Since he summer of 2017, Sarah Huckabee Sanders has been Press Secretary and Liar in Chief for P<\/strike>resident Donald Trump, aka Fuhrer Drumpfenfarten.  I call her Upchuckabee, because it best describes what comes out of her mouth, whenever she lies on behalf of her Fuhrer.  I look forward to her departure.<\/font><\/p>\n

\"1217Sanders\"<\/p>\n

Sarah Huckabee Sanders announced that she would be leaving the White House at the end of 2018<\/a> after serving for two years in the administration. She leaves behind a legacy of lying to such a degree it\u2019s become a farce.<\/p>\n

Credibility from the press podium has spent the better part of her term falling to 30 percent approval rating<\/a>, lower than even her boss. According to YouGov surveys, her approval rating among the Millennial Generation is an embarrassing 21 percent.<\/p>\n

The survey doesn\u2019t breakdown trustworthiness, but throughout 2018, Huckabee Sanders\u2019 lies from the podium couldn\u2019t have helped with respectability. As we close out the year and the White House career of the staffer Stephen Colbert likes calling HuckaSand<\/a>, these are the most egregious lies from her podium.<\/p>\n

1. Family Separation lies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

During her third daily press briefing in June, Sanders sparred with the press over the children being pulled from their families when they tried to enter the United States and declare asylum. The policy has \u201cbeen on the books for over a decade,\u201d Sanders said. It hasn\u2019t. The \u201cpolicy\u201d was enacted as a result of President Donald Trump\u2019s \u201cno-tolerance policy\u201d he wrote into an executive order.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese people have nothing. They come to the border with nothing, and they throw children in cages,\u201d reporter Brian Karem said to Sanders. \u201cYou\u2019re a parent; you\u2019re a parent of young children. Don\u2019t you have any empathy for what they go through?\u201d<\/p>\n

Sanders told Karem to \u201csettle down\u201d and accused him of wanted to get on camera.<\/p>\n

Reporter Brian Karem repeatedly asks Sarah Sanders about the Trump policy of separating undocumented children from their parents: \u201cCome on, Sarah, you\u2019re a parent. Don\u2019t you have any empathy?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cCredibility issues are just getting more obvious, and reporters are getting really frustrated with it, and it\u2019s causing tension,\u201d a White House reporter told Politico<\/a>. \u201cIt\u2019s sort of coming to a head. The statements are more disprovable, more obvious.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
