Kovaleski

Kovaleski strides into the shadowed Executive Clerk's office late at night, blue file gripped firmly—the House-passed Death Tax Elimination Act override bill—thrusting rookie Donald Dolan into high-stakes protocol. Flanked by a uniformed guard, he confirms identity with clipped precision, spells his name amid the tension, and commands immediate notification to Josh Lyman for Bartlet's signature or veto. Stoic resolve propels this procedural fulcrum, igniting White House frenzy as legislative override erupts into crisis, his exit leaving Dolan dialing desperately into the night.
