She’s tired of being fired by Donald Trump.

Former “Apprentice” contestant turned political aide Omarosa Manigault Newman threw a tantrum in the White House and demanded she be allowed to speak with the President as chief of staff John Kelly gave her the boot, sources told the Daily News.

.........................In a statement, the Secret Service denied it removed Newman from the White House, but confirmed — despite Sanders’ denial — that Newman was out immediately.

“The Secret Service was not involved in the termination process of Ms. Manigault Newman or the escort off of the complex. Our only involvement in this matter was to deactivate the individual’s pass which grants access to the complex,” the agency said.

The word is that when Priebus was Chief of Staff, she would wander in to Trump’s office with impunity to give him articles about who was criticizing him this week. This would lead to more time insane tweets and a more destabilized world.

paid vacay in 11 months? That was some deal making, huh?

On the other hand, the Secret Service just took away her secret decoder ring and executive washroom keys. Not to mention changing the locks on the doors. So she probably was a bit miffed. Wonder when HER book will be released??
