Suspected leaker Michael Short has been terminated from the White House communications office, Breitbart News can confirm.
Short, an ally of White House chief of staff Reince Priebus and now former Press Secretary Sean Spicer—who resigned last week—was terminated on Tuesday by new White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci.
Short originally worked for the Trump campaign—placed on it by Priebus—and quit the campaign, sources tell Breitbart News, after the Access Hollywood tape came out. Politico confirmed this report, noting that Short walked out in the middle of the campaign leaving his computer behind only to show back up in January at the behest of the Republican National Committee (RNC) allies in the White House.
“He was scorned by many of his colleagues for quitting the Trump campaign, only to rejoin as a White House staffer because of Priebus,”
Multiple White House sources confirm to Breitbart News that Short was a leaker, and worked closely with now former White House deputy chief of staff Katie Walsh—another RNC wing official who was terminated earlier this year for her own leaking.
Short has not responded to a request for comment on the questions about his leaking. But he did tell CNN he does not believe he has been fired, even though multiple White House sources confirm he has been.
Scaramucci has confirmed multiple times in interviews over the weekend that he plans to root out leakers throughout the White House.
Now, on Tuesday, he has again confirmed that he will terminate everyone if necessary to stop the leaks.

Termination but no prosecution?
We are all Americans and patriots, and my father, who was born in Italy, fought for America in WWII.
But I still like to see a fellow ancestor of the boot doing good for his country :)
Because I have to suffer through Pelosi, De Blasio, Cuomo etc.
At least I have Rudy and now this guy :)
Let’s count....One!!
Yup, exactly. Throw some of these people in prison for a few years and the leaks will dry up.
Only the true-believer, ideologically driven will continue...................
When DJT won, he had no pre-existing infrastructure or staff. He didn’t know the ins and outs of the daily gov’t functions. He needed to use the Establishment to do just that....establish/set up the Trump White House Administration.
He used them for their skills, and now that he is comfortable and knows the ropes, he has brought the Mooch to dispense with the sewer rats.
Brilliant! Next stop: Sessions. Onward!
Yep.
>>Fire. EVERYONE!
********************
YES. There are millions of supporters who love DJT and would jump at the chance to serve him loyally and HONESTLY.
One possible idea is to consult his friend, Jerry Falwell Jr., and tap recent Liberty University law school or government graduates. They would do a great job for him and us.
That’s how I see it. I give Trump a year to have his house in order. What did people expect from a guy who has never held political office. Obviously the first 12 months were going to have some instability. Then again, there is always some instability the first year, there was with Reagan as well.
I’m just a poor boy, nobody loves me...
Keep cleaning!
I wish people wouldn’t use “Mooch” for Scaramucci. Reminds me of “Moochelle” which is someone I’d just as soon forget.
Sessions can show allegiance to his President by getting up on his hind legs and fighting like a man....
.... appoint a second special prosecutor to investigate Seth Rich’s death & the DNC server,...
...it could be broadened (just like Mueller is doing) to include Clinton fundraising crimes, unmasking for political espionage purposes, the Lynch/Clinton Obstruction of Justice, leaking of classified info out of the Deep State, Mueller & Comey’s ties to the DNC....
Fire McCabe, turn the FBI lose on real criminality....
In the mechanical voice of the Daleks from Dr. Who: Exterminate!!!!!!
Yup ...
Or as Devo sang, “We’re through being cool.....We’re through being cool....Eliminate the ninnies and the twits.”
“I told ya so.” Now I feel better. Seriously, I said from day one that Rancid Penis and Paul Ryan were dirty. Mooch & Company need to take out The Limp One and work on imprisoning Ryan.
How about Moocholini? At least he has some backbone unlike the timid conservatives.
Yup. I’d waterboard that little prick for names of his accomplices.
Heh...sometimes that is how I feel about these people in the government!
