Forbes editor issues warning to companies intending to hire Trump officials: 'We'll assume everything you talk about is a lie'

, Forbes — the American business magazine — has issued a warning to companies hoping to hire former officials from President Donald Trump's administration.

In the article titled 'A Truth Reckoning: Why We're Holding Those Who Lied For Trump Accountable,' Lane reflected on theThe easiest way for American democracy to recover from the insurrection, he wrote, is to "create repercussions for those who don't follow the civic norms."

There is a credibility problem that makes trumps staff a non hire

Forbes does not take a strong enough stand on this. IF ANY COMPANY HIRES A KNOWN GOP VOTER WE MUST PRESSURE ALL OF THEIR MANAGEMENT THROUGH LINKEDIN, FACEBOOK TWITTER ETC. AND GET THEM ALL FIRED, PULL THEIR FINANCING AND FORCE THE BUSINESS TO SHUT DOWN

Forbes action threatening action is deplorable. If I were any of their targets I would file defamation lawsuit against their targeting them for political reasons. No employer has the right to prevent hiring based on political affiliation.

They were paid to lie. Now its, 'Liar 4 Hire'

First thing he does when gets out is to cancel his subscription to Forbes.

It is truthful, special the one who is in the house of people now

You better not do that. Could come back bite you in the butt.

I hope all companies take a very long look at the potential cost and the damage to their reputation for hiring the people from the Trump administration who have perpetually lied to the world.

montazer_a Thank you Forbes.

iamLucretiaMott I wouldn’t trust them to scrub toilets.

😂🤣 Forbes editor hasn’t been paying attention if they think kayleighmcenany will have trouble finding another job

So true. Enough is Enough. The lies have been exhausting.

Well, if this isn't profiling, what is?

oscura56 Kayleigh gave me directions to a Manhattan restaurant and I ended up in Guam. THEY LIE ABOUT EVERYTHING.

Chuckmeg

This right here is a complete lie.

So, if your a Trump supporter then you should be employed? 🖕🏻

With this announcement, Forbes is definitely aiding SOCIALISM.

thank you from AZ

There were abt 74/5 million people who voted for Trump & Biden 81 mil difference of abt 6/7 mil people. Out of 74 mil people no one will hire them!!!

Business is war (Japanese proverb). My defensive view: Business CAN be turned to war by hostile Homeland. Hired ex Stasi staff as lets say normal safety staff. Requirements: loyality & best references & required skills. Trump staff lacks all.

America the land of the free how have you sunk this low ? Proud to lose your freedom because of your demonic hatred of a president who put his country first and achieved so much for his country. Shame shame shame

Well, you know what happens when you assume things.

You forgot to include a picture of the most pompous of them all Huckabee Sanders!

Future FoxNews or OAN Propagandists.

If i was hiring, i would not hire any Trump official. Simple as that. They are not to be trusted.

This is communist way 101 make it difficult for people that don't agree with your side of things, they also took 75 million people freedom of speech, how can this not be communist

Well, we do not know if they can do anything else! Is what does!

I live in CA, and why are you information gathering about a simple “Do Not Sell My Information” request. Shame on you.

Yep

Well yea there income and torture tactics would be prevented if they didn’t.

Sounds like slander & defemation of character... Attorneys are being contacted and ligation soon I'm guessing

Well, they deserve redemption. Huckabee(Sarah)probably working somewhere.

idagarrett McEnany smartly married a MLB pitcher, so she’ll likely be set financially. The thought of her waiting tables at a Trump hotel coffee lounge was too good to be true, but I can still dream. She’ll be that obnoxious PTA parent Iike Gwendolyn on Bad Moms.

Turnabout is fair play💋

The fact that any person would wish to work for Trump is a big red flag.

Some serious 50's vibes in here.

All these people will have jobs. Let’s not be naive. It’s a shame too.

YES FORBES!

Awesome!

m_hostage As they should.

Safe bet.

YES

SOverlayPro

It's open war by left morons on freedoms. Freedom of speech. Of employment all will fall drastically under demented Joe and Dayan Kamla.

Take a gander at this piece of work, and tell me you'll anyone from the Administration?

This is excellent to hear! kayleighmcenany KellyannePolls ... the TRUTH tellers lol 🤣

Does this mean that Trump won't be on the Forbes list of richest people? OK, well maybe he'll be on Time.. oh nah, that's Biden & Harris. Hmm! Maybe we can bring back Mad Magazine?

Bashing Trump is.... Bad Choices, Bad Results, Pay Dearly for a Long Time!

HansMeyer360 They will all find gainful employment in Russia or Saudi Arabia.

Heidi_Maed_It Unbelievable the industries that have paid these traitors for their vote. They have actually showed some kind of sympathy for the American people, not. Sympathy that we don’t get national health care system. This pandemic shows how out dated and vulnerable of our current system

Good move calling out the liars

Would you like fries with that?

Wacipi So they’ll all be employees at Fox News in a few weeks?

Wacipi American needs to use the tools them have to show how treasonous this administration has been whether it's public shaming, calling them out at every chance, banishment, boycotts, constant reminders of Jan. 6th with photos, etc.

The digital iron curtain is here to stay for the Big Brother. Together, elite communism will rule the world soon due to the collusion between the Deep States around the world and China CCP!

Alternate facts lol.

TacereSol Damn!

Forbes is right. There has to be some consequences.

This is what's just wrong with the world Kayleigh Macadamia nut who lies like ppl breathe, will get another high paying job maybe even in government, most likely without even interviewing, some corporation will just say come on over we'll kick someone out of their office!

Action has consequences. You don’t need to commit the crime but you are just as guilty if you are involved. Happens all the time.

Well this is pretty darn amazing and awesome!

dpakman it’s what u been sayin my guy

Yes. The woman in the middle studied at Oxford and has a degree from Harvard Law. How will she ever find a job?

Forbes Pass

That's big resume energy coming from Forbes

The companies are free to do whatever they wish. The warning is correct. Those individuals drew a paycheck on the lies they were able to tell. NO one should ever trust them.

Seems legit and logic.

😂 Hopefully they will never be taken seriously.

Yes! The consequences must be real and immediate.

Daaaamn!

Who is paying repdavidkustoff to subvert the vote in Pennsylvania? His number one donor just happens to own a major trucking company in PA.

I will never never do any business, nor will I purchase any goods or services that associate with your company. I am only one person, but taking away the freedom of speech, and target folks for being republican is reprehensible, and quite frankly communist.

the editor can not stop any company from hiring people that work for the president that would be a major lawsuit, Forbes is liberal own and ran

That’s the truth

IBM IBMWatson already hired one. I'm encouraging all to let them know how you feel about hiring insurrection supporters Mr. Cohn.

I'll still hire any of them. We need someone to shovel shit (literally). They'd never be in a position of influence, but perfect fits to be shit-wranglers on minimum wage.

And we assume everything you say is a lie. I hear and see one thing and media gaslights me to say I saw something else....you are failing and destroying your credibility and trust.

Note that Forbes is also a right wing loon. But apparently he still has SOME standards.

lifeafterdawn Wow

Talk about authoritarians.

American Democracy. Look at you new Pres and what the new Vice pres said about him

We’re paying for our own demise by buying every day essential items we need/want from those who do not have our best interest at heart, but I guess that’s life

Why would anyone care?

WOW I never thought I would EVER be impressed with Forbes.

100 percent bias.

No one who hopes to be or stay successful, will hire them. They are proven liars and worms and can’t be trusted. They are relegated to far right jobs. Of which, the plumb jobs are limited and don’t pay much.

Let them work at McDonalds or Ross. They betrayed America.

Anyone who worked under the trump administration should never be allowed to work going forward. Any company that hires them should be boycotted !

Yep

He's assuming that what Trump officials said was a lie and that is delusional. Does anyone read or take Forbes seriously anymore?

dtsegs BWAhahahah! Payback is so sweet! You don't even have to assume since everything they've said for years was a lie.

sciencebetty They have zero credibility other than knowing that whatever they say, the opposite is TRUTH. kellyanneconway KayleighMcEnany BillBarr seanspicer stevenmnuchin bradparscale BillStepien ...the list is long

They should never work in media or journalism again. boycottstandbackandstandby

I don't think the cultists quite understand how significant Wednesday was and how many normal Americans were repulsed by it. The Trump family, and their associates are American poison now. Whatever you choose to believe is cool, but Trump's final downfall began on Wednesday.

Forbes

They can’t be trusted

If they could only have companies pull their ads from Fox opinion news and other platforms spreading lies and igniting hate.

Dude..podcasters make more money. And it's free... music labels and news networks are dead.

What does Sean Spicer do nowadays?

America is F***ed. Tribal.Disintegrating. Each tribe with their own set of special lists of people to cancel. Works both ways and innocent people get caught in the cross fire. Meanwhile China and Russia are thinking👇🏻. So pull yourself together you American idiots! All the best😊

Yes, what a great idea! Let’s cancel people’s future careers and life solely based on their beliefs.. 🤦🏼‍♂️

Absolutely. These 3 are a big part of the lies time and again to further Trump's authoritarianism.

As many Americans already do believe with the main media and Dems. How is the Biden bribes showing us anything different? Let's not forget Hillary

TheTitan412 hettrhole00

2 I cant wait for the day I never have to see kaleigh mackanany's face again.

Way to promote the First Amendment by purging Americans from the public square!!! Our founding fathers are rolling over in their graves!!!

Marmel .erikkain, will you please give RandallLane a big wet sloppy kiss for me? THIS is how the Fourth Estate performs it's critical role in the maintenance and upkeep of a healthy Democracy.

Makes sense to me. They are paid professional liars. They lie to the American people for a living. They will lower the public credibility of any organization they represent.

Hysteric

Oh elon & murdoch will hire them he stands with murdoch morgfair RBReich

America is watching.

Absolutely- no credibility!

Disgusting cancel culture at it again.

Trump News Network might not even hire them.

How could you even rely on the references they provide? And what would they put on their resume? Oh well my main objective was supporting the demise of democracy? Of course you can’t trust these people!

Womp Womp

Incredible

God I love a FreePress

Donald Trump and his Complicit Supporters need to have a Constitutional Straight Jacket custom made for each of them immediately!

Finally consequences

I'd say this is true with anybody that wanted Trump re-elected.

KellyannePolls kayleighmcenany seanspicer SarahHuckabee shame on you

Four days later and not one person, let alone any Republican has apologized for what has happened. Even terrorism expert Richard Clarke said he was sorry for 9-11. Any Republican who truly cares about unity should especially apologize for the Big Lie right about now.

Let ‘em flip burgers that’ll teach them to tell the truth!!

Ordinary people have been boycotted for far less

Check Venezuelan Tascon list. Basically this list prevented to get a job again after signing to start a process to remove Chávez from power. Many of them get asylum in the US for political reason. Is that what u want in America? How can we call it, the Forbes list or Pelosi list?

This should be a real website tracking all Trumps enablers. The company or organization that employs them should be flagged and blacklisted immidiately. I believe it would will be the most effective deterrent for any future sycophants considering similar actions.

That would be quite a threat 20 years ago when Forbes still competed with other physically printed magazines and newspapers. Now that the internet has commoditized their product, a “warning” from RandallLane is the height of deluded self-importance.

Facts and truth matter.

Great Job Forbes.....Stand Up for your country!

Great idea !

Tainted name

Trump: Be grateful for my lies.

Hahaha someone will be unemployed for a while

the woke left is truly evil.

Quite interesting...none expected the repucussions... 🤔
