Edith Wilson's influence transcended the traditional role of First Lady. She navigated the corridors of power with grace, resilience, and determination.

Edith Wilson captured the heart of President Woodrow Wilson, but her life took an unexpected turn when her husband suffered a debilitating stroke during his second term, leaving him incapacitated. Unbeknownst to many, Edith would rise to the occasion, becoming the de facto steward of the nation in a time of crisis.

She managed the executive branch from behind closed doors, screening documents, making decisions, and even interacting with Cabinet members on behalf of the President. We delve into the controversies surrounding her role, from the public's lack of awareness to the delicate balance between loyalty and constitutionality.

(This episode is a repeat while the hoes are on vacation.)
