Three sources with knowledge of the replacement talks informed the news outlet that Alyssa will be joining Sara Haines, Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, and Sunny Hostin on weekday mornings.

Alyssa, a 33-year-old who has recently taken part in various heated discussions on The View, will be named as McCain's full-time replacement for the show's 26th season, as per the sources.

"My jaw dropped when I was told that she was the pick. It makes no sense," one of the sources said.

"Part of me wishes they just leaned into MAGA and hired Kimberly Guilfoyle, at least it would better reflect part of the audience and there would be fireworks every day."

Another insider told the news outlet: "Her soon-to-be co-hosts are very upset. They feel she isn’t authentic and changes her opinions based on who her paymaster is.

"Ana Navarro especially feels let down as they are hiring someone who was an essential part of the movement that destabilized this country.

"Alyssa’s family is also problematic. Her father Joseph founded WorldNetDaily a website that promotes conspiracy theories. It’s terrifying."

"Her appointment will also cost us bookings," a third source said. "Wanda Sykes pulled out because she didn’t want to be on the show with her."

Recently, The View fans threatened to boycott the daytime talk show if Alyssa is hired as a new permanent host.

She recently appeared on the show to talk about the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, the inflation crisis, and rise of gas prices.

Alyssa's July appearance on the ABC program came after rumors about the search for a new permanent panelist kicked off.

Fans have speculated that the former communications director to ex-president Donald Trump might be joining the show full-time to take over the conservative seat from ex-panelist Meghan McCain.
