Former President Trump’s last adviser to the White House, Pat Shipolone, has repeatedly threatened to resign, the commission said, citing testimony from Trump’s son-in-law and former White House adviser Jared Kouchner. “I know it was always him and the team always saying, ‘Oh, we’re going to give up. “We will not be here if this happens, if this happens, so I kind of took it upon you to grumble, to be honest with you,” Kouchner was quoted as saying in a statement from Thursday’s hearing. “The White House adviser was so concerned about the potentially illegal activity that he threatened to resign several times,” said Liz Cheney, the committee’s vice-chairwoman, at the hearing. “This is extremely rare and extremely serious. It requires immediate attention, especially when the whole team is threatening to resign. However, in the White House Trump, it was not extremely rare and was not taken seriously. “ It is unknown at this time what he will do after leaving the post. Kouchner, in his testimony, also said that he believed that those who threatened to resign could “moan”. The commission did not provide further details on the resignations as of Thursday. The incident marked a turning point in the investigation into Russia in the first half of Trump’s presidency. Attorney General Robert Mueller recorded how then-White House adviser Don McGahn prepared to resign instead of closing the Trump-ordered investigation, and Mueller found that the incident met the legal limit for obstruction of justice, although Trump was not charged. .
