It's being reported that he is under investigation by the Department of Homeland Security. He was immediately hired by trump to work on his 2020 campaign.
Apparently I had the timing of this wrong. It was Monday night rather than Tuesday morning.
So the guy works for months & months without security clearance and suddenly it's imperative that he leave the premises immediately, no time to get his coat and other belongings, he needs to be gone now? What's up with that?
He had a security clearance, but it was revoked based on an investigation into serious financial crimes, according to the latest reports.
Apparently, McEntee, a former University of Connecticut football player and bodyguard, has a serious gambling problem.
If that's accurate -- and it sure would explain a sudden firing -- McEntee is not someone any intelligent Republican, Democrat or Independent would want having access to classified information and being privy to presidential communications.
In addition, considering the massive financial fraud allegations against indicted former Trump aides, it would be very stupid for the White House staff not to get rid of the guy.
