Anthony Scaramucci is out as WH communication director

That did not take long

The NY Times is reporting that WH communication director Anthony Scaramucci is out. He was in his role for 10 days. Over that time he gave a shocking, vulgarity laced interview with the New Yorker, and may have contributed to the firing of the WH Chief of Staff Priebus. Little did he know, the incoming Chief of Staff Kelly (and the President), may not have liked to tone in his interview or in the direction he was going (speculation).

So he is out almost as fast as he came in.

I am pretty sure the last 10 days were probably the some of the best of times for someone who loved the spotlight, like "the Mooch". On the other hand, it was probably, most definitely, the worst of times, not only for what happened at the White House, but also for what happened in his own house (no need to go through them here).

So the draining of the swamp continues. Too bad the swamp is from within.

The USD is lower with the USDJPY trading a new session lows.
