Sarah Huckabee-Sanders is the daughter of Mike Huckabee, who served from 1996 to 2007 as Arkansas's 44th governor. A member of the Republican Party, Huckabee-Sanders was the 31st White House press secretary, serving under President Donald Trump from 2017 to 2019.
Currently Huckabee-Sanders is serving as the 47th governor of Arkansas since being inaugurated in early 2023.
In June 2023, Sarah went on a lavish "girl's trip" to Paris, France with two friends, Virginia Beckett and Hannah Stone. Beckett is owner of Beckett Events, LLC. Hannah Stone is a planner of the January 6 insurrection.
Also in June 2023, as governor, Huckabee-Sanders purchased a lectern from Beckett’s company for the state of Arkansas using taxpayer money at a cost of just over $19,000.00.
The issue is, Beckett’s company doesn’t sell lecterns, and nobody can find the lectern that Sarah allegedly “bought.” Additionally, Sarah ordered that the invoice for the lectern be doctored in September - long after the purchase - with a deliberately undated note to indicate that the cost of the lectern would be reimbursed. Trouble is, Sarah refuses to show anyone the lectern - probably because it doesn’t exist.
All Sarah can do now is point reporters to a photo of a lectern that purports to be the one she bought. It’s allegedly a photo of a “Falcon” brand custom made lectern. The Falcon company states the photo is of a cheap imitation of one of their products, and in any case, the most expensive custom made lectern that the Falcon company makes costs about $4,500, not $19,000.
Arkansas lawyer and blogger Matt Campbell made a series of public records requests. It was he who first blew the whistle on Sarah and her nefarious purchase. Sarah is now pushing for legislation that would deter people like Matt Campbell from making requests for public records in the first place.
Campbell keeps bringing lawsuits for more documents.
The latest document Mr Campbell found is a bill of lading from the administrative services division of the State of Arkansas. The bill of lading is dated August 4, 2023, two full months after the alleged purchase! Apparently the bill of lading is for an entirely different lectern that somebody is trying to pawn off as the notorious Falcon lectern. The trouble is that the container this new lectern came in is way too small to accommodate the dimensions of the originally “purchased” Falcon lectern.
It's pretty clear that Sarah Huckabee Sanders, a millionaire, stole the money from the state of Arkansas so she could party with her friends. When Matt Campbell went snooping around, Sarah oversaw the manipulation of documents to cover up her theft, including this latest manipulation, using a bill of lading for a different lectern to make us believe it was for the original one she bought, the supposed “Falcon” lectern.
It looks like this emerging scandal will eventually cause Arkansas governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders to be criminally indicted for grand theft, obstruction of justice and documents manipulation.
Arkansas is a poor state. It's taxpayers can ill afford a $19,000 lecture, let alone, one that does not exist.
