Campbell Soup VP who tweeted Soros conspiracy is out
CNN ^ | October 28, 2018 | Danielle Wiener-Bronner

The Campbell Soup lobbyist who said George Soros' foundation was assisting a caravan of migrants bound for the United States is no longer with the company.

Kelly Johnston, formerly Campbell's vice president of government affairs, tweeted on Monday that the Open Society Foundations arranged for "troop carriers" and "rail cars" to support the caravan, which formed earlier this month in Central America. Johnston has since deleted his Twitter account.

Campbell and Johnston had discussed his leaving over the summer, the company said on Saturday. Johnston was scheduled to leave in November, but the tweet sped up his exit.

"In the last few days, the company and Mr. Johnston have agreed that under the current circumstances it would be best to accelerate the timing of his departure," a company spokesperson told CNN Business. Thursday was his last day.

Darn. Used to choose Campbell over Progresso. Looks like soups off the menu.

I only used Campbell’s cream soups for casseroles, etc. I think their cans got smaller so they don’t always work well with the old recipies.

Why can’t someone fill the vacuum here.

Hopefully nobody will fill the vacuum.

Campbell's is nothing low-qual, overly processed s**t food loaded with flour and artificial ingredients. You're better off without that crap.

For what? This is a fireable offense? Is there ANY doubt who is in control right now? Soros is head of the resistance. HE is pulling the strings. And the left, from the deep state, to the media, to millions of twitter humanoids both fake and real, are doing his bidding.

And now, either Soros is INCREDIBLY lucky a synagogue was shot up, oo, the deep state has perfected a real life “Naked Gun” ability...He can use this crisis to LINK himself TO Jews as a FRIEND! And the Jewish community will HELP him do it!

D*mn. I liked their soup

Do you have a Trader Joe's near you? Their style may seem counterculture, and they were probably founded by hippies--but they're all about selling stuff, and have lots of well-treated conservative customers. Their soups, like about everything they sell, cost 25 to 50 percent less than our nearby supermarkets' stuff, and taste MUCH better.

“Big commercial companies should not be allowed to fire employees for their lawful political speech.”

Many States have protective laws against such nonsense. Colorado is one of them. An employer cannot fire an employee for activities outside of the workplace.

The Left is really circling the wagons around their good buddy, George: that’s confirmation that he’s a rat bastard.

I love the onion soup at the local Japanese place.

It’s so basic but so good.

Their ‘Healthy Request” soups aren’t all that healthy. So if the sodium is 460mg instead of 860 per serving, what’s so healthy about 460mg? And even at that, they taste LOUSY!

Canned soup is a severe health danger, due to the fact that the salt corrodes the can.

They used to coat the can with a microscopic layer of gold to prevent that, but that process was discontinued decades ago.
