Trumps personal assistant, John McEntee, was escorted out of the White House on Monday, two senior administration officials tell WSJ. The cause of the firing was an unspecified security issue, said a third W.H. official with knowledge of the situation.

are trump, Ivanka and Jared. I would love to see them in handcuffs. Grifters do not belong in the White House.

In his role in the White House, McEntee did tasks such as giving the president messages and making sure the clocks were correctly set for daylight-saving time.
