Following the ouster of White House Director of Communications Anthony Scaramucci, the White House said he was removed over his 'inappropriate comments'. Scaramucci, 53, who was appointed as the White House Director of Communications only 10 days ago and was reporting directly to the president, was in the news for the past few days, especially for the "unparliamentary" language used by him against his White House colleagues in an interview, where he threatened to fire everyone from the White House who leaked information.
"The President certainly felt that Anthony's comments were inappropriate for a person in that position. He didn't want to burden General Kelly also with that line of succession," said White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders. The White House announced that John Kelly, 67, a retired marine general, has taken over as the new White House chief of staff, replacing Reince Priebus who was fired after continued feud among the senior White House staffers came out in the open.
Kelly, who was previously the Homeland Security Secretary, was picked for the new job by Trump on July 29. Sanders said Trump has given full authority to Kelly, and he'll make determinations inside the White House. "General Kelly I think will bring new structure to the White House and discipline and strength. We are all really excited to work with him," she said.
