It turns out there's no love left for Anthony Scaramucci in President Donald Trump's White House. According to Bloomberg News, the former communications director is on a list of fired employees who are not allowed to enter the grounds without special approval.
"The Mooch" claimed Thursday that he wasn't blocked. Friday, however, the White House schooled him with an official noting he's on a list of fired employees to consider denying.
Since being ousted at the White House, Scaramucci has flipped back and forth on his former boss with both excuses for Trump's behavior as well as criticism. Yet, the White House sees him as a staffer who left “under adverse circumstances.” As such he was placed on an "administrative exclusion list." Future appointments would be weighted on a "case by case basis."
Previously, the White House denied that Scaramucci was on a blacklist, but the New York hedge funder provided Bloomberg with emails proving he was denied access to the complex. The secret service agent in charge of appointments and scheduling told him he is "administratively excluded from entering the complex at this time (not allowed access).”
Another White House official, however, explained that Scaramucci would be treated as any other former staffer and if he had legitimate and official business he would be grated access. The official said that anyone who failed a background check, was fired or asked to resign falls on lists for any president and it is not unique to Trump.
Scaramucci thinks that chief of staff John Kelly, who he's been critical of, is blocking his access to the president.
"Does the president want to lose everyone because of General Jackass?" Scaramucci said Thursday to Bloomberg. He went on to warn there would be "a further evacuation of talent."
