White House counsel Emmet Flood, who has dealt with the response to special counsel Robert Mueller's report, will leave the job now that Mueller's probe report has been delivered, President Trump said
"Emmet Flood, who came to the White House to help me with the Mueller Report, will be leaving service on June 14th," President Donald Trump tweeted."He has done an outstanding job -- NO COLLUSION - NO OBSTRUCTION! Case Closed! Emmet is my friend, and I thank him for the GREAT JOB he has done."Flood has been a White House lawyer since Ty Cobb's departure from the position last spring.
But Flood had long indicated that he was not interested in staying after the Mueller report to handle the White House's response to Democratic investigations and oversight, two sources familiar with his role said.Flood was central to the White House's response to the Mueller report, drafting a letter to Attorney General Bill Barr slamming Mueller for failing to come to a conclusion on obstruction.
