Scaramucci Insiders: Papa Mooch Deserves Our Sympathy

The Mooch is sacrificing his family life to save America and serve at the pleasure of President Trump.

Or so people closest to him will tell you.

In a case of horrifically unfortunate timing, Anthony Scaramucci, the new White House Communications Director, began his job on the very week his son was born two weeks prematurely. The infant remains in a NICU. People close to Scaramucci are incensed that the New York Post reported the name of the hospital. According to sources, the little bambino named James weighs 5 pounds and 7 ounces and will likely remain at the hospital for another month.

“Would he rather be with his baby? Of course,” a spy tells The Mirror. “But he’s sacrificing his willingness to see his baby and we’re trashing him for it. We should be sympathizing. We should thank him. This is a really wealthy man who is earning pennies to serve.”

Life is comprised of highs and lows. Three weeks ago, Mooch’s estranged wife Deidre Ball filed for divorce on July 6, as reported by New York Post‘s Page Six. She was nine months preggers. Apart from the infant, they have another child together. Their 3-year-old Nicholas was born in 2014, some 6 months before he and Ball wed.

Those closest to the new top comms aide say he’s being stretched beyond belief.

In addition to a new baby, Papa Mooch has a new 22-hour a day job at the White House. He’s also searching for a place to live in Washington and is staying at an undisclosed hotel.

So what’s a new pop to do?

“Everyone who works in the White House is sacrificing,” says a source familiar with the inner workings of Scaramucci’s mind.

A big reason why Scaramucci wasn’t present at the time of his son’s birth is because of the alleged verbal abuse he receives from his wife. She reportedly “mocks” him for being beholden to Trump. Suffice it to say relations between these two are like icicles in Siberia.

“They’re not getting along well,” a source explained.

People around him try to avoid the hot topics of the baby and the future ex-wife.

“He is just under siege everyday,” the observer said. “I want to talk about things that don’t make him go crazy. I don’t want him in panic mode.”

This means “good news” and “solutions to problems.”

Those around the Mooch are trying to boost him up, not bring him down.

“The first week in the White House is a rough week,” the spy said. “I want to help him, not bring up unsupportive things.”

On July 28, Scaramucci sent out a plea for sympathy for his family.

Scaramucci has three children from a previous relationship.

If he and Deidre are seriously splitsville, this will be his second divorce.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
