Hold it—we were told they left because they were disgusted by the approach President Trump insisted on using.

It seems the MSM is forgetting its lies.

They probably said they wouldn’t plead the way he wanted to, and then presented him with a maxxed out bill.

Yeah, then watch for each to have a new tell-all book which will not sell as many copies as the Fauci one. If any anti-Trump article is true.

First rule in reading any quote from the media - if the words “anonymous sources”, or “someone within the party” or other vague source or no name means liar liar statement!

I was “told” just days ago it was over election fraud so they had 3 days to come up with more anonymous sources over money

The usual fake , totally made up “news” from “anonymous sources” at the hyenas at Salon.
Yesterday, the fake news media claimed it was because Trump wanted to litigate the elections instead of fighting impeachment.
Tomorrow, they will manufacture another reason from the usual faceless, nameless anonymous sources.

The truth regarding salary. You will never be paid “what you are worth”.

You will be paid no more than the cost to replace you because once you exceed your replacement cost, you will be replaced. You will never be paid less than what you are willing to work for as you will quit and go somewhere else.
