Kathryn Ruemmler served as White House Counsel under President Obama from 2011 to 2014. Shortly after leaving the White House and returning to private practice, Ruemmler appears to have become chummy with pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. CNN published a story today highlighting some of the dozens of emails between Ruemmler and Epstein.
When billionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein needed legal advice, help responding to negative press, or just moral support, he often turned to an unexpected confidante – Kathy Ruemmler, an elite attorney who served two US presidents and was once a top candidate for US attorney general...
A CNN KFile review of Epstein’s emails and travel schedules sheds new light on his relationship with the power-broking lawyer and shows that their ties went far beyond professional advice and into the realm of a friendship...
As early as 2014, the year that Ruemmler left the Obama White House, the pair already appeared close, with Ruemmler telling Epstein in one email, “I’ll be here all week — you may get sick of me.”

Epstein’s estate is fighting to keep hundreds of additional emails between Ruemmler and Epstein private, arguing that they are protected by attorney-client privilege. The privilege log shows that Ruemmler continued to communicate with Epstein through at least June 2019 and suggests she was more involved with Epstein’s legal affairs than previously known.
Ruemmler was Associate Counsel to President Clinton and White House Counsel to President Barack Obama. I only checked W'pedia's bio because I wanted to be partisanly fair and mention GWB if she worked for him.
The Dems are hoping that they can sift through the Epstein files to find Rs and conservatives they can slander or embarrass, with Trump being their hoped-for jackpot. This situation illustrates the rsk they are assuming, and Ruemmler should be doing some 'splainin' since she seems to have been working with Epstein to a significant degree when it was clearly known that he was a pander, and his "wares" included under-age and barely-of-age girls/women.
