The View’s Navarro Claims Hispanics, Blacks Could Be White Supremacists

'Look, being Hispanic or being black does not, or being anything, does not make you immune from ... being a white supremacist...'

(Luis CornelioHeadline USA) Ana Navarro, the self-proclaimed Republican co-host of The View, is under fire after making a controversial remark claiming that Latinos and blacks could also be white supremacists. The embattled host’s comments were made during a segment involving the nationality of the gunman who savagely killed eight individuals before being gun downed by an office at Allen Premium Outlet Mall in Texas.

Some legacy outlets, including the Washington Post, rushed to claim, without evidence, that Mauricio Garcia posted hateful messages against Jews and people of color before taking to the mall to commit the heinous act. Navarro, known for her incendiary comments against conservatives, echoed the same outlandish remarks, which have yet to be confirmed by local law enforcement.

“We all have to remember that the head of the Proud Boys, his name is Enrique Tarrio; the Proud Boys is a white nationalist group,” Navarro said. “Look, being Hispanic or being black does not, or being anything, does not make you immune from being racist, from being radicalized, from being a white supremacist, from being evil, from being homicidal. And we are seeing it over and over again. There are people who, they don’t see themselves as what they are.”

Co-host Sunny Hostin said the allegations were “bizarre” and called on the FBI to crack down on the racially motivated attacks.

“But this shooter who happened to be Hispanic and Latino, which is bizarre to me, had a White supremacy moniker on him,” Hostin said. “So, Christopher Wray, these are not my words, so people don’t start with the ‘I’m a race baiter crap.’ Christopher Wray said that the biggest threat to our democracy is White supremacy and domestic terrorism. He testified before Congress.”

The co-host referred to several remarks by FBI Director Way who said that racially motivated threats accounted for most of the federal agency’s work on terrorist threats.

“Within the domestic terrorism bucket, the category as a whole, racially motivated violent extremism is, I think, the biggest bucket within that larger group,” Wray claimed in testimony before the House Homeland Security Committee in 2020. “And within the racially motivated violent extremist bucket, people subscribing to some kind of white supremacist-type ideology is certainly the biggest chunk of that.”

Navarro took to Twitter to double down on her claims, writing “WHERE IS THE LIE? The former leader of the Proud Boys, Enrique Tarrio, convicted last week of seditious conspiracy, is Afro-Latino,” the host continued, also adding that, “Having Hispanic blood or Black blood does not mean you cannot fancy yourself a white-nationalist, and spread hate.”
