Sean Spicers Replacement Just Got Nailed With A Federal Complaint

The Democratic Coalition just filed a complaint against White House deputy press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders with the Department of Justice, after she allegedly violated federal laws restricting political activity by government employees.

If Sanders is found guilty of violating the Hatch Act, then she can be suspended for not less than 30 days, stripped of her salary for two years or fired, and face a five-year ban from employment by the federal government.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders used her official Twitter account to shill for Trump’s political campaign event in Pennsylvania, which the President used to avoid being roasted at the White House Corespondents Dinner at the end of the first 100 days of his term.

good at diffusing and obfuscating. She's a bit more subtle than Spicey. But, bottom line they are both "sold my soulers"

squash and thinking about picking small and wondering - are "baby vegetables" merely normal vegetables - just picked early or special varieties? My store had baby sweet potatoes - different colors - and they were out of this world delicious.

Whenever a friend of mine says "I never watch TV" ....I always respond with "What are you doing - are you in your garage trying to solve the acid rain problem? or looking for a cancer cure?" Heard a comedian say that one time - how he responds to people who don't watch TV and thought it clever and funny.

1000? votes - let them play it out. As long as we don't get nuked and people are still covered under ACA, we can wait it out.

was boarding a helicopter to exit WDC. Seemed like nothing important was happening after that. Just flat, boring living. Maybe this time will be different. The GOP may provide lots of entertainment as they attack each other and split.

a big, hot, colorful air balloon.

It seemed like a letdown. But it was blessed normality.

This may not deflate as quickly. There will be a lot of running around and finger-pointing by the remaining repukes.
