She’s iconic, sure, but her tenure on the View was insufferable. Another Mockingbird talking head, rainbow club or not.

As a Jewish American, ISN’T SHE APPROPRIATING WITH A JEWISH SURNAME? F*CK THAT. Caryn Elaine Johnson . That’s her birth name. Why did she decide this? WHO decided this?

Apparently, the top criterion to receive a key to the city is to be a major clown.

Was Stormy Daniels not eligible for a second key? What has Whoopie Cushion ever done for anybody but encourage division if you don’t agree with her politics? 🤔

Finally the key goes to someone upstanding who has contributed positively to the quality of life.

She once played a nun, and many nuns are lesbian, and many lesbians call WeHo home.
