The crackdown is reportedly part of a broader effort by Wiles to impose tighter operational discipline across the administration.

8^|

That shouldn’t be very difficult. This administration has zero operational discipline to start with.

That’s what cronyism and nepotism get you.

Guess who the probable leaker is, lmao:

During the sitdown, Wiles was asked whether she still backchannels to reporters, she joked: “And if I do, I get in trouble at the White House. I have a couple of friends in the reporter ranks, but we keep it to friendship.”

[–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 week ago

Ok, firstly anyone who works for that obese, stinking, stumbling barrel of orange child raping scabies does not have friends. At best they only have acquaintances that tolerate them.

So does she honestly think these reporter people are her friends? Or does she know that they are using her just as much as she's using them?

Is she the last remaining woman in the trump admin? I could have sworn she's much too old for him.

[–] joekar1990@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Technically I think Gabbard and loeffler are left.

[–] brem@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

Technically, they are right-wing.. but after enough drinks they are "FOR SEMPIS" into anal.

She was never a woman/temptation to him. Economically she's more like a man. A McMahon, if you will.

[–] brem@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

She has a younger smaller person that rides on her shoulders. Kind of like "Master Blaster" but eventually disposed of deep within a lake in Michigan...

Everyone forgets Linda McMahon

[–] notwhoyouthink@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 week ago

lol as much as I don’t like her or anyone else in this administration I do appreciate that she actually looks her age.

[–] ChunkMcHorkle@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

She always looks like a female Brett Kavanaugh to me, not sure why. Maybe she likes beer.

She should tell them she will cut off their supply of uppers just before an all nighter or their supplies of downers before they get a day off and need to finally get to sleep.

That whole house is a pharma party but with a free for all pharmacy on site supplied by the government.

[–] quarkquasar@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

We've got a bunch of white, nepo drug addicts destroying DEI because it's "bad".

[–] Mycatiskai@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago

If only someone could get a few bad pills into the White House. See how many staffers would be out sick if the Adderall got replaces with a fast acting laxative.

What a cunt.

[–] brem@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

So, I don't know who this is; but it definitely seems like the sort o' biatch that spreads verbal herpes (based on the haircut, & judgemental frown.)

[[Yes, I understand they take a burst of photos and choose the grumpy one, but you'll never catch me frowning like a cartoon villain. I physically cannot make THAT face.]]

[–] starik@lemmy.zip 9 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

The president of the United States’ chief of staff and his campaign manager for his successful 2024 campaign.

One of the people most responsible for the current state of the world.

[–] brem@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

She's been chief of staff this whole term or some replacement (seems to be common in ass-kissing society)? I hear about his entire cabinet on almost a daily basis, surprised to be unfamiliar with this specific Disney Villain.

She seems like the kind of lady who hoards cats but before slumber each night, threatens each individually on the consequences of eating her face.

[–] starik@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

This whole time. She doesn’t want to be famous. A pure sociopath. Or maybe the purest example of the banality of evil.

[–] BillyClark@piefed.social 3 points 1 week ago

Since Trump repeatedly touted that his administration is the most transparent administration in history, I can't help but feel mildly taken aback by this news. Trump's chief of staff has obviously gone rogue. /s
