Stuart Delery announced last week “he will step down” after a little over a year as top lawyer for the White House. He doesn’t get paid nearly as much as the Biden family’s personal attorney, Abbe Lowell. Certainly not enough to stick around for what he knows is coming. Particularly the bribery and influence peddling investigations. Those wouldn’t be so bad, because the fix is already in. The problem is Congress breathing down everyone’s neck. You can shove it, Delery declared.
New lawyer for White House
Joe Biden’s handlers announced that they have a new lawyer. White House staff will be represented in court by Ed Siskel for all the upcoming impeachment and bribery investigation nastiness. He was picked for keeping Obama’s rear out of a sling by helping to manage “the Obama White House’s response to the Benghazi and Solyndra investigations.” He also was working close with Joe back when he was Vice President.
“He’s got precisely the right temperament for this kind of role. He’s great under pressure. Really calm and very understated, but also tough as nails,” former White House counsel Kathy Ruemmler notes. “He’s the guy who you want in the foxhole with you.”
Siskel will start answering subpoenas next month, “as Biden is charging into a reelection battle and at a time when the various judicial and congressional investigations circling around the [alleged] president, his family and his administration are entering a critical stage.”

Everyone in the White House needs a lawyer because the deal to let Hunter off the hook for everything fell through at the last minute. Then, we learned that David Weiss only filed the lame misdemeanors because the whistleblowers came forward.
He already has the priciest lawyer on the planet as his personal attorney but it’s looking certain that Joe will be called on the witness stand to testify about his role in all the bribery and influence peddling allegations floating around. Even the propaganda ministry admits that “Joe Biden could soon be interviewed by federal investigators as part of the special counsel investigation into his handling of classified documents.”
That’s only part of it. “The U.S. attorney investigating the president’s son Hunter has just been named a special counsel.” On top of that, “House Republicans, who are already investigating Biden on several fronts, are eyeing a potential impeachment inquiry.”
The perfect choice
He’s exactly the lawyer the White House staff are going to need, Joe assures. “Ed Siskel’s many years of experience in public service and a career defending the rule of law make him the perfect choice to serve as my next White House Counsel,” he read from the cue card.
“For nearly four years in the White House when I was Vice President, he helped the Counsel’s Office navigate complex challenges and advance the President’s agenda on behalf of the American people.” We won’t go into what Obama’s agenda “really” was. We’ve covered that elsewhere.
Siskel is an accomplished lawyer, and he’ll need to be. He’s going to have some tricky legal challenges coming his way. Ones which his predecessor will be watching closely, from Fiji. He cut his teeth “first as a federal prosecutor and then as the top counsel for one of America’s biggest and most vibrant cities, his hometown of Chicago.”

That’s a scary thought, considering the lawless state of Chicago now. The way Joe sees it, “Ed has shown a deep commitment to public service and respect for the law.” He still has a bunch of Obama contacts in the Windy City too.
That’s because “Siskel helped manage the Obama White House’s response to House Republicans’ 2011 investigation of the White House’s relationship with Solyndra, the solar energy company that received a government loan and ultimately went bankrupt, as well as into the US government’s response to the terrorist attack on the U.S. mission in Benghazi in 2012.”
Proof he’s a good lawyer is in the fact nobody was able to prove that Hillary Clinton was dealing arms from the Embassy.
