Federal watchdog agency recommends removal of Kellyanne Conway from federal office
Source: Washington Post
The Office of Special Counsel has recommended the removal of White House counselor Kellyanne Conway from federal office for violating the Hatch Act, which bars federal employees from engaging in political activity in the course of their work.
The report submitted to President Trump found that 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 counsel said Conway was a repeat offender and recommended that she be removed from federal office.
The Office of Special Counsel is charged with enforcing the Hatch Act and is not to be confused with now-former special counsel Robert S. Mueller III's investigation. The office is run by Henry Kerner, whom Trump nominated to the post.
The White House responded by arguing that the special counsel's actions against Conway "are deeply flawed and violate her constitutional rights to free speech and due process." "Others, of all political views, have objected to the OSC's unclear and unevenly applied rules which have a chilling effect on free speech for all federal employees," deputy White House press secretary Steven Groves said in a statement. "Its decisions seem to be influenced by media pressure and liberal organizations, and perhaps OSC should be mindful of its own mandate to act in a fair, impartial, nonpolitical manner, and not misinterpret or weaponize the Hatch Act."

doesn't apply to people like Peter Strzok however and the hypocrisy will be completely lost on them. 
That remark was better than the one I was gonna make! 
Grifters gotta grift
Me too!

I wrote the same thing here - https://www.democraticunderground.com/10142328228#post5
I mention about Strzok and how they won't see the hypocrisy. 
unless you set it to threaded. It is a reply to post #4.
See neither #4 or #5. Anyway, your second reply explains all. 
and

) - here it is-
5. Of course the "Constitutional right to free speech"
doesn't apply to people like Peter Strzok however and the hypocrisy will be completely lost on them.
“The question is not whether Conway was ‘championing the agenda of the president’ — who, it’s worth noting, actively supports Moore — but whether she was advocating against Jones,” Schaub explained. “Only in a world of alternative facts could Conway’s televised words amount to anything other than advocacy against Jones. In short, the case against Conway is airtight; or it would be, that is, if President Trump hadn’t appointed Kerner to lead the OSC.”
