Ruemmler: the fall gal?
The Obama administration appear to be honing in on a fall guy (girl; gal; woman). It’s Kathryn Ruemmler, White House Counsel, supposedly responsible for hampering disclosures on both Benghazi and the IRS targeting case. A twofer. White House Counsel, White … Continue reading →
Truth and consequences
