Link to tweet
I am pleased to inform you that I have just named General/Secretary John F Kelly as White House Chief of Staff, the president wrote. He is a Great American.
Rumors of Priebus firing have been swirling in recent days, as new White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci openly feuded with him in just his first week on the job.

Priebus will split the GOP away from Trump. Next to go will be Price.

"Kelly was appointed Secretary of Homeland Security on January 20, 2017 by President Donald Trump. On July 28, 2017 Kelly was named Chief of Staff by President Trump."
I'm concerned that he always goes to the military to fill so many jobs.
