Representative of Donald John TrumpSoros: Fox News refuses to register on the radio. Rihanna swears that her songs will never be read again during Trump's vote on "tragic rallies" mid-way to set the cyber agenda more Monday, on the scene of a rally for the election campaign in Indiana, congratulating their boss and urging voters to support the Senate candidate, Mike Braun (R).
The appearance of Sanders was unusual, as it is not typical of the president's campaign rallies and former press secretaries rarely participated in political events.
"Thanks Indiana, you'll have to forgive Kellyanne and me, maybe we're a little speechless, we're not used to friendly crowds," Sanders told the raucous crowd of 13,000 at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum. .
She then praised the president for his achievements so far, qualifying his role in the Trump administration as "one of the greatest honors of my life".
She did not explicitly mention her title to the White House or Braun in her remarks, an apparent effort to circumvent a federal law prohibiting government employees from campaigning in the exercise of their official duties.
Conway did not waste time directly attacking Braun, Sen's opponent. Joe Donnelly

Joe Donnelly (D). She was also careful to avoid mentioning her role as a member of the White House staff.
"Let me just say personally, because this election is very personal to me, Joe has to go," Conway said. "Let him out."
The appearance of two of Trump's top representatives provoked a frenzy among the crowd, but it also raised ethical concerns that they were using official government jobs to campaign for a candidate, which would constitute a violation of the federal law known as the Hatch Act.

Walter Michael ShaubThe Secretary General could take charge of the investigation into Mueller in case of Rosenstein's exit, the former head of the government's Ethics Office, wrote on Twitter soon after the two women left the scene so White House staff could speak at election rallies without being able to use the titles of their governments.
Many people are stroking me in tweets asking if World Heritage staff can speak at campaign rallies. The answer is yes. What they can not do is use their official titles (for example, "president assistant" or "press officer"). Do not hesitate to leave @CREWcrew, @NormEisen or I know if this happens.

The two women have been the subject of numerous complaints by Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, a surveillance organization, linked to the Hatch law.
The US board of special counsel found in March that Conway had violated the Hatch Act when she had pleaded against Democrat Doug Jones in the Alabama Senate race.
