Trump finds himself increasingly isolated inside his own West Wing – an angry
and mistrustful figure facing down an intense stretch of his presidency with
fewer friends than ever at his side.
A confluence of revelations, investigations, and scandals has robbed Trump of
the counsel of many of those with whom he’s been closest during his still-brief
political career. He now has multiple major positions to fill inside his West
Wing, even as he clashes – publicly and privately – with everyone from his
chief of staff to his attorney general to his secretary of state.
Chief of staff John Kelly seemed to reference the dark mood inside the White
House on Thursday, joking that he never thought he’d leave his old job as
secretary of homeland security.
“The last thing I wanted to do is walk away from one of the great honors of my
life,” Kelly said, “but I did something wrong and God punished me, I guess.”
The departure of White House communications director Hope Hicks puts an
exclamation point on a period of turmoil unusual even for the Trump White
House. Hicks’ portfolio is vast, and she stands out, not just for her relative
youth, but for the close relationship she developed with the president.
She has served as a confidante, and Trump translator - a combination that could
come only through long and loyal service to the president that began before he
even launched his campaign.
More broadly, the concern among Trump allies is that the departures suggest an
unraveling of the White House discipline that helped deliver the president a
massive tax cut – easily his biggest legislative victory – as 2017 wound to a
close.
In its wake have come two months lost to infighting and staff turmoil that
remind some White House veterans of last summer, when the revolving door
cycled through names including Reince Priebus, Sean Spicer, and Anthony
Scaramucci.
2018 began with the self-immolation of Steve Bannon, the president’s onetime
chief strategist, whose comments about Trump in an explosive book led to a
public breakup with Trump that’s left him politically sidelined.
Since then, things have only snowballed. Revelations about former White
House staff secretary Rob Porter’s domestic violence accusations - that he
denies- forced his departure. It appears to have also hastened Hicks’ exit, given
her personal relationship with Porter and her attempts to control messaging
around the episode.
The Porter mess also put a spotlight on security clearances for White House
aides. Kelly issued new directives that cost the president’s son-in-law, Jared
Kushner, of his top-secret clearances. New revelations about his apparent
mixing of business and official meetings have further sidelined Kushner and his
wife, Ivanka.
Scaramucci came out publicly this week to blame Kelly for ruling “by fear and
intimidation.”
“The morale is terrible” in the West Wing, he said on CNN Thursday. “I predict
more departures.”
Meanwhile, the president’s private and public rage directed at Attorney General
Jeff Sessions has taken a turn for the worse in recent days. And that comes as
reports emerge that special counsel Robert Mueller is interested in the
circumstances surrounding Trump’s apparent efforts to push Sessions out last
summer.
Trump has been known to thrive on chaos. But unlike past White House crises,
he’ll have fewer familiar faces to control his impulses, commiserate with, and
plot his next steps.
The search for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 by a U.S. company will likely end
in June, a Malaysian official said, as families of passengers marked the fourth
anniversary of the plane's disappearance with renewed hope that the world's
biggest aviation mystery will be solved.
Malaysia inked a "no cure, no fee" deal with Houston, Texas-based Ocean
Infinity in January to resume the hunt for the plane, a year after the official
search in the southern Indian Ocean by Malaysia, Australia and China was
called off.
Ocean Infinity started the search on Jan. 22 and has 90 search days to look for
the plane. Malaysia's civil aviation chief, Azharuddin Abdul Rahman, said the
90-day term will spread over a few months because the search vessel has to
refuel in Australia and bad weather could be a factor.
Azharuddin said Saturday the search is going smoothly and is expected to end
by mid-June.
"The whole world, including the next of kin, have (new) hope to find the plane
for closure," he told reporters at a remembrance event at a shopping mall near
Kuala Lumpur. "For the aviation world, we want to know what exactly
happened to the plane."
The official search was extremely difficult because no transmissions were
received from the aircraft after its first 38 minutes of flight. Systems designed to
automatically transmit the flight's position failed to work after this point,
according to a final report issued in January 2017 by the Australian Transport
Safety Board.
Family members lit candles on a stage Saturday and observed a moment of
silence during the three-hour event. Most are split over whether the search will
be fruitful.
"It doesn't renew (any hope) because I also have to be realistic. It has been four
years," said Intan Maizura Othman, whose husband was a flight attendant on the
plane. She was pregnant when the plane disappeared and attended the event
with her now 4-year-old son.
Jiang Hui of China, whose mother was on board the plane, said that he was
grateful for Ocean Infinity's courage to mount the search, but that he hopes it
will not be the end if the mission fails. He proposed for a public fund to be set
up to continue the search.
"Without a search, there will be no truth," Jiang said.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Hindu nationalist party ended 25 years
of uninterrupted communist party rule in a northeastern state and consolidated
its position in two other states in key provincial elections.
Saturday's impressive win is expected to boost the prospects of Modi's
Bharatiya Janata Party when it seeks a second term in national elections next
year. The BJP has been riding a wave of rising Hindu nationalism in the
country.
As his supporters beat drums and danced with joy, Modi tweeted that the people
of India were reposing their faith in the positive and development-oriented
agenda of his party.
"People do not have the time or respect for negative, disruptive and
disconnected politics of any kind," he said.
With results announced for all 59 seats in Tripura's state legislature, the BJP had
won a big majority to form a government on its own in the state, replacing the
Communist Party of India (Marxist), or CPI (M). It also looked like it could win
a majority with support from other groups in Meghalaya and Nagaland states.
The BJP won 35 seats in Tripura's state legislature against the CPI (M)'s 16
seats, according to India's Election Commission. The remaining eight seats went
to a regional group, the Indigenous People's Front of Tripura.
The voting was a test for Rahul Gandhi, the 47-year-old heir to India's Nehru-
Gandhi political dynasty, who took over as the main opposition Congress party's
president from his mother, Sonia Gandhi, in December.
Modi's BJP is currently governing 19 of India's 29 states, compared with five by
the Congress party. A coalition of communist parties and some other groups are
ruling southern Kerala state, while small regional groups are heading the other
states.
The CPI (M) was facing decimation for a second time in recent years, with
dissension in its ranks and no young leadership emerging. It was ousted from
power from its main bastion, West Bengal state, in 2011 by a regional group
that ended 34 years of its continuous rule there.
"Both states have one fact in common: the left (communist) rule for decades
that had made the cadres apathetic and almost bourgeois in their approach to
government and politics," said Seema Mustafa, a political analyst who runs the
Centre for Policy Analysis think-tank in New Delhi.
Neeraja Choudhury, a political analyst, said that despite ruling Tripura state for
25 years, the CPI (M) failed to create jobs for young people and build more
hospitals and other infrastructure.
"The BJP's vote share in the state has shot up to 40 percent from a mere 2.1
percent in 2013," she said.
Three suspects in an alleged plot to rob and kill armored guards were taken
down in a dramatic sting operation by dozens of officers caught on police video
in the middle of I-95 in Martin County, Florida.
According to the Martin County Sheriff's Office, the three men were planning to
murder two armored car employees in Port St. Lucie, Florida, and make off with
millions of dollars in cash.
The police operation took two years to complete, authorities said, and was done
in conjunction with the Martin County Sheriff’s Office, Palm Beach County
Sheriff’s Office, Port St. Lucie Police, St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office and the
FBI. The take down took place at 9 a.m. on Feb. 20.
Police helicopter video shows dozens of vehicles swarm the suspects on I-95
just hours before authorities say the suspects were to pull off the heist. Police
forced the three suspects out of their vehicle, arresting Daryl Canady, Alger Lee
Ellison and Martiavius Leon Williams.
A police affidavit says the trio were to rob an armored car outside a PNC Bank,
kill the employees and then had planned another similar robbery and killing.
One guard working on the truck was in on the plan to take the truck's $4
million, the affidavit states. It also says the three men competed a "dry run" of
the robbery five days earlier, however, a confidential informant tipped police
off to the operation.
"So you see in the video actually we have cars in front, cars in the back,
vehicles on the side, and we just slowly tightened the noose, stopped the
vehicle, and get them out. Nobody got hurt," Martin County Sheriff William D.
Snyder said.
Donald Trump's campaign had its fair share of staff shake-ups before the
election and that continued into his administration.
Now more than a year into the Trump administration, more than a dozen notable
members of both the White House and the administration at large have left their
posts.
Here are the departures of White House staffers and other administration
officials, starting with the most recent:
Hicks was Trump's longest-serving aide when she announced that she will
resign her post in the coming weeks.
Her announcement came the day after she was interviewed by the House
Intelligence Committee during which she said she had occasionally told white
lies on Trump's behalf, according to a source familiar with the interview. That
said, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said that her decision to resign
was not related to the interview, saying that it's "something she's been thinking
about for a while."
After the news broke, Trump said he "will miss having her by my side."
"Hope is outstanding and has done great work for the last three years. She is as
smart and thoughtful as they come, a truly great person," the president said in a
statement provided to the media by Sanders.
Porter resigned amid multiple allegations of domestic violence from two ex-
wives. Porter has denied the accusations.
While senior White House staff were aware for months of the domestic abuse
allegations by Porter’s ex-wives, they were not aware of the full extent of those
allegations, senior administration officials told ABC News.
Even as news of the scandal broke, White House officials initially defended
Porter, with chief of staff John Kelly calling him a “man of true integrity and
honor.”
Deputy press secretary Raj Shah said Trump did not know that Porter was
operating under a temporary clearance during his time at the White House and
said the president was "saddened" by the news and for all the individuals
involved.
She was fired three times from various seasons of "The Apprentice," but former
reality star and Trump confidante Manigault-Newman said that she resigned,
denying reports that she was fired and had to be removed from the White
House.
A White House official said in a statement on Dec. 13, 2017, that Manigault-
Newman resigned “to pursue other opportunities.”
Manigault-Newman spoke about her departure on "Good Morning America" the
next day, saying that she and Kelly "had a very straightforward discussion of
concerns that I had, issues that I raised and, as a result, I resigned."
Manigault-Newman, 43, stayed on until Jan. 20, 2018.
She was in charge of outreach to the leaders of HBCUs (historically black
colleges and universities) and also oversaw the president’s visit to the
Smithsonian’s African American Museum in Washington, D.C. But Manigault's
day-to-day duties could not be pinpointed and, according to Politico, she used
the White House as a backdrop for her 39-person bridal party to take wedding
photos.
Powell left the White House in early 2018.
The announcement of her departure came on Dec. 8, 2017, and her final day of
work in the administration was not been publicly released.
Powell has been a key player in the administration's Middle East policy, with
senior adviser Jared Kushner releasing a statement saying that she "has been a
valued member of the Israeli-Palestinian peace team."
White House press secretary Sanders released a statement saying Powell has
been "a key, trusted adviser" and "has always planned to serve one year before
returning home to New York, where she will continue to support the president's
agenda and work on Middle East policy."
The kind words didn't end there, as national security adviser H.R. McMaster
also released a statement asserting that "she is one of the most talented and
effective leaders with whom I have ever served."
The Associated Press reported in mid-February that Powell is going to teach
seminars and study groups as a non-resident senior fellow at Harvard
University. And on Feb. 27, CNBC reported that a Goldman Sachs memo said
that she would be returning to the bank.
