Oh well. John “Pat” Philbin’s career with the Director of National Intelligence is indeed over before it started. From the AP:

“We do not normally comment on personnel matters,” DNI spokesman Ross Feinstein said Monday. “However, we can confirm that Mr. Philbin is not, nor is he scheduled to be, the director of public affairs for the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.”

Feinstein said earlier that Philbin’s job change had been put on hold while McConnell reviewed his record.

We assume that Philbin will be holding a press conference with himself in the wake of this development.
