There’s no such thing as a participation trophy for the left. So they have to make something up.
The Women’s Media Center (WMC), founded by lefties Gloria Steinem and Jane Fonda, created an award this year for the sole purpose of having something to give to Hillary Clinton: the Wonder Woman Award. The press release reads like a remnant of the failed Clinton campaign of 2016: “The Women’s Media Center is presenting its first—and only—WMC Wonder Woman Award to Clinton as she is a hero to millions in the United States and around the globe for her extraordinary accomplishments and public service.”
The announcement came two days after The Hill broke a major story about a Clinton Russian connection. The story revealed that the FBI “had gathered substantial evidence that Russian nuclear industry officials were engaged in bribery, kickbacks, extortion and money laundering designed to grow Vladimir Putin’s atomic energy business inside the United States, according to government documents and interviews.” In addition, an eyewitness account admitted that Russian nuclear officials sent millions of dollars to the U.S. to be given to the Clinton Foundation.
But that won’t stand in the way of the left-wing celebration. On October 26, Hillary Clinton will stand with the rest of the WMC honorees, which include actresses Jane Fonda and Ashley Judd. Apparently, nobody reads the news.
Gloria Steinem is a pro-abortion feminist who was a journalist, but is now simply a full time activist for radical feminism.
Steinem, a long time Hillary supporter, wrote in the announcement, “Hillary Clinton’s actions have inspired and protected women and men on every continent. She has battled negative forces and helped to maintain a fragile peace with her negotiating skill on behalf of this country and peace-seekers everywhere. She has handled all this with grace, grit, determination, integrity, humor, and fortitude while remaining a steadfast feminist, advocate, activist, sister and tireless leader in the revolution. With this award, the Women’s Media Center declares Hillary Clinton our Wonder Woman.”

Does maintaining a fragile peace include allegedly making back-door deals with Russia over uranium? Just wondering.
Who knows how Harvey Weinstein victim Ashley Judd must feel about being honored with her “nasty woman” idol Clinton, especially in the wake of the news that the Clinton Foundation will not return the $250,000 in donations made by the sexual predator. But all this will be ignored, at least in Steinem’s narrative about the “tireless leader in the revolution.”
Even Jane Fonda, who two days ago remarked that “men like Harvey Weinstein should go to jail,” ignored the elephant in the room and instead sang Clinton’s praises. She wrote in the announcement, “I’ve known Hillary for decades and I was proud to be at the historic UN Conference on Women in Beijing when she made her groundbreaking speech, ‘Human rights are women’s rights and women’s rights are human rights.’ Over the years I’ve watched her break glass ceilings, champion women and girls, and fight for human rights domestically and internationally. I celebrate her fierce passion, compassion and dedication.”
The award’s name was most likely inspired by Clinton’s comments from earlier this year, where she compared herself to Wonder Woman in reference to the blockbuster film released this summer. The brutal irony of honoring a woman as Wonder Woman who voted against a ban on partial birth abortions, and defended an accused rapist even though it appears that she knew he was guilty, is something the left will never understand.
How pathetic....
More fraud and phoniness from the left.
All an act. Its all they have.
“The “Loser of the Year” award.”
Uhhh actually TWO time loser of the year award
And, not to forget they YUGE contribution hildabeast has made in regards to protecting women from sordid advances by sexual predators................. Oh. Never mind. “It’s a shock to me to learn that my friend Mr. whine-stain is accused of such things.”
Both women are pathetic.
Give her two awards.
The little one is for running, the big one is for stopping.
“...her extraordinary accomplishments and public service.”
Hahahahaha!
The tradition of handing out participation ribbons to the losers continues.
Indeed. The peace she created in the Middle East with her superior negotiating skills was so fragile that it broke almost instantly.
Meanwhile, in almost all of the puffery from Steinem, there is no mention of any actual accomplishment. Furthermore, she completely failed to mention the only thing that Hillary has ever accomplished--hooking herself up with a powerful man so that she can elbow her way in to some of his prestige and power. That accomplishment is about as opposite from feminism as anything can be, and is not a new or unique skill. Women have been doing that for millennia.
Aging commie crows who vote on the left & live large on the right. Hypocrites!

Maybe that’s what the award is for.
Such as facilitating the killing of Muammar Gaddafi, who W had turned into a quasi-ally in the war on terror, and allowing Islamic terrorists the fill the vacuum by turning Libya into the largest terrorist training base on earth?
That’s a rerun. LOL!
Bwah hah hah hah! This is great!
This will feed Kankles’ massive narcissistic ego so she’ll keep continuing on her manic depressive victim woman tour. Keep Kankles as the face of the Rat party, it’s all good for us!
I love it when the old FemiNazi hags double down with their uniquely bitter stupidity. Awards like this one are what you get when these FemiNazi hags get together.
Snort. Smirk. LMAO
