KELLYANNE CONWAY BROKE THE LAW ATTACKING JOE BIDEN IN WHITE HOUSE DRIVEWAY AND SHOULD BE FIRED: BUSH ETHICS CHIEF

chief ethics lawyer under President George W. Bush accused Counselor to the President Kellyanne Conway of breaking federal law yet again for bashing former Vice President and 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden on the White House driveway the past two days.

Conway, while speaking to reporters on Tuesday and Wednesday, talked down Biden. Former ethics chief Richard Painter flagged these actions as violations of the Hatch Act, which prohibits government employees other than elected officials from using their official positions to influence the result of an election.

“Oh we must be worried about Biden,” Conway said on Wednesday. “Look at what Kellyanne said today, so thanks for the free commercial on all the things Joe Biden didn’t get done for the eight years he was vice president.”

Painter told Newsweek on Thursday that Conway is “obviously attacking Joe Biden,” and, “this is a slam dunk Hatch Act violation.”

“She did it before, she got away with it when she trashed Doug Jones, and goes to the exact same spot trashing Joe Biden,” Painter said, referring to late 2017 when Conway slammed then-Senate candidate Democrat Doug Jones in front of the White House.

In March 2018, the Office of Special Counsel concluded that Conway indeed violated the Hatch Act speaking against Jones twice in her official capacity and recommended that recommended that the president take disciplinary action. But Conway has since remained at her post and received praise from President Donald Trump. Read more
