[GoldenEye 007]

Is Manchin pro-life because Dems already support him right?



FUCKING LOL

He's pro-life, but has resisted Planned Parenthood defunding efforts.

 

[broz0rs]

lol Mooch. In all seriousness, I hope he can reconcile with his wife now because she's 9 months pregnant and this Trump bullshit ruined their marriage.

 

[Joe Shlabotnik]

Mooch was like one of those GAF juniors who takes over the forum for two weeks after they're approved and then goes down in a ball of flame.

 

[Dominican Power]

We hating on Joy Reid now? Fuck y'all.

Kelly putting his foot down, if so.

Actually this just got confirmed.

 

[benicillin]

lololol it's been a week or two and he's ALREADY OUT

MY GOD

 

[Ourobolus]

So now he's out of a job and single

from NYT:

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.
It was not clear whether Mr. Scaramucci will remain employed at the White House in another position or will leave altogether.

[kirblar]

His resignation letter: My only regret is.. That I have.. Boneitis

edit: goddamnit I got beaten lol

 

[Thaedolus]

Haaaaahahahahahahaha

 

[Kusagari]

Hey, at least Mooch had the week of his life.

For one week he was finally the center of attention he craves to be.

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

The Mooch is loose

 

[nature boy]

So the Mooch is hired by Ivanka and Jared and Kelly boots him out day 1?

Damn son.

Wonder what will happen to Bannon.

 

[whyamihere]

WE DIDN'T EVEN GET THE SNL MOOCH WE DESERVED

 

[Barzul]

Well Kelly is certainly laying it down. Figures...Trump does love generals.

 

[Ourobolus]

WE DIDN'T EVEN GET THE SNL MOOCH WE DESERVED

I'm sure there will be a nice skit involving a revolving door at some point.

 

[Incognito]

r o f l. although good move by Kelly.

 

[BronsonLee]

Where's that comic of the revolving door and the knife in the back

 

[Bonen no Max'd]

did Mooch just get in, get Priebus kicked out, and then resign?

on a side note, I'm putting an application in for a new job at the White House, afraid I might be overqualified tho

 

[whyamihere]

Congratulations @Saracmucci on your new job at Fusion!

 

[chadskin]

No W.H. chaos!

 

[Barzul]

No way Mooch resigned. He gave up way too much for that role....he got tossed.

 

[Joe Shlabotnik]

LA got the 2028 Olympics? That'll be delightful.

Priebus was on his way out, the Spicer and other guy resignations were directly a result of Mooch.

[Blader]

Yep, NYT report said it was Kelly's decision.

 

[Drkirby]

That was what, 1 week? What day did he start?

Kelly off to a good start.

 

[VendettaRed07]

WE DIDN'T EVEN GET THE SNL MOOCH WE DESERVED

And not nearly enough Colbert segments dedicated to him.

Fuck this. I feel robbed.

 

[FyreWulff]

dude literally alpha male'd himself out of a job

i can't stop laughing

 

[Prof. Bathtub]

Now we'll get a cycle of "Kelly is a moderating influence??" reporting. Though I doubt trouble/idiocy will take a week off in this admin, so something else will take its place.

 

[nature boy]

That was what, 1 week? What day did he start?

He never formally started, was waiting for some business deals to be approved.

 

[Stinkles]

Hahahahahahaha



lolololol

 

[GoldenEye 007]

Probably first sane thing to come out of this WH all year.

 

[whyamihere]

Hahahahahahaha



lolololol

literally me rn

 

[FyreWulff]

if you think about it though, it makes sense. Kelly didn't want people going "well, who's really calling the shots, you or Mooch". So you get rid of the guy that's trying to get between you and the President. Military folks don't like chain of command being thrown out.

 

[thepotatoman]

EDIT: Oh, wrong Kelly.

 

[Ogodei]

Now we'll get a cycle of "Kelly is a moderating influence??" reporting. Though I doubt trouble/idiocy will take a week off in this admin, so something else will take its place.

That is the concern, but he'll only be "moderating" up until the first time he crosses Trump on something, then he'll get put in the Sessions/McMaster/Bannon doghouse.

 

[VendettaRed07]

dude literally alpha male'd himself out of a job

And out of a marriage

 

[GurgleBot20]

He was rude to cabinet members..
He was inexperienced..
and he didn't last a week..

But still, there goes the best damn Trump Cabinet Official that ever served!

 

[Crocodile]

I come in here and start seeing people shitting on Joy Reid? Fuck y'all!

Also LOL @ the Mooch being gone

 

[Joe Shlabotnik]

That is the concern, but he'll only be "moderating" up until the first time he crosses Trump on something, then he'll get put in the Sessions/McMaster/Bannon doghouse.

Yeppppppp

Everyone gets, like, one free move when they start. Then Trump starts to get "annoyed".

 

[RumbleHumble]

NOOOO! THE MOOCH HAD NOTHING ELSE LEFT! WHY SO CRUEL TO THE MOOCH!

He flew too close to the coke and not close enough to the sun.

EXCLUSIVE: Kelly called Comey to express anger over firing, sources say

New White House chief of staff John Kelly was so upset with how President Donald Trump handled the firing of FBI Director James Comey that Kelly called Comey afterward and said he was considering resigning, according to two sources familiar with a conversation between Kelly and Comey.

Both sources cautioned that it was unclear how serious Kelly, then the secretary of homeland security, was about resigning himself.
"John was angry and hurt by what he saw and the way (Comey) was treated," one of the sources said.

And here, potentially, is Kelly crossing Trump already (well, he did in the past, but that will make little difference).

 

[Ziltoidia 9]

Got new hearing aids finally and Mooch is out. Good day so far.

 

[StopMakingSense]

Yeppppppp

He'll get tired of Kelly telling him "No"

Well, won't be long until Kelly is in the doghouse.
