Top ICE Barbie Goon Failing to Secure New Job

Even conservative media doesn’t want to deal with Tricia McLaughlin’s scandals.

Tricia McLaughlin, the former Department of Homeland Security spokesperson who abruptly left the department last month, is struggling to find a new gig.

McLaughlin has received no job offers in conservative media, despite reaching out to several outlets and being a regular face on right-wing airwaves.

McLaughlin, 31, has reached out to Newsmax and Real America’s Voice about getting a role, but has not received an offer from those channels, according to a report by the Daily Mail.

Despite frequently appearing on Fox News and the channel’s long history of hiring former Trump administration officials, her controversial connections have done little to get her a role there.

The Daily Beast consistently labels current and former Trump administration officials as "goons". I like it.
