“Blasting Sessions was really stupid and now this”.

Screw Sessions. He screwed all of us with his “Recusal”. And his giving cops the right to smash & grab was the last straw.

[little jeremiah]

Cowardly? Not at all. Dotted the legal i’s and crossed the legal t’s.

It certainly did not give the Russia jive legs. That is all Dems/traitor Rs like McInsane’s work.

Scaramucci is a good pick. He hit back at CNN and 3 execs lost their jobs with Mueller expanding the scope of the investigation, the stakes are high. Trump needs street fighters to take on those who are trying to bring him down.

Obie knew to bring in most of Clinton’s street fighters to work for his administration. I have to give the a-hole credit for knowing to do this.

Trump has listened too much to Priebus and it has been hurting him, IMO. Being nice is getting him nowhere.

Newt should replace Priebus. He knows how Washington DC works....inside out.

the old fart decided to go after medical marijuana.

After restarting the failed "war on drugs" with the least problematic drug as a target Sessions decided that he would reinstate the overly broad civil seizure laws that resulted in many small businesses and others having assets seized by the government without any trial or conviction, and encourage police forces to use them even if their state laws don't allow seizures.

What was he thinking? Sessions has been a real disappointment.

This is interesting: Mike Cernovich 🇺🇸‏Verified account @Cernovich__________________________________________Scoop - Reince Priebus is leaning on WaPo and Politico to hit Scaramucci hard. Up all night seeding stories. Expect hit pieces in a.m.

How long does Preibus last?

How Did I know you would be a non-contributor? I must be psychic.

[fatez]

You really are a kool-aid drinker...

And you can post your drivel about media narratives, I really don't give a damn what you think Sargon, this has been a horrible week and no amount of your spin changes it. And BTW, I want Trump to succeed, this is not good for America.

[caww]

Ari Flesher chimed in and really gave a good explanation on why this is happening and good that it did. People forget Spicer was at this with Trump all the way back to his campaign in a lead position. He's certainly been a 'large part' of Trump winning the election....so I give him great credit......However this work burns people out under normal conditions.....with all Trumps doing he needs to 'refresh' his key people all the ore.

Shame. The Sean Spicer parody account on Twitter was pure comedy gold...

Man, forcing a guy out of his job just to silence a parody is harsh— Sean Spicier (@sean_spicier) July 21, 2017

I get him just fine so keep the Art of War BS to yourself. Trump’s team is his team, meaning he picked them. He either effed it the first time picking them or the second when he discovered they weren’t his people. Tell me which one was it???

[JME_FAN]

Particularly in context of Trump’s repeatedly emphasized “drug” issue being heroine, not marijuana.

[9YearLurker]

Gorka sure is good with the press, however.

[bankwalker]

Scaramucci vs. Priebus?

My money’s on Scaramucci ... BIGLEY ...

[heights]

“I want Trump to succeed, this is not good for America.”

Shaking up the White House Communications is not good for America? You win the clutching Pearls Award of the century

I would be so relieved if Newt were to come crashing in and vaporize all the zips that were invited inside the wire since Nov.

Bobalu and I did a little study on him, we found compelling evidence he’s Churchill’s illegit son.

[9YearLurker]

Also interesting (concerning?): Maggie Haberman‏Verified account @maggieNYT 13h13 hours ago A few things - Scaramucci move is also a blow to Spicer, who has sought to have comms director report to him, as Dubke did. No chance here ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Maggie Haberman‏Verified account @maggieNYT Also impt to remember, Scaramucci would be someone who returns media phone calls/is liked by a lot of reporters.

[Albion Wilde]

And Melissa McCarthy just lost her gig on “Saturday Night Live”.

Good riddance to that.

[fatez]

No the turmoil is not is not good for America and its not just a shakeup. Its the constant shaking with no settling, nice try...

[9YearLurker]

Yep. I don’t know that I trust the Mooch, an Obama donor and Jeb! primary backer, but he will squish Priebus like the little bug that he is.
