ICYMI Natasha Bertrand and Laura Walker

[ by Charles Cameron — this story of the “Nunes acolyte” is too timely to miss, too singular to loom large in the so-called greater picture ]

.

I’ll let Laura Walker have the first word of the White House worm called Kashyap Patel:

Nunes acolyte misrepresented himself to Trump as Ukraine expert

Natasha Bertrand, brilliant Politico writer, gets the next bite, writing the original story that Laura opened with:

Nunes acolyte misrepresented himself to Trump as Ukraine expert

And I’ll close with Laura‘s closing link, backgrounding Patel:

Trump admirer Kashyap ‘Kash’ Patel lands important White House position

Follow Laura. Follow Natasha

That’s it for today.
