Clayton Wants a New Job

"The White House has said the decision to nominate Mr. Clayton [as USAttorney for SDNY] was intended to find another job for [him] in order to accommodate his request to be closer to his family in New York ". NYTimes, 6/26, p.18
"So Jay wants a job closer to home. Yeah, let's see, we could make him Governor of the Federal Reserve Bank there. Or, maybe put him in charge of the regional response to the corona virus, maybe he can bring the curve back into line with the national average. That'll take some of the shine off of Cuomo. Hey, how about having him head the local office of the FBI where he can launch an investigation of the US Attorney's office.
Those jerks think they're so independent that they can indict friends of the president. Better yet, let's announce that Geoffrey Berman has resigned and that Jay will be replacing him. He is a lawyer, right? No trial or criminal law experience? No problem, we'll let him know who to charge and who to cut loose. All he has to do is follow Bill's directions. You know, someone better call Berman and tell him he's resigned."
