1. That sounds like a fun job!

[TheBlackAdder]

13. She stuck out this long with that bullshitter, so that's more a reflection of her than anyone else.

[PCIntern]

2. From her name I'm going to assume that she is Jewish, not Jew-ish...

Dollars to doughnuts she quit for numerous reasons but the principal one I’ll bet was the Jew-ish thing. Also who the hell would want to be associated with a prick like this?

We don’t particularly like the kind of shit that he pulled, that slimy motherfucker. You know, we are a lot of things, and one of those things is extremely sensitive to people appropriating our heritage when they need it for some stupid reason. If you recall the character in the film Snatch who pretended he was Jewish, wore a yarmulke, and spoke Yiddish was the most vilified in the film for being a terrible phony.

As an aside, what a terrific picture, and if you liked it, make sure you see Bullet Train, also with Brad Pitt in a fantastic role.

3. Rats jumping ship...

[not fooled]

28. Hahahahahahahahaha

Does that 'toon reference earlier disastrous GOP officeholder chimpy? Applies to so many republicans that it should come in "fill-in-the-blank" format for whichever disgraced pol is imploding at the moment.

[underpants]

4. That has to be the most perfect name for a job ever

Gabby

[GreenWave]

9. And Lipsky would be a perfect amusement ride for facial microbes.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

16. Wtf?

[bucolic_frolic]

5. Secretary of Lies realized what she was in for

[Rebl2]

15. Hope she

gets questioned about all his lies-under oath.

[EYESORE 9001]

6. That'll look good on a resume

Propagated lies on daily basis.

Exercised restraint in uncovering truth about hosebag boss.

Deflected unpleasant questions.

[Casady1]

7. Actually just the opposite

She will be able to say that she has morals.

[EYESORE 9001]

11. Looking at it from a hiring manager's point of view

A truly virtuous person would have quit at the first whiff of impropriety. Guess it depends on the job in question.

[Casady1]

12. How do you know

that she knew.

[EYESORE 9001]

20. If I'm a hiring manager, I'm gonna assume me she knew

Which makes me a lousy hiring manager at a place she’s better off not working anyway.

[Casady1]

30. You would be a terrible

Manager as you have made up your mind before you did any research. I’m glad I never worked for you.

[EYESORE 9001]

34. Thank you for your time

The administrative assistant you met in the lobby will validate your parking ticket.

[Casady1]

35. I own my company

So I decide who I do business with.

[CTyankee]

22. Not necessarily. Some might regard it as a strong thing, to admit when you were wrong. So there

could be some merit in it. After all, she DID quit. She "saw the light" as it were.

[marmar]

8. Gabby Lipsky -- what a name for a press sec. .....

Almost sounds made up, just like everything else with Santos.

[Kid Berwyn]

10. A dream job.

Gone in a puff of hot air.

[Ocelot II]

14. Can't think why...

[Marthe48]

17. Too bad the L.I. r's didn't distance themselves before the liar ran

got elected, and brings Congress to yet a lower benchmark. They got the guy the wanted into the seat, and could give a damn less about the uproar.

[Alexander Of Assyria]

23. Remember when there were honorable politicians who Would resign on even a hint of scandal, to

protect the integrity of the system… Senator Al Franken(D)?

Now it’s like more dishonor your bring to politics and the Offices belonging to the People, the more entertaining you are and you must not Resign! until The Media has had its fun…and profit.

Witness 4 years+ of the Clown Court…nary a single media call to Resign!??

It’s all fked up.

[Marthe48]

26. Yes it is

I told my daughter I don't understand how we got to this disgraceful place. It is more that I am stunned by being in this backwards, degenerate situation. I do remember honor, good judgement, electing the cream of the crop, and maybe that is why the sudden fall into disrepute is so hard to understand.

My personal best hasn't changed, and I hope enough people have honor and good judgement to hamper--dare I hope for a full stop?--the ascension of the completely venal, brainless, back-of-the-class idiots destroying the ideals of the U.S.A.

[Lonestarblue]

27. Yes. Al Franken resigned on a mere whiff of impropriety, most of which was made up.

But Republicans don’t have integrity or honesty. They just love corruptions and lying.

[a kennedy]

29. My Senator, and I'm still pissed as hell over it. 🤬 🤬 🤬

[Alexander Of Assyria]

32. The Media was all over Franken to resign, pressured enough Ds to join the small chorus to move

an honorable man. My respect, always.

[ProfessorGAC]

18. OK, I'm Not In Their Loop, But...

...a freshman congressperson needs a press secretary? They can't pool the efforts for backbenchers?
I thought the Rs were about fiscal responsibility.

[greatauntoftriplets]

19. That had to be a thankless task.

She may have just saved her career.

[republianmushroom]

21. like it

[MyOwnPeace]

24. It's her boss that should be the one to resign.....

maybe he'll take the hint..............

[Traildogbob]

25. K. MAGAninny will do it

While proudly sporting her big cross on a necklace. Zero morals with that opportunist.

[Blue Owl]

31. The new secretary will be Aleksandrevna Dominika, who is not a Russian

[Alexander Of Assyria]

33. Natasha Fatale is looking for a gig. Ok, obviously Russian but now that it's out there.

[lindysalsagal]

36. She lasted dozens of Scaramuci's.

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

37. he will take office as national joke
