'The View' co-host attends 'No Kings' protest, claimed 'instigators' were planted in the crowd
"I was so proud of everybody that protested because I saw people who were put in the crowd to instigate confrontation and folks were in with it, and they did not engage," Navarro said during the show on Monday. "People were saying to each other, 'do not engage.'"
The "No Kings" protests took shape over the weekend across the country to counter President Donald Trump and his policies as he was present at the military parade honoring the 250th birthday of the U.S. Army.
"I have to tell you, it was so uplifting, because so often we ask each other, 'but what can we do as one person?' And just getting off the couch, getting off Twitter, and going and doing something and being in community, because I think a lot of us have felt fear and loneliness in the last five months, and to see this happening all over America. I saw veterans, I saw old people, I saw young people, I saw Blacks and Whites and Latinos. I saw so many people that weren't Latinos or immigrants holding up signs for the dignity of the immigrant community," Navarro said.
Navarro attended the protests in Miami, Florida, her hometown, and posted on Instagram over the weekend to thank everyone who participated in the demonstrations.
"Thank you to the millions of people who participated in the thousands of events in big and small cities all over America. It has been a particularly heart-breaking week for the Latino and immigrant community. Thank you to the allies. Thank you to everyone who is resisting and helping in so many ways. Together we are stronger," Navarro wrote on Instagram.
The other co-hosts of "The View" also praised the protests.
"Men were out for women, women were out for men, Latinos were out for Black folks, Asian folks were out, we were all out looking out for each other, because if I don't look out for you, what am I doing?" Goldberg said.
Goldberg also warned of "bad players" at protests.
"Be aware that there are bad players out there when you are protesting. When you see them starting to go, you let everybody else know what you know, not them. Because they are not there for the same reasons we are here," she said.

Helldivers 2 is the first PlayStation-published Xbox game
Arrowhead Game Studios' Helldivers 2 will make the jump to the Xbox Series X and S consoles on August 26th, costing $39.99. This is the first PlayStation-published title to launch on Xbox. The title will ship with cross play between all platforms. The cooperative PvE third-person shooter was an unexpected hit when it first launched simultaneously on PlayStation 5 and PC in early 2023. It soared in popularity on Steam, where it earned an 'overwhelmingly positive' rating, which flipped to 'overwhelmingly negative' when Sony introduced (then swiftly reversed) a decision to require a PSN login for PC players. Xbox's press release makes no mention of a PSN login, so it likely won't be required here. Helldivers 2 is a gem of a game that's high on hijinx. What initially seems like a serious sci-fi title often gives way to funny, emergent moments, thanks in part to its Strategem system, which requires you to input complex button combos while facing down swarms of enemies. There are a variety of missions you can take on against aliens, robots, and a newer Illuminate species. And, since it's a live-service title, the lore and the stakes are always evolving (and the developers often troll players). It's a fun world to be immersed in, even if you're just grinding the free battle pass for weapon upgrades. My former Polygon colleague Cass Marshall wrote some incredible Helldivers 2 coverage, which have the power to convince just about anyone that they were missing out on a good time. I mean, just look at these headlines below.

Raskin on Trump ‘ugly' remark: Not everyone can live up to his ‘exquisite' level of ‘handsomeness'
Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), a vocal critic of President Trump, shot back with sarcasm after the president seemingly called him 'ugly' in a post online. 'I suppose I don't like being called ugly by Donald Trump, but not everybody can live up to his exquisite levels of handsomeness and personal physical grace,' Raskin told MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell on 'The Last Word.' 'And so that — I would consider myself probably in the large majority of American men who simply can't live up to the exquisite standards that he's set, and his extraordinary popularity with American women,' he quipped. His remarks came after Trump, in a post on Truth Social, called the Maryland lawmaker a 'third rate Democrat politician' and said Raskin 'has no idea what is in our fantastic Tax Cut Bill, nor would he understand it if he did.' 'This DOPE has been consistently losing to me for YEARS, and I love watching his ugly face as he is forced to consistently concede DEFEAT TO TRUMP — And tonight should be another of those nights,' the president added. 'Raskin is a bad politician, and a TOTAL LOSER!' The lawmaker is no stranger to attacks after serving as impeachment manager during Trump's second impeachment trial following the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol. He also sat on the select committee investigating the riots. The back-and-forth came as the House GOP was considering the Senate-passed version of the 'big, beautiful bill.' The lower chamber advanced the spending package early Thursday after overcoming a dramatic procedural vote overnight. Democrats have been vehemently opposed to the reconciliation package, with Raskin posting on social platform X Wednesday that 'House Democrats have been 100% united in standing up for all Americans and saying no to the GOP's job-killing, health care-destroying, debt-exploding tax bill.' On Thursday, he went a step further, calling the bill a 'tax scheme.' 'The GOP's tax scheme strips health care coverage from millions of Americans, including at least 245,000 Marylanders,' he wrote on X. 'I'm voting 'hell no.'' The Hill has reached out to the White House for comment.

Baltimore City leaders call for end of BGE's 'Operation Pipeline' program, multi-year rate hikes
Baltimore City Council President Zeke Cohen and other city leaders are calling for a halt to Baltimore Gas and Electric's 'Operation Pipeline' program. The program aims to upgrade hundreds of miles of natural gas pipes and equipment across Maryland by replacing cast iron and bare steel pipes with new, more durable lines. In 2023, the Maryland Public Service Commission approved BGE's multi-year rate hike plan, which authorized a series of rate increases between 2024 and 2026. The plan, in part, will pay for the upgrades. But city leaders argue the program is driving up customer bills and increasing the company's profits. This isn't the first time city leaders have called for an end to the rate hikes. An analysis released by the Office of the People's Counsel in February found that spending on gas infrastructure is fueling the hikes, and projected even higher winter bills in the future if the company continues its current level of capital investment. The report says gas utilities will spend about $744 million on gas infrastructure in 2025. Shortly after the OPC's report was released, the Baltimore City Council passed a resolution calling on the PSC to stop the multi-year rate hikes, arguing that the infrastructure upgrades should not be paid for by taxpayers. Maryland sees rising utility costs BGE raised their rates on January 1, increasing the average residential gas bill by 9% and the electric bill by 7%. During the winter, Maryland households reported some of their highest gas bills ever. But BGE said that while the pipeline upgrades are a part of the cost increases, a 30% rise in natural gas prices over the past year, and increased spending on energy efficiency programs mandated by the state also play a factor.
