Newly-appointed White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci has promised to contact investigators over what he says is an illegal leak of his financial disclosure form. The comment came in a since-deleted tweet that mentioned the Twitter handle of White House chief of staff Reince Priebus.

Scaramucci tweeted Wednesday night: "In light of the leak of my financial disclosure info which is a felony, I will be contacting @FBI and the @JusticeDept #swamp @Reince45." After removing the tweet, Scaramucci denied that it was a threat to Priebus, writing that the deleted tweet was "was public notice to leakers that all Sr Adm officials are helping to end illegal leaks."

Politico reported earlier Wednesday on the former Wall Street financier's financial holdings. The report was based off of Scaramucci's financial disclosure form.

2. The WHCD calling for the FBI and the JD to investigate the WHCOS.....

would be considered an act of insanity in any other administration. It barely even stands out in this group.

4. He looks like

a wanna-be enforcer for the Mob. Fits in perfectly with the crooks in this administration. Do ANY of them have integrity, intelligence, self-respect? Seems they are willing to do anything for their paycheck, even sell the country out. How do they look their children in the face, while lying like this?
