everything that goes with higher aides ... he is paranoid now... so escaping this will take some skill... unlikely Reince or Sean were leakers...

Every company, information leaks which is same as Whitehouse and some one who is not directly impacted is leaking ... again I donot know for sure ...

13. Hmm..It's best not to state things as "facts" until you know that they are.

Speculation is fine, but you need to indicate that upfront by prefacing your statement with "I think" or "in my opinion" or something like that. Just sayin'.

I don't need to see "who immigrants are" since my mother's parents spoke no English at all when were they first came to America.

What I pointed out is not really a grammar issue. It's just a matter of adding a couple of words so people understand what you are trying to say.

5. Let's see how this plays out

In the first 48 hours, the popular media have been falling all over themselves thinking this is The Pivot at long last, and the Trump White House is about to get on a professional footing.* Kelly is being hailed as the hero on a white horse who will bring all the disparate factions to heel, and end all the bickering and in-fighting.

Let's look at how that's going: Jared holds a meeting with staffers telling them that leakers are a bunch of no-good no-goodniks, and anyone caught leaking is gonna get fired toot fuckin' sweet. His recorded remarks are immediately leaked. Ivanka tweets out that she's looking forward to working "alongside" (not under) Kelly. Now, I don't know if Kelly believes the hype about himself or if he has a more realistic estimation of what's possible for him as chief of staff. But the more it's out there that Kelly is the top dog, the harder it's going to be for him to knock down stories about Jarvanka going around him directly to Daddy dearest.

Things will, inevitably, come to a head, and Kelly will either have to quit because he's in an untenable position, or he'll get fired for trying to boss around Daddy's Little Girl.

*Fat chance and ha ha!

He was an anomaly -- and that appears to be the problem! Keep banging those rocks together, guys!
