"CNN —
President-elect Donald Trump said Wednesday he has picked David Warrington to serve as his White House counsel and that Bill McGinley, whom Trump had previously tapped for the role, will instead serve as counsel to the Department of Government Efficiency.
The move was seen by some in Trump’s orbit as the result of an effort to push McGinley, someone with whom Trump was not deeply familiar, out of the key role. McGinley initially got the nod after top Trump aide Boris Epshteyn pushed him for the job and got him across the finish line, multiple sources told CNN at the time. Epshteyn, who CNN recently reported was the subject of an internal investigation into allegations that he sought to gain financially from his influence with Trump and others in his orbit, had helped fill a number of legal roles within the administration."

Four years of drama, comin' up!
