Chelsea Clinton Gets Lifetime Achievement Award For Doing Nothing
Next month, Variety magazine will host its annual “Women in Power” luncheon, where it will pass out honors and awards to several lucky ladies who have dedicated their lives to the service of others.
The “Lifetime Impact Honorees” are all women whose work in 2016 and before have made the world a better place.
This year, for no apparent reason, Chelsea Clinton, the daughter of former President Bill Clinton and former Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, will get a one of those awards for her service to…well, that part’s not quite clear.
But she’ll be honored for her achievement anyway.
According to Variety (in partnership with Lifetime networks), the women will get the award for “their humanitarian work,” as well as their impact on the fields of entertainment and media. Included in this year’s group is Jessica Chastain, who has led a one-woman campaign in support of Planned Parenthood and O-magazine editor and Oprah BFF Gayle King, who uses her fortune to help the homeless and destitute in New York City.
Other honorees have fought child sex trafficking, helped homeless youth, and funded a vast network of legal clinics to aid the marginalized.
Chelsea Clinton, it says, is vice chair of the Clinton Foundation. A foundation she only works for because her parents founded it to keep their wealth flowing in the years they don’t spend running for public office. But it helps children.
Chelsea’s many other endeavors—authoring books that don’t sell, being snarky on Twitter, and serving on the board of several large-scale tech firms, operated by major Democratic donors—were oddly left out of her official biography.
Four hundred people are expected to attend the April 21st luncheon, one of the largest gatherings of powerful women each year. It’s almost certain Chelsea will attend, despite her crowded social calendar.
Thank You Ms Zanotti and Heatstreet.

So it’s not diet and heredity? Gotta love Chelsea, she’s always good for a little bit of crazy.
Via Twitchy:
Horrifying research; one degree Celsius increase could cause a bunch of people to get diabetes.
Right.
It could … but then again climate change could ALSO cause an increase in the number of monkeys flying out of your butt.
Thank You Nick.
Where's that double shot of Thorazine on the rocks?
