Mira Ricardel, who fell out with the First Lady when she attempted to extort seats on her Africa junket, has left the building:
Top National Security Council official Mira Ricardel is exiting her post after an extraordinary, high-profile clash with first lady Melania Trump.The Trump White House is truly a complete sh%$ show.
The White House said in a statement Wednesday that Ricardel will “transition to a new role within the administration,” but did not specify her new job.
“The president is grateful for Ms. Ricardel’s continued service to the American people and her steadfast pursuit of his national security priorities,” said White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
The announcement capped off a tense day of speculation about Ricardel's future after the first lady's office took the unusual step of publicly calling for her ouster. It appears to be a compromise solution, since national security adviser John Bolton reportedly fought to save Ricardel, his top deputy.
