Schwarzenegger then announced that he will deliver a speech at Mount Vernon
to celebrate the 250th birthday of America, where some immigrants will be
sworn in as U.S. citizens, and that he is excited to celebrate the benefits
of immigration.

 The open borders crowd has even criticized those swearing-in ceremonies,
saying they should be stopped because they're used as propaganda by the Right
to highlight "the correct way to become a citizen", when in their opinion, you
shouldn't have to be sworn in or pass any tests or be vetted. All you should
have to do is pay a cartel coyote to smuggle you across the border in the dark

As he spoke, multiple hosts attempted to interrupt him, with Sunny Hostin
even placing her hand on Schwarzenegger's arm as though she wanted him to
stop speaking.

 That was my favorite part. The camera was only on Arnold so you just see this
set of Hostin claws suddenly creep into frame and settle on his arm. His eyes
glance down at it for split second and then he keeps going and the crone hand
starts to retreat back off camera.
 

The hosts attempted to interrupt, but could not be heard after the audience
erupted into applause.

 I can only imagine the enraged snorts and bellows from Whoopi and Joy after
they cut to commercial.
