WH Press Sec Stephanie Grisham claims Obama aides left 'you will fail" notes in offices for Trump aides: “We came into the WH, I’ll tell you something. Every office was filled with Obama books and we had notes left behind that said ‘you will fail,’ ‘you aren’t going to make it,’”

1. LOL! Anything to distract.

[malaise]

2. I don't believe this

but if this happened it was fucking prescient

[NightWatcher]

3. You're saying they were so wise to see this dumpster fire coming?

Yes, yes they were. Your problem?

[PCIntern]

4. Gee this reminds me of the "vandalism" of

The Clinton folks which turned out to be utter bullshit

[Blue_Tires]

27. +1

The old "CLINTON STAFFERS STOLE THE 'W' OFF ALL THE KEYBOARDS!" all over again...

I guess 18 years is long enough for some people to forget.

[underpants]

32. And there was pornography everywhere

First thing I thought of too.

[crickets]

44. Exactly. It's high school slam book level BS. nt

[Thunderbeast]

5. This kind of prank is not new.

Bill Clinton's team removed every "W" from computer keyboards on their way out.

Childish....yes.
Sinister....probably not.

[jberryhill]

20. That's a lie

That is a lie which was promulgated by the Bush team.

I am surprised to see it repeated here.

[bullwinkle428]

6. OFFS. Shrub's people tried this shit when the Clinton admin. was leaving.

Karl Rove was swearing up and down that it was true, and there wasn't a single piece of evidence to prove it.

[Hav]

12. And the bogus investigation into that

cost way, way more than the actual damage which was mostly regarded as the consequences of normal, daily use.

[jberryhill]

21. Look up thread

[BumRushDaShow]

37. THIS - the so-called "missing 'W' keys"

[Roland99]

7. So they were left behind and she just noticed them, three years later???

[global1]

8. Come On Now - They Waited Three Years To Spring This One On Us?.....

You know if this was true - we would have heard about this the day that they moved into the WH - not now - three years later.

[Hortensis]

15. :) Yes.

[treestar]

38. Absolutely

Nice try, Stephanie.

[gratuitous]

41. You put it that way, it sounds bad

But, see, these notes were, like, totally camouflaged by being on books, and nobody in the Trump administration ever looks at let alone reads a book. But some free-lancing staffer finally opened a book this week, and lo and behold, they found these horrible, terrible, no good, very bad notes.

[NewJeffCT]

9. LOL

how come Sean Spicer and SHS never made that claim? Are we sure it's not notes from Sanders on her way out?

[Ohiogal]

33. Hahaha!

[MrsCoffee]

10. That's what happens when you let people like Ted Nugent, Sarah Palin and Kid Rock loose in the WH.

[Baltimike]

11. YAAAAAAAAAAAAWN nt

[Arazi]

13. Provide proof or it didn't happen

[tavernier]

18. They're probably scribbling away on note pads as we speak,

providing “evidence”...

[DURHAM D]

14. Wasn't she still trying to get her GED three years ago? nt

[jcgoldie]

16. Well the Obama aides nailed that one didn't they?

I still like the Bush folks whining that Clinton stole all the W's off the keyboards. Angry Democrats!

[tanyev]

22. And it was all bullshit.

Now it seems those closely detailed stories were largely bunk. Last week it was revealed that a formal review by the General Accounting Office, Congress' investigative agency, "had found no damage to the offices of the White House's East or West Wings or EOB" and that Bush's own representatives had reported "there is no record of damage that may have been deliberately caused by the employees of the Clinton administration."

While cautious GSA staffers won't issue a blanket exoneration of the Clinton team, Bernard Ungar, the agency's director of physical infrastructure, told Salon the media clearly exaggerated the extent of the damage. According to the terse GSA statement that formed the basis of Ungar's conclusion, "the condition of the real property was consistent with what we would expect to encounter when tenants vacate office space after an extended occupancy."

Rep. Bob Barr, R-Ga., the ardent Clinton foe who requested the GAO review, has tried to interpret the agency's findings to mean no "record of damage" had been compiled, not that no damage had occurred. But the lack of records "cataloging" any damages -- which Bush press secretary Ari Fleischer promised in January the White House would compile -- would seem to suggest one thing: Widespread acts of vandalism never occurred.

17. :) Obama's high-quality staffers don't express childish taunts

in one-syllable words. Yoooge clues.

Obama's staffers did leave detailed summaries of work performed in their positions and useful data for those coming in, and the clear expectation that successors would be either able to understand or willing to perform their job duties according to ethical standards may have offended. Certainly professional vocabulary and routinely complex sentences wouldn't have helped.

[LuckyCharms]

19. Trump staffers wrote them. They said: You will fale, looser.

[11 Bravo]

23. And you just now found them three years later, right, Steph?

Bullshit.

[Mc Mike]

28. To be fair, they never set foot into their work offices, in the last 3 years. No need.

[11 Bravo]

30. Good point!

[Mc Mike]

34. Crimes are all done in the field.

They only had to break the crypt like seal on the offices because someone misplaced the keys to a getaway car they were gonna use for a bank heist, so they were looking everywhere for them.

You should've seen the clouds of dust that poofed out, when they started opening those doors.

[tblue37]

24. Which letter did they steal out of the computers? What furniture was stolen?

Remember the lies about those things when the Clinton's left?

25. Grisham is a horrible human being - from her wikipedia bio:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephanie_Grisham

Career
In 2007, Grisham was the spokeswoman for AAA Arizona, but was fired within a year after being accused of cheating on expense reports. Grisham was fired from a subsequent job at ad agency Mindspace over plagiarism charges, copying AAA material verbatim into her client's web page.

From 2008 to 2010, Grisham worked as a spokeswoman for the Arizona Charter Schools Association

Then, Grisham served as spokeswoman for Arizona attorney general Tom Horne. She witnessed the badly botched execution of Joseph Wood and caused a scandal by claiming that the two hour ordeal had been "quite peaceful".

Next, Grisham worked as a spokesperson for the Arizona House of Representatives Republican caucus. She revoked the Arizona Capitol Times’s press credentials hours after their reporting that the House speaker, David Gowan, had traveled at state taxpayers’ expense during his campaign for Congress. Reporters refused to comply, and Gowan rescinded the order.

Personal life

<snip>

Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham. In December 2015 in Arizona, Ms. Grisham was arrested for driving under the influence. She pleaded guilty and was fined, and in August 2016 the court ordered her into a treatment program. It was a second offense: In 2013 she was arrested for driving under the influence, speeding and driving with an invalid license.

In January 2013 in Gilbert, Maricopa County, Arizona. Grisham was pulled over for speeding while behind the wheel of an SUV. The officer observed Grisham's signs of intoxication and she failed a field sobriety test. Grisham denied consuming any alcohol, but said she had taken a Xanax 90 minutes earlier and a Zoloft the prior night. A blood test revealed Grisham’s blood alcohol content to be .105 percent which exceeds the .08 legal limit in Arizona. Grisham was offered, and accepted, a plea bargain agreement that reduced the charge to reckless driving.

In December 2015, Gilbert was arrested in Arizona by the Phoenix Police. Grisham failed to appear at her court hearing in January 2016, whereupon a City Court judge issued a warrant for her arrest. Grisham pleaded guilty to DUI and was ordered to pay about $1600 in court costs and fines. Grisham’s July 2016 conviction occurred while she was working as a press aide for President Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign.

26. This woman is making old Sarah Hucklebuckle look like a freaking saint

She not only lies, she lies with malice.

[BlueStater]

29. You're doing an excellent job proving them right then.

Cry harder.

[catbyte]

31. Pathetic. They wait 3 years to complain about this and, coincidentally, right when they're in deep

shit and need something, anything, to distract the American people from the clusterfuck in the Oval Office.

[SKKY]

35. If this were true, don't you think it would have come out by now?

These people must have a shit load of spaghetti. They just keep throwing it against the wall, hoping something sticks.

[2naSalit]

36. Took three years to come up with this recycled BS....nt

[RhodeIslandOne]

39. "You will get another DUI"

Right, Stephanie?

[NewDayOranges]

40. Even if true... So what?!?!?!

[onenote]

42. And Sean Spicer wrote a book and didn't mention this?

Grisham is so bad she can't even come up with remotely credible lies.

[onethatcares]

43. first they came for the light switches

then they found the "Post-it notes"

[demmiblue]

45. !

46. Valerie Jarrett: My completely empty office on the morning of January 20, 2017. No Obama books...

My completely empty office on the morning of January 20, 2017. No Obama books. No mean note. Ask @KellyannePolls who moved into my old office how she was treated by me.
