Reince Priebus is the latest member of the Trump administration to leave town, but he more than likely won’t be the last.
President Trump remains unhappy with Attorney General Jeff Sessions for recusing himself from the Russia investigation, so smart money says he’ll be the next to go.
Fox News’ Dana Perino has a big prediction about where Sessions will wind up…
From BizPac Review:
General John Kelly — the widely-respected Secretary of Homeland Security — was just named to replace Priebus as White House chief of staff in an unbelievable shakeup.
While the liberal media is gleefully foaming at the mouth slamming the Trump White House as being in “chaos,” Perino thinks there’s a method to the madness.
“I think that this was all set up for a few weeks because the president has been so upset about Jeff Sessions and his recusal in the Russia investigation,” Perino said on The Five. “The Republicans and conservatives that came to Jeff Sessions’ defense this week all said, ‘But he’s doing the best on the issue we care about most, and that is immigration.’”
Perino continued: “Well, where can Jeff Sessions do even more on immigration? As the Secretary of Homeland Security. So I think what they’re going to try to do is move Sessions over to DHS, and then how can conservatives complain? And then you have a new AG … who can fire [Robert] Mueller.”
Interesting.
Trump replaces Priebus with Dept. of Homeland Secretary John Kelly, then moves AG Sessions to head up the DHS?
Talk about high-stakes musical chairs.
However, Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley – chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee – basically warned Trump that if he fires Jeff Sessions he won’t get another attorney general.
What do you make of this?
Do you think it would be a smart move?
