Scaramucci Friend (and Reported Publicist) Suggests Priebus Mistress in Twitter Rant
mediaite ^

Posted on 07/30/2017 7:48:01 AM PDT by springwater13

Arthur Schwartz, a friend of Anthony Scaramucci who has been referred to as his publicist, warned Reince Priebus that he would “start dropping oppo” on the former White House chief of staff, adding “Mistress much?” in a Sunday morning tweet.

The tweet was in response to a HuffPost story, which Schwartz presumably believes was sourced from Reince, that detailed Priebus’s concerns with Scaramucci’s business dealings.

Schwartz added that he would be happy to start “trashing [Priebus] in the press” again.

The tweets were quickly noticed by CNN’s Jake Tapper, who retweeted them noting they came from Scaramucci’s publicist. Schwartz has been quoted in a number of Fox News and New York Post stories as a representative of the now-White House communications director.

Schwartz replied to Tapper with a number of tweets denying that he ever worked for Scaramucci, claiming he was incorrectly identified in the stories. He also threatened legal action against the CNN anchor.

Some guy no one’s ever heard of is referred to as “a friend” of Scaramucci and insinuates something (well, supposedly) about someone who’s already quit the administration.

I don’t really know how much lower the media can get to make a news report about less than nothing.

Dear Mooch. We look forward to you going after DWS with even greater vigor. If you don’t, pack your crap.

That’s okay. You would think Rancid’s mistress is a guy, because she hasn’t had his surgery yet.

Oh, leaks good when our side does it but bad when the other side does it. This is embarrassing, it's starting to look like Trump Administration Trailer Park Edition.

This is NOT a leak, unless you believe personal rumor and conduct are State secrets.

Not at all. As far as I can tell, the guy operates out of the limbic system, leaving his prefrontal cortex largely undisturbed. Disappointing.

More Mediot bait has been cast on the media waters, and the mediots are going after the chum again.

Sorry to confuse you I was referring to this gem of yours.

Actually, this is telegraphing to his GOPe friends that there are people in the Administration who will publicly leak your most personal crud if you cause problems.

I am all for this.

You can be disappointed only if you ever expected anything different.

On the one hand Priebus seems like a nice enough person, on the other hand he has enabled the sorts of people who have turned the U.S. into a scavanger economy which is very far from Trump’s vision of Making America Great Again.

It’s time to let this go. Rinse Repeatus has been kicked to the curb, and there’s no need to keep kicking.

Now is the time to take down the other moles.

I saw a report that this is happening because Mooch believes that Priebus is the one leaking financial information about Mooch’s business.
