The incendiary and stochastic terrorist rhetoric of ABC and Disney’s The View took on its darkest and most dangerous form yet. During their Behind the Table podcast on Monday, co-host Sunny Hostin called for an open “rebellion” to fight President Trump and Republicans.

HOSTIN: Look, I mean, we’re seeing after the Supreme Court decision–

TETA: Oh, Louisiana. I’m sorry you’re right. Yes.
HOSTIN: The Louisiana decision that you can gerrymander based on political party and not race.

SUNNY HOSTIN: And we are felling the result of not having a resistance. A valuable resistance.
BRIAN TETA: You do… pic.twitter.com/bG8qvEg4uU
