On Thursday, the Office of Special Counsel, a civil service watchdog, released a report listing several instances where they found that White House adviser Kellyanne Conway had violated the Hatch Act. In effect since 1939, the Hatch Act, prohibits employees of the federal government from engaging in political activities while performing their jobs.

The OSC recommended Conway’s termination based on their findings, but conceded that the decision to terminate her would be the president’s. Special Counsel Henry Kerner told Fox News later in the day, “We respect his [Trump’s] decision and, of course, the president has any option he’d like — to reprimand or not to reprimand. It is up to the president’s discretion and we respect that.”
