So was Reince actually told he was fired or was that announced by tweet? I would bet $$$$ he found out via twitter. I thought I had missed something. Stepped away for an hour and had a ticker saying he was fired. I missed the part where they announced he was out..... seems they did too.

LOL. I assume this is a joke about leaks.

I'm not sure if this is true or if he's just trying to save face. I don't know, I kind of believe it. Why on earth would he want to stay after that scaramucci interview?

I'm hopelessly lost at this point. Why would he go with them today if he had already resigned? At least they brought him back?

So he was on the return flight with Trump. And apparently was hanging out in a black SUV when the tweet went out.

So they said their goodbyes on the plane, Reince leaves and Trump tweets.

But it doesn't make any sense. Why would he fly out with him today then?

I bet on the wrong person getting canned. I thought Sessions would be the casualty of the week.

I don't get why Kelly would go for this. Will he still be DHS secretary? No. I wonder if Trump even ran it by him first.

If he fires Bannon, I'm putting money on it Breitbart turns on him HARD. And without his alt-right minions, I don't know who will be left in his corner to defend him. I hope it happens. Im leaning more towards Bannon resigning. He was an ally of Priebus in the WH, didn't want Scaramucci, and can't be happy about that New Yorker interview.

So Reince is the third RNC guy out in the last week.
I wonder if this is the start of a separation between Trump and the Republicans. In my dreams, I know.

I hate when people are humiliated. It's the teacher in me. I hate it, too. Even when they are bad people.

How long do we think Kelly will last in the position? I'm wagering not longer than a month.

Who wouldn't want to be accused of sucking their own cock? I mean I would be impressed that someone would think I'm that flexible. Maybe it was actually meant as a compliment?

Thanks all for the good wishes! I'm home now and the good news is that I'm not in too much pain and NO nausea (which was my big problem last time with anesthesia). Bad news is that the cartilage tear is worse than it looked on the MRI so the repair we had planned for is not an option. It's cleaned up for now but the surgeon says I'll need a cartilage transplant. Just drives home the importance of health insurance.
