Presidential Rank Award for exceptional performance in her defense of soda. Lol
This lends new connotations to the phrase, "...is Pepsi OK?"
Indeed, the October 1970 plot against Chile's President-elect Salvador Allende, using CIA 'sub-machine guns and ammo', was the direct result of a plea for action a month earlier by Donald Kendall, chairman of PepsiCo, in two telephone calls to the company's former lawyer, President Richard Nixon.
Kendall arranged for the owner of the company's Chilean bottling operation to meet National Security Adviser Henry Kissinger on September 15. Hours later, Nixon called in his CIA chief, Richard Helms, and, according to Helms's handwritten notes, ordered the CIA to prevent Allende's inauguration.

Haha. What is that combination of words?
As a veteran of the Dr Pepper SWAT team I understand the sacrifices she made in a way few else could
It is amazing that she thought she could/should hold on after this
shame has been entirely bred out of the 'elite' class, as long as you never back down and never admit fault you can basically do anything
Secret service is notorious for regular impressive fuck ups. Gonna be funny when that keeps happening even after losing out the scapegoat.
Shout out to the couple that gatecrashed the white house in 2009
just bluffed their way in iirc
This is why you never trust local law enforcement.
It's like the USS went: "Uvalde Police Department? Is that some kind of weird ass speakeasy?"
I'm honestly surprised anyone in our government has been held accountable for fucking up for once
After the lame "that slope was kinda dangerous" excuse I was expecting her to be fired on the spot.
