White House press aide Michael Short resigned Tuesday after the presidents new communications director revealed plans to fire him, according to a report.
I have resigned, effective immediately, Short told the political blog The Hill via text message Tuesday. It was a privilege to serve the President of the United States.
Earlier in the day, White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci told the Politico website that he planned to fire Short over alleged leaks.
Since Scaramucci didnt tell him, Short initially denied the story.
No one has told me anything, and the entire premise is false, he told CNN.
In a strange twist, Scaramucci blamed another leak for early news of the firing even though he was the person who let it slip.

“reince is next”
Wouldn’t surprise me.
Everybody wants to be some Woodward and Bernstein’s Deep Throat...................
No more LEAKS!!!!!!!
Commence Level IV Decon.
All hands prepare for salt water washdown.
Dunno about that, but Mooch has made sure the little rats employment history is no different than if he’d been fired. The who!e world knows.
I was wondering about Reince but didn’t he say he and Reince were childhood friends?
You all know that it is very difficult for a Greek to keep from saying something. Ha, ha!!
“He told CNN.”
IMHO that is a big red flag.
Everybody wants to be some Woodward and Bernsteins Deep Throat...................Since Watergate, the closest thing in the White House to a deep throat was Monica Lewinsky.
What’s par for the course on a thing like that? You could build a nice golf course on that flight deck, have an indoor driving range.. Not sure if the salt water can stay tho, real grass and bunkers would be slicker. The USS Trump CVN-77 Setting Sail Soon.
“Scaramucci should POLYGRAPH EVERYONE”
The fact that everyone isn’t polygraphed routinely amazing. My husband was polygraphed every couple of years in conjunction with his security clearance. These people deal with confidential issues every day; they should be polygraphed.
Really. Because the story earlier today was that The Mooch fired him
Sounds like Short is trying to cover for his being fired
The problem with prosecuting these leakers is that once they get into court there is no telling (not a pun) what other national damaging secrets they are willing to reveal there.
Perhaps there is something to be said for the Clinton/Mafia method.
Psst! Jeff Sessions? Here is how to take the hint!
Boss says you failed.
Boss says you are not with the team.
Boss hints you may be fired.
YOU QUIT.
RESIGN JEFF SESSIONS! RESIGN!
Jeff, you are working for the opponent’s team. Resign.
Drain the swamp!
If real, that is an amazing photo. I had no idea they had sprinklers covering the entire topside.
