She should not be allowed on TV. Networks should boycott her press conferences, too. Since Trump is a liar, the only way to defend him is to lie. I would say she should be fired but Trump would just pick another liar.
The redacted Mueller report shows she lied about FBI agents thanking the White House for Comey’s firing.
Watch this video and the easy manner in which Sarah Sanders publicly said “countless” FBI employees reached out to her, thanking the White House for firing the FBI Director. As you watch, realize she later told Mueller her comments were actually baseless.https://t.co/6AilVEugwJ

It's amazing to watch this knowing that she literally just MADE THIS UP https://t.co/xaTOenDSqc

New: @PressSec Sarah Sanders admitted to Mueller her public comments about FBI weren’t based in fact. Specifically, Sanders said her assertion in response to question about FBI agents supporting Comey wasn’t “founded on anything,” according to Mueller.

Told you so. Sarah Huckabee-Sanders admitted to Mueller investigators she made up this claim and lied from her official White House perch to the press and public. WE pay her salary. https://t.co/LBmApl2yzm

The White House Press Secretary admits under oath that she lied to the press. https://t.co/0RzhEWLmgo

Quite the Hogan Gidley line to @anniekarni & @maggieNYT re: Sarah Sanders' FBI agents fabrication: “The White House staff will never be lectured on truth-telling from the media that pushed a flat-out lie about Donald Trump for two years." https://t.co/QdRqBQCBY7

Honestly, the FBI thing was just one — and arguably the least consequential — of 3 lies the Mueller report documents Sarah Sanders told in that briefing alone. https://t.co/Hj93amIibQ

Let’s remember *why* @PressSec lying to the public is relevant: It falsely bolstered Trump’s pretextual reasons for firing Comey, ostensibly because of his performance. Sanders knew that wasn’t the real reason, and her lies were part and parcel of the cover up. https://t.co/JKbYCoAF2t

Respectfully, just take the L, @PressSec.

You mischaracterized your contacts with FBI agent(s), and now, inexplicably, you’ve double-downed on your exposed misrepresentation.
Please. Take. The. L. https://t.co/1V47U6dlLC
In the past, when White House press secretaries were caught making false statements from the podium, it often happened because they themselves were given false information but it was a big deal and they took it quite seriously. Think Speakes and Grenada or McClellan and CIA leak.
