Nobody is really asking why Jon Kyl was so hot to enter and leave the U.S. Senate within a few months, after serving as a paid advisor to the Kavanaugh confirmation and a lobbyist for one of the biggest law firms in D.C. cnn.com/2018/11/19/pol…
Kyl was temporarily placed on the Armed Services Cmte while pausing his lobbying services for defense contractors Northrop Grumman and Raytheon
Could it be that Kyl just wanted to gather a few months' worth of political intelligence that goes a bit beyond his existing floor privileges and access to the Senate gym and dining room as an ex-Senator.
And Kyl is leaving before he has to show his financial disclosure form, which would have to list all the other companies he's received money from for lobbying. It's a giant, completely under-the-radar scandal to everyone but @jeffhauser
