Kellyanne Conway Just ‘Disregarded’ The Law, Trump-Appointed Watchdog to Testify
The Trump-appointed ethics official who called for Kellyanne Conway’s firing last week is set to defend that decision in Congressional testimony on Wednesday.
Henry Kerner, the chief of the White House’s Office of Special Counsel, has submitted testimony to the House Committee on Oversight and Reform in which he criticizes Conway for allegedly breaking the law by politicizing her post as White House Counselor.
“Her conduct hurts both federal employees, who may believe that senior officials can act with complete disregard for the Hatch Act, and the American people, who may question the nonpartisan operation of their government,” reads Kerner’s testimony, which The Daily Beast obtained.
