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.

I wasn’t buying much Campbell soup before. Going forward... zero.

I can't remember why I stopped buying Campbell's soup a few years ago.

Whatever the reason, this confirms I did the right thing.

Oddly enough, California ran Campbell's soupmaking operation out of the state about ten years ago.

This is why the left wins. They dox and harass people until they lose their jobs, homes, and their livelihoods.

D*mn. I liked their soup, but I’m sick and tired of idiot companies who fire folks for telling the truth.

Eff Campbell.

You have competitors, Obamahole. Live it, love it.

It is against the law to tell the truth about Soros.

Oh wait, my miscue. They canned a guy who complained... that’s different. Sorry

Wouldn’t this be a nice time for Chick-Fil-A or the like to diversify into soups?

We need a new zeitgeist.

I haven’t bought Campbell’s soup since the “two dads commercial” and never will again.

That VP should have no problem landing a job with a good company.

Why can’t someone fill the vacuum here. Someone of the stature of Chick-Fil-A (just as an example). Chick-Fil-A brand soups...? Specialty being chicken.

Their soups aren’t very good. One exception IMHO is the condensed mushroom soup, which is a decent additive to a tuna casserole. But, then it isn’t being used as a soup there.

Forget “stones.” Think Rock of Ages.
