. would be barred from receiving asylum. However, the fact sheet said that “these actions are not permanent.”

The executive order comes after Biden has repeatedly claimed that he could not do anything to address the border crisis that he caused, which has approximately 10 million illegal aliens flooding into the U.S.

“It’s window dressing. Everybody knows it,” said Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA). “If he was concerned about the border, he would have done this a long time ago.”

The White House claimed that Biden has been tough on the border and suggested that he has stopped the flow of fentanyl into the U.S., even though overdose deaths continue to rise from the illicit drug.

The administration also claimed that Biden reached a “historic bipartisan agreement with Senate Democrats and Republicans to deliver the most consequential reforms of America’s immigration laws in decades” — even though Republicans overwhelmingly did not support the law because they argued that it legalized illegal immigration.
