Republican National Committee chief counsel Charlie Spies is out at the Republican National Committee.
Republican National Committee spokesperson Danielle Alvarez said in a statement, “Charlie approached Republican National Committee Chief of Staff, Chris LaCivita, about potential time commitment conflicts and it was agreed that, while we appreciate and value Charlie’s expertise and professionalism, he cannot do this role full time and still maintain the obligations to his law firm that he has spent years successfully building.”
Republican National Committee chief counsel Charlie Spies is parting ways with the party apparatus just months after stepping into the role. He was “pushed out,” according to a source familiar with the move.
“Charlie approached Republican National Committee Chief of Staff, Chris LaCivita, about potential time commitment conflicts and it was agreed that, while we appreciate and value Charlie’s expertise and professionalism, he cannot do this role full time and still maintain the obligations to his law firm that he has spent years successfully building,” said Republican National Committee spokesperson Danielle Alvarez in a statement first to NBC News.
Spies did not immediately respond to a request for comment Saturday night.
NBC News previously reported that Spies was hired in March to lead the committee’s legal efforts amid the Republican National Committee leadership overhaul, when former President Donald Trump endorsed Michael Whatley to helm the organization, effectively reshaping the committee in his image.
Donald Trump called Spies leaving “great news.” He also called Spies a “RINO.”
Great news for the Republican Party. RINO lawyer Charlie Spies is out as Chief Counsel of the Republican National Committee. I wish him well!
