The Office of Special Counsel has had issues with White House Counselor Kellyanne Conway for months, and now they are formally requesting her removal from federal service. In a letter released on Thursday, the OSC explains that not only has Conway violated the Hatch Act by disparaging Democratic candidates in TV interviews, but she's also mocked the law itself.
The OSC wants President Trump to take her "defiant attitude" and "pattern of misconduct" into account and dismiss her.
