Things at the White House ‘just got real’.
Scaramucci is a brawler, and Priebus is just now learning exactly what that means.
Because the Mooch has a score to settle with Priebus.
Reince spent the last 6 months looking for ways to keep Scaramucci out of the White House position.
Since Priebus has done so little to manage the MASSIVE leaks problem, Scarmucci just unloaded on him, calling him part of the problem.
Even Bannon took a beating in his verbal blast.
It started when someone illegally leaked confidential details of his financial disclosure statements to Politico, and he was reacting to that.
There was a tweet calling for an investigation, and it tagged Priebus. That caused a lot of speculation.
But then, the Comms director blew the lid off in a taped conversation with the New Yorker’s Ryan Lizza, during which he called out the Chief of Staff as a leaker.
When the reporter knew about a dinner with Trump, Scaramucci, and Hannity that wasn’t supposed to be publicized, Scaramucci asked that he reveal the source.
Not surprisingly… no dice. And the Comms director went off.
They’ll all be fired by me. I fired one guy the other day. I have three to four people I’ll fire tomorrow. I’ll get to the person who leaked that to you. Reince Priebus – if you want to leak something – he’ll be asked to resign very shortly….Reince is a f***ing paranoid schizophrenic, a paranoiac. [In Reince’s voice] ‘Oh, Bill Shine is coming in. Let me leak the f***ing thing and see if I can c***-block these people the way I c***-blocked Scaramucci for six months.
…I’m not Steve Bannon, I’m not trying to suck my own c***. I’m not trying to build my own brand off the f***ing strength of the president. I’m here to serve the country.” The Mooch then went off on Priebus again, and explained that he had told Trump that Priebus would try to hit him through leaks.
He continued:
What I want to do is I want to f***ing kill all the leakers and I want to get the President’s agenda on track so we can succeed for the American people….O.K., the Mooch showed up a week ago,” he said. “This is going to get cleaned up very shortly, O.K.? Because I nailed these guys. I’ve got digital fingerprints on everything they’ve done through the F.B.I. and the fucking Department of Justice…. Well, the felony, they’re gonna get prosecuted, probably, for the felony. — DailyMail
This photo captures the mutual contempt REALLY well.

As for Anthony’s OWN Twitter account?
He’s reigned it in (a little bit). Maybe.
But hasn’t offered an apology.
I sometimes use colorful language. I will refrain in this arena but not give up the passionate fight for @realDonaldTrump's agenda. #MAGA

The gloves are off. We’re looking at total war in the White House.
Who will be the last one standing?
It’s anybody’s guess.
