Almost two years after calling Ivanka Trump a “feckless c**t,” late-night host Samantha Bee is now praising the first daughter of President Trump for helping to pass a parental leave law allowing federal government employees to take up to 12 weeks off of work if they have a child.

“After decades of being behind every other country, the U.S is finally starting to make progress, thanks, in part, to lobbying from, believe it or not, Ivanka Trump,” Bee said on “Full Frontal” this week. “This administration approved a law that gives 12 weeks of paid leave to federal employees who give birth, adopt or foster a child.”
