‘Do we report to the guy who’s in charge of running the White House? I don’t know. We work for Trump. It’s hard to say.’ Amazing.

If I can make a suggestion: I think reporting to Ryan Lizza, as Anthony Scaramucci does, is always a good idea.

It’s always difficult to figure out who’s the boss in a circular firing squad…

I can safely predict more “winning.” I almost feel bad for General Kelly; I don’t think he knows what he is in for, but he’ll soon find out he is no longer “in command” of anything.

Yep, she’s all about the “protocol”.

CHAOS THEORY…???

A double rod pendulum animation showing chaotic behavior. Starting the pendulum from a slightly different initial condition would result in a completely different trajectory. The double rod pendulum is one of the simplest dynamical systems that has chaotic solutions.

Chaos: When the present determines the future, but the approximate present does not approximately determine the future.

You call it “Chaos Theory,” I call it “Now Watch This Drive!”

I don’t understand why General Kelly would take the job without discussing the parameters of his authority and responsibilities. This is a setup for failure and you just know he’ll be the fall guy. I thought he was smarter than this.

    “I will do whatever the President and our new chief of staff
                Gen. Kelly ask me to do.”   

Well …

That’s reassuring ----

He’s used to dealing with the Marine Corps where the hot mess that is the West Wing would never happen.

What’s that Marine Corp motto again? Semper Fidelis. He ought to know this ain’t no Marine Corp.

Maybe this is the easiest way to exit this administration. I think Kelly found the right portal or wormhole to get to the other side. You can’t quit as head of DHS as easily as you can from this new position. Odds are, you’ll be kicked out before you even get your office phone working properly as Chief of Staff. Win-win.

Also, anyone that agreed to work for Putt Putt from the beginning can’t be all that smart. He scrapes the bottom of the barrel from all I can tell. Gen. Kelly liked the authoritarian role he’d have of going after immigrants, both legal and illegal. I’m not so sure he’s done much else at DHS in the months he was in charge of that behemoth multi-agency.
