Mika Brzezinski, the author of several books on empowering women and combating sexism, said on her MSNBC show Morning Joe that I was unfit to be a mother. On Fox News’s Laura Ingraham’s show I responded: “I think it’s sad that they’re attacking a lot of us while claiming to champion women’s causes and women’s issues,” and later added, “the president’s historic tax cuts plus doubling of the child tax credit will do infinitely more to empower working moms than liberals’ personal attacks on women they disagree with ever will.”
