Giuliani's son loses West Wing access
Source: Axios
Several months ago, Donald Trump ordered the promotion of Rudy Giulianis son. But instead of getting promoted, he has lost his West Wing pass.
Details: Trump ordered junior White House staffer Andrew Giulianis promotion after dining at Mar-a-Lago with Rudy Giuliani, who subsequently became the presidents lawyer. He directed his body man, Jordan Karem, to ensure Kelly promoted Andrew to special assistant to the president, according to sources familiar with the conversation.

Yes, but: We're told that chief of staff John Kelly did not follow through on the order, and Andrew has not been promoted.
* Kelly and others, including Office of Public Liaison director Justin Clark, won't promote Andrew because they think he "subverts the chain of command" and claim he had other issues in the workplace that they weren't happy about, according to two sources familiar with the situation.
* According to a source familiar, Kelly took away Andrew's blue staff pass about two weeks ago, revoking his West Wing access. He now only has a green pass, which means he cant enter the West Wing without an escort.

BTW: Did Rudy forget what day it was and call ICE to take away the kid's nanny?

But I wonder what he did to rile up John "I lie about black congresswomen" Kelly.
