Another White House Lawyer Expected To Hit The Exit

The Associated Press reports:

President Donald Trump’s new attorney, Emmet Flood, a veteran of the Clinton impeachment battles, is the leading candidate to replace the White House’s top lawyer, several people familiar with the matter said Thursday.

The move would be an effort to prepare for the possibility that Democrats could regain control of the House after the November election and undertake new congressional investigations.

Three people told The Associated Press that Flood is on deck to replace White House counsel Don McGahn, who has been making plans to leave for some time. But two of the people cautioned that the timing was unclear and McGahn’s departure was not imminent.
