Sean Spicer stole a mini-fridge from White House staffers

Unfortunately, Spicer went about procuring a fridge in a manner that could best be described as ill-advised. A Wall Street Journal report detailed the long and winding road to Spicer's high-profile resignation Friday and began with an anecdote that showed the press secretary hatching a plan to steal a fridge from junior staffers.

Wrote Michael C. Bender of the Journal: "[Spicer] dispatched a top aide to a nearby executive office building where junior research employees are crammed into a room, surviving on Lean Cuisine frozen lunches. Mr. Spicer wants your icebox, the aide said, according to people familiar with the incident. They refused to give it up."

Now, here is the moment Spicer could have shifted gears. It's already (as the kids say) a bad look to demand the workers underneath you give up their icebox. Kudos to them for turning down a senior staffer. But Spicer wasn't satisfied. There is a Walmart about 1.5 miles from the White House where the press secretary could have bought a mini-fridge (for as little as $60!). Instead he waited. Then he pounced.

Wrote Bender in the Journal: "So Mr. Spicer waited until sundown—after his young staffers had left—to take matters into his own hands. He was spotted by a fellow White House official lugging the icebox down the White House driveway after 8 p.m."

New Trump comm head Scaramucci admits he’s deleting tweets critical of president — in the name of ‘transparency’



Switching from alternative facts to alternative history, new White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci admitted on Saturday that he is deleting personal tweets that are critical of President Trump and some of his policies

According to Scaramucci, he is doing so for “transparency” and because his views have suddenly evolved after landing the White House gig.

Writing on Twitter, Scaramucci stated, “Full transparency: I’m deleting old tweets. Past views evolved & shouldn’t be a distraction. I serve @POTUS agenda & that’s all that matters.”

Along with tweets advocating for tougher gun control, Scaramucci also took some shots at Trump over the years (see below) and climate change deniers:
