BREAKING: US Office of Special Counsel Recommends Kellyanne Conway Be Removed From Office For Hatch Act Violations.. ( Full title)..

The US Office of Special Counsel said in a report given to President Trump on Thursday that his counselor Kellyanne Conway has repeatedly violated the Hatch Act and recommended her removal from federal service.

The Hatch Act bars federal employees from engaging in political activity.

“The U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC) calls on President Donald J. Trump to remove Ms. Conway from her federal position immediately,” the agency wrote in a letter to the White House. “[K]ellyanne Conway violated the Hatch Act on numerous occasions by disparaging Democratic presidential candidates while speaking in her official capacity during television interviews and on social media,” the letter stated.

disparaging Democratic presidential candidates while speaking in her official capacityThat's hilarious and ridiculous. As if NOBODY else ever did that, especially in the Obama administrations.

Men like George Conway have low self-worth, low self-esteem and feelings of inadequacy when they are upstaged by their more successful and famous wives.

IOW, George is a weak, cowardly effeminate pussy.

The Honorable Henry Kerner
United States Office of Special Counsel
1730 M Street, NW, Suite 218
Washington, DC 20036

Dear Special Counsel Kerner:

I write to submit an initial response to the draft Office of Special Counsel Rep01t concerning Assistant to the President and Counselor to the President Kellyanne Conway, OSC File
Nos. HA-19-0631 & HA-19-3395, dated May 30, 2019 (”Repo1t”). OSC’s draft Report is based on multiple fundamental legal and factual errors, makes unfair and unsupported claims against a close adviser to the President, is the product of a blatantly unfair process that ignored statutory notice requirements, and has been influenced by various inappropriate considerations...

“The US Office of Special Counsel demanded Pres Trump remove Kellyanne Conway from her federal position immediately.
Conway is accused of violating the Hatch Act on numerous occasions:
<><> she disparaged Democratic presidential candidates
<><> she was speaking in her official capacity.

============================================

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi has done this numerous times, in her official capacity as Speaker of The House.

On one visit to Mexico, Speaker Pelosi
<><>mixed US foreign policy,
<><> Democrat politics,
<><> demeaned American citizens, and,
<><> disparaged a presidential candidate (Trump).

======================================

ON MEXICAN SOIL, PELOSI SLAMS CANDIDATE TRUMP TO MEXICAN GOVT OFFICIALS

CIRCA 2016-Speaker Pelosi in Mexico telling Mexican officials Trump is speaking to an "insecure minority,"
who maybe lost their job and think it was because of immigration, or trade. I think it's putting too much weight on all this."
" (Candidate) Trump only has one half of one half, 25%," Speaker Pelosi emphasized to Mexican officials.

NOTE WELL: TRUMP GOT ELECTED BY 63 MILLION AMERICANS)

The 2016 Congressional delegation to Mexico also included Democrat Reps. Norma Torres, Lucille Roybal-Allard, Pete Aguilar and Linda Sanchez (Calif.); Senate candidate Beto O'Rourke and Henry Cuellar (Texas); Ruben Gallego (Ariz.); Michelle Lujan Grisham (N.M.); and Republicans Michael Fitzpatrick (Pa.) and Richard Hanna (N.Y.).

======================================

PELOSI PLEDGED HER UNDYING LOYALTY TO MEXICO--and demeaned American citizens and candidate Trump to Mexican officials

=================================

BACKSTORY In 2016 Speaker Pelosi brought a Congressional delegation to Mexico City to meet with Mexican dignitaries. Speaker Pelosi told the Mexican president and his entourage: “We come here as a large delegation to express our respect for the people of Mexico and the country of Mexico; to acknowledge our shared border and our shared values and to learn more about how we can work together for the bright future for not only our two countries but for our hemisphere.”

Pelosi later said the Congressional delegation had a busy time in Mexico City. “We heard a sermon on the importance of workers in Mexico, a view we share. We’ve met with members of the American Chamber of Commerce. We had a very beneficial meeting with Director General Zapata on the subject of the economy and on the subject of TPP (trade pact) especially.

"And then we had a glorious meeting, a really very thorough exchange of subjects and views – again about our shared values and our shared border – with the President [of Mexico]......with Members of the Federal Deputies – Mexican Federal Deputies – and Senators. And in the evening we had a dinner meeting with the Mexican Foreign Minister,” Pelosi said.

=================================

Well, here we have an agency that is begging to be:

SHUT DOWN!

What a waste. The word sinecure comes to mind.

I believe the Hatch Act applies only to employees of the executive branch. The President and Vice-President, and “certain other” employees in the executive branch are exempt, and I don’t believe the law applies to congresscritters.

I Agree & I wonder if the house is seething with tension. Or maybe she’s so used to it that she just rolls on. I just cannot imagine someone humiliating their spouse in such a public way.

I’m sure it’s very tense in that home. I really can’t imagine it being any other way. For her, maybe this job is her escape from it all but of course, the kids suffer.

I’d hate to think that’s the reason but you may be right.
