Examples of Shockingly in a Sentence

1. Pete Hegseth:

   While this shameful act may be an isolated incident, what’s not isolated are the almost daily reports that feed the perception that VA leadership are detached from the urgent challenges facing returning veterans, but it’s even more troubling that Ms. Paul’s shockingly poor judgment did not merit immediate firing. She should have been fired the minute such poor judgment was discovered and failing to do so only reinforces VA's track record of failing to hold its employees accountable.

2. Sara Cody:

   The pace at which this epidemic is developing is shockingly fast, that means the response has to be so fast -- and it's not.

3. James Scott:

   The disturbingly techno-illiterate and cyber-hygienically lackadaisical and shockingly arrogant responses by the National Association of Secretaries of States when we at ICIT repeatedly showed them what their vulnerabilities were and exactly how elections could be compromised is a betrayal of trust to offer safe and legitimate elections. The technical vulnerabilities littering our election systems is only part of the problem.

4. Sharon McMahon:

   It was just shockingly wrong, like not even a little bit right.

5. Sam Gibson:

   With Michael Sam people felt they wanted to be on the right side of history, but when it comes to the race issue, people misunderstood this movement. It was about a group being ignored and a system president who blamed it on the oppressed, which was shockingly clueless.
