Meghan McCain slammed her former colleagues on The View and revealed how they became 'vultures' during a 2019 interview with Tulsi Gabbard.
McCain, 40, a former cohost on the popular daytime talk show, was interviewing Gabbard at an event in Pennsylvania recently when she explained how she went ballistic on her cohosts.
'Can I just say the last time we were on a stage together was when you were on The View,' Gabbard, 43, said to McCain.
This led to McCain reminiscing about her times alongside Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar: 'Do you want a little juicy gossip, since it’s just us in here? They were so scared of her.'
She continued to dish: 'Tulsi and I were just starting to become friends and I remember being like, "I’m really gonna have to do defense for this woman here because they’re gonna be so mean to her."'
Meghan McCain has taken aim at her former colleagues on The View yet again while at an event in Pennsylvania last weekend
McCain was speaking to politician Tulsi Gabbard when she mentioned her 2019 appearance on The View
'And then it was like... you can look it up, it was like vultures!' she recalled, before adding: 'And then we really bonded afterward, but you took Joy to task so hard that her husband took a picture of me and I’m literally like [screaming] afterward.'
Gabbard then said: 'In the commercial break right after that, Meghan literally ran over jumping up and down with... joy,' before describing her as a 'joyful warrior.'
During her heated appearance on The View five years ago Gabbard clashed with Behar constantly and at one point she called the redhead out for previously calling her 'a useful idiot.'
This certainly isn't the first time that McCain has slammed her former colleagues.
Back in December 2023, the daughter of late Senator John McCain publicly complained about how her name was still constantly being brought up by her former colleagues - nearly two years after she quit over an on-air clash with Behar.
Last year, McCain took to X to threaten legal action after a few of the famously forthright women drew a comparison between her and Hunter Biden.
One portion of The View in particular, saw fellow Republican Ana Navarro - who in October 2023 called McCain 'a nepo baby' - insinuate the Arizona scion was profiting off her family name.
Appearing on Michael Malice's podcast Your Welcome, McCain combated those claims, and chided the six current cohosts for supposedly harassing her - as she tries to 'live [her] life' and raise her two daughters.
'I can't go a week without something being said about me on the show,' McCain told Malice during their chat.

'The thing about The View is that I didn't know when I signed my contract with ABC that this is forever, that for the rest of my life I'm going to be bullied, yelled at, abused and brought up for years,' she continued.
The pundit at that point made her full disapproval of Navarro, Behar, Goldberg, Sunny Hostin, Sara Haines, and Alyssa Farah Griffin, calling them both crass and out of touch.
'I just didn't know that when I signed to do this show that I'd have to deal with, like, these crazy old people just yelling about me all the time,' she sniped.
'I haven't been on that show in years, and I as you know, I'm just trying to live my life [and] host my own new podcast.
'I've got another project coming out in the future in January,' she added.
'And I just didn't know that when I signed into this show that would that I have to deal with [this].'
