great woman! Pin fanatic here - we sort of collect them.

I still have my ITMFA from the Shrub administration. I do wish, however, it would have had this background:

investigated and asked to testify for Mueller since she is a woman. He said that the moron would draw the line with Ivanka but Jared is a guy so he is not getting the same "daddy protection". Jill said Ivanka is an adviser and subject to the same treatment as anyone else.

I have immense respect for JWB. Her depth of knowledge is expansive and she is SO well spoken. I sometimes wonder what her life was like being a young woman prosecuted during Watergate. She had to be tough as nails.

and how smart and accomplished they are.

When I was growing up, ALL the experts on TV were white men. It must be so different for young women today, growing up with these role models in front of them every day.

She is great and so on top of this. Tonight she seemed to be frankly irritated by the Giuliani mess. She wants smarter foes. Joyce is great too.
Also - when Jill Wine Banks talks, I noticed Avenatti really listens to her.

That she was a player in the Watergate case is fascinating. I remember once recently she was on LOD with Avenatti, and she said she'd take Stormy Daniels as a client (and strongly implied she would NOT take anyone in the Trump admin).

She was one of the few women in law at that time. Pretty, smart and a role model
