Raise your hand if you knew that Omarosa was fired from the Clinton White House not once, not twice, not thrice, but four times before. Have barely seen anything on this: “She was asked to leave as quickly as possible, she was so disruptive.”

https://www.thecut.com/2017/12/omarosas-been-fired-from-the-white-house-before.html

In her 20s, she was a political appointee in the Clinton administration where, according to People, she held four jobs in two years.

During a 2004 Q&A in Washington, D.C., shortly after she gained national attention as a contestant on the first season of The Apprentice, Omarosa spoke somewhat bitterly of her time in government:

    I have done logistics and advance and event planning for the White House under the Gore staff … At 23, I got appointed to the White House. That was not a place to learn how to be a young professional. That’s a very difficult environment, because they don’t believe in training. They just kind of throw you in the fire.

According to a former Gore staffer, though, Omarosa never did logistics or advance work for the vice-president; she worked as a scheduling correspondent, responding to various invitations Gore received.

The staffer also said “she didn’t do her job, and it got everybody in trouble,” and was soon sent to work in the White House personnel office, which then transferred her again to the Commerce Department, where she held two different positions. In the last, she was reportedly “asked to leave as quickly as possible, she was so disruptive.”

“One woman wanted to slug her,” Cheryl Shavers, the former undersecretary for Technology at the Commerce Department told People.

So, Omarosa’s history in government has been checkered, to say the least.

A problem government has never figured out, but the military did a long time ago.

You don't send your problem children to another department (or assignment), you get rid of them (for everyone's good).

Several times in the USAF, we had a commander that did not want to terminate a problem airman.  When told they would keep this airman in their squadron forever, they changed their minds almost immediately.

Mine's up also.  Found this out some time ago after she was shown the door.  Good on General Kelly to rid this administration of such a problematic and incompetent blankity blank blank.

Of course Kelly wouldn't have fired her without Trump's approval. So far, the Potus has showed a real lack of quality staff picks. I wouldn't be surprised if she'd threatened something real or imagined to get in the door in the first place. I'm sure she and the future POTUS used each other to some extent, but there's no long term need for a football bat.
