Sarah Sanders to receive Secret Service protection

White House press secretary Sarah Sanders is expected to receive Secret Service protection as soon as Wednesday, two sources familiar with the decision tell CNN, but they did not specify how long it will last.

The Secret Service declined to comment, telling CNN: "For operational security purposes the Secret Service does not comment on its protective operations."

A SS detail is potentially disruptive and off-putting both to employees and other customers.

She can get kicked out of stores and restaurants with or without bodyguards.
No one has to put up with these baby cagers.

Now that the alleged president has been revealed as the Chupacabra and the Ninth Commandment has filed for divorce from Sarah Huckabee Sanders on grounds of irreconcilability, our attention must turn to Sarah's credibility gap.
The taxpayers aren't getting even a tiny fraction's worth of the lavish sum we overpay to have this woman repeat her boss's lies daily, as she has given up trying to fake plausibility.
But we could try to make her expenditures of used air less worthless by installing a biofeedback version of truth serum in the White House press room:
Every time she mounts the podium she could be fitted with electrodes and a manometer to quantify her respirations, blood pressure, heart rate and galvanic skin response -- a "lie detector" in effect. Coupled with a sophisticated computer program to determine when she's lying and to administer an electric shock proportionate to the size of the whopper, the device should increase the value of her comments, if only by making them extremely rare.
Her alternative to voluntarily submitting to this vetting would be to admit that everything she says is unreliable, and that her job is a total waste of everyone's time and money.
Lest anyone be tempted to think such a technical arrangement would do wonders for her boss, remember that chronic, pathological liars who work for the Russian spy agency pass lie detector tests with depressing regularity.

Maybe some creepy loser named Don has been stalking her and threatening to grab her pussy? Maybe Ted Nugent told her the next time she wants to eat out she can come over to his place and suck his machine gun?

I don't know what she has to deal with

To us they are known as liberals. They are a paranoid bunch, and I sincerely hope that paranoia does them in.

Remember the movie Jacob's Ladder? The military gave troops some mind altering drug that really fucked them over and gave them paranoid delusions for life. Yeah, it seems like that is what is playing out in DC.

They're going to use Maxine Waters as their reasoning and to paint Dems as evil and all that.

SS going to hold her hand in the drive-thru?

If the Golden Arches look threatening can't she just call Mayor McCheese instead?

Surely the orange blowhard could help her navigate the ins and outs of Mickey Dees - Trump's safe place.

She could go to Burger King but maybe the "Home of the Whopper" feels like too much competition.
