Acosta’s suspended press pass, and the press secretary’s tweet, should trail Sanders’ career as a communications professional like truck stop toilet paper.
Following in the footsteps of her boss.
Other contenders are now actively complaining that they don’t have a chance for the coveted award, because Sanders could take the prize every week.
This is OT, but a peek into the Fake News industry in Kosovo
Meeting Kosovo’s clickbait merchants
…
Making money from the internet means capturing audiences and the merchant I spoke to owned about a dozen Facebook pages, dedicated to anything from evangelical Christianity to holiday destinations.
Whatever their theme, the audiences were huge: 90,000 likes; 240,000 likes; 26,000 likes.
Burim could get his content to nearly a million pairs of eyeballs and he turned those clicks into ad revenue - both within the social media platform and on external sites. He earned about 600 euros (ÂŁ520) a day.

Meeting Kosovo's clickbait merchants
So Harvard has become the modern day Paraguay where Nazis escape to and live happily ever after. Nice.
I can already predict next weeks winner -Matt Whitaker. Though it could be Rick Scott as his meltdown continues. This is assuming, of course, Donald Trump is off the table as he could win every week. He’s like the Alabama of college football.
SHS has the audacity to call herself a Christian, just like her corrupt father.
I will note that the list of paroled Republican talking heads given in the article consists of: white men and Trumpy eye candy. I wouldn’t be surprised to see SHS come out of this persona non grata (which would be fair in a vacuum, but it would rightfully be the fate of all of them).
Shouldn’t that be Dukess or Duchess or some such thing? On second thought, never mind. There’s nothing feminine about Sarah Huckabee Sanders. When her communications skills fail her, she has a future in the WWE.
I say she gets the lifetime appointment to the post. She is an incredible liar with an added hint of truculence and disdain for reporters.
I like to think there are consequences for this stuff, although maybe not immediate. You take Trump: He was famous for stiffing people, from small contractors to big banks. You could say he got away with it, but eventually nobody in NYC would do business with him and he had to go for financing to increasingly shady sources, and now those entanglements may very well land him in jail. Where is the America that shunned him and sent him to the Russians? Still here. People who are smart, sophisticated, work hard, and mostly do the right thing out of a sense of enlightened self-interest. Today Josh Earnest is the senior vice president and chief communications officer for United Airlines. Jay Carney is senior vice president of worldwide corporate affairs at Amazon. Pretty good gigs, they’re not missing any meals I’m reasonably sure. Doors may open for Sarah after this, but not those ones. They’ll correctly call her “divisive,” but the real problem is the tacky griftiness and constant obvious lying, the stink of which won’t wash off soon. In the America that’s rational, sophisticated, educated, and pragmatic, she won’t fit all that well, any more than Sarah Palin—remember her?—has had much of a role in recent years. At any rate this is what I think and hope.
When will TPM start passing out Duke of the Year? Administration? Sarah would clearly qualify, not to mention the Idiot-in-Chief.
This is why known Trump supporters need aggressive profiling by law enforcement.
I dunno - Kellyann Conway would be my contender
It’s like counting the stars, there are so many disgraceful monsters, it’s overwhelming.
OT but Two Scoops blew off the memorial services today because it was raining. Sat in his hotel and watched TV while the other leaders laid wreaths and made speeches. He slobbers over the troops until it might require him to take a car ride in the rain when he doesn’t wanna.
He’s sure on an extended temper tantrum.
There’s a WaPo piece this morning that posits that Kellyanne is going to have to choose: Trump or her husband.
He also went up to several Baltic leaders and started giving them a hard time about the war in Yugoslavia. Took them some moments to realize the ignorant bastard didn’t know the difference between the Baltic and the Balkans.
Kellyanne should choose her husband. Sounds like he has his head on straight. I imagine they drink wine and laugh at the latest Trump stories until they blow it out their noses.
o my god. I’m speechless.
Yeah she should. That’s what the WaPo said, too.
Wonder how tough a call that will be?
