<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">In January 2015, Isgur Flores took up the communications position with Carly Fiorina’s super PAC,</span> <a href="https://www.upleadership.org/meet-carly" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Unlocking Potential</a><span style="color: #808080;">.</span></p>

<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">After Fiorina dropped out of the presidential race, Isgur Flores spoke with MSNBC about the potential for a convention challenge to Donald Trump, saying, <strong>“I will certainly hope for a contested convention, and if not I hope that someone will offer an alternative.”</strong> According to the Daily Caller, Isgur Flores also said that her disapproval of Trump was based on her belief in conservatism: <strong>“For a lot of us, this isn’t about party. This isn’t about winning for the sake of winning for our team. This is about our country. And it’s about a belief system. And I’m a conservative before I’m a Republican.”</strong></span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">Beginning in mid-December 2016, Isgur Flores advised Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), Donald Trump’s nominee for U.S. Attorney General as part of his preparation for confirmation hearings in the U.S. Senate.</span><br />

<p>And now, Isgur Flores is “Director of Public Affairs at the Department of Justice” under Attorney General Jeff Sessions.</p>
<p>If loyalty is a prerequisite to a post in the Trump Administration, how did THIS happen?</p>

<p>We’ve always had issues with Reince Priebus being installed as President Trump’s chief of staff because many of the RNC fat-and-comfortable types would be absorbed into the administration and many of them were vocal adversaries of the Republican party nominee during the campaign.</p>
<p>And for some strange reason, Sarah Isgur Flores has appeared to have purged her Tweets prior to July 27, 2016, possibly so she could pass a background check to get into the Trump Administration. If her views were so “conservative” and “principled”, why aren’t they here for all to see anymore?</p>
<p><a class="cb-lightbox fs-lightbox-element" title="The end of Sarah Isgur Flores' Twitter feed" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/Sarah-Isgur-Flores-Twitter-page.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-112634 size-full" title="The end of Sarah Isgur Flores' Twitter feed" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/Sarah-Isgur-Flores-Twitter-page.png" sizes="auto, (max-width: 551px) 100vw, 551px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/Sarah-Isgur-Flores-Twitter-page.png 551w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/Sarah-Isgur-Flores-Twitter-page-150x64.png 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/Sarah-Isgur-Flores-Twitter-page-500x212.png 500w" width="551" height="234" /></a><br />
The president also needs to question Priebus’ contributions to his administration, especially those who’ve fought against his campaign and nomination who’ve been comfortable in the swamp that is now seeping into the White House.</p>
<p>Think about it: if for some reason Jeff Sessions were removed as AG, who would be next in line for consideration? Ted Cruz? Wouldn’t that be cozy!</p>
<h2><span style="color: #ff9900;">UPDATE</span></h2>
<p>Months after Jeff Sessions&#8217; departure from the DOJ, Sarah decided it was time to ask for another job.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><span style="color: #808080;">2/19/19:</span> <a href="https://www.vox.com/2019/2/19/18231993/cnn-gop-operative-2020-election-coverage" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">CNN hires GOP operative with no journalism experience to coordinate its 2020 coverage</a></strong></p>
<p>Interesting how many &#8220;journalists&#8221; we currently have who were initially hired with no broadcast experience, but now standards must be observed. Given the liberal outrage, Sarah&#8217;s terms have been modified&#8230;.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><span style="color: #808080;">3/8/19:</span> <a href="https://variety.com/2019/tv/news/sarah-isgur-flores-revises-role-cnn-1203158798/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Sarah Isgur Flores Revises Planned Role at CNN</a></strong></p>
<p>So, now she&#8217;s going to be an &#8220;analyst&#8221; which is a nice way of saying she&#8217;s going to be asked what she thinks, she&#8217;ll get to blab, and as long as she sticks it to President Trump, she&#8217;ll be just fine.</p>
<p>Like they say in sports, &#8220;Do what got you there.&#8221;</p>
