Sarah Sanders' dishonest defense of Trump and his assault on the free press reaches a new low
NBC "News" ^ | August 3, 2018 | by Matt Simon

$180,000.

That’s how much Sarah Sanders earns a year as White House Press Secretary. She joins 23 other White House employees in that top salary bracket.

That means this is also how much she is paid to spread lies to the American people and peddle conspiracy theories on behalf of the president of the United States of America.

Sanders has had her current job for a little over a year. But it’s become increasingly clear that there are very few limits to what she will do when it comes to making excuses for her boss. Being the press secretary is a difficult job in any administration, but Sanders continues to lower the bar when it comes to falsehoods and obfuscation, in the process undermining the Bill of Rights not to mention the integrity of the Trump White House.

Simply put, Sanders is reaching a point of no return; in fact, she may have already passed it. The question she needs to ask herself is $180,000 a year worth the damage she is doing to herself, the free press, the institution of the presidency and ultimately, the country at large.

The mainstream media sure can dish it out but can’t take it. They want a full pass to operate as the Democratic Party’s propaganda arm, and cry like babies should anyone call them out on their suffocating B.S.

The NBC network (does it stand for Nothing But Crap?) is a failing disgrace to journalism

Obama's press secretary had Stalin posters hanging in his home. Was that okay with NBC?

What “free press”? You mean the DNC’s propaganda arm for the ignorant, uneducated and uninformed who regurgitate verbatim everything they hear on TV back to every pollster who calls them.?

I may be willing to donate a Case of tissues to NBC to prevent their tears flooding out their electronics.
I’ll think it over for a few minutes. They sound so sad!!

Who is more respected? Sarah or Jim? The one who is honest, intelligent and a shining light as a parent, person and life success. The other is covered with swamp mess.

Hmm... no place to comment.

Lefties throw this trash out there, and fear any discussion about it.

I wish that President Trump would put it on his agenda to have taxpayer funding of PBS/NPR cut. Let the left and the ‘rat party pay for its own propaganda. Why should we have to pay for propaganda opposing us?

The "drive-by" media, they throw out their hate filled violence inducing lies and then split the scene. they then re emerge and falsely criticize Trump for what they are guilty of - pretty simple.

No sale, NBC. You ARE the enemy of America. YOU are my enemy. Get used to more and more people rejecting your delusion.

“Fabricated conspiracy theory,” is it? Does the writer think it mere coincidence, when major newspapers, major TV News services, etc., all jump on the same trivia in virtually the same terms, at the same time, in preference to actually reporting more important news?

The only question is how much the conspiracy is driven by a common compulsion. It is clearly not driven by a reasoned desire to see America return to her principles.

Compassion Or Compulsion?
