White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci on Thursday called on chief of staff Reince Priebus to explain why he’s not a leaker.
Scaramucci called in to CNN and compared the two as brothers like Cain and Abel:
“If Reince wants to explain he’s not a leaker, let him do that. But let me tell you about myself. I’m a straight shooter and I’ll go right to the heart of the matter. Now, if you want to talk about the chief of staff, we have had odds, we have had differences. When I said we were brothers from the podium, that’s because we’re rough on each other. Some brothers are like Cain and Abel. Other brothers can fight with each other and get along. I don’t know if this is repairable or not.”

On Friday Reince Priebus was fired.
It looks like Scaramucci wasn’t kidding.
