House Dems rip into Sarah Sanders' tenure after Trump announces her departure

Several House Democrats had some harsh words for White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders after President Trump announced her eventual departure at the end of June.

Reps. Don Beyer, D-Va., and Mark Pocan, Wis., both unleashed a series of criticism -- mainly focusing on the accusation that she lied for the president.

"She will be remembered for disgracing her office, ushering in an era of opacity unprecedented in the modern era, publicly treating journalists like dirt, assailing the First Amendment to the Constitution, and lying directly to the American people who paid her salary," Beyer tweeted on Thursday.

Meanwhile, Pocan mocked Trump's tweet describing Sanders as having "extraordinary talents."

"Extraordinary talents including lying, lying with a straight face, defending the President's lies, dodging questions, falsely claiming ignorance, not holding daily press briefings, and...lying," he tweeted.
