21. She's who Forbes aimed its warning about employing known professional liars about

more than anyone:

Chief content officer and editor of wealth publication Forbes, Randall Lane, said businesses that choose to hire any of the outgoing president’s officials will have all future communications assumed to be lies.

“Let it be known to the business world: Hire any of Trump’s fellow fabulists... and Forbes will assume that everything your company or firm talks about is a lie. We’re going to scrutinize, double-check, investigate with the same skepticism we’d approach a Trump tweet,” Randall wrote in the article titled ‘A Truth Reckoning: Why We’re Holding Those Who Lied For Trump Accountable’.

“Want to ensure the world’s biggest business media brand approaches you as a potential funnel of disinformation? Then hire away.”

Lane said the attack on the US Capitol Building last Wednesday was the result of a years’ long misinformation campaign, and that Trump’s officials don’t deserve to be spared from the fall-out.

He said the press secretaries are the worst, but Trump's lawyers need to be assumed to be professional liars too.
