Report: Trump adviser's husband picked for Justice post

Mar. 18, 2017 7:16 PM EDT

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump has chosen the husband of White House counselor Kellyanne Conway to head the civil division of the Justice Department, The Wall Street Journal reported.

George Conway was chosen to head the office that has responsibility for defending the administration's proposed travel ban and defending lawsuits filed against the administration, the newspaper reported.

Conway is a partner at the New York law firm of Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz. The law firm's website says Conway has extensive experience in litigation involving securities, mergers and acquisitions, contracts and antitrust cases. He graduated from Harvard and then Yale Law School. He joined the law firm in 1988, soon after his graduation from law school

The White House and the Justice Department would not confirm the pick Saturday. George Conway declined to comment.

2. Photographed

[LOL Lib]

3. To quote John Wayne:

"This shit is gettin' to be ri-goddamn-diculous!"

[Ilsa]

4. This isn't right.

Not with KAC in the WH and then going to bed with a Justice Dept exec. It would be inappropriate because of how information could flow between the two offices as a back channel, colluding in their criminality.

5. Stacking The Deck - Thumb On The Scale....

rigged.

[Ilsa]

6. But will the Senate committee do anything about it?

The only benefit is seeing both of them taken down along with Herr Drump when the shit hits the fan and they are both unemployed.
