Mulvaney and Cipollone feuding over chief of staff job via CBSNews
Washington — An internal West Wing feud is pitting the top White House lawyer, Pat Cipollone, against President Trump's acting chief of staff, Mick Mulvaney, from both inside and outside the administration for recently telling reporters that military aid to Ukraine was withheld in part to advance Mr. Trump's political requests.
Those close to Mulvaney contend Cipollone is a bigger problem, primarily his hard-nosed legal advice — so far accepted by Trump — to ignore the House impeachment inquiry and with requests for documents and witnesses. One Mulvaney ally described Cipollone's maneuvering as a"smokescreen for his own malpractice.
