Civil War in the White House?

Scaramucci  just tweeted a little earlier that private financial information of his was leaked from the White House (he said it was a felony)  and that he was reporting it to the FBI and DOJ - then he also copied @priebus45...


Maybe not...

I see that now the tweet was apparently deleted...

Scaramucci deleted it after a lot of criticism. 

‘Those are public records, my dude’: Internet howls after Scaramucci accuses Priebus of leaking his disclosure forms"

Totally public information. You or I can get it if we ask. Obviously not a felony. FBI and DOJ are probably laughing at him now.

This is the problem with "businesspeople" going into government. They have NO IDEA what they are talking about. They think the Federal government is just one giant private enterprise.


Paragraph of the day:

"An enigmatic series of tweets Wednesday night erupted into a stunning CNN interview Thursday morning in which Scaramucci compared his relationship with Priebus to Cain and Abel (he didn’t indicate which is which) and said he didn’t know whether his relationship with Priebus was “repairable.” He also implied that national-security leakers ought to be executed."

He's been in the WH two days, and already he has an irreparable relationship? This will not end well. for Mooch or for the WH. And Preibus gets what he deserves for selling his soul.

Geez. At first I read this as " ... national-security LEADERS ..."


In his interview with Chris Cuomo this morning, Scaramucci quoted Joe Paterno.    

Scaramucci told Cuoma "Why don't you honor your job?"   "Remember Joe Paterno? What would he say? Act like you've been there before. Act with honor and dignity and respect and hold the confidence of the presidency in his office." 

Scaramucci's comments start at 12:38 on the video.

Scaramucci forgot to add, "...and protect sexual predators."

Of all people to quote. What's wrong with the guy? 

eta - “I’m not even a big sports fan, but I revere him for having such awesome standards, for making his football players actually hold up his morals,” Ponter said. “And then for himself to not hold it up, it’s very sad.”

"Does anyone else think Scaramucci might be hoovering up a little Bolivian marching powder before these manic interviews?"

An awesome Twitter thread. 


the people in the WH are quite possibly literally insane. Every day, it just gets worse.


Breitbart knows how to get under Trump's skin:

"Move over President Donald Trump. You are yesterday’s news. It seems like this is now The Anthony Scaramucci Show. And Trump better get used to it."

That just means Bannon wants him fired.


Bannon didn't want him. Bannon is aligned with Preiubus. 

Jared, Ivanka and Gary Cohen wanted Scaramucci.

Thing is, people like Moochie eventually piss off everyone. Give it a month and he'll be on their enemy list.


Less than four days. Unbelievable  question

I don't think Bannon was "aligned" with Preibus in any meaningful sense, except maybe as the best choice among bad choices. Bannon has no use for conventional Republicans, which Priebus was an exemplar of.

With Kelly now C o S you have to be concerned that the craziness will now end and Trump and company will now focus on policy.

Top rank military guys aren't so good at policy making.  They're more used to giving orders and anticipating quick results.   Look for more delay and finger-pointing while rank and file Rs come up with their own plans.


they're also better at strategy.  long face
