Sources close to Priebus say he offered his resignation to the President privately yesterday (CNN reports).

Now Kelly gets to give the president his meds. What a demotion from running Homeland Security to running a nursery at the WH.

Will he get a mini-fridge from the WH? They are highly coveted!(see Spicer)

 

Howard Laswell on power ...

 Trump unhappy with Priebus for not 'returning fire' at Scaramucci: report
 

President Trump was reportedly unhappy with former chief of staff Reince Priebus for not “returning fire” at White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci following an explosive interview with the New Yorker this week.

An adviser to Trump told The Wall Street Journal that was Trump “dismissive” of Priebus for not firing back at Scaramucci. Scaramucci unloaded on Priebus in the interview with New Yorker writer Ryan Lizza, calling the then-chief of staff a “f——— paranoid schizophrenic" and a "paranoiac."

 

“They’ll all be fired by me,” he said of the White House communications staff. “I fired one guy the other day. I have three to four people I’ll fire tomorrow. I’ll get to the person who leaked that to you. Reince Priebus — if you want to leak something — he’ll be asked to resign very shortly.”

Earlier on Thursday, Scaramucci insinuated that Priebus was behind the “leak” of his personal financial disclosure forms. A reporter said the forms were publicly available.
Priebus was dismissed from the White House on Friday as Trump announced on Twitter that he had chosen Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly as his new chief of staff.

They had been talking about it for a few days apparently. Most likely he was presented with the option to resign.

Senior aides to President Trump see Kelly as a disciplined manager who will run a tight ship in the West Wing, and whose management style could help reduce the frequency of leaks that the president and his team find so harmful. 

“The president has tried multiple times to get the secretary to take this position, for the past couple of months,” a Trump administration official, who was familiar with the president’s thinking on hiring Kelly, told The Daily Beast. 

“Given how close things were to going off the rails, we really needed the general in this job,” the official added, speaking anonymously because he was not allowed to discuss the decision by name.

The official said Trump had grown to rely on Kelly in cabinet meetings to bring discipline to the conversation, since taking the DHS job. 

Bannon, likewise, respects Kelly as a “tough” military officer, a West Wing official noted. The former also served in the military, and fetishizes military history and often talks gratuitously in military language in regular conversation.

But the two are not ideological kindred spirits. Bannon is a staunch nationalist who takes an incredibly hardline stance on immigration while Kelly has praised an Obama-era program that temporarily protects some undocumented immigrants from deportation. Kelly’s rhetoric on immigration often focuses on the danger it poses to migrants themselves, rather than to Americans.

What a drag. Gets fired then has to go on to to defend former boss.

Reince to Blitzer on his greatest accomplishment; "getting everyone in the West Wing moving together in the right direction"

 

down the toilet?

out the door?

Stockholm syndrome or Trump gave him a little treatment.
