'Terminates' First Suspected White House Leaker

---from the article---

Just days after newly appointed White House Communications Director Anthony "Mooch" Scaramucci took up his position, he is laying down the law, telling Politico Monday that there would be changes in his communications shop - but he was still evaluating the landscape.

  • "Senior people have gone to the comms people and said, leak this or leak that on this person or that person."

  • "The comms department reports to me. I report to the president. It has to stop, and I've told them that. If it doesn't stop, I'll fire all of you."

And today, it appears the first actions have taken placeby dismissing assistant press secretary Michael Short at a morning meeting.

Multiple White House sources tell Breitbart News that Short was a leaker, and worked closely with now former White House deputy chief of staff Katie Walsh - another RNC wing official who was terminated earlier this year for her own suspected leaking.


Short’s ouster is Scaramucci’s first warning shot to White House aides who have been perceived as disloyal to the president. In an echo of Trump’s not-so-subtle warning to Jeff Sessions about his status as attorney general, Scaramucci’s vow to “fire everybody” is a warning to staffers perceived as leakers.

“I’m going to fire everybody,

that’s how I’m going to do it,” Scaramucci said to reporters outside of the White House on Tuesday. “You’re either going to stop leaking or you’re going to be fired.”

now that is good news

About time. Sometimes the government makes easy things so hard!

Woo-HOO!
Great stuff, Mister EDM!
Cheers!

Leaking out of the white house is good, there should be no secrets in a free democracy. The work of the people belongs to the people, and we have the right to know. Secrecy breeds corruption and abuse of power, if it's damaging to the ruling party, then it is valuable for the people to know so we can vote accordingly.

odd...it's only good when the republicans are in power..
