Tuesday's full episode of The View—their first live episode of the year—was a tribute to Barbara Walters who died on December 30 at the age of 93.

The show's current and former co-hosts alike shared their gratitude for Walters—who paved the way for them—and also recalled some of their favorite moments with the show's creator and former co-host.

Right away, many viewers of the episode noticed that former co-host Rosie O'Donnell was not present for the tribute.

Replying to comments about her absence, O'Donnell posted a video to Instagram to share the reason.

A fan's comment, "I looked for you on BW tribute today," was at the top of the screen as O'Donnell revealed:

"Yeah, they invited me, but I wasn't able to make it."
"You know, I didn't want to be in a big group of people—I was worried that I would get upset and um, didn't want to do that, so, there you go."

Viewers fully accepted her response, noting grieving should be a personal process.

Susan Collins Dragged After GOP PAC Boosts Her Campaign In The Wrong Portland

On July 4, 1786, the city of Portland, Maine, was officially founded with its newly-minted name. Almost 60 years later in 1845, Maineiac Francis Pettygrove won a coin toss against Asa Lovejoy and named their soon-to-be incorporated city in Oregon Portland after the largest city in his home state of Maine.

Since then, Portland, Oregon, has swelled to a city of approximately 675,000 people while its namesake boasts a population of just 70,000. In 2026, when people hear Portland, they think of Oregon instead of the original city in Maine.

CNN Just Visited A Struggling MAGA Store—And It Spells Bad News For Trump

CNN correspondent Elle Reeve returned to Whitey Taylor's Trump Town USA in Boones Mill, Virginia, for the first time since visiting in 2023, and her segment shows that business for the Donald Trump-themed shop has collapsed as more MAGA followers break away from the president.

Reeve, in a segment for Anderson Cooper 360, reported that "things aren't what they used to be" for the store. She spoke with Taylor, who revealed that the store, which used to make $12,000 to $15,000 in sales per day now only makes between $1,500 - $2,000 per day. On occasion, Taylor will hit $3,000 in sales if he's lucky.

JD Vance Blasted After Sharing His Absolutely Mind-Numbing Definition Of 'Socialism'

According to Merriam-Webster, socialism broadly refers to economic and political systems centered on collective or government ownership and control of the means of production.

Not exactly a concept requiring a Ph.D. to explain. One would think Vice President JD Vance, a Yale Law School graduate whose party practically uses the word as punctuation, could manage a working definition.
