The White House’s new communications director Anthony Scaramucci had harsh words — to say the least — about some of the top figures in President Donald Trump’s administration.
In an unfiltered interview with the New Yorker on Thursday, Scaramucci took aim particularly at chief strategist Steve Bannon and White House chief of staff Reince Priebus.
Speaking on whether or not he took the White House job for media attention, he jumped on Bannon. “I’m not Steve Bannon, I’m not trying to suck my own c–k,” he said.
The White House’s new communications director Anthony Scaramucci had harsh words — to say the least — about some of the top figures in President Donald Trump’s administration.
In an unfiltered interview with the New Yorker on Thursday, Scaramucci took aim particularly at chief strategist Steve Bannon and White House chief of staff Reince Priebus.
Speaking on whether or not he took the White House job for media attention, he jumped on Bannon. “I’m not Steve Bannon, I’m not trying to suck my own c–k,” he said.
“They’ll all be fired by me,” he said, referring to White House leakers. “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.”
“Reince is a f—ing paranoid schizophrenic, a paranoiac.”
The in-fighting drama of the White House escalated on Wednesday, when Lizza tweeted that Scaramucci was spotted having dinner with President Trump, First Lady Melania Trump, Sean Hannity, and former Fox News co-president Bill Shine, citing a senior White House official as his source. According to the report, Scaramucci called Lizza shortly after, asking who his source was, and seemed to think Priebus was the culprit, not just for Lizza’s tweet, but for a Politico report that claimed Scaramucci is worth as much as $85 million in assets and that he took a $5 million salary from his hedge fund SkyBridge Capital in the first half of the year.
In a since-deleted tweet, Scaramucci wrote, “In light of the leak of my financial info which is a felony. I will be contacting @FBI and the @TheJusticeDept #swamp @Reince45.”
He also called into CNN’s “New Day” on Thursday morning and, without mincing words, again accused Priebus of leaking the information (it’s worth noting, however, that the financial disclosure form is a public document. Politico said it obtained the information through the normal channels).
“If Reince wants to explain that he’s not a leaker, let him do that,” he said on CNN. “Let me tell you something about myself — I am a straight shooter, and I’ll go right to the heart of the matter.”
Priebus, Scaramucci theorized, was worried that he wasn’t invited to the dinner. “‘Oh, Bill Shine is coming in. Let me leak the f—ing thing and see if I can c–k-block these people the way I c–k-blocked Scaramucci for six months,'” Scaramucci said in Thursday’s shocking interview.
Former White House press secretary Sean Spicer, an ally of Priebus, resigned last week when Scaramucci was appointed to his post.

For a man who chooses to wear ladies' glasses, he seems to talk about cocks a lot.
Scaramucci Wears Women's SunglassesSpeaking to reporters outside the White House on a sunny Tuesday, communications director Anthony Scaramucci threatened an executive branch purge.“I’m going to fire everybody,” he said. “If they don’t stop leaking, I’m going to put them out on Pennsylvania Avenue.” All the while, mirrored shades with tortoise-shell temples masked his eyes in Terminator-fashion. We’ve tracked down those signature polarized aviators, and we have some good news for the ladies out there: You, too, can trigger your inner Mooch. The Oakley Feedback shades—listed on the company’s website as Women’s “Active Sunglasses”—are $200, with free shipping and free returns. Oakley touts the frames as “the first wire frame sunglass that is truly designed for the active woman,” designed with an “ultra-feminine classic teardrop shape.” And reviewers of these nearly five-star sunnies are all praise. “These glasses are classy,” writes one happy customer. “Light filtering glasses will turn heads.” But before you score these shades, we ask you: Have you ever wished you had the moxie to accuse your co-worker of committing a crime without reason? Have you ever wanted to mind-meld with your boss so badly that you began mirroring his gesticulations and speech patterns? If so, look no further. These glasses have got you covered. Go ahead. Get the aviators. Unleash the Mooch. THE WEEKLY STANDARD has reached out to Scaramucci for comment. We will update if he responds. |
And here he is, out and proud, wearing his lady glasses:

Sounds like Mooch came to the White House to chew bubblegum and kick ass ... and he's all out of bubblegum.

Look at that post of yours! It must have taken you 15-20 minutes to gather the info and format it. To do what ... make a point about sunglasses?
What's next from you? Melania's shoes don't go with her purse? You're as nit-picky as the MSM.

No. It was ready to go from the WS article. Maybe I'm a lot faster at formatting than you are, largely because I use a text editor capable of search/replace using regular expressions and my subtle use of browser internals.
There is something notable about a loose cannon strutting around the WH in ladies' sunglasses while ranting about Bannon sucking his own dick and Reince Priebus trying to cock-block him.
Defend the Mooch all you want. He's already turned himself into a vulgar laughingstock.
This is how the Trump presidency fades away into its own ridiculousness and Trump is defeated or impeached.
Mooch is a truly terrible choice. I can see why Spicer just quit outright.
#5. To: Tooconservative (#4)

Trump is very poorly served by most of the people around him. I'd say that Ivanka, Kutchner and Bannon have served him well. The rest have been weak, feckless and self serving.
This new guy, Scaramouche...whatever his name is...is a real gem. Sounds like a mafiosi.
To save himself, Trump may need to pull a Louis XIV "Je regne seul."
Meanwhile, the Republicans have managed to self-immolate in the Senate over Obamacare, essentially ensuring that we will have single-payer government-run health care at the end of all of it. Given that I think that's the right solution anyway, I suppose I should be grateful that the Republicans are such weak sisters.
#6. To: Tooconservative (#4)
Defend the Mooch all you want.
I will. Remember this -- 6 months of White House leaks with no end in sight. Trump is pissed. I would be, too.
If it takes a vulgar, foul-mouthed, kick- ass, Italian pit bull to straighten out that mess, then so be it. Sean Spicer wasn't up to that task.

Nope. They voted on that (to expose the Democrats) and it didn't pass -- 57 "no" votes with the remaining Democrats voting "present". Not one "yes" vote.

Trump causes most of his own problems with his huge ginormous mouth flapping away and his late-night tweeting. It's him far more than the leakers at this point.

Spicer was a press spokesman, not a chief of staff, a security specialist, etc.
I'm wondering if the Mooch will last even a week. He is truly awful at press relations for a communications director. Foul-mouthed, falsely accusing Priebus of leaking info when the info came from Mooch's own paperwork, etc.
I think Mooch is a Trump ass-kisser who is favored by Jared/Ivanka to get Priebus/Bannon out of the way.
I think he'll fail and they'll still be there when Mooch is sent back to NYC wearing his lady-glasses.
#10. To: misterwhite (#8)
When I say "at the end of it", I am thinking of the long game.
They're not going to agree on anything viable now. So the can will be kicked, the system will rot, and come the next deep recession, the whole rotten tree will collapse and be replaced, under emergency conditions, with single-payer.
Obamacare was just the first step in a long, long march.
The Republicans have one chance - one - to take it all in a different direction. They are failing miserably, and what they finally pass will not save the system or change the course. It will merely light the slow fuse that finally ends in single payer. Watch it happen. I'll be here pointing it out over the years as it comes to pass.
#11. To: Tooconservative, redleghunter (#1)
Wow. The media are piranha on steroids. SOMEONE scrutinized then created this chart solely to supposedly emasculate Mooch?
Bizarre. I'd bet the reporter is a homofascist.
ANYHOO, those are cool glasses.
Costanza's were NOT.

Yup. But by now it's easy to see that there is a hidden, secret party without a label who's taken control of policy and agency: The MARXIST-GLOBALISTS.
The (R) vs. (D) is all just a blatant charade.
0bamaCare passed because The Fix was in; ONE SINGLE Justice (Roberts) was blackmailed into casting the final (un-constitutional) vote. I reckon he drew the short straw. The SAME illegal bogus SCOTUS votes were cast regarding Abortion as you may recall.

Yes, agreed.
The GOP is failing because the Party is a fraud. It has been infiltrated by traitors for several years. Senators like Stain, Graham, Murkowski, etal aren't really "Republican," nor voting for their constituency.

For women. They are obviously designed for women. Tortoise shell at the temples, that sky-blue I-just-douched color to the lenses?
They are lady glasses.

I didn't think it was obvious at all that they were lady glasses. You do? really?
Tortoise shell at the temples, that sky-blue I-just-douched color to the lenses?
Heh! NOW I'm getting myself a pair. The Mooch is a trend-setter!
Btw -- what did you think about his wife announcing their divorce?
If his opinion on Trump was enough to break up this or ANY marriage, there wasn't much there. I believe these days everyone is going to make sure they get their 15 minutes while they can -- especially rewarded are those who might be able to make Trump appear like a beddy bad man.
#15. To: Liberator (#14)

She did not want to be a political wifey. Probably everyone she knows is a hardcore lib Dem besides.
Wall Street is full of these types. Mooch is just another Dem trying to tongue Trump's ass. And Trump seems to know that.
I thought it was interesting that Trump already cut Mooch off at the knees by giving Kelly full authority and guaranteeing that all WH traffic must go through Kelly to get to Trump. We'll see how long that PDT promise lasts.

Now obvious...Hypocritical wealthy feminazi socialist-capitalists.

Could be right. On BOTH counts. Maybe the guy is just ambitious and egotist enough to be an Enforcer for the President as well and take it out on Ministry of Propaganda OR the rats on his staff.

Hard for me to gauge the potential dynamics yet. I don't think Mooch imagined he'd be THE guy at the very top of the pyramid in any case. Trump probably gave him a pat on the azz and reassured him not to worry about losing the authoritah to kick butt.

I almost think Trump hired Mooch just so he can humiliate him.
Trump hates toadies.
I'm seeing reports that Trump wanted Priebus to get into a cage fight with Mooch after that insulting interview. Priebus wouldn't so now he's gone.
Trump loves to torment his toadies. He treats them like court jesters.
You know, a Scaramouche.

"Mooch" was just fired according to a NY Times alert.
#20. To: redleghunter, hondo68 (#19)
That's just too funny.
Trump built him up for fun and took him out. Mooch was complaining that Trump made him apologize every single time he saw him for having insulted him when he first ran in the GOP primary.
Maybe we've reached the Lord of the Flies phase of this presidency. : )
#21. To: Tooconservative, canceled pending employment (#20)
While he he had already stepped into the public eye, Scaramucci’s official start date was set for Aug. 15, meaning his tenure has ended before it officially began.
Mooch was never WH comm director at all. He was to start the job Aug. 15.
Trump did get rid of Spicer and Preibus in the process.

Et tu, Moochus? LOL
#23. To: Tooconservative, locker room banter (#22)
Trump just temp hired the Mooch for a few days of "locker room banter". He misses the publicity about, grabbing the kitty and such.

I just want to see Trump's tweet about what a great guy the Mooch is, how he enjoyed working with him, blah-blah-blah. And too bad about him getting divorced with his newborn baby and all.
It should be epic.

Well with those faggy shades I'm sure Mooch was already targeted by the General. :-)
I kind of like the old time chain of command exercised by Kelly. "Oh you don't report to me? Off to the weather station on Ice Station Zebra.
Lol. Good some military discipline will do that disaster of a cabinet some good.
#29. To: redleghunter (#28)
You have to laugh after Mooch made such an ass out of himself over Priebus and Bannon and then the first thing Kelly does is fire him and have him escorted off the property by the Secret Service.

Yes, and I know the General Officer mindset. When a new sheriff is in town, the last thing you need is a loose canon. I've seen subordinate commanders get the axe early on in a new command. Kelly is used to good order and discipline. Mooch seems like he does not fit the mold. So he got axed.
#31. To: Willie Green (#0)
“I’m not Steve Bannon, I’m not trying to suck my own c–k,” he said.
That's a real class act. Real classy.

Kelly locked the Oval Office door and is making Dapper Don do his homework without the other kids drifting in and out to distract him. LOL.

Another good quality in 'raising' officers in the military. We only serve a fraction of our time really in command billets and the rest 'staffing the Army.'
Meaning Kelly probably was an XO or CoS at every level of command more than he commanded Marines. Some of the greatest leadership challenges involve leading a staff to solve problems.
This may be Trump's first good decision on personnel since taking the oath.

Trump needed a strict organizer because the WH just isn't some quirky little dog-eat-dog personality-driven real estate shop in NYC.
I think the only guy Trump will take this discipline from is a respected military type. And it seems Kelly may have figured this out.
You have to expect some conflict at some point. That will be revealing.
I do think Trump realizes his WH is failing on a number of fronts and that it needs some strict organization.
If Kelly fails and resigns in disgust, we are probably in Big Trouble.
