Sarah Sanders can't just use her government position to attack a citizen.

[gulliver]

We're all so worried about whether the Red Hen owner did the right thing by kicking out Sanders that we seem to be overlooking the far greater wrong done by Sarah Sanders. Can Sanders just use her office and platform to attack a private citizen like that?

The Red Hen owner was completely within her rights to kick someone she didn't like (for non-discrimination reasons) out the door. Do we think it's Ok for government officials to then attack citizens for exercising their property and free speech rights?

No way.

What if Sarah Sanders were just Sarah Sanders, manager of a tree service, and not the President's Press Secretary? Sure, she might tweet how pissed off she was about being kicked out of the Red Hen for backing taking children away from their parents and lying all the time. Her five followers might care. So what?

But Sanders, the federal government employee and highly placed political administration official, has 3 million followers. They aren't following her. They are following her position. She just abused it.

Why are we being so nice about this? What Sanders did can't be allowed in America. She needs to resign.

1. She also broke the law according to a former federal ethics chief

So, sorry Sarah "Suckstobeme" Slanders, but we have a ZERO TOLERANCE policy for even misdemeanor crimes. This is a LAW and ORDER president you work for, so sorry, but

LOCK HER UP!!!!


Oh and btw Sarah, your boss also just abolished the right to due process, so no need to get a lawyer. Isn't that neat???

WOMP WOMP!!!!!

7. Since nothing will be done in the immediate future..I hope

3. Sarah KNOWS the rabid 45 cult members will react to these things. She endangered lives.

She did that tweet on her government account full well knowing it would cause a shitstorm attack on the restaurant and its owner. If she claims she didn't think about that before doing it then she lying some more.

She intentionally endangered the restaurant, its employees and the owner. And don't tell me I can't possibly guess what is in her mind. Clearly, revenge was in her mind.

4. FWIW, The Red Hen chose not to open for business last night.

I'll be curious how business is when they open again on Tuesday, as is their business schedule. If they open on Tuesday.

5. Not open on a Saturday night.

Yikes. I hope this does not back fire on them.

6. I'm wondering if they're going to hire extra security or something for the reopening.

It's also possible that they're anticipating a a huge surge of Democratic supporters coming out to eat there, and they want to make sure their food stock is fully ready so they don't run out of anything. Would be like the opposite of the Chick-Fil-A boycotts where Democrats refused to eat there, but Republicans came out in droves and they had lines out the buildings.

8. They will need extra security for sure. You never know what these idiots will do.
