[Hillary Clinton](http://time.com/collection/firsts/4921038/hillary-clinton-firsts/) may have officially [ruled out another run for office](http://time.com/4935148/hillary-clinton-what-happened-politics/) on Sunday, but she is continuing to voice her opinions on the Trump Administration.

In an interview with millennial-focused news site [Refinery29](http://www.refinery29.com/2017/09/171698/hillary-clinton-election-sexism-trump-memoir) leading up to the Tuesday release of her memoir _What Happened_—an account of her [loss to Trump](http://time.com/4564004/hillary-clinton-concession-electoral-college-tie/) in the presidential election last November—Clinton was asked if she believes First Daughter and White House adviser Ivanka Trump should be held responsible for her father’s actions.

“Everyone associated with him … they’re either on board with that, or they’re not,” Clinton responded. “And if they’re not, they need to be speaking out or leaving. But if they remain silent and just give lip service to contrary points of views, then they are part of his agenda and should be judged and held accountable for that.”

Clinton also offered some advice for millennial women looking to make a difference in the world.

“I have a little mantra where I like to say resist, insist, persist, and enlist,” she explained. “Not everybody’s gonna run for office by any means, but you can support those who do. Whether it is standing up for DACA recipients…whether it is fighting for better rules to protect equal pay and overtime and all of the other pieces, or fighting to get healthcare for people. There’s so much to be involved in now, and so I feel like the commitment is there. The passion is there.”

[00:00] [ MUSIC ]
[00:04] I don't think women need to do anything other than
[00:06] what they're doing right now and that's moving
[00:09] forward. [ MUSIC ] We're coming.
[00:14] [ MUSIC ] It's essential that in life you see yourself
[00:18] Reflected in other people's stories. I was always
[00:22] looking for anybody that kinda looked like me.
[00:25] [ MUSIC ]
[00:28] The first time I walked out to pitch, different guys were
[00:32] all just like telling jokes to their teammates and the
[00:34] parents were laughing. When they saw me face the first
[00:37] batter, didn't really hear anything from that side of the
[00:40] field. [ MUSIC ]
[00:43] I've dealt with a lot of people who second guess me,
[00:45] who undermined me because of my age. People would
[00:49] associate what my hard work meant. They would
[00:50] diminish it. A lot of what pioneers do, they do
[00:54] not benefit from it. [ MUSIC ] There's plenty of room in
[00:58] the world for mediocre men. There is no room for
[01:00] mediocre women. [ MUSIC ]

[01:10] have gone to that class yelling and screaming, I'm
[01:12] gonna make you break! She literally put me in a
[01:14] catapult and threw me at it. [ MUSIC ] Here
