Michelle Obama

Michelle Obama doesn’t want you to think that she has an agenda, in any way, shape, or form.

ABC journalist and Obama fan Robin Roberts on Monday’s Nightline gushed over a new book of pictures of the Obamas.

During her show on Tuesday, HLN’s S.E. Cupp unloaded on liberal Hollywood for keeping Harvey Weinstein’s predatory nature an “open secret” throughout the industry while slamming and shaming conservative women as traitors to their gender. “But there's another problem here, and it's why so many women like me are angry that Hollywood protected Weinstein’s horrific treatment of women for so long,”…

At a marketing conference in Boston Wednesday, former First Lady Michelle Obama complained that women who voted against Hillary Clinton, must not have their own voice.
