“It’s 2018 and I am a woman. So you cannot shut me up unless you have Michael Cohen wire me $130,000.” -- comedian Michelle Wolf at last night's White House Correspondents' Dinner. More priceless quotes here, including an unflinching burn on Kellyanne "Con Job" Conway.
BONUS QUOTE: On the media --
“I think what no one in this room wants to admit is that Trump has helped all of you,” she added. “He couldn’t sell steaks or vodka or water or college or ties or Eric. But he has helped you. He’s helped you sell your papers and your books and your TV. You helped create this monster and now you’re profiting off of him. And if you’re going to profit off of Trump, you should at least give him some money because he doesn’t have any.”Every word true.

I have only seen clips, but she tore them to pieces. The Republicans are aghast and blustering around like someone set the American flag on fire. It's delicious! And she's funny, because she calls every one of them out on their bullshit.
donnah - also the spineless shits in the media who are clutching their pearls at some of the jokes. For gawd sakes, this is a regime of fascists -- why are they giving them the benefit of the doubt at this late date (rhetorical question).
What did this audience expect to hear, accolades? Pearl clutchers, indeed.
Diva - they needed to hear it, but, as they say, they can't handle the truth!
