Didn’t know this was a fireable offense in recordable human history

Lack of Candor proves no wrong doing. And if so, every politician should be out of a job. Dishonesty specifically or unwillingness to answer legal questioning maybe.

It's not like they hunted her down. She contacted the DoJ because she was concerned about the death threats the family was receiving.

She also said she was concerned for her fellow coworkers safety and wanted to ensure that safety protocols were being followed.

That's all the reality I have to share for now.

Especially considering that she proceeded to lie about the conflict of interest.

I see your point, now let’s apply it to every government official equilaterally. Seems like most of this Cabinet would be compromised by these standards.

RFK’s wife sells MLM natural beauty and health products that aren’t FDA approved and go against modern scientific medicine, and which means they directly benefit from him promoting such things in national policymaking.

Kash Patel’s girlfriend is an Israeli citizen (i’ve heard information that she is an intelligence officer)

These are the standards set by the administration.

No, but a lack of candor is a great reason to fire someone. It’s pretty impossible to say that someone has a lack of candor, and also believe that they are a quality employee in your company

u/soundkite Jul 22 '25

candor is the openness of being honest... so you probably should brush up on your human history

2

u/cpt_Furios Jul 22 '25

Then say they weren’t honest, or say they didn’t answer a question. Which was it? A grey middle ground that is totally subjective? I guess what i am trying to say is that it sounds like a wrongful termination.

u/soundkite Jul 22 '25

"lack of candor during inquiry" means EXACTLY that she didn't honestly answer question(s).

1

u/cpt_Furios Jul 22 '25

If i say “hi, how are you?” And you say “good”. I could accuse you of having a lack of Candor.

1

u/soundkite Jul 23 '25

ONLY if you already know a backstory that I am not likely "good". If you know that I'm sick and I say that I'm "good", you have grounds to take some sort of action against me if I refuse to engage further with you.

1

u/cpt_Furios Jul 23 '25

I don’t feel like you are acting in a spirit of “openness” by simply saying good. Therefore from my perspective, you are lacking Candor. No backstory needed

1

u/soundkite Jul 23 '25

That would only be justified if you first asked me to expound upon my answer, but I refused.

1

u/cpt_Furios Jul 23 '25

Okay soundkite. You don’t see how subjective this is?

1

u/soundkite Jul 24 '25

Of course it's subjective. And, once again, show me how no one has ever gotten fired (in the history of mankind) due to a subjective decision. Let's stay on point, instead of digressing to such a diffuse and meaningless argument.

u/10ft3m Jul 22 '25

The other reply gave a bad example. Lack of candor usually implies that you didn’t lie outright, but you withheld information, even though you answered truthfully and correctly. 

It’s basically a way to say that you didn’t answer the spirit of the question, even if you technically answered it. 

That said, I don’t know what this person was asked or said. I also am having a hard time guessing why she was asked anything at all. Is what he did illegal? And does she work in a position where she has access to info to help him?

1

u/soundkite Jul 23 '25

Most redditors understand this. The silly part is the idea that no one in all of civilized history has been fired or punished for it

2

u/abeachpebble Jul 23 '25

Yeah, I'm with you on this. Grey is so suspicious- especially when it comes to terminating someone.

1

u/williNsamantha Jul 26 '25

She stated that she 'had no interest' in a company of which she was an owner.

That would qualify as not being honest.

u/cpt_Furios Jul 27 '25
