White House Counsel Pat Cipollone listens during a Supreme Court confirmation hearing at the Capitol on October 14, 2020. Erin Schaff/Pool/Getty ImagesSince the election, he had considered resigning multiple times, but has been urged to stay for the good of the country by members of the Senate and the Cabinet.
Cipollone was also among those advising the President that he could be removed from office – via the 25th Amendment or impeachment – if he did not more forcefully denounce the actions of his supporters who attacked the US Capitol. He had also pushed backed on the legality of strategies Trump floated with other attorneys, such as Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell, as a means to disputing the 2020 presidential election results.
“Pat is a true public servant dedicated to the rule of law and his country,” another source close to Cipollone said.Cipollone's exit would add to a growing list of Trump administration officials, which now includes Cabinet members, who have resigned from their government roles since the Capitol siege.
Cipollone defended the President during his first impeachment proceedings, but his potential exit raises questions about who would represent Trump if current impeachment talks pick up steam. Cipollone's participation is now highly unlikely.

I am looking forward to a congressional hearing on how the Capitol police ignored over a month of very public warnings. This is almost as humiliating from a national security perspective as 9/11
he don't want his wife to see his search history and hidden apps.
Shouldn’t someone be charged for murder of a DC police officer
They should check The Mac Shop in Wilmington, Delaware.
Just imagine if the boxes containing the electoral college votes were stolen, which they almost were, but they were moved to a safe location moments before the breach of the capital
