Kushner Ally Rob Porter Resigns from White House amid Domestic Abuse Allegations
Breitbart ^ | February 7, 2018 | Ben Kew

Posted on 02/07/2018 12:13:27 PM PST by be-baw

White House Staff Secretary Rob Porter has resigned amid allegations that he abused two of his ex-wives. The Daily Mail reported on domestic abuse allegations on Wednesday from two of Porter’s ex-wives, Colbie Holderness and Jennifer Willoughby, who shared stories and photo evidence of repeated physical abuse.

According to Axios, Porter had been urged by some White House staff including Gen. John Kelly to “stay and fight” for his position.

Porter, the Daily Mail previously reported, is currently in a relationship with White House Communications Director Hope Hicks and was a close ally of Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner.

Cool your jets spaceman, this news broke on Monday. In fact, my local talk show host had a conversation with the RNC chairman on Monday morning and brought up the allegations and she said they acted swiftly in light of the accusations......

Breitbart has nothing to do with this...........Sheesh!

Well, I figured that.

My question was mostly rhetorical to highlight the hypocrisy of these democRATS on this subject, not so much to find out why he's not gone already.

But thanks for pointing the dual-protection plan he owns. If he was a transgendered woman, black and liberal....that's a 4-fer, (s)he could run for democRAT president in 2020. :-)

TWO ex wives have photos of what he did to them, AND he’s shagging Hope?!?

Out, get out now!!! Get away from my MAGA president and his great agenda!! We don’t want your personal soap operas dragging our POTUS down.

Makes me wonder what the *!#!!# is wrong with Hope.......

Porter says he took the photos? And that’s supposed to mean what?

I am seriously questioning Donald’s HR skills here.

I guess we will have to wait for Porter to elaborate.

“I assume nothing!”

Like Schultz on Hogan’s Heroes!

2 beaten ex-wives AND a girl he was living with before Hope Hicks, that makes THREE, all say he was abusive.

Would you let YOUR daughter anywhere near him?

He IS a serial abuser. Hope Hicks needs to drop this thug immediately.

Agreed.

And when she does, and he then starts stalking and threatening her, she's got to have him stopped, muzzled and bounced waaaay out of town.

This creep just had his dream world blow up on him, and somebody is going to pay.

“This creep just had his dream world blow up on him, and somebody is going to pay.”

Couldn’t agree more.

Makes me wonder why the FBI was sitting on this??? I wonder if they were going to coordinate a release of this information to coincide with a DEM/Media attack on Trump and his treatment of women. The Daily Mail likely killed their plan.

Hard to believe that is what I think our FBI is capable of.

Why aren’t the Dems being called out?

They have a case on the Left Coast involving a fag heavy Dem contributor who wound up with a black fag male ho in his house, dead from a meth overdose...

Apparently Liberace's thing was to bring black boys home and dope 'em up...Like Cosby in reverse. Or Cosby in arrears, you might say.

(daid boy above)

Haven't hear much about this one either, have we?

You would be surprised at how many domestic abuse victims don’t involve the police. Domestic abuse often involves alcohol and/or drugs. I wonder if that was an issue. Are government employees drug-tested?

From what I’ve read, Porter didn’t directly interact with Trump and Trump didn’t really know him. It infuriates me that these people are hired and end up embarassing the president. Who can be trusted?

Porter is very charismatic. People were impressed by how he worked. But his inability to get security clearance should have finished him off.

I've seen multiple FReepers say Porter didn't have a security clearance because of his past issues. If this is true, what idiot would let him have such access in the White House without a security clearance? Is this Kushner's doing?

That would be my guess. But Trump isn’t a politician. CEO’s usually don’t care about people’s personal lives. They want results.

"2 ex wives... and he’s now dating Hope Hicks?

That’s what he gets for being a playah. Someone is going to get pee-o’d.

It never ends well.
"

Hicks helped him write the response against the accusations.

It it was proven in a court of law that he was falsely accused and that it was just a matter of having the appearance of impropriety, I probably would...IF I had a daughter.
