The White House said on Saturday that the Trump administration has withdrawn the nomination of Adam Bohaler as a special presidential messenger for mortgage cases.
Bohaler, who is working to secure the release of hostages organized by Hamas in Gaza, will continue hostage-related work as a so-called “special government employee”, a condition that will not require confirmation of the Senate.
White House spokesman Karolin Lewit said in a statement, “Adam Boheller will continue to serve President Trump, who focuses on hostage dialogue as a special government employee.”
“Adam played an important role in negotiating Mark Phogel’s return to Russia. He will continue this important work to bring out the wrongly detained persons to the house around the world.”
An officer of the White House, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said Bohrler withdrew his nomination to avoid dividing from his investment company. The move was not disputed due to his discussions with Palestinian terrorist group Hamas.
“He still has great faith in President Trump,” the official said.
Bouler did not immediately respond to the remarks requests.
The Bohaler recently held direct meetings with Hamas on the release of the hostages in Gaza. Discussions were broken by Washington with a decades -old policy, which interact with American brands as terrorist organizations.

Bouler was allowed to connect with the Trump administration directly to Hamas, the US State Secretary Marco Rubio said earlier this week, the dialogue was called a “united position” in which the fruit was not there.
Bohaler has been credited with helping to secure the release of American school student Mark Phogel, which was freed by Russia after a three -and -a -half -year prison in February.
