Did Brett McGurk take a photo with a terrorist?

In early 2016 Brett McGurk visited the Kurdish city Kobani. He is pictured receiving an award from Polat Can, a YPG (the People's Protection Units)

fighter.

Before joining the YPG Polat can was part of the PKK (Kurdistan Workers Party), a group the U.S. State Department has recognised as a terrorist organisation since ’97. You can see Polat Can wearing the PKK uniform in the photo with woman and another man.

Don't know if this was already posted, but he was also recused from the Michael Cohen Case:

The reasons for his removal weren’t immediately clear. Under Justice Department policy, a US attorney cannot remove him or herself from a case. That decision is made by a senior Justice Department official in consultation with its general counsel’s office, usually when a US attorney has a potential conflict of interest or a question about impartiality may arise.

Could be because Trump interviewed Berman for the job. Apparently it is highly unusual for Presidents to interview U.S. Attorneys:

"I never heard of a president interviewing a US attorney candidate," Richard Painter, a University of Minnesota law professor who served as Bush's chief ethics lawyer, told Business Insider.

Politico reported this week that Trump interviewed candidates for the Southern and Eastern District of New York, citing sources.

Trump reportedly interviewed Geoffrey Berman, who works at the same law firm as former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, for the vacancy in the Southern District of New York, the spot vacated by former US Attorney Preet Bharara. In the Eastern District of New York, Trump interviewed Ed McNally, who works at the law firm headed by Marc Kasowitz, Trump's former top lawyer in handling special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation.

"A third source, this one close to Shanahan, said the deputy has “never aspired” to the top job, but wouldn’t rule the option out.

“He’s not a policy or geopolitics guy. He’s a business guy,” the source said. “But he’s spent the last year learning from the best. And Shanahan is known for having a good relationship” with Trump and Vice President Mike Pence."

He's a former Boeing Executive.
