SELLOUT SARAH? Ex-Press Secretary Sanders May Take Role with Clinton-Linked Firm
Sanders may work with a consulting firm founded by former Clinton aides.
Former White House press secretary Sarah Sanders defended President Donald Trump valiantly when he was her boss, but Sanders may be going to the dark side to push her own political ambitions now that she has left the administration.
Sanders is having discussions with Teneo, a globalist consulting firm that was founded by former aides for the Clintons, about working for the firm as an independent contractor. If brought on board, her intimate connections to the administration would help the globalist firm navigate during the tumultuous Trump presidency.
“They’ve got to walk into the room with someone who knows the White House,” an insider told Politico. “They need someone to explain how the Trump thing operates.”
Sanders is considering a run for the Arkansas governorship in 2022, and working with this influential consulting firm could help her gain the political clout needed to achieve that role. She already has the pedigree as her father, Mike Huckabee, served as Arkansas governor from 1996 to 2007.
Teneo was founded in part by Declan Kelly, a former State Department official under Hillary Clinton in the Obama administration, and Doug Band, who was one of former President Bill Clinton’s top aides. They have rapidly expanded in a relatively short period of time, amassing over 800 employees in 20 different offices throughout the world.
The firm boasts extensive connections with corporate giants and foreign governments in their repertoire. Temeo represents clients such as Coca-Cola, Delta, General Electric, Dow Chemical and Weight Watchers. They also had six of their employees register as foreign agents to take part in Neom, a futuristic city proposed in Saudi Arabia that will be funded with $500 billion from the Islamic kingdom.
Sanders also recently accepted a job with Fox News, a network that was once considered reliably conservative but has drifted left-ward considerably during Trump’s meteoric rise.
….are all in for the Open Border Socialists (or beyond). Fox hires “give Hillary the questions” @donnabrazile, Juan Williams and low ratings Shep Smith. HOPELESS & CLUELESS! They should go all the way LEFT and I will still find a way to Win – That’s what I do, Win. Too Bad!….

….I don’t want to Win for myself, I only want to Win for the people. The New @FoxNews is letting millions of GREAT people down! We have to start looking for a new News Outlet. Fox isn’t working for us anymore!

So @donnabrazile gives Crooked Hillary the Questions, and now she’s on @FoxNews!

“Fox News has been the number one news organization in the country for 17 years running and I am beyond proud to join their incredible stable of on-air contributors in providing political insights and analysis,” Sanders said in a statement.
While Sanders may be shifting to the political center to bolster her own ambitions, President Trump is still very much in her corner. He wrote on Twitter after she left the administration that Sanders is “a very special person with extraordinary talents, who has done an incredible job! I hope she decides to run for Governor of Arkansas — she would be fantastic.”
“Trump loves her,” an insider told Politico. “He doesn’t love many people. He loves her. He loves her. She’s his girl.”

Attorney General Bill Barr Folds to the Mob, Claims There is Systemic Racism in Law Enforcement
Barr said that law enforcement being unfair to blacks is a “widespread phenomenon.”
Attorney General Bill Barr has bent his knee to Black Lives Matter (BLM) activists, defending the lie of systemic racism during an interview with ABC News.
“I do think it is a widespread phenomenon that African American males, in particular, are treated with extra suspicion and maybe not given the benefit of the doubt,” Barr said to ABC News Chief Justice Correspondent Pierre Thomas during an exclusive interview.
“I think it is wrong if people are not respected appropriately and given their due,” he added, “and I think it’s something we have to address.”
Barr said that he is cheering on widespread reform in the wake of serial felon drug addict George Floyd’s death during a police encounter.
“Before the George Floyd incident I thought we were in a good place,” he said. “I think that this episode in Minneapolis showed that we still have some work to do in addressing the distrust that exists in the African American community toward law enforcement.”
Barr noted that he hopes Floyd’s death will serve as “a catalyst for the kinds of changes that are needed.”
Although Barr is paying lip service to BLM and throwing law enforcement under the bus, he has not yet joined the bandwagon to defund the police. He instead wants cops to be hamstrung and substituted with social workers in certain situations to deal with suspected criminals.
“We have to think about more investment in the police,” Barr said. “So one of the things we’ve been talking about is trying to direct some of the [Health and Human Services] money and grant programs and sync it up with law enforcement spending so we can enable the departments to have co-responders. That is, social workers and mental health experts who can go on certain kinds of calls to help.”
He cited a recent federal study conducted by the Justice Department’s civil rights division throwing law enforcement under the bus.
“We found, in that case, that there was a drug unit in the Springfield (Mass.) police department that was engaged in a pattern and practice of using excessive force,” Barr said.
Barr offered a very modest criticism of BLM during the interview for refusing to focus on the thousands of black lives that are taken by other black people.
“I also think [the phrase] is being used now – it is distorting the debate to some extent, because it is used really to refer almost exclusively to black lives that are lost to police misconduct,” he said. “Then you compare it to 8,000 homicides in the African American community, those are black lives that matter, too. And those are lives that are protected by the police.”
Barr’s response shows why Fox News host Tucker Carlson is saying that Republicans have failed abysmally in their response to a nationwide terror campaign from the Left. The weak response from the administration may cost Trump re-election in November.
