Discussion: Pat Cipollone Expected To Replace McGahn As White House Counsel

just another example of sonny’s bad judgement

This is about stopping the Mueller probe. And maybe also about persecuting people on Spanky’s Enemies List.

While the political bias notes are important, what jumps out most to me is that – while McGahn was steeped in Washington politics and policy – Cipollone is a litigator. He’s the guy you hire to bring down your opponents, to tie the hands of government, and to thwart the machinery of justice.

He’s the legal equivalent of a state executioner.

McGahn said he’d gotten a lot of positive feedback as a “totally-convincing Kavanaugh look-alike” that he will be pursuing a career “covering” the Justice at frat parties, bachelotette parties and the piano lounges of senior centers in Florida.

But where’s Rudy Giuliani? Suspiciously silent and out of reach.

Admitted to Bellevue?

WHERE’S RUDY?!?

But it sounds like Trump still doesn’t quite get that this is not his personal attorney.

Maybe the best headline of the year riffing on a A Whiter Shade of Pale. Oh oh, I’ve dated myself.

Scaramucci skips the trite fandango

I hope Cipollone enjoys working pro bono.
