It seems to be 1933 again.

Meh.

Looks to me like the agency ain’t doing too well and is trying to curry favor by making a burnt offering.

It could be seen as descriminatory IF others in her office use Twitter and Facebook and are not fired. Why single out GAB and Paler? Oh because she's a religious conservative. Trust me, where there is a willing lawyer there is a way.

This was a PR stunt.

I feel bad for the sacrificial employee, but what the heck did she expect from these people?!

I’m wondering if they hired her to fire her.

In which case you can bet the agency has covered its behind.

This all seems to be coming from the Left.

Are there ANY reports of conservative businesses firing/doxxing/deplatforming Democrats?

I just read their client list. Elf on the Shelf is their main draw. Then there are some ancient soap stars.

I also read the bio of their newest agent. She only wants some stuff.

I wonder who the fired agent represented.

Pity the vile owner of that agency will never really be held accountable for her evil act.

It’s both. Clearly a violation of her civil rights.

So some here are fine with conservatives being targeted, fired, blacklisted for being conservative. Some here were supportive of the courts when they denied to hear any cases concerning the election, blaming the lawyers for errors. Some here were supportive of conservatives being banned from social media platforms, because they were too extreme in their views anyway. Democrats main goal right now is to eliminate conservatives. They don’t care if they do it legally or not. Some here would give that a big thumbs up.

Nope. Courts have ruled that termination for political beliefs is allowable under "at-will" employment.

This is religious discrimination.

Leftism is a religion that does not tolerate other religions.

Some here gave a big thumbs up to the communist overthrow of our Republic. They still post here today.

On their list of authors (20+), they only have one Black.
That seems mighty white, of them?

She should not have identified her agency affiliation in her handle on any social media site. That's a good rule for everyone to follow, in any field. Keep your business and professional life separate from your personal political life.

A second question is whether this agency has a written policy on employee online conduct. If it's going to fire employees based on off-duty activity, it should post some defensible guidelines. If I were an employee, I would want to know if I'm liable to be fired any time some leftist twitter rage monkey decides to take a scalp.

Still a violation of her civil rights. Just because the courts “rule” in a certain way doesn’t change the fact that it is. Add to that, she was fired in such a way as to deliberately harm her attempts to seek employment in the same field.

“... they were worn down to the bone...”

Very good observation. That’s exactly what the left is doing to us, just harassment on every side and from every angle. Finally people just give up and go silent.
