11. all executive "officers" are sworn in, per the constitution:
Mon Jul 31, 2017, 07:38 PM
Jul 2017

Article VI

3: The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.


the chief of staff is the executive officer in charge of the "executive office of the president".

But two things...what the fuck was Ivanka thinking with those breast implants they look horrible on her.

And second why is she separated from her husband by that other woman? Do they not like each other?

If I was in that room with my wife we would be together.

She's always been a Republican, but she had a really good reputation as someone who was reasonable and would work with Democrats.

For what happened next, I'll let Howard Dean explain:

I used to work in a plastic surgery office...women would insist on having those too big for their rib cage and have stripper boob effect..

at first I thought she just needed a better bra under that top, but I don't think that helps with implants.

what's with the Trump females and the 5 inch heels. ALL THE TIME. No one serious dresses like that anymore except when dressed up.

We've seen it before. Just no one was deplorably stupid enough to vote for it.

I haven't checked his bio but I assume that Gen. Kelly was a chief of staff at some point in his years in the Marines. A military chief of staff RUNS the staff. Every principal staff member (with the exception of a very few personal staff, e.g. the JAG, the chaplain, the IG) are rated by the chief of staff.

Gen. Kelly now has two staff members - the daughter and the son-in-law - that assume they don't have to answer to the chief of staff. When Gen. Kelly realizes he is only in charge of part of the staff, he will either have to quit or swallow his pride.
