OMG 🤣🤣🤣

Watch Eric Trump pearl-clutch as he’s informed that Boris Epshteyn has been selling access to Trump and future government contracts—AKA pay-to-play.

I think this book is the one I’d recommend to every single woman. Teenage girls need to read it. Start early.

Women have been socialized completely out of trusting our instincts. I tweeted yesterday that emotions are a COMPASS. And you should not suppress them

This book will stay with you #booksky
