(CNN)First lady Melania Trump, in a remarkable move carried out by her spokeswoman, publicly pushed for the ouster of deputy national security adviser Mira Ricardel. "It is the position of the Office of the First Lady that (Ricardel) no longer deserves the honor of serving in this White House," the first lady's communications director Stephanie Grisham said in a statement on Tuesday. The statement amounted to a stunning public rebuke by a first lady of a senior official serving in her husband's administration. It came after reports surfaced earlier Tuesday indicating Ricardel would be pushed out of her post after less than seven months on the job. Neither Ricardel not spokespeople for the National Security Council responded to CNN requests for comment.

“the national security advisor ‘threatened’ to with-hold funds for Melania’s trip if Melania didn’t comply with her own demands.”

Ohhhh ... would that be “a career limiting move”? Really, really bad choice — messing with the lovely Melania. OUR lovely Melania!

Apparently she liked throwing her weight around a bit too far.....

One thing we know...Our POTUS and FLOTUS like to engage the people.....and the security people must adapt to this. It’s a risk for all but these two are very ‘we the people’ oriented.

Apparently, that’s the difference between hourly wage-roll employees and salaried professionals.
