…and a Great Leader. John has also done a spectacular job at Homeland Security. He has been a true star of my Administration

Trump praised Kelly, a retired Marine Corps general, for his performance thus far as the Secretary of Homeland Security.

Priebus’ removal comes just one day after White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci went on a fiery tirade against Priebus. Scaramucci stated, “Reince is a fucking paranoid schizophrenic, a paranoiac.” Regarding Preibus’ continued involvement in the White House, he said, “Reince Priebus — if you want to leak something — he’ll be asked to resign very shortly.”
