This must be an odd numbered day. On even numbered days they report he’s on his way out...

“Mr. Kelly told staff he agreed to the president’s request, one of the officials said.”

Mr. Kelly, who on Monday marked his one-year anniversary as chief of staff, had been widely expected to leave the White House some time this summer.

No!!
I like most of what Kelly does to balance the president’s approach and direction.
I don’t like that I am reading Gen. Kelly is helping to reverse many recent EPA changes. Or that Gen. Kelly is helping to remove those most loyal to Scott Pruitt.

Kelly is the one who forced out the trump believers in the white house, the NSC and other agencies. He is a globalist dirtbag. The sooner he leaves the better it is for trump.

From the coments at link:

To General Kelly, a good man:

December 23, 1776
These are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered...

...The present winter is worth an age, if rightly employed; but, if lost or neglected, the whole continent will partake of the evil; and there is no punishment that man does not deserve, be he who, or what, or where he will, that may be the means of sacrificing a season so precious and useful.

T. Paine

I have no problem with that fact. If Trump wants him, that is fine.
