Today we've got a reading series on the Vanity Fair piece written by Ruby Rippey (free link), who had an affair with Governor Gavin Newsom during his tenure as mayor of San Francisco.
It's a really fascinating essay, as well as the first time Rippey has come out and spoken about her side of the affair, which took place when she was married to Newsom's chief of staff/close friend. She discusses her struggles with addiction, how her husband found out, and the way that Newsom and now-first-partner Jennifer Siebel-Newsom trashed her in the press.
