Washington, August 1 (RHC)-- In the United States, the White House has fired Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci -- just 10 days after he was hired -- capping a tumultuous week that saw Scaramucci repeatedly insult his colleagues in vulgar and sexually explicit terms.
The departure came just days after Trump fired Scaramucci’s White House rival, former Chief of Staff Reince Priebus, and less than two weeks after former Press Secretary Sean Spicer resigned in protest of Scaramucci’s appointment.
On Twitter, President Trump dismissed reports of turmoil within his administration, tweeting a boast about stock market and employment numbers and adding: "No WH chaos!"
Scaramucci was reportedly fired by John Kelly, just after the retired Marine Corps general was sworn in as chief of staff Monday. At the White House, President Trump praised Kelly over his brief tenure as head of the Department of Homeland Security.
