Mulvaney Will Lose ‘Acting’ From Title

“The White House plans to drop the word ‘acting’ from Mick Mulvaney’s title, officially making him President Donald Trump’s third chief of staff,” Politico reports.

“It’s a recognition that Mulvaney has successfully navigated a tumultuous West Wing. The former South Carolina congressman and White House budget chief talks to the president multiple times a day and maintains good relations with Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner — Trump family members who also happen to be the White House’s two most powerful staffers — while giving them and other top staffers more leeway to operate than his predecessor, John Kelly.”
