Trump announces Mark Meadows to replace Mick Mulvaney as White House chief of staff
President Trump made a surprise announcement on Friday night that Rep. Mark Meadows, R-N.C., would become his new White House chief of staff, replacing acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney.
"I am pleased to announce that Congressman Mark Meadows will become White House Chief of Staff. I have long known and worked with Mark, and the relationship is a very good one," Trump tweeted.
Meadows has become one of Trump's most loyal defenders on Capitol Hill, particularly during the monthslong impeachment battle that ultimately ended with an acquittal in February. In a statement, Meadows said it was an "honor" to selected by President Trump.
"This President and his administration have a long list of incredible victories they've delivered to the country during this first term, with the best yet to come -- and I look forward to helping build on that success and staying in the fight for the forgotten men and women of America," he said.
Meadows said Mulvaney did a "great job," and he also thanked his constituents in western North Carolina.
"In particular, I want to recognize my friend Mick Mulvaney. Mick is smart, principled, and as tough a fighter you'll find in Washington, D.C. He did a great job leading the President's team through a tremendous period of accomplishment over the last year-plus," the lawmaker said.
"Lastly, I want to thank the people of western North Carolina," he added. "Serving you in Congress has been the honor of my life. It may be in a different role, but I'll continue working every day to deliver results for you -- and main street Americans all over the country -- in the months and years to come."
Meadows, 60, had announced in December that he planned to leave Congress at the end of his current term. He has represented North Carolina's 11th Congressional District since 2013. He also chaired the House Freedom Caucus from 2017 until earlier this year, when he was succeeded by Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz.
It was unclear if Mulvaney will remain as head of the OMB or if the department's deputy director, Russell Vought, will assume the role.
The White House did not immediately respond to Fox News' request for comment.
nice baloney sandwich
Meadows is an awesome freedom fighter. He’s a great American and so is President Trump.
The House Ethics Committee found Rep. Mark Meadows failed to take “prompt and decisive action” to handle alleged sexual harassment in his congressional office, according to a Friday report.
The committee also found Meadows violated House rules by failing to take action to ensure his office was not engaging in discrimination.
Crazy/Stupid Republican of the Day: Mark Meadows- 2019 Update
Perhaps his most infamous moment, though, came during Congressional testimony over healthcare plans for the Affordable Care Act, where he raged against the idea that men should have to pay an equal amount for insurance plans as women, and they have the nerve to also ask that they get maternity coverage on their insurance, when he doesn’t need it
Why was he selected? Because he is a racist, misogynist, and corrupt to the core. Birds of a feather so to speak.

Mark Meadows and the Undisclosed Dinosaur Property
Rump’s Whitehouse ...
Well he turned out to be better than any of the other Republicans running against him in 2016. He got a lot of undesirables such as Bill Crystal to leave the GOP in exchange for normal middle and working clsss people from the heartland. Crippling the GOP establishment was well worth it. That he beat the wicked witch Hillary was simply wonderful.
Yes indeed. Meadows is awesome. Awesomely awesome. In fact, Meadows may be the most awesome 'thing' the Trump has ever snatched.
I wonder how long he will last. If Trump does not axe him first, Meadows may walk due to dealing with Trump on a personal basis now. It likely won't be too long.
“Congressman Meadows has been one of the most effective advocates for the MAGA movement for years now,” Donald Trump, Jr., President Trump’s eldest son, told Breitbart News. “There are some major battles ahead and I can’t think of anyone more equipped to fight alongside the President for the future of our country.”
“Meadows is cut from the same cloth as the President; he’s a fighter and will do what it takes to win,” Cliff Sims, a former Trump White House official and outside ally of the president, added. “He’s the perfect choice to lead the White House staff through election season. A brilliant choice by President Trump.”
“Mark has great political instincts and, to put it bluntly, is just a total killer,” Andy Surabian, a GOP strategist and also a former White House official, added. “He’s exactly who President Trump needs by his side in an election year.”
“Mark being chief of staff is a massive win for the MAGA movement,” Charlie Kirk, the founder and president of Turning Point USA, told Breitbart News.
Not sure, but I suspect the 'rabid GOP Trump klan' is also in a few ways, like the Trump family themselves, afflicted with Russian and Saudi money sticking to them they'd rather not have to explain. And this may explain why so many of them are hanging onto the handrails as a typhoon is hitting them straight on from the port side.
I think you are right, bb-1. Trump uses people he knows are totally loyal to him, but, if the pee on the wrong side of the toilet he will give them the axe. However, Trump really does not need a reason to get rid of them, so they know they are treading on thin ice from the start.
Meadows has his head so far up Trump's ass his breath smells like KFC.
