More on liar Sarah Sanders

They won’t fire her so the networks should ban her and boycott her press conferences.

The @PressSec is quadrupling down on the lies told to the American people by now distancing herself from her claim she *personally* was contacted by FBI employees. Lost on no one is that her comments to Mueller (under penalty of perjury) were different. pic.twitter.com/E2C4gTaKrj

The quote is “She should be let go. She should be fired. End of story. When there is a lack of credibility there, you have to start lopping the heads off.”

Pretending that Ryan was calling for violence is more incitement than anything she said.

I support April Ryan. She does a great job on CNN. Unlike Sanders, she is honest.

Sarah Sanders denies she admitted to Mueller that she lied https://t.co/dOY7gZuX0H

She’s a proven liar.

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

These appearances now raise complex questions. Henceforth how does press treat Sarah Sanders? Does it rely on her less? Remind listeners/readers/viewers she is a proven dissembler every time we quote her? Or what? https://t.co/XZVlVY205W

New Interior Secretary already being investigated

What a corrupt administration starting with the president.

David Bernhardt was confirmed as Trump’s new Interior Secretary 5 days ago.
The Inspector General has already had to open an ethics investigation into him. https://t.co/BYauW6F9qW

Barr misrepresented a report before

I don’t expect him to give us an objective, complete version of the Mueller report. He has misled Congress before concerning an earlier report.

When he was earlier at DOJ, Barr wrote a summary of a redacted document. Turns out, he omitted and mischaracterized key facts.

The truth came out because Congress demanded to see the complete document.

We must accept nothing less.

History does have a way of repeating itself. https://t.co/pAioce4lQB

For today’s #RealityCheck, @JohnAvlon takes a trip back to 1989 and revisits another Bill Barr memo with "principal conclusions."

Would Barr offer a misleadingly incomplete version of the Mueller report? Thirty years ago, he did something similar. https://t.co/HufsLhDPUi

Barr was never a straight shooter. Not at OLC. Not at his first gig as Attorney General. Not now. A shifty, dishonest partisan. https://t.co/mY0UPDlRgH
— Norman Ornstein (@NormOrnstein) April 16, 2019

As this @rgoodlaw report reveals, we’re reliving the duplicity Barr practiced 30 years ago. As @RonaldKlain put it, he’s building a wall around Trump not brick by brick, but Barr by Barr. Trump really has found his Roy Cohn. They deserve each other.https://t.co/ybo8TpOEQt

I can’t tell you exactly what the pages of the report AG Barr delivers to Congress & releases to the public will contain, but I can say w/ confidence that you’ll know more than you do today, it surely won’t answer all of your questions & it will be but one part of the narrative.

"Redacted" is Barr-speak for "Coverup"

Barr has briefed the White House on the Mueller report but has stonewalled Congress in its request for the full report.

Barr appears more concerned with pleasing Trump than with the transparency he promised or the constitutional role of Congress. https://t.co/sxKxN5U16b

A federal judge has said that Barr created public distrust about whether DOJ is committed to sharing as much as possible about Mueller's findings.

How the Trump administration is destroying the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau

This is a great investigation by the New York Times.

I often think about the point @paulwaldman1 makes here, in his kind write-up of our new story on the CFPB.
Trump’s personal indifference to small-government ideals doesn’t cramp the true believers in his admin, as some Rs once feared.
It liberates them. https://t.co/LThm7o2NWT

Another Trump nominee won’t say that Brown v. Board of Education was correct

Brown v. Board of Education was a landmark Supreme Court case that resulted in a ruling that school segregation was unconstitutional.

Now, another Trump nominee won’t say that it was correctly decided. This is racism right out in the open.

Jeffrey Rosen, DAG nominee, declines to say if Brown v. Board of Education was correctly decided https://t.co/GWSClINu96

This puts him in the same camp as a number of Trump's judicial nominees, including Judges Wendy Vitter and Andrew Oldham
— Betsy Woodruff (@woodruffbets) April 10, 2019

If you can’t agree that Brown v Board, SCOTUS’s 1954 education desegregation case, was decided correctly, you don’t belong at DOJ, let alone in the no. 2 position. https://t.co/wq2BN3LQQG

Ethics Office won’t certify Mnuchin’s financial disclosure

Trump has appointed so many people who bend or break ethical rules. They’re just like him.

Mnuchin says he does not think he should have had to sell his stake in Stormchaser to his wife and still does not know why he had to. https://t.co/F101kupzur

The top federal ethics watchdog said on Thursday that Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin’s sale of his stake in a film production business to his wife did not comply with federal ethics rules, and it would not certify his 2018 financial disclosure report. https://t.co/Tt3cf1GffX

White House photos don’t represent American diversity

No big surprise here – white supremacist Trump surrounds himself primarily with white people. They are primarily men, too.

In image after image emanating from the White House, Trump is seen almost exclusively with white people, writes @DavidNakamura — a “vivid, if unspoken, statement of the distance between the president and wide swaths of a nation.” https://t.co/akGMUx7CMh

Medicare chief spends government funds on GOP consultants

More abuse by a Trump appointee. What a corrupt bunch!
