White House Chief of Staff John Kelly will remain in the job through at least Jan. 2 to ensure “a very peaceful and pragmatic transition” for his successor, the Washington Post reports.
“President Trump had announced Saturday that Kelly would exit his post by the end of the year… The process of selecting a successor was thrown wide open Sunday after Nick Ayers, Trump’s leading pick to take over the job, decided instead to depart the White House.”
