Weak Women Seem to Lean Left
Segment #646
That bold statement would normally be reserved for such phony advocates for women’s rights coming from The View or lately Jenn Psaki. I remember quite well in the 1960’s being excited by the women’s rights advocates leading their movement and speaking their truths. It was inspiring and a very clear message of speaking truth to power. Then like many good things it became very political and the women’s movement degenerated into a cat fight where only liberal women could be lauded for their accomplishments. A major turning point for me was the abuse and disgusting attacks Sarah Palin and her family were forced to endure. Love her or hate her, she was a pioneer. I hope conservative women become more confrontational in fighting back against the left.
Fox News contributor Joe Concha joined 'Fox & Friends First' to discuss his reaction to Jen Psaki's comments about JD Vance and second lady Usha Vance, which he argued are 'personal attacks. Psaki demonstrates how vapid some of these left leaning commentators can be.
You are referring to Sarah Palin, an American politician who made significant, pioneering moves in her career, particularly as the first woman elected to certain offices in Alaska and on the national level for the Republican party.1
Sarah Palin 🇺🇸 Political Milestones (Pioneering Firsts)

This film looks at Palin’s personal and political life, examining how she balanced her deep-rooted values with the challenges of running a national campaign. We meet the people closest to her, including her family and long-time supporters, to get an inside look at the woman behind the headlines. Along the way, we see her fierce competitiveness, her struggles with the media, and the controversies that followed her after the election.
