YOU'RE FIRED! Clinton pal loses job for anti-cop MELTDOWN
2018-04-26
[TheHornNews] Showing off her gold commissioner’s badge and bragging about her political influence during a profanity-laced tirade at two police officers, a hotshot Democratic lobbyist with deep political connections bit off more than she could chew.

That behavior may work in the Washington, D.C. swamp ‐ but it won’t work with beat cops.

Video of Caren Turner’s reaction to her daughter’s routine traffic stop over Easter weekend went viral on Tuesday ‐ and it’s a distrubing glimpse into the contempt Democrats have for our police. Turner, who was formally a chairwoman of Hillary Clinton’s election finance committee, was swiftly fired from her position at the New York / New Jersey Port Authority after public outcry over her behavior.



In the video, Turner belittled the officers and demanded they tell her why her car was being pulled over and being impounded. She attempted to intimidate the two Tenafly officers with her political connections. She complained that their stop had "ruined" her holiday weekend and that she would be calling the police commissioner personally.

The officers didn’t flinch ‐ and after the video was released following media requests, Turner was forced to resign as head of the Government and Ethics committee and Port Authority’s Operations committee.

Turner is a top Democratic lobbyist that is shuttled between Washington, D.C. and her home in Tenafly, New Jersey, one of the wealthiest areas of the country. She was appointed to the high ranking Port Authority job after Democratic pressure on former Gov. Chris Christie to put more women in top positions.

Yeah, still the urge to tase her just a little bit must have been nearly overwhelming. The boys did good.

#12  On top of all that she's a total dumbass for never suspecting there might be a video that would go viral on the Internet. It is highly amusing.

#10  A definite case where "if you aren't doing anything wrong, you have nothing to hide." Hence unrecorded FBI interviews...

#8  Heinlein's definition of the left. The creep who wants to keep to himself and be left alone (right wing whacko) makes a better neighbor.

#7  Yep. The mask comes off and you can see them for the narcissistic tyrants they are. They want to run your health care, take your money and keep you powerless and dependent on them and you will love them for it!

#5  Are you sure that's not a Hillary clone? Cause aside from the height, that looks like a Hillary clone.

#4  There must be some way Ms. Truner can get her job back:

Cough, cough.....sworn depositions regarding Clinton and democratic fund raising, names, dates, events, places, that sort of thing.
