Trump aides targeted in corporate blacklist effort by immigration, civil rights groups
Fox News ^ | Apr. 8, 2019 | Bradford Betz

As outgoing Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen looks for her next job following her resignation Sunday, she may find herself battling a liberal blacklisting effort against those who've served in the Trump administration.

Nielsen's name appears on a list that a cabal of immigration and civil rights groups recently sent to the CEOs of American companies, urging them not to hire Trump officials who were involved in last year's separation of migrant children from their families.

Other current and former Trump administration officials targeted include John Kelly, the former White House chief of staff, and Sarah Sanders, the current White House press secretary.

"Some of these individuals have left the administration in recent months," the letter to the CEOs states. "Regardless of when they leave, they should not be allowed to seek refuge in your boardrooms or corner offices. Allowing them to step off the revolving door and into your welcoming arms should be a nonstarter."

That sounds like something that libertarians who call themselves conservatives argue. I’d refer them to Article 3 Section 3 of the Constitution that they claim to revere; and also to Goal #37 of the 45 communist goals for the USA, which states: “Infiltrate and gain control of big business.”

All Trump has to do is order IRS to issue a ruling stating that compensation paid to illegal aliens is not tax deductible and it would be over.

It would also be fine with me if stockholders of these companies made clear that yielding to threats from pressure groups of any kind regarding hiring decisions is unacceptable.

Most of these stocks are owned by mutual funds.

Do you own any mutual funds?

Do you know their holdings if you do?

The more that I learn about LEFTIST DIMocRATS the better that I like rodents, poisonous snakes, venomous spiders & worms.

The same companies that gave multi-million a year jobs to Chelsea Clinton?

I sure would like a copy of her IQ tests. Pretty sure it is only double digits-—not triple.

“...urging them not to hire Trump officials who were involved in last year’s separation of migrant children from their families. “

Even FNC is parroting this fake narrative now?

Let them form a new corporation, Deplorables, Inc., go public, and not hire anyone BUT former Trump staffers. What’ll they sell? Wall construction.

And some people think we are not already at war...

Just because we are in war doesn't mean we are at war.

Ask Colin Kaepernick.

Sure ask him what his payout was, then decide.

Pre-emptively sue to prevent damages.
And name that spokesperson Karl Farce at the top,
And watch him shit a brick when that 501c3 tells him he’s not covered by legal.

So the letter is meant to serve as a warning as to what could happen to their brands?

“Nice company ya got there. Be a shame if something happened to it.”

Since everyone of the members of the leadership of Restore Public Trust were employed by either Obama admin or DNC, they should all be placed on the “do not hire” list. Obama was the one putting the kids in cages and lost track of many of the separated kids.

Time to publicize everything and everyone related to Restore Public Trust - names, addresses, funding, political supporters, etc.

Yes, this shit is a two-way street and we’re driving 18 wheelers, not weenie Priuses.

COLLECT ARTICLES, NAMES, ETC. AND POST THEM HERE AT FR. They will go to key research groups who keep track of the Marxist Left and Black extremists in America.

Put it up on the NYSE, and the Moscow Stock Exchange, too.
