It's been many years, maybe a decade or more, since Mavis was working on this. I can't even remember how long ago. There was some video shown, probably on the Tonight show, of women being abused in Afghanistan, I can remember being horrified at what she reported. It was a long time ago, it seems.

Well, Jay's an equal opportunity jokester, but he probably realizes that it's night and day between the toon WH and the current admin.

Well, with all due respect - it hasn't been a decade since Mavis has worked on this. She was asked to share her expertise with the White House after we invaded Afghanistan. Mavis really did quite a lot of work exposing what was going on to women under Taliban rule. I sure don't recall anyone else in Hollywood jumping on this bandwagon.
As far as I know she helped organize relief efforts for the women and children of that country after the US liberated it.
