Samantha Power's Election Night Empowerment Party!!!
Can vaginas cry?
Former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power hosted all of her fellow female ambassadors to the U.N. at her apartment on election night in 2016 for what she anticipated would be a celebratory evening watching Hillary Clinton win the presidency, Power revealed in a new interview.
...
Power also invited Gloria Steinem and former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, the first woman to hold the position, to the election night party, which she expected to end with Clinton's victory.
"I thought, what an amazing night for them," Power told Politico of the 37 female ambassadors to the U.N. "I mean, that’s what America represents to the world, when a glass ceiling is shattered in our country, it creates a whole new sense of possibility for people everywhere."
Power said she hoped the election wouldn’t be "quite the blowout that it was anticipated to be," as she wanted her attendees to have more time to interact with Steinem.
Lulz. Guess you got that, and so much more.
