Joy Behar — “Women in the world have conducted sex strikes in history. In 2003, a sex strike helped to end Liberia’s brutal civil war. The woman who started it was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

Discussing comedian Trevor Noah’s performance, Behar said, “Can I say something about Trevor because I’m a comedian, and you are? I think that’s a very hard job. He was good for, like, almost an hour. His jokes were, like, so smoothly integrated into the bit. To make Washington laugh is hard. The only audience that’s worst than Washington are doctors. They’re the...
