Video: Reince Priebus Is Forced Out as Trump’s Chief of Staff

Reince Priebus, who has served as President Trump’s chief of staff for six months, has been pushed out of the White House. Michael D. Shear, a reporter for The New York Times, explains what this shake-up means.

Another attempt at top down command.
The national economy is not better though the coastal cities are roaring as they did in the twenties.

Tracking the Roller Coaster Relationship of Reince Priebus and Donald Trump

The now-former White House chief of staff was one of the first Republican officials to take Trump seriously, but his relationship with the president had been rocky.

"Sean Spicer, the White House press secretary who was close to Mr. Priebus, resigned the day that the president announced he had hired Mr. Scaramucci to run the communications office.
The president became convinced that Mr. Priebus was not strong enough to run the White House operation, and told him two weeks ago that he wanted to make a change, according to White House officials. Intrigued at the idea of putting a general in charge, Mr. Trump offered the job to Mr. Kelly."

The staff keep trying to grow the government.

The Senate’s ‘Lowest Common Denominator’ Health Debate

It has come to this: Republicans are looking for any kind of a health care bill that they can pass and claim as a victory.

Any Republican victory would have quickly destroyed Obama-care.
Obama-care may be "nibbled to death by ducks" though that is not likely.

NPR is worried.

The Upshot

Switching Careers Is Hard. It Doesn’t Have to Be.

Many of the skills needed in fading jobs are more applicable to growing jobs than it might first appear.

What employers want is cheap and skilled.
Skilled labor is not cheap.

Skills require time and attention.
Investments need a positive return.
