BREAKING: This is as close to an admission as this White House *ever* gets.

CNN: Did anyone inside the White House or connected to the White House speak to Kennedy about Kavanaugh, dating back months?
SHAH: I'm not going to read out private conversations.
2/ Berman attempts, over and over, to get an answer from Shah on allegations of unethical collusion between Kennedy and the White House. Shah is adamant that he will give *no response* to these allegations, not because they're false but apparently... because he just won't answer.
3/ Note that the White House *regularly* "reads out" (gives a "read-out" of) Trump's conversations with leaders from around the world. Yet suddenly the White House has a *policy* of *not* providing read-outs of conversations between Trump and a Justice of the Supreme Court? What?
4/ Why are Trump-Kennedy conversations "private" when even Trump-Putin conversations—!—*aren't* private enough to evade a public read-out? I'll go ahead and answer that for you: the White House declares "no read-out" whenever a Trump conversation occurs that would be inculpatory.
5/ Moreover, Shah saying only Kennedy can speak to what was said between him and Trump is outrageous—as Kennedy, unlike Trump, wasn't elected, and the Supreme Court generally has a no-media policy whereas a White House administration necessarily has an entire communications shop.
