The Selective Prosecution of Kellyanne Conway

Roger L. Simon  


"As if the woman didn't have enough to deal with the-most-jealous-husband-on-the-planet, Kellyanne Conway is now being prosecuted, or is it persecuted, by a hitherto little-discussed operation called the  U.S. Office of Special Counsel or OSC (not to be confused with Mueller, et al.).
"These unknown bureaucrats and/or legal eagles want Kellyanne fired for.... wait for it... making political comments while in the White House, specifically: "Given that Ms. Conway is a repeat offender and has shown disregard for the law, OSC recommends that she be removed from federal service,".
"What utter garbage!  What member of any administration since any of us have been alive could not be accused of making political comments while in the White House, overtly or covertly? At least when they're doing it overtly we can see what they're up to. Kudos to Kellyanne for that.
"So why Conway and why now? . . . "

FLASHBACK: Two Obama-Era Officials Violated Hatch Act But Weren't Removed from Office
I repeat: "Two Obama-Era Officials Violated Hatch Act But Weren't Removed from Office".
One of the several cited was this: 
. . . Solis "left a voicemail message on a subordinate employee's government-issued Blackberry in which you asked the employee to contribute toward and assist with organizing others to attend a fundraiser for the President's reelection campaign." . . .
