WASHINGTON — President Trump has decided to remove Anthony Scaramucci from his position as communications director, three people close to the decision said Monday, relieving him just days after Mr. Scaramucci unloaded a crude verbal tirade against other senior members of the president’s senior staff.

The decision to remove Mr. Scaramucci, who had boasted about reporting directly to the president not the chief of staff, John F. Kelly, came at Mr. Kelly’s request, the people said. Mr. Kelly made clear to members of the White House staff at a meeting Monday morning that he is in charge.

I had it weeks ago and still run circles around you.

C’mon, put those sweat pants on and keep up!

Stop with the wild accusations while your at it!

It was fun. Now we all watch. No Harm, No Foul.

[JBW1949]

Sessions might just take over Kelly’s previous position as Secretary of Homeland Security....

[VermithraxPejorative]

What’s this? I can’t keep up with all the McMasters, Never Trumpers, Obama holdovers, etc. he keeps on or hires.

[VermithraxPejorative]

McMaster needs to go.

[LesbianThespianGymnasticMidget]

Lighten up hun. I was pulling your leg.

Thanks

All I know is I’m glad this guy’s gone. You can’t find one post on here of me celebrating his vulgar tirade and rants and calls to CNN. And attacking Bannon the way he did? That’s a No-No.

[nopardons]

I run in a straight line.....and actually get somewhere.

You, OTOH, run in circles and only manage to make yourself dizzier than you already were.

For those who don't know our history....you ALWAYS disagree with what I post, continually behave childishly, towards me, and very much need to grow up.

This is NOT "fun"...watching the president whom I donated to, worked to get elected, and still hope will be able to overcome all of the obstacles in his path, to get accomplished what needs to be done, have to not only fight the vast army of peoples who want him destroyed, but also to be in the midst of the mess, his supposed own team keeps putting him in.

If this is true...could it be said that Trump "cock-blocked" the mouthy little Italian?

If anybody wonders what I'm talking about;

Now that little Anthony has, figuratively speaking, screwed the pooch (while shooting himself in both feet) he'll have to get used to living in the doghouse? Divorce, you know?

But watch him --- next step ---high dollar cat-houses(?), lots of booze (and coke, maybe) then busted?

If he could find a bottle of chill pills ---and use those judiciously--- just maybe with the money he has he could take a time-out and reevaluate his decision-making paradigm?

Or is going to take somebody busting his chops more literally 'till he learns to watch his mouth more careful?

The boy needs to learn him some manners.

[nopardons]

There’s got to be a list....so that all of us can manage to keep up. At least I wish there was one.

[Mr.Unique]

No. It’s called ‘learning the ropes.'

And, they're great ropes. The very best ropes, I gotta tell ya.

[nopardons]

It wasn’t clever, funny, nor called for; but most of all, not appreciated.

[eyedigress]

I asked for a link that tied Comey to Kelly.

You are now apoplectic over it.

Provide the link. We have nothing to discuss. You spouted some BS and I called you on it.

Go from there.

[nopardons]

Did I REALLY need to use the usually /S at the end of that post? LOL

Bless your heart.....

[nopardons]

FOR WHAT FEELS LIKE THE 100TH TIME, BUT ISN'T.....THE LINK IS AT THE TOP OF THE FIRST PAGE OF THIS THREAD!

You didn't "call me" on anything; you refuse to accept the answer and go to the link already posted.

[SamAdams76]

There are actually a ton of links out there where John Kelly almost resigned himself over the firing of Jim Comey. Just do a search on "John Kelly Jim Comey" and you will get a bunch.

Here's one of them.

Not sure what to make of it.

[eyedigress]

BTW, I don’t need somebody else’s opinion. You didn’t post it that way. You posted it as a fact which means you are trying to smear Kelly before he gets to turn one.

If you want the truth you have it, FRONT and CENTER.

[RitaOK]

This WH staff needed to hear Kelly say that he is “in charge”.

Priebus was clearly not in charge.
Scaramucci was overly in charge.
Spicer was stressed out.

There is a statement out already that Jarret and Ivanka are happy to report to Kelly, as well. Ivanka reportedly is interested in less being expected of her.

The writing is on the wall that changes are here and I believe the petty and noisy things have a chance to simmer down, cut the drama, under Kelly, at the White House executive staff level.

The real battles are big, and these foreign and domestic affairs are accelerating. All hands and energy need to be expended on those.

[nikos1121]

Hey, let’s make it simple. John Kelly is chief of staff. Chief. Everyone reports to him, even Ivanka and Jared.

Mooch crapped in his nest. Kelly said that’s the way I wanted or I don’t take the job.

Couldn’t be easier.

I think more of Trump with each passing day.

[RitaOK]

I want to thank you for that heads up! If not for you, I would have missed the dang thing entirely.
