Reince Priebus is out.
I would like to thank Reince Priebus for his service and dedication to his country. We accomplished a lot together and I am proud of him!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 28, 2017
This:
"I resigned privately yesterday," Reince Priebus tells me.

But also this:
White House staff found out the same way we all did: Twitter

My guess is that Reince is lying, because also this:
LOOOOOOOOOOOL I haven't seen this nugget from my friend confirmed but it sounds about right pic.twitter.com/uxslyyBB5g

Don’t believe for a second that Reince didn’t find out five minutes before Trump tweeted it.
Post script:
Reince Priebus was the shortest-serving White House chief of staff in American history, edging out Ken Duberstein.

189 days.
Meanwhile, Secretary of Homeland Security, John Kelly, is in:
I am pleased to inform you that I have just named General/Secretary John F Kelly as White House Chief of Staff. He is a Great American….
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 28, 2017
…and a Great Leader. John has also done a spectacular job at Homeland Security. He has been a true star of my Administration
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 28, 2017
Kelly is a son of a bitch. He’s a General and the former commander of the U.S. Southern Command, and my guess is, he’ll hate Anthony Scaramucci within a week, and Trump will hate him within two weeks.
Trump seems to have literally typed out tweets firing Reince & announcing Kelly as CoS from AF1 doorway on live TV. https://t.co/mPhig3b4Ts

In case you missed it, in a chilling speech earlier today, our goddamn President encouraged the police to use violence.

We’ll have more on this when it’s not a goddamn Friday evening. But I will leave you with my favorite news of the day:
