"Blocking someone from Instagram is the biggest fuck you without saying a word. It's empowering!" (probably not verbatim, but the gist of her statement as I recall)....I might add I agree with her on that sooooo much and that encompasses all forms of social media.

She was refreshing, funny, articulate and genuine. I've never been a fan of all the "jokes" about her.

You know who should be shamed for this? Bill Clinton, Ken Starr, and Brett Kavanaugh.

I was really impressed with the Monica Lewinsky interview. She came across as very smart, articulate and inspirational and John was really great in the way he was so supportive of her.
