BugBrain You are an idiot.
Because OSC opinions are only advisory in regards to presidential appointees, in other words, they can’t require the White House to do anything with their opinion, this was simply an act of defiance and a bit of acting out because Conway made it clear where she stood.
The doomsday scenario laid out by OSC’s director Henry Kerner is overblown and more of a reflection of his failure to come to grips with his own impotence than anything else.
Quite honestly, most feds are mature enough to understand that people on the personal staff of the president aren’t actually civil servants. And so long as OSC can come after them for violating the Hatch Act, they will obey it to the extent they always have.
