Good morning,

I’ll be your pooler for the VP's swearing in of Colin McDonald as the assistant attorney general for national fraud enforcement, a newly-created role.

McDonald has long worked as a federal prosecutor and will now be heading up the new DOJ division targeting fraud nationwide.

We are gathered in the Indian Treaty Room and the ceremony is set to start soon. Deputy AG Todd Blanche is here.

Will send color and quotes, and anything newsworthy.

Bests
