Trump To Reporters: Chief Of Staff John Kelly Is Out

Soon-to-be former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly

I guess it’s official – White House Chief of Staff John Kelly is out (very soon).

From The Washington Post:

At the South Lawn on Saturday, President Trump said he’ll announce Kelly’s replacement in the next day or so. Kelly, a retired four-star Marine Corps general, has been the president’s top aide since late July 2017 and has had a rocky tenure.

Trump has chafed at Kelly’s management style and resisted some of his moves to instill discipline in the West Wing and contain chaos. In recent months, the chief of staff’s power has ebbed, and administration policies and decisions have been guided more by the president’s gut instincts than by Kelly’s processes.

Trump is widely expected to poach Vice President Mike Pence’s Chief of Staff, Nick Ayres, to replace.

Log Cabin Republicans: Trump’s LGBTQ Attacks Are Just “Hiccups”

Jerri Ann Henry of the Log Cabin Republicans

Newly-installed executive director of the Log Cabin Republicans, Jerri Ann Henry, characterized Trump’s almost constant attacks on the LGBTQ community since taking office as “hiccups.”

Via Hill TV’s The Rising:

“I think there’s a lot of ups and downs in the last two years with some of the administration’s actions.

“He has been more vocally supportive than any Republican candidate or president, but there have been a few things that I haven’t loved that the administration has done, and some things that I think we can do some work on. I want to make sure that we have the opportunity to improve on those things, not just fight over them.”

She added, “Some of the issues where we can make major improvements are just the nuances.

“You know, marriage has only been legal for a short time, and we’ve seen a few hiccups here and there how that’s been rolled out with the military, with the State Department, visas, and how they handle married LGBT partners and non-married LGBT partners for diplomats. That’s something we need a lot of work on.”

I see – it’s just a matter of ‘hiccups’ and ‘nuances…’

Charlottesville Neo-Nazi Found Guilty Of Murder

James Alex Fields (mug shot via the Albemarle-Charlottesville Regional Jail.)

The Neo-nazi who drove his car into a crowd of people a the Charlottesville rally in 2017 has been found guilty of first-degree murder.

From ABC News:

Suspect James Alex Fields was on trial for the death and injuries he is accused of causing when he drove his car into a crowd of counter-protesters, killing Heather Heyer.

He was found guilty on all of the charges he was facing, ABC affiliate WSET reports, which included first-degree murder as well as eight other charges relating to injuries and one relating to fleeing the scene of an accident.

Fields’ sentencing will come at a later date, and he faces life in prison.

Fields’ defense lawyers tried to claim ‘self-defense’ saying he became afraid after the rally, led by white nationalists and neo-nazis turned violent.

Entered into evidence during the trial were text messages Fields sent to his mother leading up to and during the rally. “We’re not the one [sic] who need to be careful,” he texted his mother the day before the event, along with a picture of Adolf Hitler.

The jury also heard a jailhouse conversation between Fields and his mom. When his mother mentioned that Heyer’s mother had lost a daughter due to his actions, he responded, “It doesn’t f*cking matter.”

The 21-year-old still faces 30 federal charges, separate from this trial, relating to hate crimes.

RuPaul For Oscar Host!

Kevin Hart stepped down from hosting the 2019 Academy Awards this morning after homophobic language from the past came to light.

“I have made the choice to step down from hosting this year’s Oscar’s….this is because I do not want to be a distraction on a night that should be celebrated by so many amazing talented artists,” he wrote on Twitter. “I sincerely apologize to the LGBTQ community for my insensitive words from my past.”

“I’m sorry that I hurt people. I am evolving and want to continue to do so,” Kevin continued. “My goal is to bring people together not tear us apart. Much love & appreciation to the Academy. I hope we can meet again.”

The Academy is now looking for a new host for the February 24th event on ABC.

I personally nominate 3-time-Emmy Award winner RuPaul 🙂

Rex Tillerson: Trump Is “Undisciplined” With Instinct To Violate Law

Terminated Secretary of State Rex Tillerson chatted with CBS News’s Bob Schieffer in Houston about his time in the Trump administration.

In the interview, Tillerson calls Trump “undisciplined” with an uncontrollable urge to “violate the law.”

The Washington Post has the details:

“What was challenging for me coming from the disciplined, highly process-oriented Exxon Mobil corporation,” Tillerson said, was “to go to work for a man who is pretty undisciplined, doesn’t like to read, doesn’t read briefing reports, doesn’t like to get into the details of a lot of things, but rather just kind of says, ‘This is what I believe.’”

Perhaps the most damning quote came when Tillerson talked about how Trump as president regularly attempted to do things that violated the law. “So often, the president would say, ‘Here’s what I want to do, and here’s how I want to do it’ and I would have to say to him, ‘Mr. President, I understand what you want to do, but you can’t do it that way. It violates the law.”
