2/7/18: Great news! A top aide is leaving his White House job and there are no allegations he met with Russians or secretly jetted to Moscow or took any big payoffs from friends of Vladimir Putin!
The aide in question is Rob Porter, who unfortunately does have two ex-wives who went public with accusations of domestic abuse. A third woman made similar claims but asked that her identity remain secret.
Naturally, when these allegations surfaced, White House Chief of Staff John Kelly was quick to…come to Porter’s defense!
“Rob Porter,” he told reporters, “is a man of true integrity and honor, and I can’t say enough good things about him. He is a friend, a confidante and a trusted professional. I am proud to serve alongside him.”
In other words, these attacks were just
more faaaaaaaaaake……

Porter and Trump. |
…Porter’s second ex-wife reveals an emergency restraining order issued in 2010 against him. After the couple separated, she says Porter returned to her apartment, smashed a glass door to gain entry and left only when he heard her call 911 and provide her name and address.
And…uh…Porter’s first ex-wife describes him as “verbally, emotionally and physically abusive,” pretty much the Terrible Husband Trifecta. To support her claims, she provides reporters with a picture of herself, sporting a black eye and swollen cheek, taken during her marriage.
After hearing Kelly defend Porter, his second ex has this to add: “Rob is in fact charming and intelligent and diligent and extremely good at his job.”
Okay…that line is definitely going to show up on Fox Newwwwwwwww….
“And, in capital letters, abusive and
manipulative and toxic in his personal relationships,” she adds.

STILL, YOU MIGHT ARGUE that Donald J. Trump is getting the hang of picking the right people for the right jobs. After all, Porter is better than Carl Higbie, who had to leave his post in January.

We all know how much the president wants to clamp down on illegal immigrants pouring into this country, each and every one intent on doing us harm. Also: taking jobs in hotels and making beds.
And picking strawberries.
Higbie had some great ideas about how to curb the tide and you can see why his ideas might have appealed to Trump, who just happens to be a big fan of Norwegian immigrants, who just happen to be white. In an episode on a radio show, ironically called Sound of Freedom, Higbie had this to say:
What’s so
wrong with wanting to put up a fence and saying, “hey, everybody with a gun, if
you want to go shoot people coming across our border illegally, you can do it
for free.” And you can do it on your own, and you’ll be under the command of
the, you know, National Guard unit or a Border Patrol, I think stick a fence
six feet high with signs on it in both English and Spanish and it says “if you
cross this border, this is the American border, you cross it, we’re going to
shoot you.”
