Former White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders may have resigned from her post at the end of last month, but the loyalty to her former boss hasn't wavered at all, judging from a series of tweets Sanders posted today.
Her words came during Special Counsel Robert Mueller's hotly-anticipated hearings before the House Judiciary and Intelligence Committees regarding his 400+ page report regarding Russian interference into the 2016 election and President Donald Trump's efforts to obstruct Mueller's investigation.
Sanders slipped into her old role of Trump propagandist flawlessly:
As with many of Sanders's statements, virtually none of this is true.
In his report and today's hearings, Mueller repeatedly testified that the report doesn't exonerate the president. What's more, he said that the president could be charged once he's out of office.
As for Mueller "admit[ting] all along that this was a witch hunt," he literally said the exact opposite in no uncertain terms.
During her interview with Special Counsel investigators, Huckabee Sanders admitted to lying to the press about "countless FBI officials" having lost confidence in then-FBI director James Comey. The confession is stated in the report.
People weren't surprised by her tweets today.
The only difference between Sanders's lies today and those said during her tenure is that now she's lying for free.
