First Lady Melania Trump is beefing up her East Wing staff, adding three new hires.
(To do what you may very well ask?)
Reagan Thompson, a former staffer for the National Security Council, was named director of policy under Melania Trump, tasked with overseeing the first lady's “policies and initiatives,” according to a White House statement. Thompson, a Facebook alum, focused on Middle Eastern foreign policy at the NSC.
(Reagan will be "director of policy"? Perhaps policy on when or if the FLOTUS should post selfies? Appropriate dressing when visiting disaster sites?
New policy: No spike heels and sunglasses when visiting areas devastated by hurricanes and mudslides.)
The first lady selected Justin Caporale, who worked on outreach and advance operations for the Trump campaign, for the role of director of operations. Caporale’s duties, the White House said, will “include managing the day-to-day logistical operations of the East Wing, focusing on events, and planning foreign and domestic travel.”
(Justin will probably have a lot of "executive time" since Mellie, doen't go anywhere and no one comes to visit her.)
Annie LeHardy will also move from the West Wing press office to serve as Melania Trump’s communications coordinator.
(Talk about unnecessary. Why would someone who is fluent in seven languages need a communications director?)
